For civilians, attending the presidential debates is damn near impossible. But big campaign fund-raisers like Anna Wintour don't have to hold out a flimsy shred of hope on some college-student ticket lottery. The campaigns get to dole out a significant number of the tickets, and Barack's camp evidently gave one to Anna. (Either that or some poor assistant probably had a really awful day procuring one.) We wonder if this is the campaign's way of making up for that time they misspelled her name on the invitation for the big Runway to Change fund-raiser. Interesting how Anna looks much happier to be here than she does on the front rows of Fashion Week. And she's not even close to sitting on the front row.
