MIKE'S RED SHOES

Is it the shoes?

This is from an email on E-Democracy about Mike Erlandson's candidacy to replace Sabo:

"But Mikes real problems aren't revealed by just his policies, although that is educational, his biggest problem is revealed by his shoes. They are way too funky and just a wee bit out of control, just a bit beyond being chic. They give the impression that he is way too cool for us mere mortals."

The picture above of Erlandson is from a press conference in 2004 where he wore a "funky" pair of red shoes. I had this picture in my files and after reading the email above, I thought they made a perfect match.

Will this race be decided by shoes?
