Ditz = Topical

In light of recent US news, Ditz can't NOT be topical. Instead of telling you how happy I am that Obama won, and how bittersweet I feel about McCain's loss, we're going to discuss something a teeeeensy bit more important.

WHO WORE WHAT and WHO LOOKED BEST.

What were you expecting? Do you KNOW who I am?!

Section 1: Attack of the Yellow Suits

Did Jill Biden miss the memo that yellow is the REPUBLICAN color du jour? Someone shoot her stylist. She would've blended in better with the Republicans. Roberta McCain is one bitter battle-axe. Why? Not because her precious son lost the election, BUT BECAUSE HIS WIFE, THAT UNGRATEFUL SOUR PATCH KID, IS ALSO WEARING YELLOW. And a BETTER yellow outfit at that. Roberta would rather be watching Matlock with a jar of prunes than be standing next to Cindy in competing YELLOW.

1 point for Cindy McCain for rocking a delicious Oscar de la Renta suit, SIMILAR BUT NOT EXACTLY THE SAME as that OTHER yellow Oscar frock she wore.

Section 2: It's Not Prom So Why Are You In Sequins

Meghan, Meghan, Meghan. I love your blog. I love your CUTE stylish outfits. ALWAYS. BUT WHAT IS THIS ATTROCITY?? It's not PROM. IT'S THE DAY YOUR FATHER ALMOST MADE IT INTO OFFICE. Sweetheart, don't wear dresses that match your hair. Not cute. No.

Section 3: Mrs. President Loves Red

Everyone is giving Miche Obama crap about her frock. HELLO? THE WOMAN NORMALLY WEARS H&M DRESSES. This is a Narciso Rodriguez. This is a big step for the First Lady who is a generally SMART SHOPPER. She even matched the kinderlach to her frock. AND Barack-You-Like-A-Hurricane's tie. I think she looked supercute. Okay, so the dress is not THE most flattering, but come on. Let's give the woman some props for going designer!

Section 4: I Can See Russia From My Home

Alaska's favorite beauty queen shimmers in a lovely navy blue suit, coordinated to match - not clash - with Cindy McCain. Palin's Republican "stylists" opted to downplay her obvious assets and make sure her outfit didn't outshine Cindy's. We know Sarah is sexy, but SHE WOULDN'T BE SEXIER THAN THE FIRST LADY because NOBODY is allowed to TOP the first lady!

So, let's rank the choice ladies of Election Night 2008. From top to bottom, WHO LOOKED BEST:

1. Sarah Palin - OBVIOUSLY. She can do NO WRONG. NEVER.
2. Jill Biden - uncoordinated with her party, but ADORABLE AS ALL HECK.
3. Cindy McCain - Oscar de la Renta would shoot her if she wasn't in the top 3.
4. Michelle Obama - props for her designer choice, let's see what she pulls out of her hat for INAUGURATION DAY.
5. Meghan McCain - not prom, but doable. Go return the 17 dresses you bought for inauguration day. It's just not happening.
6. Roberta McCain - stop trying to steal Cindy's spotlight, IT WAS HER DAY.

See? Sometimes I care what's going on in the world. SOMETIMES.
