McCain's funds rapidly decreasing

McCain used the public finnacing campaign system to get funds and therefore as a restirction, and as reported in this article only has about 12 million out of the 84 million he got to spend in the last days of the election, while Obama had over 150 million in September, becayse he did not choose the public finnace system. The article also said that Sarah Palin had used 150,000 dollars for clothes and cosmetics for her and her family during the campaign. I think ridiculous is an understatement. It also says Palin had a traveling stylist and celebrity makeup artist. Which are clearly necesities. McCain has 21 million leftover cash that he cannot spend in the election because he accpeted the 84 million. What a shame.

I guess Palin spent so much on clothing and cosmetics for her and her family because they thought that their image was important in the campaign. Spending 150,000 dollars for clothes and cosmetics is a lot, but at least they're going to donate the clothes. I read that they are donating the clothes to charity after the campaign.
