Democrat Alexi Giannoulias, running against Mark Kirk for an Illinois US Senate seat, has an approved vox pop commercial. The people-on-the-street are all saying negative things about Mark Kirk. Pretty typical stuff, "he's out of touch," "how can he vote against middle class tax cuts," and so on.
but the last person says, "i would not trust him with my left shoe."
i'm not sure what she means, and i'm not certain under what circumstances i personally would trust Mr Kirk with my own left shoe. have i removed this shoe for his inspection, such that if he were to abscond with it, i'd be trying to find a way home with only one shoe? is it cold? is there snow? am i driving or taking the el?
serious issues, indeed.

and what if your left shoe was up his arse, from you kicking him there? What ill effects it would suffer!
Can we combine trust metaphors and just say the we don't trust him as far as we can throw our left shoes?
ha!
yes, yes we can.
