Heckuva job, RNC
Ugh.
This is the number one story in the blogosphere right now:
Yes, Joe Biden is imploding, but Sarah Palin’s RNC-funded wardrobe budget is the headline. The libs are claiming that some unnamed Republican National Committee donors and members are “disgusted” by the expenditures.
Are you surprised? The RNC has squandered its time and money on a lot of stupid things.
I’m with Mark Tapscott:
Every time I think the campaign professionals at the Republican National Committee can’t possibly do anything else to sink the party, they do something else that simply defies logical explanation. Like taking a candidate who epitomizes Middle American values and spending $150,000 to dress her up in Saks Fifth Avenue finery.
Apparently, they just couldn’t stand the thought of a GOP candidate for vice president actually wearing the same clothes on the campaign trail that she wears in real life. No, they had to go make her look like … one of them.
Did nobody over there think it through and realize doing this would hand Obama and the Democrats the last perfect piece of evidence of how out of touch Republicans are with the real world?
Heckuva job, RNC.
Here is the real Sarah, pre-RNC makeover:
Fortunately for the party makeover consultants, it doesn’t matter what she’s wearing.
She’s got something special that money can’t buy.
SNL’s Lorne Michael acknowledges it:
“I think Palin will continue to be underestimated for a while. I watched the way she connected with people, and she’s powerful. Her politics aren’t my politics. But you can see that she’s a very powerful, very disciplined, incredibly gracious woman. This was her first time out and she’s had a huge impact. People connect to her…

That is EXACTLY why the press is talking about her clothes. It’s a distraction because they don’t want people paying attention to what she actually said.
Do we remember shutting down a runway at LAX while Clinton waited for a Beverly Hills stylist to come and cut his hair?
Now me, I like the powder blue top with the weapon attached…
$150k on a campaign wardrobe didn’t bother me. Frankly, that’s not all that much. If she’s doing two or three events in a day, who’d begrudge her a change of clothes into something else that’s nice and suits her well? I’ve spent $500 or more on a single outfit for a special occasion, and I’m just little ol’ me.
Hillary’s spent more than $100k on a couple of dresses, I bet.
I think THIS is a distraction.
Because Piper will return to school with her classmates knowing what evil rumors the media made about her sister, baby brother and father – rumors the Obama camp did nothing to stop.
The Obama girls attend school with no media attacks made directly against them. A $790 purse hardly begins to soothe the snarky comments her classmates may hurl at Piper.
Both sides buy and wear clothes.
Politico reports in paragraph #13 that Team Obama’s and Team Palin’s clothing bills are not similar.
They reported Team Palin’s price tag, but they didn’t report Team Obama’s price tag.
Why?
Aloha,
If you wanted to comment about Bill Clinton you should have commented eight years ago.
Tit for tat after the smear of Michelle Obama’s banquet on lobster. In the case of MO, it smacked of hypocrisy for a people’s candidate’s wife to splurge on fine food.
For a female candidate to spend some money on clothes is not surprising, especially when she has been dragged through the mud so much. Leave her alone!
Ha-ha-ha-ha. Good one.

Medved is a racist who thinks slavery wasn’t all that bad. But whatev!
Saw that AlohaDude!

I know that you’re busy trying to compose that apology so it has just the right tone, but I’m afraid I haven’t got all day.
You keep bleating abouthypocrisy,the point you are missing is that John Edwards painted himself as someone who is looking out for the little guy, when his private life showed the opposite, what Gov. Palin does in her private life shows that she can relate, she lives that life. Edwards? not so much.
I bet if they checked on Michelle Obama they would find the DNC and Obama campaign has probably spend double this on her.
How much is Michelle spending on her designed for her clothing?
Not off the rack, even Neiman Marcus clothes, but clothes designed and made specifically for Michelle Obama.
And then there are expenses like this:
NEWPORT NEWS, Va.(WAVY.com)– A recent visit by presidential candidate Barack Obama to Newport News has left city taxpayers with a hefty bill, almost $30,000, mostly to pay overtime for police officers to work security at the event.
Obama drew a crowd of about 18,000 people at Victory Landing Park in Newport News two weeks ago.
Councilwoman Madeline McMillan says she is upset that the city is not even considering asking the Obama camp to reimburse city taxpayers.
“All the campaigns are well aware of the stress cities are under,” said McMillan. “And it was my hope that since Senator Obama receives federal campaign funds, he’d contribute to the city at least a portion of the cost of his unexpected visit.”
On the other side of the isle, and the other side of Hampton Roads, Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin, were just in Virginia Beach for a rally this past Monday.
