In Vogue: Cindy McCain, Michelle Obama Photos
A feature and photo essay about Cindy McCain, wife of GOP presidential hopeful Sen. John McCain, is featured in Vogue magazine’s June issue.
The 54-year-old beauty - a former rodeo queen and current chair of Hensley & Co. - is known for being demure, meticulously, even a bit uptight.
This photo - Cindy McCain wearing jeans, barefoot, perched in a deck chair on a San Diego patio - seeks to shatter these preconceptions…

It’s an interesting contrast to Vogue’s recent photo shoot of the other possible next First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama, 44.
The Vogue photos shot by Annie Leibovitz (a.k.a. Miley Cyrus’ enabler) paint a fascinating portrait of Democratic Sen. Barack Obama’s wife…

Formal, classic, preppy Michelle Obama pictures like this one conjure up images of Jackie Kennedy - not a surprise, as many in the media compare Barack Obama to Jackie’s young, charismatic late husband.
The Cindy McCain photos, meanwhile, seem to be an attempt to downplay her Stepford Wife qualities and show us her accessible, laid-back, outdoorsy side.
Just how successful are the Cindy McCain and Michelle Obama Vogue photos at altering the perceptions you have? Do you view them more favorably?

Get the heck out. Is it in every pale WW’s contract that she must be referred to as a “beauty?” Ms. McCain may (or not) be beautiful inside but on the outside, she looks tired, worn, leathered and sad.
