In these last weeks before the presidential election, everybody is looking everywhere for reasons to get people to vote for their team. In this matter, I think symbolism is very important. Has anybody noticed the ties worn by the candidates during the three debates? In case you weren’t paying attention, I’ll give you an update:<\/p>\n
Debate 1: Bush: blue tie, Kerry: red tie
\nDebate 2: Bush: blue, Kerry: red
\nDebate 3: Bush: red<\/b>, Kerry: red
\n(also for the record, the moderator in the 3rd debate wore a red, white, and blue tie…probably to be unbiased. I didn’t notice what the other moderators wore.)<\/p>\n
What are these ties saying about the opponents? I’m not sure. Notice that in the first two debates, the presidential nominees wore ties opposite to their “party colors.” In this third debate GDub has decided to buck the trend…I’m not sure what this means, but I am sure there is a message to be derived. I’ll leave that for you…I have reading to do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
