It’s everywhere you turn. On bumper stickers, scrawled across trucker hats,(OY VEY Who the fuck is still wearing trucker hats) in commercials during a television show, staring from the cover of your favorite magazine. All with one resounding message: OBAMA FASHION is sweeping our nation.
Not since JFK has a political figure been so revered and loved by (most of) the American public. And fashion, ever a source of *unique* and “understated” expression, is showing the belabored symptoms as well.
The ubiquitous Obama tee can be seen on everyone from trendy hipsters in France to the glamourous Halle and trannylicious Beyonce strolling the streets of NYC…(minus her wig of course)
Other forms of fashionable political expression are not as endearing.
Honestly.
Who decided to come up with an Obama Dance?
…. Sure, maybe somewhere somehow it will inspire some poor lost youngster to vote… but you have to wonder: especially in light of the Paris Hilton comparisons, is it hurting or helping his campaign?
How long is it before women start coming into the salon asking for the “Palin Bangs”
or the “Alaskan Highlights”? Come on!
Not to quote Bring it On or anything (yea I took it there) but…remember young voters, paraphernalia is strictly forboden at the voting booths so remember to leave your trendy Obama Canvas tote bag at home on election day.
Just settle for the one you bought from Strand.
