That’s A Lot Of Lipstick

John McCain has been calling Barack Obama’s priorites “skewed,” but the struggling Senator might want to re-think his own priorities. According to a new filing with the Federal Election Commission, Sarah Palin’s makeup artist was the highest paid individual in McCain’s presidential campaign during the first half of October.

To the McCain campaign, style is more valuable than substance:

Amy Strozzi, who works on the reality show “So You Think You Can Dance” and has been Palin’s traveling stylist, was paid $22,800, according to campaign finance reports for the first two weeks in October. In contrast, McCain’s foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, was paid $12,500, the report showed.

And that’s not all:

In addition, Angela Lew, who is Ms. Palin’s traveling hair stylist, got $10,000 for “Communications Consulting” in the first half of October.

This is on top of the big bucks that were paid last month for McCain’s own makeup artist, and the even bigger bucks spent on the RNC’s shopping spree for Palin.
