As far as I'm concerned, there is no mishegoss, and focusing on this just makes Democrats look dumb.
Part of her job now is to look good. She's appearing before thousands of people in person and millions of people on television every day. Barack Obama and John McCain both wear thousand-dollar suits all the time - and rightly so. Part of a politician's job is to project an image.
While she is the governor of Alaska and I'm sure it pays well, I'm sure it doesn't pay new designer suit every day money. While Obama (through his books) and McCain (through his wife) have fortunes of their own, it doesn't seem fair to make Palin go through this huge but necessary expense just because McCain picked her out of the blue.
There's just so much to hate about Palin, why concentrate on this?
