Republican National Convention | The 2008 Election Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit

by Vanity Fair
September 4, 2008, 10:29 AM

One of the persistent memes in the Republican line of attack against Barack Obama is the notion that he is an elitist, whereas the G.O.P. represent real working Americans like Levi “F-in’ Redneck” Johnston.

It caught our attention, then, when First Lady Laura Bush and would-be First Lady Cindy McCain took the stage Tuesday night wearing some rather fancy designer clothes. So we asked our fashion department to price out their outfits.

Laura Bush
Oscar de la Renta suit: $2,500
Stuart Weitzman heels: $325
Pearl stud earrings: $600–$1,500
Total: Between $3,425 and $4,325

Cindy McCain
Oscar de la Renta dress: $3,000
Chanel J12 White Ceramic Watch: $4,500
Three-carat diamond earrings: $280,000
Four-strand pearl necklace: $11,000–$25,000
Shoes, designer unknown: $600
Total: Between $299,100 and $313,100

Wow! No wonder McCain has so many houses: his wife has the price of a Scottsdale split-level hanging from her ears.

(All prices except Laura’s shoes and Cindy’s watch are estimates, and the jewelry prices are based on the assumption that the pieces are real.)

Good for them!

Besides it takes more money to get a skinny cow fat than keep a fat one fat. Just look at how much more money Obama and his wife have made since becoming in the National spot light. Not sure this country can afford to get another couple fat like we did the Clinton's!

Sorry, I just couldn't resist. I have been here for a short time and have seen both sides get bent out of shape and I just couldn't help myself. :lol: :lol:

More class warfare. Carl Marx would be proud.
Class warfare is what will bring this country down- if we don't stop the continuing spread between the haves- and the have nots....When average working salaries are increasing by 25% over 10-15 years- and CEO salaries are increasing by 400% you get class's.....

Very poor and stupid reasoning/planning by the McSame bunch...You don't go out on National tv looking like your the Queen- when your husband is running for political office in a country that is in economical dispair--- especially just after you've spent months calling your opposition "the elitists"....

Couldn't the "Queen" put off wearing her diamonds and pearls- and her designer gowns for one night :???: When folks are losing jobs, losing houses, struggling to pay healthcare, canceling vacations because of exorbitant gas prices, etc. etc. and your husband is running for public office- you don't parade around in $300,000 worth of clothes and jewelry...

I'm starting to think ol McSame and his buddy/economic advisor Phil Gramm and other Lobbyists in that campaign have just totally lost touch with real America.....I can tell Cindy has...

Ohhh please if she would of worn a mother hubbard dress you'd of called her frumpy-the libs were running down Sarah Palin's outdated hairstyle the other day-I seem to remember the beloved Jackie Kennedy making some fashion statements and wearing expensive clothes for the day. EARTH TO OT all politicians are rich beyond our wildest dreams-maybe quit being a fashion critic and worry more about whose best at running your country. I know I'll sleep alot better to the north of you with McCain in the whitehouse.

No she doesn't, if you watched his speech last night, at the end when they were all standing on stage, Mrs. McCain tried to stand to his left and he gestured for her to stand to his right, in the middle next to Sarah Palin. I thought Southern women were supposed to be genteel and gracious, not catty and condescending! and I wouldn't waste your money on the magazine Mrs. Greg, I doubt very much you'd find it very interesting!
