The politics behind Ryan ditching his famous neckwear...

Mitt Romney’s VP choice is best known for two things: designing the Republican budget and wearing bold, striped neckties. It has not gone unnoticed by the media that Ryan has been tieless ever since presidential hopeful Mitt Romney introduced him as his running mate last week. He hasn't donned a necktie once during their four day bus trip that took the White House hopefuls to four key swing states, Virginia, North Carolina, Florida and Ohio. Why? Because he's trying to look like a regular guy, a sharp contrast to buttoned-up Romney. That's why.

Brilliant! No one has ever thought of this before. Remember Lamar Alexander with his plaid flannel shirts or when Gore had a woman dressing him to mae him look more like a real man instead of a stuffed shirt ill at ease with commoners?

Is Mitt this elections Al Gore?

It's interesting to me because it's not the person Ryan is. He's a tie guy. But are they stupid enough to think people can't figure out ditching the tie is just for show?

Noose.

Well, he's (conveeeeniently) ditching his extremist beliefs...(at least for the moment)...Why not the tie?

Wow, even for shiny objects this is getting low in the barrel. Oh well, when you have nothing you have nothing to loose.

They are regular guys, here's proof.

Man-crushes are sooooo potent....

Raees would make a great campaign manager for any liberal... such an important story.

It's all in how the candidate is packaged. Some people are shallow enough to vote based on appearance. Remember the Palin shopping spree after she was picked?
