John McCain defended the Republican National Committee’s decision Thursday to spend more than $150,000 dollars on clothing and accessories for running mate Sarah Palin.

“She needed clothes at the time,” McCain told a group of Florida reporters.

You know John, there are a TON of people who need clothes and you could have clothed a bunch of them with $150K. There might have been a halfway decent answer to the question, but this sure as hell wasn't it.
