RNC Spends BIG Money for Gov Palins clothes....

This is awesome. However all the money was taken from donated funds. She must have gotten a crazy wardrobe. I know very little about womens clothing. But you ladies might appreciate the same given to fill you closets. Take a look.

"The Republican National Committee spent about $150,000 on clothing, hair styling, makeup and other "campaign accessories" in September for the McCain campaign after Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin joined the ticket as his running mate."

Here is the source article:

At least the money being spent here will in turn help others.

All the $$$$'s spent on negative ads only promotes lies and influence - maybe.

It sounds as if Governor Palin is blessed.

Blessed for sure, but that article does talk about the clothing and such going to a "charitable purpose". That charitable purpose could be the governors closet after the election if it is won by the GOP. I think that it is a neat story though that is a ton of money for clothing, accessories and make up.

Good thing is was from donated funds, which can be used for this purpose, and not money from our paid taxes.

Middle class republican who live from pay check to pay check donate $10 to $50 to the RNC have their hard earned money spent at the most expensive stores (where the elite shop) all the while they shop at Target and Wal-Mart. This hockey mom is to good to shop where all the other hockey moms shop.

Let's discuss $800,000 from BO to ACORN. I think there is more to be revealed here than Palin's wardrobe.

The hypocrisy of the media to focus on this non-issue is pathetic. If she wasn't dressing in fine duds, the New York snobs in the media would be picking her apart for her dour wardrobe.

Face it, no matter what Sarah does, the elitists are going to criticize because the bottom line is they have no objectivity with Sarah P. because she is a threat.

They act just like the rich, snobby and arrogant country club kids we went to school with. If you aren't a part of their clique you don't deserve what they feel entitled to.

Talk about a shopping spree. I bet all kinds of ladies will be running for Pres or Vice next time around!

It amazes me how republican are in a protection mode for Sara. The woman who thinks the VP runs the senate, who thinks the VP can make changes in the senate.
Her negatives are growing higher each day.

What a hypocrite the McCain camp is showing Sara shopping in Wal-Mart trying to portray her as ordinary folk all the while spending $150,000.00 of donated money on clothing at the most elites stores in the country.What a joke.
