…Alright. Say ‘hi’ to your mother for me.”

It seems improbable (and to my eye the “vote” flag seem out of place from a design perspective if not photoshopped), but I haven’t heard anyone calling “fake” yet.  So then, what was she thinking? I suppose wearing the symbol of your opposition is “mavericky.” At least that’s a nice word for it.

Maybe the scarf is part of the $150,000 the RNC has spent on her clothes. For those of you who like math, that’s $2,500 a day–or equal to one of McCain’s annual health insurance tax credits (for individuals) every single day.

* It’s a reference to last weekend’s SNL skit with Mark Whalberg, NOT “that one” with Palin.
