The queen in waiting couldn't even wait to be elected VP. Palin has gone out and dropped $155,000 on clothing.

...... I'm one who clings to her priceless comfortable shoes, and will have them resouled until the top-side 'dies'.... after that happens, I'm sure I'll find another purpose for them.... LOL
I call that "enduring shoe use" ....Recycler of
Do "we" know the GOP-donators are paying for this?
I don't have a link, but I am certain it was the RNC who came out with the statement and it seems like a fair assumption they are greatly financed by donations.

From your link:
The RNC is allowed to spend up to $19 million in "coordinated expenses" with the campaign. In September, it spent a a total of $4.4 million. The clothing and styling was part of that, but most was spent on postage for campaign mailings.
Federal campaign finance law prohibits the use of campaign funds for personal use, but it defines personal use as any expense "that would exist irrespective of the candidate's campaign or duties as a federal officeholder."

Same here :)
