We Just Want The Next President To Come On Down Already

Jessica — Fri, 31 Oct 2008 18:30:00 EDT

Only a few more days until the election, and Barack Obama is doing us a solid by appearing with two of our favorites: Rachel Maddow and Jon Stewart.
You know who is so not our favorite? Former Ms. editor turned turned Palin proponent Elaine Lafferty.
John McCain is also on our shit list for his female-unfriendly health plan.
However, we are totally in love with this Price Is Right-inspired Marie Claire fashion spread. Childhood nostalgia come on down!
But truly, nothing says nostalgia like these pictures of our childhood Halloween costumes.
Also making us nostalgic: thinking about raiding our moms' closets.

Like the timelessness of our mothers' garments, the grossness of American Apparel founder Dov Charney will last forever.
At least his name's not Tucker. He's got that going for him!
A better kind of American apparel: Michelle Obama's J. Crew duds inspiring a shopping spree.
You guys, it's Friday. So replay the Obama infomerical and cry big, hopeful tears. You deserve it!

Jon Stewart On The High Flyin' Palin Family: "They're Grifters!"

Jessica — Thu, 23 Oct 2008 12:00:00 EDT

It's almost difficult to comprehend the deluge of Palin expenses we've been made aware of in the past few days: the $150,000 wardrobe, the $21,000 state dollars spent transporting her kidlets to events, and the use of the Alaska public safety department's plane... good thing we have Jon Stewart to break down the narrative of the Palin family fortune for us! You see, they're Grifters! "The hot one finds an elderly victim," Jon explains, "and then she seduces him with her un-fancy talk…Once he pulls out the checkbook, Boom! Here come the relatives. The old fart never had a chance." Clip above.

Jon Stewart: Barack Obama "Cured My Leprosy"

While some were busy doing drunken post-mortems on the season premiere of America's Next Top Model last night, others were busy swooning over Daily Show host Jon Stewart, who appeared on Larry King Live to discuss the writer's strike, the Oscars (he's hosting this Sunday, don't you know?) and, of course, the election. See what he had to say about the criticisms and cults of personality surrounding Senators Clinton and Obama, above.

Why Don't Jay-Z And Beyonce Have A Dumb Couple Name Like Everyone Else? Jayonce? Be-Hova?

Yeah, it's supposed to be vacation, but Beyonce doesn't exactly dress down. Just walking around with those earrings is like working out with weights strapped to your ankles. She reminds us of our grandmother. (Photo after jump) [People]
