Sarah Palin sure has some cute clothes--- I love that red leather jacket... but should the campaign contributes really have paid for that? I mean really, $150,000??? At that price they should at least have had some say in which outfits she bought. Not only that, the money was taken from the joint fund for Palin and McCain's campaigning! And thousands have been spent already on her hair and makeup! I thought politics were meant to be about brains and ideals, not clothes and hair and makeup. As the first woman to be running for such a high office, Sarah Palin has the duty to make it not just about her superficial glamour and glitz. When people have such a hard time taking her seriously anyways, she is merely compounding their perception of her "I'm-just-a-face-on-the-campaign-I-don't-actually-have-a-brain" image. I have no problem at all with her dressing up to look sophisticated to fit the part, and if she needs a little monitary aid for that, that is fine. However, this is not where the money should have come from, and the amount of money taken is ludicrous. Maybe this is why McCain is falling so far behind Obama in funding... red leather jackets and well-applied mascara.

Don't worry, I still love clothes and makeup, and I even like her clothes and makeup... but time and place, please, Palin.