Turns out their camp paid $20,000 upfront to rent out the Virginia Beach Convention center.
And all the officers who worked the event were working their normal shifts, so there was no overtime.
But we are worried about Palin’s clothes?
Cut me a break.
The RNC has been MIA in brains and actions for quite a while. It is definitely time for a new conservative party, and I vote that it be named for Ronaldus Magnus.
I wish Newt would stop already with the “duh” poling he does for that foundation and instead teach the few conservatives still left on the Hill some strategy for schooling the spawn of Satan lording over things up there.
Precisely! That’s why it is imperative every voter be reached and informed about the true consequences of having an inexperienced, unabashedly liberal candidate like Obama in the WH.
Dragged? This woman loves mud! Oh wait, you mean figuratively.
Something about a woman in a powder blue top with a rifle and muddy….
I always confuse Medved with Gene Shalit.
The Politico is a liberal rag. This is a non-issue. Forget the “Bradley effect”. After 2008 the pundits will refer to the “Palin effect” where voters voted FOR her in private. Watch and see. I may watch MSNBC just to see them meltdown.
Your lab had the good sense to skip law school…

So do a lot of white, liberal U.S. History profs!
Obama’s spiritual advisor of twenty years is a racist who teachs that white people are devils and hob-nobs with Farakhan. For some reason that does not bother you in the slightest.
Man that song takes me back. I had to listen to the whole thing. Love it!
While we are talking about hypocrisy and Edwards, you are aware that Edwards had an affair, and a love child that no one seemed interested in reporting except the National Enquirer. The same NE tried to start up a Sarah Palin affair rumor because Todd’s friend was getting a divorce. Naturally, it was assumed that Sarah had slept with Todd’s friend and that was breaking up the marriage.
When the divorce papers were looked at, there was no there there. The Palin rumor got a lot of attention BEFORE it was debuked, but Edward’s mistress and babay were KNOWN to be true by LA Times, yet they refused to say anything about it until the gossip rag cornered Johnny boy in the bathroom, and he tried to run away.
John Edwards is himself a phony in every respect, and media covered his ass. Sarah gets nothing but attacks, that turn out to be inaccurate after the headlines run for 48 hours around the world.
That enough hypocrisy for you? Think that matters a little more to our country than a campaign wardrobe bill?
I know what I see in Sarah Palin, and it’s all good. She is the anti-Edwards in every way. I know it won’t change some opinions, but that’s how I see the difference.
Spending $150,000. for one dress is haute couture. Not an entire wardrobe.
Question: Which is more important to our country. A. Sarah Palin’s clothes. Or, B. Barack Obama’s Ties to a Socialist Thug?
If you are the MSM, the answer is obviously A.
wonder what senator KKK Byrd thinks??
Obama’s spiritual advisor of twenty years is a racist, but for some reason that does not seem to bother you.
$150,000??? That’s a bit over the top isn’t it? Out of interest, how much is spent on Obama, and Michelle Obama? How much did the dems pay for Biden’s hairplugs or repeated botox injections?
Not relevant I presume..
This is what bugs you, Michelle? When what we need right now is relentless examination of the real issues — the many unasked/unanswered questions about Osama Obama at the top of the list — you’re complaining about Sarah Palin’s new wardrobe?
I expect better from you. This would be something to think about if a) the other side wasn’t protected from any scrutiny of their spending; and b) if the McCain/Palin ticket was getting even marginally fair treatment from the Obama-tanked MSM.
This is People/US magazine stuff.
BTW, the report on Michelle Obama’s snack was retracted because apparently she was not staying at the Waldorf. However, one can eat at the Waldorf without staying there, can’t one?
Just sayin’.
Here’s the difference. Doesnt Palin come from a working class family with 5 kids in a relatively rural area and just started in this race in the last two months?
As opposed to Obama and his wife who are attorneys and have had 2+ years to acquire their wardrobe over time. Or the Clintons, who are both attorneys and had years to acquire their wardrobes.
An initial expenditure to bring her up to code with the elitist/international expectations shouldnt be that much of an issue. For the 150K she proably has enough clothes to last through the winter, not just through the election.
Anyways, this party (fun, not political) is for McCain not Palin. When she is the main event and not the opening act, then I would think she can dictate whats going to happen in her campaign. Until then, she is subject to the idiot image consultants.
That the Obama camp did not even denounce.
They have a really hard time apologizing for anything don’t they?
Yeah, but probably not through room service.
Rabbid Squirrel
+ 1
I know, what with their polls and such.
Actually, as much as she turns off moderates and independents, she’s probably a wash for the ticket because she will bring out the base more than anyone could for the Maverick. He can’t win with her, can’t win without her.
