Politico reported today on the latest RNC expense reports, which show that in total, approximately $180,000 was spent on personal "accessories" for Palin and her family during the campaign.
What is of real note, is that recently, Palin has been telling a huge lie about the clothing purchased for her by the RNC, caught on tape in network interviews stating that she only wore those clothes for three days during the GOP convention. She really is one of the dimmest bulbs to happen upon the political scene in my lifetime.
“Salons and spas, including $350 at Escape Skin Care and Day Spa in New York, were the latest unusual expenses to appear in the Republican National Committee’s coordinated expenses account with the McCain-Palin campaign, according to November reports released late Thursday.
Overall, the RNC has reported spending a total of about $180,000 for clothes and various accessories for the family of vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, Federal Election Commission records show.”POLITICO
According to the NYT, the latest RNC report also reports additional $ paid to Palin stylists. In total, a whopping $110,000 was spent on Palin's stylist, for the stylist's work during a two-month period of time. Unbelievable.
“Ms. Palin’s makeup artist, Amy Strozzi — who was nominated for an Emmy award for her cosmetics work on the television show “So You Think You Can Dance?” — was paid $32,400 by Senator John McCain’s presidential campaign between Oct. 16 and Nov. 24, the period covered by the most recent reports filed with the commission.
This amount came on top of the $36,000 she had already been paid in previous reports, dating back to September.
In addition, Ms. Palin’s traveling hair stylist, Angela Lew, was paid a total of $42,225, with $23,400 coming during the period covered by the latest reports to the commission, which were due at midnight on Thursday.”
