She should start selling her unwashed underwear. I bet there are enough drooling conservatives who will bid on it.

[Soundofthunder]

I would have paid more, if Palin was in them and I could hurl them, and her, into the deepest part of the ocean. Then again, I'd hate to make some poor shark sick.

So would those be considered "Come f*** me pumps"?

[jbs902]

Yikes looks like the designers name should have been Butt Ugly cause that's what those kicks are.

[thebeautyoftheburst]

Anybody have a pair of thongs wore by Palin? I wonder how much they would bring in???

[BartLA]

Gross. And to think someone would wear them after touching her feet.

[notconfindtweenhatnboots]

I don't think anyone is planning on wearing them.... As for who would buy them, it has to be a reight winger Palin fre-eek with a foot fet esh.

[mergina]

That is actually a very ugly pair of shoes.

[smark]

The poor thing just couldn't afford the kind of shoes she purchased on the RNC's money!

[baseballmom]

They look cheap and trashy. They aren't even real leather, they're patent.

[xmw]

So I agree that they are hideous but there is patent leather. I guess these are just patent as in pvc or polyurethane huh? I think these are the ones supposedly during the campaign that cost $99 and sold out. too much money for plastic!

[Rescisco]

Just imagine how much her first intelligent thought might be worth if it could be captured and sold. Something that rare, and perhaps a once in a lifetime thing, would be priceless.

[smark]

Not a chance that will happen anytime soon!

Were they part of the $150,000+ that the RNC spent? If so, weren't they purchased with donations, and shouldn't the money be returned?

[MelRoy]

They were supposed to be given to charity - not sold for a profit.

Typical GOP BS.

[mercury613]

Ugh. And they're not even cute.

[gotborked]

Wasn't Huffpo reporting a couple days ago that Palin was throwing it all out?

[GeorgeP922]

No, well sorta.

rumors came out that the 200K of clothes were in black garbage bags in the basedment of the RNC head quarters.

The relevancy is the RNC pledged to sell and donate all the clothes to keep within ethics.

Instead they just chucked into the basement, can't blame them, they just got set back 10-30 years electorally.

and they wasted about a half million dollars making palin look pretty for a few weeks (make up artists got 3 grand a day)

Naughty Monkey --- how fitting --- but seriously; who (in their right mind) would even want to 'walk in Palin's shoes' (metaphorically and otherwise).

[Nerdboy2317]

Knowing the level of depravity out there - I don't think they are going to be "walked" in.

[WaimeaWidow]

Ewwwww! Please, help me remove the mental image of some Palinite fondling the Naughty Monkeys. ARGH!

[CeeCee]

Amazing! The economy is in the pits, and someone has a couple of thousand plus to waste on used shoes! That will need to be fumigated.

[ltva]

I don't think these are the shoes she wore. The 'infamous' red pumps worn by palin shown in photos, did not have a peep toe. Someone got duped--or not; I wouldn't pay a penny for anything she has.

[MelRoy]

Nope, those are her tootsies, alright.

[searchingforzen]

Some serious toenails going on!

[BlueZoo]

ROFL! The woman's so dumb it wouldn't surprise me to learn she bought her own shoes back at an inflated price. All kidding aside, there's not a pair of shoes in the world worth $2000 and, if there is, they better be covered in diamonds!
