Politically, you either like Sarah Palin or you're terrified for the future of the United States of America and considering moving to Canada not that big a fan.
But the Alaska Governor sure is rocking the fashion world.
Since joining the Republican ticket at the end of August, the V.P. contender has been seen sporting in a bevy of trendy suits, chic heels and jackets, et cetera.
Check out some of these Sarah Palin fashion highlights!
Interestingly, for the self-proclaimed "Joe Six Pack" candidate, Sarah's wardrobe from September 2008 has cost in the neighborhood of $150,000 - $25,000 more than her salary as governor (which is still higher than almost everybody else's).
No, really. The bills at Saks Fifth Avenue in New York ($49,425.74) and the Minneapolis Neiman Marcus store ($75,062.63) weren't small. Trig Palin even rolls in a $295 stroller now. Good to see those RNC campaign funds put to good use!
No word on whether Levi Johnston scored some new hockey gear.

I regret voting Obama now. Should have voted the attractive Republican.

For anyone that wants to know. That $150,000 was spent on not only Sarah Palin but her entire family for 3 months of Presidential campaigning. That’s 3 months of being in the middle of the media spot light. Being criticized for everything under the sun, I’m surprised they haven’t said anything about how she blows her nose or something like that.
My Boyfriend and my brother went down to the men’s warehouse to get some cheap suits for an event. These were basic inexpensive suits, jacket, shirt, tie, belt, pants, no shoes. Total = $1,000. That was for two suits, and those were just two inexpensive suits. Now imagine being in a presidential campaign, they probably couldn’t wear a single one of those outfits more than once during that entire three months.
So were talking about how Palin spent that $150,000 on outfits, how bout the $7 million Obama just spent on 30 minutes of broadcasting time, now honestly was that necessary? Or how about the $1006 afternoon snack Obama’s wife had. Now honestly what could have possibly been eaten that cost $1006 as a snack??? And finally do you really think that Obama’s suits are going to be cheap $500 suits, I think not.

Has anyone itemized Obama and Biden's wardrobe expenses? I can PROMISE YOU that they ARE NOT rolling around in self-funded suits from Men's Wearhouse!
This coverage of Palin is totally SEXIST and BIASED! Sarah Palin has fantastic personal style and here is a great article that talks all about it: http://www.bettyconfidential.com/ar/h/a/a02394.html
So, why don't you start talking about what a great ROLE MODEL and ICON Palin is and stop bashing her for "sins" she has never even committed. BOTH the Republicans AND the Democrats have bought wardrobes for the candidates - there is NOTHING wrong with this.
I haven't even decided who I am voting for but this type of media coverage is not helping Obama.

Why is Bristol (unlike the rest of the Palin family) being hidden every since the announcement that she was pregnant?
Her grandparents (the Heaths) are doing interviews and even Levi and his mother have done interviews, photos,etc and been sighted by the press.
Bristol Palin should supposively be 7+ months pregnant, yet somehow she is invisible while her sisters and Trig are paraded around as campaign props. Her daughters have missed the entire school year thus far while they campaign around with Sarah. Who's helping Bristol deal with teen pregnancy, dropping out of school etc. What kind of parent(s) would make these choices while hiding her other child????
