"She's now wearing a Certified Pre-owned Pants Suit"

[Stinky The Clown]

Letterman in reference to the now highly in debt Hillary Clinton.

Good one.

[madeline_con]

1. She's spent all that $$?! n/t

[NYCGirl]

2. Yep, the Clinton campaign is in debt to the tune of $20 million.

That's some tune.

14. More like a whole opera....

[L0oniX]

3. This is a more appropriate attire

[Cheap_Trick]

39. for quite a few of her supporters as well...n/t

4. As an Obama fan, I must say, the fashion thing must suck for

a female candidate. A man can wear a suit, change the tie, and he's good to go. A woman has to wear different stuff (I may be very wrong here) I'm just happy I get to wear jeans and T=shirts for my job.

[Stephanie]

10. No, you're right. She has rarely repeated a pantsuit.

I'd like to know who's styling her. They're doing a good job.

[Emillereid]

11. I don't think a woman has to wear a different suit or even wear makeup for that matter.

I think Hillary would look better if she just wore simple black or dark blue suits like the guys. There is nothing that dictates that she has to wear those awful, weird colored pantsuits. If anyone gave her flack she could say that the demands of the campaign make it necessary to simplify her wardrobe. And not all women politicians are totally made up all the time - think Golda Meir - she wasn't doused in rough and lipstick all the time.

[dorktv]

16. Not all women can wear dark colours though.

I cannot apparently but I prefer to wear those colours at work-seems simplist but cannot do that according to my staff.

And Golda Meir had a very different situation going on.

[sakura]

18. But she looks good in dark colors...

Particularly navy blue:

[grasswire]

19. that's a great photo

I wonder how old it is.

[Raine]

20. Gotta agree

the dark colors look good. Some of those colors like yellow that she wears look awful, she should stick to dark blue, greys etc.

[helderheid]

35. great photo

[sammytko]

32. I agree with you

She looks great in navy and dk brown. She should go ahead and wear the same colors. I was in the Air Force for 22 yrs and I loved the "uniform" look. I kind of still practice that in my retired life. Makes it so easy to get dressed for the day!

5. Feith is on TDS. The spin is fascinating. nt

[sellitman]

6. Nice job on the Clinton supporter outreach program

You and your fellow poster are to be commended.

:sarcasm:

[Stinky The Clown]

8. A: It ...... was ...... a ..... fucking ..... joke

Lighten up, already.

B: Your sarcasm is lost on me. The Obama supporters who try to kick my ass for saying *anything* about **their** guy are much tougher than you are.

C: Who is my fellow poster? Not sure I get your drift. You *were* drifting ... right?

[sellitman]

25. Your clowning around is working against Obama here on DU.

A) It was a stupid joke that didn't bear repeating. All it does is piss HRC supporters off.

B) More than sarcasm is lost on you it seems. The whole world isn't always out to "kick your ass". It's not about you, believe it or not.

C) I left out the "S" (posters) But you knew that for you obviously weren't "drifting".

D) Now I remember why you were on my ignore list last year. Congrats you are back on. You may reply with one of your snarky replies but unfortunately.....I won't see it. I bet I'm not the first to have you "disappear" from DU. I bet I won't be the last to do it.



Seeya....**Poof**

[chascarrillo]

12. Bitter?

[sellitman]

21. Yes I am.

My fellow Obama supporters are being foolish.

[chascarrillo]

24. Oh. Elitist, then.

[SoCalDem]

13. When she finally realizes she has lost..and accepts it, things will get "nice" again

Even today her henchmen were out in force..McAwful grinning from ear to ear when he mentioned again about "hoping for a catastrophe"..and an "October surprise"..in May :grr:

No one is going to just ignore her and hope she goes away.. she must FIRST GO AWAY..and then we'll ignore her :)

[Lucky 13]

33. The outreach program will begin when I hear a fucking concession speech.

Until then, game on.

[tridim]

7. Exhibit A

Geez Louise that thing is hideous.

[SoCalDem]

15. Maybe Laura loaned it to her

She has several "olefin" upholstery suits in that burnt orange/cat-barf reddish tan..



What Would Laura Wear?

[symbolman]

17. They always look like

Chairman Mao outfits to me.. :)

[AtomicKitten]

9. She's probably OK with being the butt of late night jokes because, hey, she likes the attention.

Oy.

[OzarkDem]

22. It doesn't bother her

She is mature enough to have a good sense of humor.

[PCIntern]

23. WTF??? I mean WTF?????

funny OP, BTW...this has nothing to do with the post per se:

Last night, I posted an OP about something in regard to an MSNBC correspondent's laugh (happens to be female) and got branded as a sexist pig by the...oh well, you get the picture, POLICE here...for no reason. It was postively sick. I'm glad that no one's put your head on a pike yet.

Best,

PC

[Lucky 13]

34. What this guy said wasn't sexist. Your post yesterday was just stupid.

Sorry you got publicly called out, but what do you expect? If you say something moronic here, you're going to get slammed.

[PCIntern]

36. How many standards are applied here at DU these days?

Oh I get it...it was the word 'cackle'. People didn't seem to like that much.

It's OK to slam people for their pantsuits but not their nervous laugh?

Moranic.

[Seeking Serenity]

26. Does Clinton have cankles? Is that why we never see her in a dress?

I love dresses, myself. So much cooler and free-feeling than polyester pant-suits.

[LiberalAndProud]

27. Not when you have to wear panty hose.

It would not be either cooler or more free-feeling. Panty hose are passe, I know, but when you get to a certain age, the bare-leg look is gauche.

And I cannot believe we've been reduced to discussing wardrobe.

[Seeking Serenity]

28. No panty hose for this woman. On cold days, maybe.

But then I'll usually wear jeans.

[LiberalAndProud]

37. Jeans for me too. And I don't do the makeup thing much.

As for your calendar -- maybe for some women it's like, never. Dressing for a semi-formal event, looking in the mirror and thinking 'ugh' better don the hose -- that's the day.

Every time I think we've cleaned out the issues of no substance, we find another one. It seems we have a limitless supply here on DU.

[Seeking Serenity]

38. "It seems we have a limitless supply here on DU. "

The gift that keeps on taking.

I guess since I don't go to very many formal or semi-formal events may be one reason I eschew panty-hose. And if I do have to dress up, then I'll usually wear pants. My dresses are more of the summer, sun type dealies. This is the South, don'cha know.

I love doing make-up (not the thick, heavy base, Tammy-Faye-look, but just powders and lip gloss). But I also look just as stunning without.

I'm just sayin'.

[Seeking Serenity]

29. What is that age, just so I'll know.

"hen you get to a certain age, the bare-leg look is gauche."

What is that age, just so I'll know. I'll be sure to put it on my calendar.

41 ain't it, I can tell you.

[Seeking Serenity]

30. "And I cannot believe we've been reduced to discussing wardrobe."

Hasn't everything else devoid of substance already been said? This may be all we have left.

[Egnever]

31. thats sorta funny

My wife throughout this campaign has marveled at the pantsuits. Constantly telling me she has never seen her wear the same one twice. Then yesterday she tells me OMG I have seen that suit before on her she must really be running out of money.

Totally trivial I know but still funny considering dave apparently has been watching the same metric.
