Maybe you “would have been thrilled if she got her clothes from Wal-Mart,” but most observers would not have. Women have to look the part much more than do men, especially women who are on television. Even with men it is important. That’s why Obama wears $2000 suits. But with women it is much more important. Governor Palin not only has to dress very well, but she has to be careful not to over do it. That is hard, and it is expensive.
It’s not an issue to me one way or the other. It’s just something else for the dems to find fault with, that’s all. You know - two Americas.
