BUT...it's not about that....connect the dots if you will:
When we are going thru economic hard times, it's hard to swallow hearing about someone spending 150K+ in a whole month when that is their whole salary plus some. You don't reach out to Joe and Jane Six pack that way. If you said you was a hockey mom and you went to Wal Mart then somehow you got to relect that without going overboard because you just don't graduate from Wal Mart to Neiman Marcus and Sak's over night.
It's also harder to swallow and accept that kind of spending when you hear about companies like AIP taking bailout money and frivolously spending it while tearing down your opponent and his tax plan.
And to think, McCain has a nerve to get mad that Obama is outspending him 3 to 1 but really, how can you get mad when you are using that money to prop up your running mate?
And to think, the excuse the GOP can give is that at the end, she will donate those clothes to 'charity'.
You all know she is keeping those clothes.
RRRRiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
Hope they saved some of those reciepts.

Just more proof to the argument that women spend too much on clothes, particularly designer labels....heh!
