McCain Goes All Out On Make-Up

We live in an age with television and when someone goes on there to convince Americans to vote for them, they should look good. I'll grant that to any candidate because voters want to see that you are not a disheveled mess. For John McCain though, he needs make-up to look his best, a lot of make-up, to the tune of over five thousand dollars.

From RawStory:

It's not cheap to get John McCain's 72-year-old face ready for prime-time.

The celebrity gossips at US Weekly report the Republican presidential candidate has spent more than $5,500 for a makeup artist better known for her work in Hollywood.

White did McCain's makeup before a televised forum at the Saddleback Church last month and before an unknown number of additional appearances.

A McCain spokesperson wouldn't comment when asked about the makeup services.
McCain's face, like his policies, need to be covered up and hidden by the very best, whether they be make-up artists or spin artists. Honestly I could care less that he spends $5,000 or $10,000 to make him look pretty (though honestly I can't tell that's a $5K face). Yet the make-up is a great metaphor to what he plans to do to our country, telling us he has a new plan and direction when it really is more of the same that Bush brought us.

All the powder and rouge in the world couldn't make a McCain Administration appealing nor attractive.
