Republicants have short term (and long term) memory problems. They forget that they attack other candidates for the same issues that they are guilty of - and in this case far worse than a $400 haircut, and Edwards certainly was not excused for getting such an expensive do. ALL politicians who flaunt their wealth in this fashion get rightfully skewered, and the Doug R's of the world are simply ignoring facts and following their party line if they deny that. We will be the first to throw Obama under the bus if he pulled that crap. Unfortunately, the conservative hate-mongers have blinders on.

For the image that they are trying to portray with this "hockey mom", a wardrobe of this type is inappropriate to say the least.   The spin doctors LATER announced that this was for charity, but if they were genuine it would not have been an after thought. There is technical term that is used in political circles for this type of action - it is called "saving your ass".

America is finally waking up from their Republicant stupor. The conservatives are being exposed for the liars and cheats that they are. No amount of spin doctoring is going to fix this unless fundemental changes are made. Of course, they can always steal another election - which seems to be their only hope this time around.
