Spending some money yes, but $150,000! If they bought 1 new outfit for each day between the convention and the election - The Calico Cat Coalition Oct 22, 11:15 6
- i bet she has more than one appearance per day. formal events. a TON of suits. shoes, accessories, coats, etc.. -- nm - Andie Oct 22, 11:18 2
  - yup, those suits alone can run $800-1200 a piece... - znufrii Oct 22, 11:19 1
    - Wait a minute the suit's SHE'S wearing? Cause I'm pretty sure you can get the exact same thing at Macy's for $200. - Jim Oct 22, 11:20
- she is whistlestopping in 2-4 cities every day. it's tough to find a 20 minute dry cleaner :) -- nm - peglegpete Oct 22, 11:17
- fora per-outfit cost, it's not unheard of. -- nm - znufrii Oct 22, 11:16 1
  - Only if you are an elitist. -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Oct 22, 11:19
She was announced as the VP candidate rougly 67 days prior to election day. That's $2238 worth of clothes per day. - ty97 Oct 22, 11:15 5
- Word. New wardrobe? I'm down with that. But $2k per day? That's a bit much. -- nm - Jim Oct 22, 11:16 4
  - Personally, I don't care how the McCain campgain/GOP spends it campaign money. I just can't see the 'not unreasonable' argument -- nm - ty97 Oct 22, 11:17 3
    - I'm with you. I don't really care, I just want to know what the fuck she's wearing that costs that much. - Jim Oct 22, 11:19 2
      - Takes a lot of $$$ to make a silk purse... -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Oct 22, 11:20 1
        
        How much of the $150k do you suppose went for lipstick? nm - Jim Oct 22, 11:21
exactly. - znufrii Oct 22, 11:13 4
- and women have extra pressure to look good. -- nm - loosilu Oct 22, 11:14 3
  - I don't think Hillary used campaign money on her outfits -- nm - The Calico Cat Coalition Oct 22, 11:17 1
    - why would you think that? i bet it's a pretty standard campaign expense. -- nm - Andie Oct 22, 11:20
  - but 150K? - Reagen Oct 22, 11:15
