Sexist?
so now I'm being told that discussing Palin's expensive wardrobe is sexist...

their reasoning:

because we are not talking about Obama's clothing expenditures. :rofl:

2. Huh? Sure - lets talk about Obama's clothing expenditures
The cost is nowhere near what Palin herself (that's excluding McCain and his $500 shoes) spent on her wardrobe to this point. She's probably spent much,much more - those expenditures only went through the period immediately following the conventions.

Plus, let's talk Obama's suits - made in the USA by one of the last truly American manufacturers.

So let them open that Pandora's box.

3. I would actually
be kind of pissed if the DNC did this with Obama/Biden, since I have given them money, but Politico confirms that the DNC has done no such thing...and David Gergen said last night that it was not normal for a party to giving candidates a clothing allowance.