She still looks phenominal…no matter what she wears.
Hubba hubba!!
So if MO gets in the white house, who is going to be the First Lady’s Weave Consultant?
How much does Obama’s people spend on his 300 ADVISORS???
You can be damn sure it’s a lot more than $150k.
Right! And with 150 million in one month’s worth of donations from who knows where – or who – ACORN running amuck on their behalf, and unrealizable “promises” of 95% of the voters getting a tax break, how much longer can they deny they are attempting to buy the election?
And by the way…just how much money has the DNC spent on MO, her overly extravagant hotel room service bills, hair, make-up, clothes (of course from the look of it they save money by just going to K-Mart and buying a few shower curtains) and the rest?
How about Big Ear’s Armani suits? What about Biden’s? You don’t expect us to believe that they are buying their own clothes off the rack (or in the bathroom section) do you?
UMMMM, if you had taken the time to read:
So, she should cover the number 1,200th story on the blogosphere to make YOU happy?

If you kill a family, you had better make sure you kill all of the kids too. One day they grow up and will seek revenge with a vengence.
You can bet Piper’s making a list as we speak. And if Palin doesnt make it to VP this time, we will for sure see Piper when she is age 16 through 24.
Fam, are you sending morris code and this (*) stands for watershed is an idiot?
You beat me to the punch, my friend.
I suppose that Peloser shops at Goodwill, right? And Obozo and Bidumb buy their suits off the rack? Doesn’t NOT US magazine regularly (glowingly) critique Michelle Obozo’s fashion sense while naming the designers she wears?
EVERY SINGLE CANDIDATE is selling an image, and appearing professional and well-turned-out doesn’t hurt. Anyone complaining about a candidate’s clothing expenses really needs to stick their head in a toilet and flush.
Polls mean nothing – with the exception of Clinton’s second term, Americans always make the right decision when up against it, a.k.a., in the voting booth; President McCain and VP Palin are golden!
Sarah on the ticket is keeping McCain from totally sliding into the dumper. If anything, the RNC handlers are keeping Sarah from being Sarah. The RNC and McCain have to stop trying to lose this election.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

McCain/Palin 08′
Take heart.. AP poll has obama/mcain tied!!
My dog must think watershed is a idiot. Smart dog!
Ooooh! Ooooh! The “blogosphere!”
I expect MM to be apply her perception to things that matter (which is how she made her reputation), not whatever is the hottest read at this second among computer nerds.
It doesn’t matter whether I always approve of her take; this is, in a very genuine sense, a “diversion,” something for the women of The View to babble about.
And if she gets tired of looking into Osama Obama’s sordid story (hard to believe; there is so much gold to mine there) and the lunacy of Biden, she could always get into the disgusting continuing story of the incarceration of Border Patrol agents Ramos and Compean.
Since the last AP-GfK survey in late September, McCain also has:
_Posted big gains among likely voters earning under $50,000 a year; he now trails Obama by just 4 percentage points compared with 26 earlier.
_Surged among rural voters; he has an 18-point advantage, up from 4.
_Doubled his advantage among whites who haven’t finished college and now leads by 20 points. McCain and Obama are running about even among white college graduates, no change from earlier.
_Made modest gains among whites of both genders, now leading by 22 points among white men and by 7 among white women.
_Improved slightly among whites who are married, now with a 24-point lead.
_Narrowed a gap among unmarried whites, though he still trails by 8 points.
McCain has cut into Obama’s advantage on the questions of whom voters trust to handle the economy and the financial crisis. On both, the Democrat now leads by just 6 points, compared with 15 in the previous survey.
Obama still has a larger advantage on other economic measures, with 44 percent saying they think the economy will have improved a year from now if he is elected compared with 34 percent for McCain.
Intensity has increased among McCain’s supporters.
A month ago, Obama had more strong supporters than McCain did. Now, the number of excited supporters is about even.
Eight of 10 Democrats are supporting Obama, while nine in 10 Republicans are backing McCain. Independents are about evenly split.
Some 24 percent of likely voters were deemed still persuadable, meaning they were either undecided or said they might switch candidates. Those up-for-grabs voters came about equally from the three categories: undecideds, McCain supporters and Obama backers.
That story was retracted by the NY Post. It never happened.
Well this is just the Dems “sticking to the issues” again. uh huh. So why isn’t Ms BO’s clothes an issue?
If we look at this another way, the RNC has pumped $150K into the economy and it didn’t come from a government bailout.
She flies a 767 home that we pay for. No not commercial. Her. In an airliner. Think $150,000 fuels it? I should look up the fuel burn on those things.
