If I see one more candidate in a sweater...

[Paragon]

Take off the jacket, loosen the tie, unbutton the collar, roll up the sleeves, etc. if you want to look casual.

Sweaters are for The Cosby Show. Thank you.


(On edit: I know it's cold. Therefore, most appearances are done indoors.)

1. Do you know how damn cold it is in NH right now?

The wind chill is like 20 something below. It's freaking cold! I imagine Iowa is pretty cold too. Sweaters are appropriate when it's cold. :shrug:

3. When I first went to Iowa one January, the wind chill was

40 degrees below zero. There were a couple of feet of snow outside. It was cold outside, inside, and everywhere.

2. What about the deep freeze going on?

I'm wearing a sweater right now and I'm not on the Cosby show. :)

There is a practical matter of being cold. I'd rather the candidates stay well with a nice warm sweater.

The rest of it is just media hype.

4. sweaters

are warm and give an accessible appearance.

5. The Dowdisation of politics

Can we stop talking about what the candidates are wearing? Its irrelevancies like these that keeps idiots like Dowd and Tweety in business.

[Nay]

13. THANK YOU, Uzybone. I am so sick of hearing about

what everybody is wearing. Especially if it is something as normal as a sweater, for God's sake.

And although I think Laura Bush could choose more flattering clothing, I don't care what SHE wears, either, and I don't spend 5 seconds on the thought.

All this business about clothes is irrelevant, especially when we are talking about SWEATERS.

15. Was she the one so troubled by Gore's earth tones?

I agree... this is literally the opposite of important.

6. Done

[StClone]

7. He wears argyle socks too!

Man what a loser. Vote for Bush he wears $5000 suits!

[in_cog_ni_to]

8. I LIKE sweaters!

Besides that, it's DAMN COLD in NH right now.

[SayitAintSo]

9. It's cold as a witch's titty out there for crissakes !!!

Focus on the substance, forget about the form, especially in sub zero weather .... :)

[Closer]

10. I think Dean

looks so cute in his sweater.

[windansea]

11. are you guys reduced to sweater attacks now??

heh heh...we know you love those beefy forearms

[leyton]

12. Hey...

I wear a sweater every day. (Literally.) And they're pretty warm (that bitter Carolina cold can get to you). Let's not diss sweaters.

[Padraig18]

14. Dear God, its COLD in Iowa and NH!

I'd think they were goofy if the DIDN'T dress warmly, frankly. :)

[bearfartinthewoods]

16. oh please....

[NashVegas]

17. Honey Get Used to It
