Don’t Buy It म्हणाले...: There is no better way to understand just how badly the US mental healthcare system is in disarray than to read media outlet coverage of political campaigns.; ७/१/१६, ९:०७ AM
Charlie Currie म्हणाले...: Beatles boots.. wore those in the mid 60s too...; ७/१/१६, ९:२५ AM
Curious George म्हणाले...: I think they also caught Chris Christie wearing Hillary's ankles.; ७/१/१६, ९:३० AM
traditionalguy म्हणाले...: Cuban Heels and Canadian bacon. No wonder the founding fathers did not trust newcomers to be President.; ७/१/१६, ९:३३ AM
mccullough म्हणाले...: Rubio is the perfect combo of W and Obama; ७/१/१६, ९:३६ AM
Mark म्हणाले...: Excepting the square toe styling, they aren't much different than cowboy boots like Ted Cruz wears.

They just have a sense of style.; ७/१/१६, ९:३७ AM
Harold Boxty म्हणाले...: Austin Powers wore them better.; ७/१/१६, ९:३८ AM
Michael म्हणाले...: Rubio's boots have a Latin tinge to them, the heels a bit like those favored by Flamenco dancers. They aren't over the top and likely don't have metal taps.

Christie is wearing Allen Edmonds Park Avenue cap toe shoes that are in need of repair/replacement/care. A very typical shoe and clearly unkept for a reason.; ७/१/१६, ९:५५ AM
mikee म्हणाले...: Does Rubio suffer from short person syndrome, wherein one must be bigger than life to overcome not being able to see over others' heads?; ७/१/१६, १०:३७ AM
Hagar म्हणाले...: And what is with the stovepipe pants? Haven't seen those for a long time.; ७/१/१६, १०:५६ AM
Fabi म्हणाले...: How could Michael discern that Christie's cap-toe Oxfords were made by Allen Edmonds and not Alden Bootmakers?; ७/१/१६, ११:११ AM
Limited blogger म्हणाले...: The campaign is moving along at a brisk pace.

Rubio is obviously being portrayed favorably, and glamorously, here, as is the MSM's wont.

Poor Chris Christie! My gosh, could they have gotten a more sad sack shot than that?; ७/१/१६, ११:११ AM
Big Mike म्हणाले...: OMG, a Floridian of Cuban descent owns a small boat for fishing and wears boots with Cuban heels! Unelectable!; ७/१/१६, ११:४६ AM
David म्हणाले...: Rubio is short. Thus the boots.; ७/१/१६, १२:०७ PM
Andrew म्हणाले...: Christie's shoes are more likely Alden cap toes, note AE cap toe has perforations on the cap seam. For all we know the shoes are even more expensive and English made. Rubio's shoes are probably Italian, Chio baby.; ७/१/१६, १२:५८ PM
Michael म्हणाले...: Fabi

Here is how. Alden has five eyelets and Allen Edmonds six.; ७/१/१६, ३:४८ PM
Michael म्हणाले...: Andrew

AE cap toes, Park Ave. model, are not perforated. A different model not the ones shown. Christies shoes have six eyelets as far as I can tell and AE is the six eyelet maker, not Alden. Plus Alden more expensive; ७/१/१६, ३:५० PM
Hagar म्हणाले...: Bret Baier is also wearing something peculiar this evening.
It is black so that I can't quite tell what it is, but it is not a conventional suit.; ७/१/१६, ५:२० PM
अनामित म्हणाले...: Are you sure the lighting doesn't make the socks look to be different colors?

Bret Bair (on Special Report) was outdoors, wearing a black overcoat; ७/१/१६, ८:३३ PM
