The RNC bought a ridiculous amount of clothes for Sarah Palin and her family during the 2008 Presidential Campaign. $150,000, to be exact.
There is obviously no love lost between the RNC and Palin. No sooner was Election Day over than lips started flapping about her using GOP lawyers as flunkies to bring her even more clothes.
And now that Caribou Barbie could not carry the day, the RNC wants every stitch of clothes back, down to the teeniest foundation garment.
I realize that the RNC is supposed to be a watchdog for profligate spending, but I don't ever recall a guard being sent out to catalog Armani suits.
She is their candidate. If they bought the clothes for her, I think she should have a reasonable expectation to keep them. It was part of the uniform, not to mention that no men have been called on the carpet in such a way.
I mean, really. It's basically used clothing. Gently used (maybe), but still. What are they going to do with used underwear, sell it on eBay?
