    Holes

    Posted Thursday, October 23, 2008 10:50 AM | By Emily Yoffe
    Susannah, the hole in the shoe is a well-trod candidate cliché. Obama probably doesn't want to go the way of a previous presidential candidate from Illinois whose hole-filled soles became a campaign symbol: Adlai Stevenson (this Wikipedia entry even has a picture of a Stevenson statue that shows off the shoes). Both Barack and Michelle Obama are beautifully dressed and have great personal style, which is to be appreciated. I'm with the previous XXers who don't begrudge Palin her shopping spree. That she didn't have a wardrobe ready for a vice-presidential run was at least an easily fixable deficiency.
