There has been a lot of commotion recently about Sarah Palins clothes. According to The LA Times, “the RNC coughed up a whopping $150,000 to outfit/accessorize Palin and her family for the campaign trail.” Spending thousands of dollars at places like Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Barney’s and even two baby clothing stores.
Really? With the huge financial crisis going on, the media harps on Palin’s clothes. What people don’t realize is that all the clothes purchased for Palin and her family will go to a charity after the campaign. There has been a lot of speculation on why the media continues to cast Palin into the spotlight. If Palin was a man would we really care about where the clothes were purchased or how much they cost? We haven’t in the past and it’s pretty sexist to discuss Palin’s attire.
