All The Good States Are Blue

Edited by Amanda Gabriele

Four years ago, I watched as my Midwestern, swing-state Ohio fucked up once again and bled Republican red. ” All of the good states are blue,” I said. The time couldn’t come soon enough for me to get the hell out of here. But today, I am proud, for one of the few times in my life, to be an Ohioan. In a downtown bar Tuesday night that was more packed than a Saturday evening, a hundred Obama supporters wrapped in American flags, covered in buttons and stickers or simply wearing red, white and blue clothing let out roaring cheers as our fair state turned blue on the map. I haven’t been this happy, proud or enthusiastic about living in this country for a really long time. I will be wearing blue for the rest of the week in honor of American people seeking change, but most importantly, Ohioan!

AND CINDY MCCAIN LOOKS LIKE BIG BIRD!

Fashion Quotable: Tim Gunn

Recently, NY Mag asked Project Runway’s Tim Gunn of his opinion on the prospective First Lady’s of the United States. Gunn boldly replied that he clearly prefered the fashionable Michelle Obama. Gunn is not merely discussing the two women’s fashion sense. He insightfully intertwines fashion choice with character    

“Michelle really epitomizes American style, and she’s not afraid to show her shape, she’s not afraid to show her sexiness without being the least bit inappropriate,” Tim said. “She’s just an alluring woman. And Cindy with her suits and she’s all buttoned up, she’s just soooo — she just looks like she’s duct-taped! There is just something about her, and in a way it’s a metaphor about who she is!”
