As I am sure that you know at least 1346 reasons why McCain is losing this election, let me add another one to your list.
He pays his makeup artist more than $22K a month (approx $264K per year - bad news, your taxes are going up with Obama) while paying his foreign policy advisor approximately $12K per month. John Stewart, are you paying attention?
According to this AP article, McCain spends almost twice as much on his makeup artist as his foreign policy adviser.
But McCain's Oct. 1-15 filing showed that the campaign paid $22,800 to Palin's traveling stylist, Amy Strozzi, an acclaimed celebrity makeup artist. In contrast, McCain's foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, was paid $12,500, the report showed.
Late night talk shows are really going to miss the McCain/Palin campaign.
