So, the RNC finally filed the paperwork for its coordinated campaign expenditures today. The goal was to bury the spending on Sarah Palin's extravagant wardrobe until after the election. The subterfuge annoyed me.

So, I decided to publish the highlights from the records in a Google-accessible format.

Let's let RNC donors know where their money is going.

The pattern of expenditures suggests deliberate subterfuge.

Almost all the expenditures are dated Oct 17 or Nov 20. Palin appeared on Saturday Night Live Oct 18, which explains the first orgy of consumerism.

The Politico broke the Palin wardrobe story on Oct 22. Katherine Coughlin spent over $600 at Dillard's on Oct 28.

Palin claimed that all the shopping was for the RNC when was held during the first week of September.

It's unlikely that any items were purchased after the election. RNC lawyers were dispatched to Alaska to collect Palin's trousseau by Nov 8.

So, what's with the Nov 20 date? Is the RNC deliberately misstating the dates of the purchases--perhaps to explain why the outlays weren't disclosed prior to the election?

So, here are the highlights from the RNC's latest Schedule F:

Jeannie Etchart made two purchases worth $339.67 and $611.64 at Brooks Brothers in New York City on Oct 17. She also ran up bills $1162.56 and $200.21 at Macy's in Orlando that same day. Etchart also spent $302.72 at Dick's Sporting Goods that day and an additional $79.98 at Dick's on Nov 20. At Kate Spade in NY she spent $146.31 on Nov 20. and another $774.68 at Macy's in McLean VA on Nov 20.

Etchart paid $484.74 and $188.51 at Nieman Marcus in Denver, CO on Oct 17. She spent another $2130.40 at Nieman Marcus in Dallas on Nov 20. She spent $702.00 at Saks 5th Ave. in New York on Oct 17, and $3360.21 at Saks in Cinncinatti, OH on Nov 20. She spent $44.00 at Victoria's Secret in Philadelphia on Nov 20.

Etchart bought $86.00 worth of "campaign accessories" at Zoe & Co., a custom bra fitting boutique in Rhode Island on Nov 20, slogan "the perfect pick-me-up."

Palin advance man Brennan Hart spent an additional $40.00 at Dick's Sporting Goods on Oct 17.

Chris Burt spent $151.71 at Toys R Us in New York on Nov 20. Bruce Goodwin dropped $74.90 at Once Upon a Child on Nov 20 in Pittsburgh.

Katherine Coughlin spent $620.23 at Dillard's on Oct 28.

Kristi Pulsfort dropped $350 at the Escape Skin Care and Day Spa in New York City on Nov 20. She also spent $160.00 at Mateos Salon and Day Spa in Colorado Springs, CO that same day.

Andrew Smith dropped $1788.13 at Bloomingdale's in Orlando on Oct 17 as well as $561.00 at Home Optics in Alaska, and $372.13 at Macy's in Orlando, FL.

Bexie Nobles paid a $230.64 bill at the Hanover St. Chop House Dining in Manchester NH on Nov 20, an expense that shows up in the records as a "campaign accessory." She paid $138.78 at Mark Pardo Salon-Spa in Albuquerque, NM on Oct 17. Bexie shelled out $104.37 to Victoria's Secret in Ohio on Oct 17. She spent another $324.00 on campaign accessories at Saks NY on Nov 20.

New York Stylist Lisa Kline got $54,900.00 for "consulting" on Nov 20, and a mysterious New York-based Cora James got $15,000 for "consulting" on Oct 17.

Needless to say these outlays are dwarfed by the massive coordinated expenditures to FLS Connect (Jeff Larson's consulting company, he of the earlier Nieman Marcus spree) and Olsen Shuvalov, Karl Rove's old firm.
