sarah-palin-vogue-magazine.jpgDespite Alaskan governor’s excellent record, the Republican National Committee felt that Sarah Palin needed a fashion makeover at a cost of more than $150,000.

The Republican National Committee appears to have spent more than $150,000 to clothe and accessorize vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and her family since her surprise pick by John McCain in late August.

According to financial disclosure records, the accessorizing began in early September and included bills from Saks Fifth Avenue in St. Louis and New York for a combined $49,425.74.

The records also document a couple of big-time shopping trips to Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis, including one $75,062.63 spree in early September.


I could care less what the labels on Palin’s ass read, pero in these times of Joe Plumber talk, I’m sure Joe Plumber’s wife, the hockey mom and kids aren’t getting such shopping sprees.

Ay pero before you get too angry, the RNC wants you to know that they care about those less fortunate or something like that.

“It was always the intent that the clothing go to a charitable purpose after the campaign.”

Yeah, and I’m sure Obama didn’t spend a penny on new clothing right?

What a JOKE!

You know it didn’t matter what the lady wore. You were ready to spread as much mud as you could spin. Funny the only one left looking bad was you, at least by those of us who can read.
By the way maybe the RNC would donate the cloths to you (think they’d fit).
