Enough already. The MSM is absolutely dead set on destroying Palin. I am an Obama supporter/voter but have had it with the way Palin is treated by the MSM.

I can't tell you how much respect I have lost for ABC and others. Keep it up and you won't have any viewership at all.

Palin's traveling hair stylist Angela Lew, the fourth highest paid individual during that time, was paid $10,000 over two weeks in October for what the campaign called "communications consulting."

=============

well THAT explains A LOT.

HEY BABE, I'll do your make up fo r $400 ... eh? WHAT A BARGAIN... what do you say?

Kris, I agree. I think after teh election, Palin should get her own talk show.

I like her for THAT>

Women are expensive. News at 11.

seriously??? wow. with the mainstream media reporting on things like this, now i want mcain to win MORE THAN EVER. its all part of the "perfect storm" being created by the media. absolutelt ridiculous. could you imagine the chaos if mccain does witn this TIGHT election?! it would be like the first o.j. simpson trial and the 2000 election at the same time. thus, HUGE news. perfect storm.

Why are you covering this really frivolous story but you are ignoring Palin's comments from her NBC interview. She specifically refused to say that the criminals who bomb abortion clinics are terrorists. Apparently she believes they are not because "terrorists" attack "innocent" people and those folks who work in abortion clinics are not "innocent", in her view. This is a really sick, dangerous and yes "unAmerican" point of view, especially coming from someone who wants to be our Vice-President. More importantly, McCain sat right there and said nothing while she made this outrageous distinction.

tom...

read through the lines. she didnt want to comment any furthur on it because it is a very touchy subject. the question was, undoubtebly, asked to her to try to back her in a corner and say something that would hurt her. this is dirty journalism at its finest, and a politician answering it. its not rocket science, you just have to understand who is asking the questions and their agendas, and who is answering the question.

Obama is spending $29 million a week. Do some research into that, cowards.

mack...

now why would the LIBERAL media ask the democrat in the race the same question??!! that would be insane!!!!!!!!!

And we were outraged with John Edwards paying $400 per cut? Assuming Mr. Edwards had his hair cut once a week at $400 a pop, Mrs. Palin's budget for two weeks would have allowed him about 1.5 years of weekly cuts. Gad!

ABC you're a bunch of pigs. You wouldn't see news if it slapped you in the face. You're reporting on make-up, yet Obama is spending 293,000 an HOUR which he's partially getting via fraudulent online web donations. Why aren't you reporting that OBAMA, and all democrats for that matter, have turned off the AVS systems in their campaign sites so that people can donate fraudulently under different names to 1) avoid donation limits, and 2) so foreigners can pay for our elections. WAKE UP ABC. Better to report this now than after the elections and have your dream candidate IMPEACHED.

exactly WHO was outraged?! i could give a crap less, i rather would like to know why the media decides to report on issues like this?? what are their agendas? thats the only thing we need to pay attention to on stories like this. and if you agree, just look at how 90 percent of stories like this just happen to be against a republican. odd isnt it???

Obama wears designer suits.

Obama worked out at the Ritz instead of visiting troops in Germany.

Obama campaign uses campaign funds for his hair and makeup but the media won't vet his FEC reports.

The media is so biased they have destroyed our democracy.

Obama, Pelosi, Reid with 60 senate seats, liberal media.

No checks and balances this is now a one party nation.

McCain would check Pelosi's spending and there would be oversight. They would have to compromise in the senate on judges.

Obama would be able to pick any judges with 60 senate seats and would go along with pelosi and reid's spending.

Now wait, while I think the clothes story has been overblown (Obama supporter here) I do have a serious question.

Why on earth would any campaign spend more on the VP nominee's hair and makeup "advisors" than they would on the Presidential nominee's foreign policy and senior communications staffer?

That just blows me away. Not because you'd might think either. I'm not "hating" on Palin. I'm criticizing the people who run the campaign. The foreign policy and communications people are EXTREMELY important. They are crucial members of any campaign.

I realize that hair and makeup takes talent. Having been involved with theater for many years, I know that it takes talent to make people look good for the camera. Any candidate, and especially a woman, needs to make a positive impression on the public. (there's that nasty double standard, women must look good) I find no fault with the campaign making sure they both look the part, including clothes.

But wouldn't you all agree that foreign policy trumps makeup in importance and that the talent needed to be a good foreign policy advisor is much deeper and harder to come by?

I truly believe that this campaign is completely disfunctional and it's no wonder that McCain has not been able to find a message that works. If the management can't see that foreign policy needs to be good and well paid, then there is nothing that can be done to save them.

This makes me sick!!! this is more than what i earn in a year before taxes!!! Totally Sick!

Sarah Palin is a SHAM, just like Joe The Plumber. If she is the best the GOP has, they are in trouble in the future.

Sarah Palin to release medical records today.

Tim,

MAYBE THE MEDIA SHOULD JUST SIT DOWN AND LET PRETTY SARAH HAND THEM A LIST OF QUESTIONS THAT SHE CAN ANSWER. IT WOULD BE LESS AGONIZING FOR THE VIEWERS.

Ah, hear that sweet sound??

That is the sound of Republicans writhing, twisting and spinning, as they continue on their death march until election day!

Just music to my ears! What is even better is all those cockroaches like Rush, Hannity, etc., will all soon be forced back under their slimy rocks from where they came.

And soon "my friends" on November 4th under our new President Barrack Obama, we will finally have the America we all used to know and love back again!!

God willing... Now get out and vote!

"mack...

now why would the LIBERAL media ask the democrat in the race the same question??!! that would be insane!!!!!!!!!"

Zero integrity and journalistic ability, just like their Messiah has Zero experience. They're more concerned with Palin's shoes than they are with Obama's racist, terrorist and marxist friends.
