Sarah Palin’s clothes
Alright. I couldn’t resist any longer, even though I know I’m late. I’m really, really surprised by the commentary on this, for two reasons.

1) I don’t understand how people think that Palin’s clothes will hurt her image with hockey moms and blue collar people. If anything, it should help that image. This is a woman who is so down to earth/blue collar that she didn’t have clothes to campaign in. I think most people can relate with that. Most people can relate to having a new job and wondering how you’re going to pay for the clothes you need to wear to work.

On the other hand, here’s what I’m surprised hasn’t been an issue. Republican donors should be upset. Here we have Obama and the Dems outspending McCain and the Republicans by huge amounts. Granted 150k isn’t that much in terms of presidential election campaigning, BUT, if you’re the guy that donated $75k to the Republicans, would you really want it being spent on clothes for Palin?
