New Palin Scandal: The RNC bought her some new clothes

Or, alternately, "Why Vintage should be the 2012 GOP vice presidential nominee."*

Who would have thought that the Governor of Alaska might need a professional wardrobe suitable for places outside the tundra? For shame! I can just imagine the outrage that would ensue if this was a Lingle-Palin ticket.

*As the GOP vice presidential nominee, I would relinquish half of my shoe budget would go to alexthechick. Slip on Vans don't cost that much.

Update: Maybe they'd be spending more money teaching me how to spell than with my fashion. I am lost without spell check. (That is, unless potential employers are reading, in which case I meant to say "show" instead of "shoe.")

3 I only wear my Crocs, Birkenstocks, Pearl Izumi road running shoes, or my Puma off road running shoes when not at work.

When you hit your head and invited me to post.

*As the GOP vice presidential nominee, I would relinquish half of my show budget would go to alexthechick.

Your nobility is amazing.

5 So that's 1 dollar for every 4,000 dollars Obama has spent on ads. And he won't say who's giving him the money. And he's a socialist who, if his running mate is to be believed, will trigger attacks on America just by showing up.

GET HER!!!

6 I might be wrong on the numbers. But the outrage is accurate. (Thanks, lefties!)

7 As a guy, I'm loathe to admit this, but she pretty much had to have a ton of cash set aside for clothes. John, Joe, and Barry are all Washington critters and as men can get away with wearing the same suit on different days. Sarah's got to have a new outfit for almost every appearance.

As an aside, the campaign said they'd be donating the clothes to charity after the election. I think they should make a statement that they'll be available on eBay, with the proceeds going to charity.

wherein Veeshir makes all the women go "ooooh, creepy" and all the men go "heh" then "oooh, creepy" and Rosetta go, well, whatever the hell Rosettas go

Good idea leoncaruthers, I bet they would make more money from the auction if they didn't wash them first.

9 ROFL - I now have images in my head of some creepy guy buying Sarah's unwashed clothes so he can smell them...

10 It's more likely that Andrew Sullivan would buy Barry's unwashed clothes.
