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.

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.

I think it is extremely sexist to even discuss what she is or is not wearing.

its stupid.

Good point, Ferd. How about a detailed list of what Obama has spent on suits, shirts, ties & shoes for this campaign?

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

Who released this info? Are they trying to tie this in with their investigation of her charges as Governor? It seems like this is really starting to get ugly and petty across the board. I'm not sure who is actually pushing it, but they are investigating things that she billed the state of Alaska for in regards to her family and travel as well. They are alleging that she went backed and changed the language of some of the charges after they began to look into it.
There are so many serious issues that we need to be discussing, and I hate to see when the superfluous becomes the focal point.
