another great outfit

Today's outfit, designed by Cuban born American designer Isabel Toledo, is a sunny and hopeful as our national mood...

And how cool that our first lady looks normal? No skinny mini for us.

Yay!

Cindy McCain is a lovely person, but seriously, how much more down to earth and real is Michelle?


This is how Cindy McCain summed up the experience of supporting her husband in his run for the presidency, in an interview with her daughter Meghan in The Daily Beast:

What was the hardest part about the experience, both physically and emotionally?

I couldn't respond the way I would want to on different things. When I wanted to respond to negative press, I would have to pretend it wasn't bothering me. When the article came out about your brother and where he was, that was very, very difficult. Extremely irresponsible. Not being able to respond is the hard part. Physically, the pace was grueling. When I am stressed I don't eat very much and I lost a lot of weight. People would talk about me being a skinny old woman and I resented people talking about me that way. The kind of lifestyle at the time, when all you eat is coffee, run around from place to place, and don't get much sleep, you're not going to gain weight.

Oh, Boo Fricking Hoo....what is she doing "eating coffee"? Also.