I honestly don’t care either, but I do think it’s ironic that the party that has of late been trying to assume the role of Protector of the Working Everyman spends more on clothes for a single person (who, it has to be noted, does as few press appearances as possible) over a two month period than most Working Everymen (and women) make in a year. And yes — with all the silliness over Edward’s haircut, of course this is getting attention. Same difference.
Um…no. There’s a huge difference between the $0 bill Michelle Obama didn’t accrue while not staying at the Waldorf, and $150K. (The difference being…well, $150K).
Anyway — it’s still basically non-news. I’m much more interested in coverage about the fact that Al-Qaeda members are rooting for John McCain.
What is this morris code to which you refer?
Anything like Morse code : )
Personally, I’ll vote for the candidate who shops at thriftstores – dressing for success is overrated.
I’ve always been interested in why Barack has spread some of his own money to his brother living in a shack in kenya…
To put it bluntly,being an advocate for the poor doesn’t mean you have to dress like them. It’s a waaaayyyy bigger picture than that and a lot more complicated. This is such a non-issue.
Well, that takes Bush 41 and Reagan and Carter and Ford and Nixon and Johnson and Kennedy and Eisenhower and Truman and Roosevelt off the table. Thank God.
I’m confused, though. If the 1st Gulf War and Reaganomics and the Panama Canal and the Nixon pardon and Watergate and Vietnam and the Cuban missile crisis and the Cold War and the A-bomb are out, how is it that slavery and the Crusades seem to still be in?
flaming_o,
It was a joke directed at Aloha.
One that he got.
Please – tell me that BO’s, MO’s and childrens outfits/suits didn’t run less than $250K?
Only with a media in the tank would this be a story.
And I disagree – there are times to look sharp. Nobody would have thought twice if it wasn’t raised as an issue.
Look at it this way – do you go to an interview for a job in a profession dressed in your recreational clothing? NO way.
I don’t agree with MM on this, not at all. This is not a miss on the part of RNC (despite the wealth of other mistakes).
Hey, FM. Thank goodness you did not pass gas around that ‘voice command’ software. Lord knows what image might have ended up on computer screens across the fruited plain. I bet it would have looked a whole lot like a caricature of either Obama or Biden!
You do know that, unlike Obama, President McCain is actually a war hero?
I mean, the whole concept that our Islamic enemies would root for someone who has a proven record of having defended this nation in hand-to-hand combat, over a candidate with a less than American middle name is a bit naive, is it not?
Good old nyk is here to show off his inablity to read once more.
Actually, the story says that it “appears” that this money was spent on the “family”, not on “one person”.
But what can we expect from somebody who thinks that the southern Democrats started voting Republican after 1964?
Sadly, with the exception of the self-love and the hair, Edwards doesn’t actually exist.

Palin’s wardrobe
MrScribbler,
Ask again why Michelle is off for covering this non-issue? It seems to be news.
You rack up an impressive record of idiocy. Palin has done more press appearences than have Obama, Biden, or McCain in the last month.
That pesky thing called reality keeps tripping you up.
Oops, those were quotes.
LOL. You forgot the bank account!
Do we know what happened to Rielle? That woman is a Dateline exclusive waiting to happen, it’s just a question of whether Edwards’ lawyer friends can pay her enough money not to sing.
“Appears.” “Political life.” You should change your screen name to Semantics_guy.
Obviously, the MSM would expect the Obamas to dress up to their status of a fashionably professional upper middle class urban family including a wardrobe valued at least 250K.
To the MSM and Washington elitists, the Palins are, on the hand, typical Walmart, K-Mart,Target or Salvation Army (five kids after all!) shoppers whose whose wardrobe should reflect their status of “joe-sixpack” trailer park trash including a wardrobe valued at $250.00.
MrScribbler,
When this non-news makes the news on all three network’s tonight, I will expect that you will be a man and apologize to Michelle for this thread.
I crack myself up!
Boring topic….Women’s clothes cost mucho money…….gotta pay to play.
As Ed at Hot Air stated, this is only 0.15% of RNC total coffers, so I think this is getting WAY overblown.
Another moral dilema thrown out by the Left – if you wear expensive clothes and you are a Republican, you don’t care about your fellow man!
How can Malkin absolve Palin of all responsibility here? She makes it sound like Palin was innocently sleeping while RNC operatives laid out clothes for her on her bed. I don’t think that’s a very flattering defense of your guys’ candidate, basically saying that she doesn’t even dress herself every day.
