Sarah Palin's Private Photographer Has Seen It All
Citizen Palin 4 President ^ | Shushannah Walshe

Posted on 06/24/2010 7:11:11 AM PDT by MaxCUA

Shealah Craighead works in pictures, not words, but she's got a lot of good Sarah Palin stories. Here's one from this winter: It's Valentine's Day, and Palin is spending it at the Daytona 500. As Palin is greeted by the usual crush of fans, Craighead and other members of Palin's retinue are eyeing another celebrity in attendance, a certain dreamy jazz musician-slash-actor. Afterward, Craighead can't resist the opportunity for some girl talk.

"You just sat next to Harry Connick Jr. for 10 minutes! Isn't he so dreamy?"

"Isn't he!?" replies Palin, laughing.

The stuff of scandal, it's not -- but it does help explain the role Craighead plays in Palinmania. Since shortly after John McCain tapped the then-Alaska governor as his running mate in 2008, Craighead has been Palin's personal photographer, the chief documentarian of both the public and private sides of her emergence as a singular mix of grassroots force and big-ticket

I didn’t know she claimed the PAC was a clearing house for campaign contributions. I learn something new every day....

At a homeschool conference recently a woman did a double take when she saw my husband...for a moment she thought Todd Palin was there. Lucky me:)!

You are no creep for posting such a harmless photo. I can’t imagine why anyone would object.

“If I was Sarah I wouldn’t give a dime to the GOP losers, good for her.”

Are you referring to the 20 candidates she endorsed?

Picky picky picky. I would gladly pay for Sarahs entire wardrobe if she needed me to. Besides her photographer is needed to keep Sarah in the news or her endorsement of these candidates wouldn’t mean as much.

Er....bobby-we know you don't like Sarah. Probably only the REAL DEAL gets her as men go, imo, , that is. Otherwise, her goodness just reminds them of their mothers.

That said, ya gotta ADMIT that ELEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS does not go far considering the TRAVEL and HOTEL and PROTECTION SERVICES she has to use and employ as she TRAVELS to public endorsements of candidates. It ain't free. And really, bobby, this fussy compliant over eleven thousand dollars she used for her political endorsement work as she traveled around the nation? Please. Bet you fussed about the wardrobe the handlers dressed her in when they realized her Alaskan downhome suits were not fancy enough for campaigning as a VP. Bet cha did. Didn't ya?

“I didn’t know she claimed the PAC was a clearing house for campaign contributions. I learn something new every day....”

Generally that's what PAC’s are for, unfortunately most use them as a slush find for personal expenses, paying political aides and garnering political favors. That's why I never donate to PAC’s.

I'm not saying Palin is evil, just that she is like every other politician...morally ambiguous and compromised.

Anyone think Palin’s wardrobe is being furnished out that PAC?

I don't think anyone really cares except for the dimwit DUmmies and KOSmetologists that were floating false accusations about her wardrobe during the campaign.

Here is the FAQ page from SaraPAC. I don't see anything about giving money to anybody.

Did she get a boob job? I don’t recall them ever seeming that large?

No, just the GOP coffers, hopefully her goal is to remake the GOP and thus destroy it from the inside.

She’s not wearing a dark bra. If she was, it would be unmistakable in the front (the cup). What you’re seeing is the shadows the shirt is giving from the fabric.

Certain clothes make boobs look bigger. The gathered fabric on this top would have that effect. Her tailored jackets would hide it.

No, it’s just her stance is all, she’s turning across to look back across her stride, this would happen to anybody, she is not the kind of person that would do such a thing.

She shouldn’t wear a dark bra with a white top.

No one called you a creep, but that you’re continual posting of the Palin tight t-shirt, DD boob shot was “creepy”.

It still is, but keep posting it so you and the other couple dozen dirty old men on FR can continue to get a tingle up their leg off it.

You do Palin no good with it.

While I do not agree with Bob J's posts or contention, to be fair, that is what this means:

SarahPac will support local and national candidates who share Gov. Palin's ideas and goals for our country.
