bonus post -- on trivia

Anyone notice Cindy McCain's makeover since Sarah joined the team? Before, Cindy looked like an ice princess: all neatly coiffed, in whites or subtle pastels, in the background.

Post-Sarah: Cindy is everywhere in bright, bright day-glo primary colors, obviously very very expensive designer gowns, hair down and often tousled, making speeches, upstaging Sarah with her looks. The picture of the three of them at the Colorado Springs rally was obvious: Cindy was in the foreground wearing a blindingly bright red dress and an equally bright green jacket. She looked like a Christmas tree drawn with crayons. (But I have to admit she also looked stunning, if you like that type.) In the background, standing at the podium, was Sarah in drab brown outfit. Johnny Mc in between, but turned and gesturing toward Cindy.

I can imagine the conversation. Cindy: "OK, Buster, choose that woman for your running mate, but just remember: I'm the First Lady, and I supply the glamour around here. See you later. I'm going shopping."
