I think the entire premise of this thread is that the real Sarah Palin is clearly the one to spend $150k on clothing. Assuming that everything in that story is true, she's a politician at heart with a solid side helping of celebrity, and all of her unsophisticated hockey mom stuff is just hockey mom stuff. That doesn't make her any better informed generally or politically, but I think it's pretty apparent that she's not anything remotely close to an everyman.
I don't even know what to do with your list of talking points that compromises the second half of your post. I think the point about her accepting the clothes (whether or not SHE actually bought them) has been made. The rest of that is completely irrelevant.
