by Man, keeping costs down in the Bush economy is only for the little Joe Six Packs out there. Bible Spice doesn't have to open her wallet to get a spiffy, pricey wardrobe and makeover courtesy of the RNC.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 campaign has declined to comment on the expenditures. And they expect us to believe they know how to manage our economy and our tax dollars? It's also noted that there were no expenses of this magnitude prior to Palin's surprise veep pick. Oh, and Bible Spice wasn't the only one with new duds...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.
Macy's in Minneapolis, another store fortunate enough to be situated in the Twin Cities that hosted last summer's Republican National Convention, received three separate payments totaling $9,447.71.BTW, "elitist" Michelle Obama buys off-the-rack (e.g., the dress that she wore on The View was $148), and looks damn good in it without costing the campaign a fortune. You'll recall that Cindy McCain's ensemble at the Republican National Convention cost a mind-boggling $300K.The entries also show a few purchases at Pacifier, a top notch baby store, and Steiniauf & Stroller Inc., suggesting $295 was spent to accommodate the littlest Palin to join the campaign trail.
