"Governor Palin is focused on her duties as governor of the state of Alaska.

With that said, news reports concerning purchases of services and accessories are disappointing considering Governor Palin did not authorize the expenditures made on behalf of the vice presidential campaign. The Governor was not consulted about these immaterial and inconsequential decisions as she was busy focusing on the substantive areas of the campaign and running the state of Alaska. The decisions reflected in this disclosure are financially poor decisions made by campaign staffers hired by the campaign and not the Governor. The Governor expected judicious decisions to be made and they weren't.

She is absolutely appalled at the news and the amount of money reportedly spent on the vice presidential campaign. To this day, the Governor has not seen a list of expenses for the campaign and its staff, and she does not know who benefitted from all the expenditures reported.

"The campaign has now ended and Governor Palin has moved forward and is concerned with tackling the challenges confronting the people of Alaska."

The governor seems mighty anxious to "move forward" -- that was her response on Troopergate, as well. "Nothing to see here, move along."

3. "She is appalled ..." ???

"APPARALED ..." would be more like it!---- about 150,000 bucks worth of apparel! So WHEN will she auction it off for a "worthy charity", as she had promised when it was first disclosed??

4. Is Sarah a granny yet?

How's Bristol? She dragged that poor little Piper everywhere, while lugging that baby Trig, poor thing. Cheapest use of kids as props since Michael Jackson was on the front pages.

Such scummy behavior. Utterly distasteful.

And people cheer her?

Are they that 23% I keep hearing about? Because they've got to be stopped.

Some suspect she is a stealth GILF.
