Gov. Palin: A Cinderella Story
Seriously – gets called up out of nowhere to be the queen (vice president) of the realm by the man who would be king, and gets dressed up in finery for the part! The only thing missing from this story is Prince Charming (Todd the First Dude is a handsome guy, but unfortunately, he’s not the prince), and perhaps not regrettably at all, it doesn’t look very much like McCain will get the nod either. Well. I hope she gets to keep the clothes.
Here’s Maureen Dowd on the topic:
Politico broke the news that the Republican National Committee spent over $150,000 on a “Pretty Woman”-style shopping spree for Palin, including about $75,000 at Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis and nearly $50,000 at Saks Fifth Avenue in New York and St. Louis.
Palin advisers did their best to spin the fashion explosion during the economic implosion, telling The Times that she needed new outfits to match the climate changes across 50 states.
Seriously – if anyone wants to have me run for vice president and provide me with an all new wardrobe – I’m available. Call me.
