McCain's $520 loafers put 'elitist' shoe on the other foot
David Edwards and Muriel Kane
Published: Thursday July 31, 2008

Huffington Post blogger Isabel Wilkinson reported on Wednesday that Senenator John McCain "has worn a pair of $520 black leather Ferragamo shoes on every recent campaign stop — from a news conference with the Dalai Lama to a supermarket visit in Bethlehem, PA."
