EVERY DAY'S A GOING-AWAY PARTY! "The RNC's expenditures for 'office supplies' in the period through February topped $773,000, according to a Washington Post tally, including jelly beans for Steele's office and thousands of dollars' worth of liquor and wine. Although not asked to review specific party expenditures, Mindy Kramer, an Office Depot spokeswoman, said that in general, firms with 100 office workers -- about the size of the RNC headquarters staff -- spend $30,000 to $50,000 a year on supplies."
