On Palin's Extravagant Wardrobe

Marc Ambinder reports that Republican donors are furious with the McCain campaign having spent more than $150,000 on Palin’s wardrobe and makeup since she was chosen:

The Democrats are going to have a lot more fun with this than is prudent, but the heat for this story will come from Republicans who cannot understand how their party would do something this stupid … particularly (and, it must be said, viewed retroactively) during the collapse of the financial system and the probable beginning of a recession.

Come on, people, it was clearly the campaign’s way of providing fiscal stimulus to the economy. We are all Keynesians now!

This calls for some serious spin.
