46. Every one of these women needs a trainer and/or stylist. What's more important than taking care of themselves? How can they perform their service if they keel over with a heart attack? And like it or not, if they look ridiculous, they won't be taken seriously and thus be less effective in their jobs.
47. I thought Hillary's coat was cute and fun for someone her age. She is trying to not do the whole scary bright colored female politician suit look, give her a break and some credit for trying something new.
The rest yes were scary, but why is there no male politician hall of fame; many more beer/pork bellies, bad suits, and comb overs than I can count.
51. TMZ why do you comment on these womens fashion. they are politicians that have more important things to worry about. if you are going to comment about a politicians style then don't be sexist and comment about the men as well.
52. i suggest that whoever posts for TMZ also display a self portrait photograph so the world can mock them for how they look, since apparently looks are EVERYTHING.
53. She may not be in Congress but someone should check out Cindy McCain - shes got terrific fashion sense, but
Huckabee's wife - well she looks like a
Huckabee!
54. Here is my take for what is worth...
Maybe "What Not to Wear" sould do some shows on some of these ladies. Seriously some of these outfits shouldn't be worn by anyone. A lot of these ladies are wearing colors/patterns that are really LOUD or their suits need to be tailored some. I think they just need some tips so they could come across more professional and be taken more serious. I don't know if they are trying to bring more attention to themselves by wearing the LOUD stuff or what but they do need some help from Stacey and Cliton's show "What Not To Wear".

55. Just because they're accomplished doesn't mean they shouldn't dress the part. You all may not like it, but American society is very wrapped up in outward appearances. If you want to be taken seriously and be respected, you need to put yourself together well and look professional. I'm sorry but those outfits were dowdy, old looking (or just disturbing).
57. I am the last person to pull out the race card or gender card, but this post is racist, sexist, and worst of all, POINTLESS. Yes, there's no excuse for people who can afford a tailor to wear ill-fitting clothes, but most of the outfits were perfectly acceptable. And Mary Bono and Hilary looked GREAT. Not my style, but for ladies old enough to be grandmas, THEY WORKED IT!

58. Looks like the ladies are headed to Branson, Missouri for a grand ole time. All they need is a hat with a price tag.
59. Wow. So we now judge women solely on their fashion and style and not their accomplishments. What sort of signal is this blog sending young girls across this country? Why do you have to demean women in such an ugly manner? Whom ever posted this article needs to be fired!
60. This is so typical of the losers that you have on your tv show. If you want to point out how bad accomplished people look then I would suggest you improve the appearance of the TMZers first.
All women over 40 should boycott this site because of the sexist and age discrimination that Harvey and crew support.

48. actually, i'd suggest that everyone who comments on people's appearance also post a self-portrait I'll just bet Scott is a perfect specimen.

49. Two words none of these women have ever heard of: Diet and Exercise.

56. I didn't know the "fat people" section at JC Penny's had such unfashionable clothes.
