The sweater vest! I think it's kinda cute and sensible ... I'm a Newt supporter, but the sweater vest shows a kind of nice, provincial common sense!

It makes me think of Sean Hannity's hilarious aversion to men wearing Ugg boots. Hannity is an Easterner. Come to California on the coast and see manly gnarled surfers, buff beach bums, and competitive swimmers in those Uggs. Believe me, they're 100 percent MEN to make any red-blooded American girl's heart go "My stars! *sigh*"

But I think I understand and sympathize with Hannity's take. I know my revulsion at seeing men wearing leather penny loafers with no socks *shudder* is a provincial thing, a California thing (didn't figure it out until I was in my late 30s, either -- I thought it was "dork," when really, it was just East Coast cool), because to me and most native Californias I grew up with, that "look" is, I expect, as shocking and ghastly to contemplate and "real men" in Ugg boots is for Sean!

Agreed. Santorum does not do much for me but the sweater vest thing is kinda endearing.
