Bernie chose a new necktie for Miami debate - What's up with that?

A lot of people were commenting on his suit. Some people saw it as blue. Others saw it as brown. The necktie hasn't received much attention though. Would that be called polka dots or are polka dots bigger?

Now compare that to the tie he wore at the Flint debate:

And he also wore it for the next two days after Flint. I have to say it conveys a lot more energy than the dotted tie from Miami but both are decent choices. The Miami tie actually messed with my TV picture a little bit and made it look messed up in the area right around the tie, but that could just be my TV.

Hillary has trouble though. It's just not very genuine.

If he likes, I can send him my silk Wile E. Coyote tie. It has a pattern of small images of the famous cartoon character in a diagonal pattern. Or, he can have my lovely teddy bear pattern tie.

I'm not wearing either of them much lately, and they're very nice. They would give people something else to talk about, I'm sure.

Nobody cares about Bernie's tie. It's totally irrelevant.

Especially Bernie's frumpy suits and Hillary's absolutely horrible pant suits.

Thankfully for some of us other criteria are used to choose a candidate.

I voted Bernie in the MI primary the other day. And I did not give a fuck what the candidates wore on the stump.

Here's the take down about candidate's clothes. FUCK NOT GIVEN!!!