This isn’t a story because a politician is paying to look good on the campaign trial, by the way. It’s a story because Republicans have been going on for years about John Edwards’ $400 haircut. It’s a story about Republican hypocrisy. When it’s John Edwards, it supposedly demonstrates how conceited and out-of-touch he is. When it’s Sarah Palin, it only means she’s being forced to conform to some un-identified RNC boogeyman’s misguided agenda. For what it’s worth, I don’t care about her wardrobe, or McCain’s $5,000 make-up bill, or Edwards’s haircut. Could there be anything more irrelevant than criticizing a political candidates’ attention to detail towards their physical appearance, especially in this image-obsessed country? No, there couldn’t be, and yet Republicans went hog-wild about that very thing a few years ago. Now that it’s coming back around on you, maybe you’ll learn something from all this?
I won’t be holding my breath, of course.
“Family” != “one person”.
You should change your screen name to “Moronic Leftist Troll With Delusions of Intellectual Grandeur Who Is Incapable Of Comprehending Simple English Words”.
Ah, now I see why you stick with some simple little three letter handle.
yes, you are correct. Oh and please, feel free to hold your breath until your face turns blue, kick your legs too. yaawwwnnnn
Digshot, shouldn’t you be lecturing us on how the white man created AID’s to kill the brothers?
I’m glad Gov. Palin got some beautiful clothes to campaign in. They’re her working clothes, and she’s doing a terrific job. I donated to the McCain/Palin campaign, and it’s fine by me if my little bit went towards buying her clothes. For good or ill, appearances are important in a campaign, and dressing well does look professional, competent, and confident.
Wow. You are so angry. If I’m such a moron WHY do you spend so much time trying to get my attention when I’m here? I obviously find you amusing but not worth debating with. You’ve said that you think I’m an idiot — so why bother addressing me? Let’s just ignore each other, you and I. Agreed? Agreed!
Every time I get a note from the RNC I respond and tell them how they have lost my vote for their years of incredible stupidity and abandoning conservative principles.
Alas, here is yet another ridiculous excursion into the realm of utter stupidity and cluelessness.
What happened to these people? What planet did they come from?
With all due respect, nyk, you obviously read why some are “supporting” him, right? For those of you who didn’t read the link, these islamofacists believe McCain will continue the downslide of the economy, which is good for them. Forgive me if I don’t put my faith in people who not only want to kill me and my family, but who think their reward for doing it is 72 virgins awaiting them in heaven. My concern is for the people here who, in the name of change and hatred of GW Bush, are willing to put a man who has absolutely no experience whatsoever in charge of our country. More importantly, I’m concerned that it has become acceptable to call anyone who doesn’t support Obama or asks legitimate questions about Obama, a racist.
Digshot:
Your comparison would work if it weren’t for the glaring hypocrisy of John Edwards who panders to the politics of envy mindset. He constantly blathered about “Two Americas”, and how the rich exploit the poor, while he got $400.00 haircuts.
Sarah Palin doesn’t. Heck, she’s like one of us and probably shops for bargains at Nordstrom’s Rack, with five kids and all…
If his royal dopeyness picked Governor Palin the left would be fawning over her. tell me different and and your full of poo. Instead they are stuck with a brain dead gafftastic moron…
they’re just jealous.

McCain/Palin 08′
Like so much of what the MSM
makes up“uncovers” about McCain and Palin, it’s a damned if they do-damned if they don’t scenario.Osama Obama’s message doesn’t work for me, and it has nothing to do with his clothes. If he wore workman’s coveralls, he’d still be a dangerous fool.
Palin’s message does work for me, and if she was standing up there in Levi’s and a padded hunter’s vest it would make no difference.
But for the media (and some citizens) clothing makes the candidate. It’s certainly fair to try to make your candidate look good.
And if we’re going to go negative on that, one could include Mr End Poverty Now, Jesse Jackson. Did his adherents ever question his Rolex(es) and fancy four-figure duds? Nuh-uh. But they can slam Palin because her campaign wanted her to dress at the same level as the opposition.
Still, it’s a distraction. It’s putting MM behind the curve (look at NRO and her own HA) on dissecting the issues that matter to all of us.
Exactly. Because honestly, I really don’t care how much money those clothes cost, or Hillary and Edwards’ haircuts, or any of these other stories.
its not like she’ll be keeping the wardrobe anyway, they’ll probably auction it off after the election, and probably make more than they paid for it.
What makes you think that? I’m amused that you, who are so self-evidently a very stupid person, are also so oblivious to your stupidity. If you want to hang out at a site where people will let you post drivel and praise you for it, you should head back to Kos.
If you want to come here and tell leftist fables then don’t snivel if you get called on it.
