Anyone who’s covered Congress knows that House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) periodically ribs members of the Capitol press corps about their wardrobe. It could be their shoes. A jacket. A tie.
And I fell victim to Boehner’s fashion police Thursday.
Journalists are notorious for being sartorial disasters. Especially here in Washington. And hobos in “O Brother, Where Art Thou” dress better than some of the reporters who cover Congress. I’ve seen journalists wandering around the Capitol in November wearing seersucker suits. Others don ties with a print that looks like the zebra from Fruit Stripe Gum. Some seemingly insist on donning thick, tweed jackets for 96 degree days in July.
I wear a suit or at least a jacket and tie almost every day I’m at the Capitol. First, it’s a credibility thing. If you’re dealing with lawmakers and Washington’s power elite, dressing for success helps. Good tailoring lets everyone know you know what you’re doing. Even if you don’t.
