Sarah dumps RNC's fancy outfits, goes back to basics

Sarah Palin dumps the RNC's fancy threads and goes back to her consignment shop clothes from Alaska, thoroughly ticked at the whole affair she had nothing to do with. Can you blame her?

[T]he final straw for Palin and her allies was the news that the campaign had reported spending $150,000 on her clothes, turning her, again, into the butt of late-night humor.

“She never even set foot in these stores,” the senior Republican said, noting Palin hadn’t realized the cost when the clothes were brought to her in her Minnesota hotel room.

“It’s completely out-of-control operatives,” said the close ally outside the campaign. “She has no responsibility for that. It’s incredibly frustrating for us and for her.”

Jeri Thompson nukes Colmes, defends Palin’s wardrobe expenses

Jeri Thompson, Fred Thompson's beautiful wife, shows she's got brains and wit, not to mention guts as she rips Alan Colmes a new one as he obsesses on Sarah Palin's wardrobe. Jeri tries to speak about Team Sarah but Colmes keeps interrupting. She doesn't let him get away with it and Colmes slinks away while Sean Hannity picks up the interview. Two tough GOP women for the future. How about a Palin-Thompson (Jeri not Fred) ticket in 2012!
