The MSM got a hard-on when they discovered that John Edwards had spent $400 on a haircut, and those pro reporters couldn't wait to share that gossipy tidbit with the world.
So, of course, all the major news sources are also breathlessly pounding out the story of Republican Mitt Romney's $300 investment in a makeover that includes foundation makeup and powder -- right?
Stacy Andrews, who made up Romney for Hidden Beauty, said he barely needs makeup.
"He's already tan," she said. "We basically put a drop of foundation on him ... and we powdered him a little bit."
You may ask: what sort of company is this so-called Hidden Beauty on which Mitt dropped several hundred bucks?
"A mobile beauty team for hair, makeup and men's grooming and spa services."
Hot damn! Oooh, shall we lay bets on how many of the MSM are coughing up this particularly girly presidential candidate hairball?
None, did you say? Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
So far, only lefty blogistan has taken note: since Politico broke the story about Romney beauty product investment.

ACTION! Start spreading the news, Kossacks! It's a slow Paris Hilton day, and with our help pointing the way the MSM will surely clammer to fill the newshole with ROMNEY'S $300 COSMETIC BAG:
