Rather than show your jealousy for something lame like clothes, why don't you learn more about her devotion to those around the world less fortunate than herself and most spoiled Americans. She's not just talk, she walks the walk. She's an inspiration we should all be proud of. Get your head out of the sand.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John P.]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 10:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit for the RNC]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</guid><description><![CDATA[I know that ear rings may legitimately be considered part of an "outfit" but seriously? Let's not make it sound like they were an exclusive purchase just for the RNC and that they will not be an every-day enhancement to the wardrobe. I mean, I guess if we KNOW that they were on loan, or purchased for the event, it may be a valid claim, but in all fairness let's just say that the "outift" was somewhere in the neighborhood of $20k. The McCain's are wealthy people and a $20k outfit is not something to be considered extravagant for an event like this, nor is a $280k pair of ear rings for that matter. My uncle is a wealthy man and I remember him spending over $100k on a diamond for my aunt back in the late 80's for their anniversary. It was his gift to her from him and she wore it every day.  I would hardly say that she was wearing a $100k outfit every day of the week. Anyway, no bitterness here. This is the ONLY blog that I visit EVERY day, several times a day. Keep it up!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 4th 2008 10:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit for the RNC]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</guid><description><![CDATA[Was so glad to read all the praise for Mrs.McCain.I think people who make rude remarks about the wealthy spending THEIR money are just jealous.People just have to complain about something.If she came out dressed way down they would say,she has enough money to dress better than that.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Valerie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 5th 2008 2:05AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit for the RNC]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have to agree with the others on this...  Good for Cindy McCain.  Her family worked hard and earned their fortune and why should she feel ashamed?  It's not like she's an insensitive person who does zero charity work...<br><br>Hell, I know lots of people who are elitists, and they aren't even wealthy (think of the people making $80k a year and driving around in a BMW 7 Series and displaying a $500 handbag).... <br><br>Let me guess here...  Are the critics suggesting she should be giving away all her wealth to those that haven't earned it (i.e. redistribution)?  If that's the case, god help our country - because no one in their right mind would ever have the goal of achieving the American Dream - for fear that after all that hard work, it would have to be redistributed to others....<br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chris]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 5th 2008 2:04AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit for the RNC]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think that this is a sign of how they handle their expenses, they are definitely not going to be representing the poor and have no idea what the poor people think, how can they solve the issues of the majority when they own dresses the price of homes.<br><br><a href="http://www.tranharry.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.tranharry.com/</a><br><a href="http://www.stackmychips.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.stackmychips.com/</a><br><br>Personal lives always blend into business, and in this case we're talking politics.

I didn't like the tailoring or the color, and the Chanel J12 was a weird choice.  Also, while I am normally all about the upturned collar on any woman over 40, this one turned me off.  I thought it was harsh and unflattering.  Surely she could have provided an antidote to Laura's staid suit without this take-no-prisoners couture?  It just doesn't say "First Lady" to me...   ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lima]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 5th 2008 12:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit for the RNC]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2008/09/04/cindy-mccains-300-000-outfit-for-the-rnc/</guid><description><![CDATA[Cindy McCain's shoes are by Taryn Rose.
