Whichever, names for cosmetic colors are getting a lot less glamorous. Poppy offers a lipstick called Vanity. Hard Candy has one called Porno and another called Navel.

Every campaign needs people like Livingstone; they book the hotels, hire the copy shops, polish off the buffet-table spreads and try to make others at the hotel bar think they were in the room for the big strategy session. If the candidate wins, some land staff jobs with impressive-sounding titles. In 1993, after helping prepare campaign stops for Al Gore and working...
