... if you don't get to keep the clothes?
The one thing I really like about Sarah Palin is her wardrobe. As a big-busted woman myself, I know how hard it is to find good-looking professional clothes that fit properly. Lots of things work well when you stand in front of a mirror, but bunch and grab awkwardly as soon as you move your arms. Or you're stuck with shapeless smocks. I've been admiring Palin's clothes (if nothing else about her). Granted, they no doubt cost much more than I'm willing to spend, but if designers can make high-end clothes for that body shape, maybe the rest of the fashion industry can figure out how to make them for the rest of us.
As annoyed as I was with the media's obsession with Hillary's pantsuits, I've been equally annoyed that they haven't paid as much attention to Palin's look. Not because I think it reflects on her, but because it would be a service to all hour-glass women.

I do, however, have some qualms about the use of political campaign money, and the hypocrisy of the RNC dumping that much high-fashion money on the family when they made such a big deal out of much more moderate and appropriate spending by Democrats.....

What's ironic, to me anyway, about the RNC investment is who it was targeted at. That kind of fashion is an inside-the-beltway, big-wigs and donors look. They were grooming her to appeal to their own sensibilities, not those of voters.

But you're right, Palin does look very good in those clothes, and it would be nice if there were more decently priced clothes out there for all body shapes -- big *and* small chested. I'm flat as a board and can't find a thing to wear that doesn't sag.
