We are really in no position to judge Gavin Newsom for wearing the same blue tie to numerous events, since we wear black pants and a gray sweater like every single day of the week -- but thanks to commenter Richmond Dem for giving us the idea of putting together a Gavin Newsom Blue Tie collage! Yeah, we know, after we finished it, we were like, wow, this is a little sick on our part.
There are 30 separate pictures in the collage (and plenty more we didn't include out there on the web), and we tried to pick pictures from different events (though it's possible Gavin did two photo ops in one day wearing the same tie). Those of you who don't believe us, check out the mayor's homepage, which features Gavin wearing our favorite tie to three different events.
It's possible that Gavin has two similarly-hued ties, one silver-blue and one a more blue-gray, which look more or less equivalent on a computer screen. Also -- the other ties that Gavin seems to favor: a red tie and a dark blue and white striped one.

So get out there if you think this is newsworthy. Start a movement!
All of us, each and every one of us, need to give Gav a tie -- a very cool tie for Christmas.
Great, now you are going to make Gavin self-conscious about his tie. First you pick on a perfectly good (if 30 years old) hair style. Now it's the fact that he really is a frat boy, wearing his one tie over and over and over again. Next I suppose you'll be pointing out that he binge drinks, also like a naughty little frat boy. You might be onto something, but he doesn't chase far younger, under-age chicks...
At least it's quite a tasteful tie.
(Rinnnnggggg, Rinnnnngggg)
"Hello?"
"Hi, Gavin."
"Who's this?"
"It's 1995. I just wanted to say: FABulous tie!"
"Oh, okay."
"I bet it's a hit with all the ladies."
"Dude, check it, all the blondes go crazy over it."
"Sweet."
I've been bitching about this stupid light blue tie ever since he was elected. No millionaire should wear the same damn tie every day. What with his acid washed jeans and ubiquitous tie, I have to agree with Kimberly Guilfoyle's snarky snickers when GQ picked him best dressed politician. Vote must've been held at the school for the blind.
....that's right! I just checked our archives, and bluecanary -- YOU CALLED IT!!!. Way back in May!
I wish he would just leave SF for Hollywood where he belongs.
