Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was given the dubious distinction of being one of the Senate's top three "fashion victims," according to poll results published in this month's Washingtonian magazine.
The magazine, which does the poll every year, surveyed more than 1,500 Capitol Hill staffers of both political parties to ask them which senators and House members they think are the smartest, meanest, most clueless, hardest workers, biggest hunks, etc.
Sanders, who has been in office less than two years, came in second on the list of Senate fashion victims for his no-nonsense suits, comfortable shoes and unruly hair.
He was behind Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Md. and just ahead of Sen. Debbie Stabenow, D-Mich.
Since no Republicans made the list, it's possible that GOP staffers weighed in more heavily on this category.
Maybe Bernie needs to wear more red?
