Spent on Clothes

The husband of Sarah Palin says the Republican Party's lavish spending on her wardrobe during the presidential campaign was out of our control. Todd Palin was asked about the more than $150,000 that the Republican National Committee spent on clothes. It was also spent on accessories and beauty services. The husband defended his wife. He defended her by saying that she was focused on preparation for her debate with Joe Biden. Sarah Palin and Republican presidential nominee John McCain faced a lot of angry people. There are over the tens of thousands of dollars. This money was spent at high endstores to dress the Alaska governor and her family. Some of the purchases included a $75,062 shopping spree at Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis. Anotherone was for $49,425 from Saks Fifth Avenue. Some of the clothing had to be returned right away. This was because there were the wrong sizes. Thats what the McCain-Palin campaign said at the time. The Republican National Committee has said the remaining items would be donated to charity. Todd Palin told the magazine that his wife had been through tough campaigns before becoming McCain's running mate. Thats all I know about this.
