GQ picks the best and worst dressed in Washington

By Christina Wilkie - 12/18/09 04:14 PM ET

GQ magazine released a list of the best and worst dressed men in politics this week, and they weren't afraid to be a little harsh.

Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) and White House chief economist Larry Summers were chided for looking "messy," while Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele was panned for wearing "boxy, high-cut jackets." Senior presidential adviser David Axelrod, the magazine wrote, represents "The Schlubby."

On the positive side, House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) and Vice President Joe Biden were praised for their taste in power suits, while House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.) and Ways and Means Committee Chairman Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) were both abeled "District Dandies," for their well-coordinated accessories.

The highest marks were reserved for President Barack Obama, who the magazine said was the best dressed president since John F. Kennedy Jr.
