Since "dress" is an issue in this thread, how much has Obama spent on clothing?

I think a person who is "normal" one day and in the national spotlight the next, with an expectation of appearing a certain way everyday - has a higher urgency to invest in clothing. A person who has been in the national spotlight for a number of years may have invested the same amount or more just spread over a wider period of time. Am I to gather from some of the comments here and on MSNBC that you folks don't understand why an investment in clothing needed to be made and needed to be made by the McCain campaign?
