I haven't a clue how many suits he needs, but at some point the McCain 
campaign decided not to do any more appearances in Maine (Maine only 
have four votes and they are splittable) and canceled some that were set 
up.  The Maine Republican party didn't think much of that so Todd Palin 
was sent.  Some of my reddest-neck friends were coming in from a trip 
and decided to stay at the airport to hear his speech.  To say that they 
were underwhelmed with Mr Palin would be an understatement.  I'm really 
not sure what all the squawk was about but they were making fun of him 
so badly I actually felt sorry for the guy.  They went on the whole 
evening; I was beginning to think they should have paid money to go hear 
the guy since they got so much entertainment out of him. His hunting 
skills and fishing expertise seemed to be taking big hits but I was in 
the living room and they guys were in the kitchen, so I didn't get what 
it all was, but they sure had fun at his expense, even if he wasn't there. 

Whether he had on a suit or not I'd have no clue.  I doubt it or I'd 
have heard about that, too.  Generally just a tie will bring on the 
comments here.  Add a sport coat to that and you're apt to be thought a 
lawyer, a whole suit usually means trouble.....
