Palin jacket auctioned to benefit charities

Want to buy a red jacket to benefit the Fisher House Foundation and the Wounded Warrior Project?

It’s not just any red jacket. It’s the red jacket Sarah Palin wore for the photo of the cover of her new book, “Going Rogue.”

Palin donated it for auction through radio talk show host Laura Ingraham’s show and Web site. All proceeds will go to benefit the two military charities. It’s getting pricey — as of the afternoon of Dec. 10, the bid had reached $7,500.

Bidding continues through 5 a.m. Eastern Time Dec. 18.

1. I'd rather have one of her Carhartt jackets.
Those look pretty cool! And they're less than $7500.
