Sen. John McCain, the Republican nominee for president, has said that the wardrobe purchased for Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin after she was chosen as his running mate this summer will be donated to charity, according to a report by Fox News and the Associated Press. The campaign came under fire after the Web site Politico.com revealed this week that the Republican National Committee spent about $150,000 on the governor’s clothing, hair styling, makeup, and other “campaign accessories” in September.
