Do you believe Sarah Palin was frugal in spending $150,000 for her clothes?
**Yesterday in an interview she said:
"Oh, if people only knew how frugal we are,"
Follow up question:
In the last 7 weeks of watching her speeches, what has she said that you believe is logical or true?
If you don't think that every other candidate has spent similar amounts on clothing you're pretty naive.
Hillary has dozens of her trademark pantsuits, in every possible shade. They're designer pantsuits, worth $6,350 each, according to the designer. Her earrings and necklaces aren't costume jewelry, either. That pearl necklace she wore one time has to be worth at least $20,000.
Obama's suits (featured on the cover of GQ) are not lowly $800 off-the-rack-at-Macy's suits, either. They are custom tailored, must run in the thousands of dollars.
How much did Joe Biden's hair plugs and botox injections cost? Who knows?
The fact is that, unlike the multi-millionaires Obama and Hillary, the decidedly middlle-class Palins didn't have enough clothes in their closets, let alone their suitcases, to last during the duration of a 75-day political campaign. Private donors gave money to the RNC (not the McCain campaign) to make her and her family look good on the campaign trail (and there's nothing wrong at looking your best.) When the campaign is over, the clothing will be sold and the money given to charity (which is why this is completely legal.)
Sorry if I've disturbed anyone's preconceived ideas with the facts.
