How many gimmicks has the McCain campaign pulled just in the last two months?
Edited on Mon Oct-27-08 11:59 AM by Blue_Roses
Between "suspending the campaign to race back to D.C.," to picking Palin to begin with, this campaign has continued to grasp at one strategy only to see it fail time and time again. It's really pitiful.

So, this morning I hear Palin has ditched the Neiman Marcus attire and began sporting her own "consignment" duds:eyes: all for the sake of being "down to earth with Main St."

...and what gets me, is she had to make a "showing" of it. This woman goes beyond the PALE!

This McCain campaign is just one big gimmick!

1. She's a selfish, greedy, completely un-ethical person.
I'll bet it will come out that she ASKED for that $150,000 and a stylist and make-up artist for the campaign. She is trying to say it was forced on her, but that doesn't jive with her past behavior as an unethical Governor who abused tax-payer money to fly her kids around to various conferences, etc. all on the tax-payer's dime. She thinks she's OWED extra frills because she won the governorship and is now the VP nominee. She should have been wearing her own damn clothes since the beginning of her VP campaign, just like Barack Obama and Joe Biden have been doing.

2. That is just silly at this point. Too late now.
If you have nice clothes, wear them!

4. Their campaign is so screwed up, 7 days left, talking about CLOTHES
Not jobs. Not healthcare. Not foreign policy. CLOTHES.
