Thanks for the link to NEGATIVITY PAYS

It's a great column.

[snip]... Ironically, the two politoco superstars that O'Brien recruited yesterday to trumpet her theme that Romney was a closet anti-feminist were Hillary Clinton and Teresa Heinz - both of whom, whatever their personal merits, rose to prominence through their marriages to successful politicians.[snip]

Wouldn't it be terrific if Globe reporters did a little work of their own instead of being spoon-fed anti-Romney gibberish from the O'Brien camp. Such as doing a Google search on the term? What they will find is that the word "unbecoming" is in widespread usage...[snip]

The word "unbecoming" has recently had quite a workout, from being publically applied to much of the Clintons' conduct.

And think of how "unbecoming" some of the rooms in the Clinton White House appeared, after Kaki Hockersmith helped Hillary decorate.

"Referred to in some of the more churlish circlesof the interiors world as 'Tacky Kaki,' Hockersmith has been criticized for her elaborate quasi-Victorian schemes in the Lincoln Sitting Room and the Treaty Room," the magazine adds.

It has one White House source saying that "Kaki's taste is horrible . . The new first family will have to change the Lincoln Sitting Room because you just couldn't sit in it." And Janet Felton Smith, a former aide to Jackie Kennedy, goes on the record as saying Hillary's decor is "just terrible."
