Don’t vote for a man who can’t do his own hair!

Clinton’s haircut cost more. So did Edward’s shampoo. Then, there’s Hillary’s face lift . . .

It is widely believed that make up made the difference in the Kennedy Nixon debates 0f 1960. Everybody on TV is made up.

Once a day I wash everything. Once a month I run electric clippers over everything above my neck. If that doesn’t make me pretty, to Hell with it!

So what?

You can't even get a good haircut for that price! (sarcasm)

That settles it then.

Giuliani is certain to win.

Bush has shorter hair. Maybe Edwards can learn something from that!

Haha, how true. I’m on more of a two week schedule for the “everything above the neck” event. The beard gets itchy.

If NIXON had, he would have won in 1960.

Bee Eff Dee. In 2000, Al Gore paid Naomi Wolf $15,000 a month to -- among other things -- recommend that he wear "earth tones."

I guess this is supposed to blunt criticism of John Edwards' expensive hair excursions as he talks about the gap between the rich and poor. It doesn't.

I do not have an issue with Romney. I did not write the article.

The Edwards make-up/hairstyling video is morphing into different forms and becoming its own mini-internet-phenomenon.

Yep. I have Great Clips go over my head about once a month with a "number 4" attachment on the clippers. Nice and simple.
