The McCain campaign continues to snipe at each other over the handling, and subsequent effect, of Sarah Palin on the campaign trail. According Nicole Wallace, a senior McCain aide who is one of Palin’s handlers and helped to orchestrate her initial rollout, there is a ‘organized campaign to lay blame’ for things at her feet.

AP: Palin actually does “Spread the Wealth Around” in Alaska

Sat, 01 Nov 2008 19:47:33 +0000

McCain & Palin summon antidemocratic images of a communist state to attack Obama’s tax plan and his comment about spreading the wealth. But in August 2008, Palin said “And Alaska we’re set up, unlike other states in the union, where it’s collectively Alaskans own the resources. So we share in the wealth when development of these resources occur.”

How to Look Like a World Leader on a Hockey Mom Salary

Mon, 27 Oct 2008 12:56:29 +0000

The Republican National Committee spending nearly $150,000 to dress and style Alaska Governor Sarah Palin and her family in the wake of her nomination as the party’s vice presidential candidate surprised me. The first rule of fiscal responsibility, in my humble opinion, is to never pay retail. Whether you live in New York, NY or Wasilla, Alaska, there’s no reason you can’t look powerful, professional and put together on a budget.

Steven Waldman: Palin: God Gave Me a Down Syndrome Child To

Thu, 23 Oct 2008 14:28:01 +0000

Sarah Palin just gave a fascinating interview with James Dobson of Focus on the Family. One of the most interesting moments is when she suggests that God gave her Trig, the child with Down Syndrome, in part to help promote the pro-life agenda:

So wait…God gave her a baby, born with genetic defects and problems, just so she could turn around and promote a pro life agenda.

Why not just make all babies born to healthy parents…ummm…healthy? Wouldn’t that be easier God? I mean, kinda lazy on his part. Its like God said:

“Look, I don’t have time to keep track of all the babies you humans are making so every so often some of them…ehhhh a little not right, but you should love them anyway. Next time I’ll pay attention and their be less wrong.”

So yai God?

AP: Palin children traveled on state funds

Wed, 22 Oct 2008 15:46:47 +0000

Gov. Sarah Palin charged the state for her children to travel with her, including to events where they were not invited, and later amended expense reports to specify that they were on official business.

Yeah but they were needed for official business. Looking good in pictures and promoting strong family values. If that’s not important enough to fake for a campaign I don’t know what is.
