Things are going so well for the Democrats and Barack Obama that
the Republicans are now finding cause to complain about Anna Wintour and
Clint Eastwood.
Vogue editor Wintour, a known Democrat fund raiser, has come up with the wonderful idea of rallying her designer community in the service of raising money for the Obama campaign by having the likes of Marc Jacobs, Thakoon Panichgul and Derek Lam design relatively inexpensive t-shirts and bags that will go on sale next week (see some of the items above). Here the Republicans, who are all up in allowing corporations to donate as much as they want via Super Pacs, are nitpicking the rules about whether these t-shirts violate guidelines for political donations. Thank you once again Republicans for drawing attention to Wintour's initiative and giving it the kind of publicity that guarantees sales galore.
