Could Barack Obama actually be--gasp!--uncool?
According to the conservative blogosphere--and at least a few impartial observers--the answer, it seems, is yes. After photographs (above) of Obama riding a bike with his daughters Malia, 7, and Sasha, 9, last weekend along Chicago's Lake Michigan shoreline hit the wires, the heavily trafficked right-wing message boards of Free Republic went wild. "Please tell me he isn’t wearing dark socks," wrote one commenter. "Dorkier than John Kerry," wrote another. Several posted images of Pee-Wee Herman. Soon, the MSM was also weighing in on Obama's square, Seinfeldian combo of white sneaks, bleached jeans and tucked-in golf shirt. "Obama gets poor fashion marks after weekend bike ride," the New York Daily News declared this morning. "It wasn't a pretty picture."
