Red ties; red dress.
With Kasich and Carson the blue-tie outliers.
The word apparently got out to the undercard, too. Huckabee blue, everybody else red:

The word apparently got out to the undercard, too. Huckabee blue, everybody else red:
GET THE RED OUT!
Blue is the international color of the political Right. Red, according to my late great Marxist Quaker political though prof, is the color of the Left since the Spartacist revolt! (And yes, he always wore RED ties, and only RED ties for that reason.)
I saw Huck’s shoes in CB. Not good.
Some of them need to get a tailor for their pants. Rubio is trying to do the straight-leg-no-break look (it’s “in” with the fashion forward hipster). Cruz’ uniform fits him the best – slim pants, jacket looks like the right size. Bush looks good as well.
When I attended my first management meeting at KSC, I noticed that everyone else sitting around the conference table was wearing cordovan slip-on shoes – the kind with the tassels. I was so embarrassed because there I was wearing brown Florsheim wingtips. I knew right away that my career at KSC would never go anywhere unless I wore the right shoes, so I ran right out and bought some cordovan slip-ons with tassels. (This story is only slightly tongue in cheek.)
When I worked for IBM, a white shirt, “sincere” (paisley or rep) tie, business suit, knee length socks (not crew socks), and preferably Florsheim lace up wingtips were required.
We were expected to call on the highest level in the customer’s organization (and that included, for example the president of Gulf Oil or Exxon). The theory was that we were to dress appropriately should we be admitted to the president’s office.
When I was a new employee, another employee took me aside and “suggested” that I not wear a very conservative pale blue button down shirt (with tie) anymore.
Did anyone notice that during the singing of the national anthem, when everyone put his or her hand across his or her heart, Cruz, slipped his under the lapel of his jacket in the manner of Napoleon?
I noticed that, mizpants…wonder what thatt meant?
a recently released Department of Defense document from 2012, around the same time as the attacks in Benghazi, and the host says it backs up his claim that U.S. foreign policy “supports ISIS,”

“Development of the current events into a proxy war: with support from Russia, China, and Iran, the regime is controlling the areas of influence,”

“What was [Obama administration’s] plan? Not to defeat [the Islamic State], to harness it, and use them for regime change,” Beck charged. “We supported their efforts – our foreign policy was actually to support and harness ISIS in order to get what we wanted, which was to get Assad out.”
Beck then said that politicians and voters on the left who claim the U.S. “gets involved in other people’s crap” should pay attention to this because it “is an example and it’s in documents from the DOD.”
