Though I've posted remarks and links on this thread, I realized just now catching up with it that I didn't state my position. As much as I think she's unqualified and an insult to the process, she has been put in a position where she has to dress the part. The news I read said that she is not rich and didn't have the income to purchase the clothes. She does look good in the garments selected, while she's in the spotlight I don't think anyone expects her to wear a schmata.

There are plenty of other things about Sarah Palin that are objectionable; I couldn't care less about the clothes. She's a personality now, an entertainer of sorts. She has a costume budget. Big deal.

She ought to keep the clothes--when this is all over, she will have earned them, having done McCain's dirty work for all of these weeks.
