Meanwhile, there's a photo circulating of OBama on the phone, with his
feet up on a desk. His shoes need new soles. Obama said he had already
had that done once to his shoes...and that he was wearing them out
walking around in his campaign and meeting voters.




Oh, sure...remember this TV interview last summer?

"In early July the Obama family sat down for an interview with Maria
Menounos of "Access Hollywood." One of the topics discussed was Barack's
status as a style icon, which amused his wife and daughters because, as
Michelle points out in the interview, his belt and shoes need replacing,
and his pants are 10 years old ("I hate to shop," he explains). Michelle
also reveals that the sundress she's wearing is from the Gap:
"Fortunately now they make really pretty stuff at all price ranges...
[Barack] will be happy to know that this is, like, a $30 dress." Her
husband then high-fives her, and daughter Sasha announces "Mommy buys
everything from Gap!"
