OTV: Fashion Is Vital Even In Recall

OrangeTV RE: the most “garish patriotic jacket possible” (description of jacket state Sen. Kathy Sims wore while collecting signatures for recall Saturday): Oh, really -- critiquing an America-loving patriot’s fashion choices? Must we sink down to that level? (Yes, we must. And should, because I’ve seen her around town in that tacky thing and it truly is a painful workout for the eyeballs.) Anyway, if we are going on fashion sense and fashion sense alone, the Mayoress would kick serious runway booty over Sims and Souza in their mom jeans, fleece what-nots, and Shopko jewelry and accessories. We all know that much at least.

Question: If we decided the outcome of the Coeur d'Alene recall attempt based on "America's Next Super Model" runway criteria, which side would win?
