Now we know why Palin was in tears last night

.
Palin was teary eyed last night not because they didn’t win the election, it was because they wouldn’t let her speak

Both Palin and McCain knew they were likely yo lose last night, they were not delusional.

If you watch McCain’s speech you’ll see it was well written and he was nicely prepared to deliver it, there was no disappointment in his voice or his manner.

Sarah on the other hand looked disappointed, now we know why, they wouldn’t let her speak;

— “McCain himself rarely spoke to Palin during the campaign, and aides kept him in the dark about the details of her spending on clothes because they were sure he would be offended. Palin asked to speak along with McCain at his Arizona concession speech Tuesday night, but campaign strategist Steve Schmidt vetoed the request.”

After you have fun with that article, give this one a go;

Palin’s behavior goes beyond the "pale" (funny how that word seems appropriate when talking about "Palin")

She spent far more on clothes then reported, she had aids use their election credit cards so she could keep buying, she was told to buy three outfits and she went on to buy for her entire family from the most expensive stores around;

One senior aide said that Nicolle Wallace had told Palin to buy three suits for the convention and hire a stylist. But instead, the vice presidential nominee began buying for herself and her family — clothes and accessories from top stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus. According to two knowledgeable sources, a vast majority of the clothes were bought by a wealthy donor, who was shocked when he got the bill. Palin also used low-level staffers to buy some of the clothes on their credit cards. The McCain campaign found out last week when the aides sought reimbursement. One aide estimated that she spent ‘tens of thousands’ more than the reported $150,000, and that $20,000 to $40,000 went to buy clothes for her husband.

I guess she has become the republican I love to hate.
