Palin Refused To Go On Stage With Pro-Choice GOPers

Via The New Republic, another anecdote from Newsweek on Sarah Palin:

The day of the third debate, Palin refused to go onstage with New Hampshire GOP Sen. John Sununu and Jeb Bradley, a New Hampshire congressman running for the Senate, because they were pro-choice and because Bradley opposed drilling in Alaska. The McCain campaign ordered her onstage at the next campaign stop, but she refused to acknowledge the two Republican candidates standing behind her.

While Bradley is reported to be pro-choice, Sununu is not, at least publicly. It's not clear from the Newsweek article whether the misconception was Palin's or that of her aides.

UGH! Just the more that comes out about her, the more that I thank the good Americans that didn't vote for her foolishness. She's not a good person and I'm glad that I'm hearing less and less about her each day.

Let me get this straight..­..

She knew their stance on abortion but she can't name the NAFTA countries and was previously unaware Africa was a continent, not a country?

[maxfax]

Stupid shopaholic.

[Lisette]

Too bad her principles didn't extend to not ripping off
the Republicans for $150 Grand....

[Boadicea]

Plus at least another 40, don't forget.

[gi]

She should have hit them for $500 grand. But look 64% of the gop wants her to lead. They are a KILLER! lol!!!

[thebatgirl]

At a time when America is choosing unity, she is a big devider, and so very narrow minded, why can't the republican party see this.

[freelyb]

Um...Her running mate has pro-choice leanings, but I guess he had something for her that she wanted. Publicity.

[redhed515]

So this is an example of reaching across the aisle that she and McCain promised?

[S-Jane]

I bet she thought they were both anti-American for having views that differ from her. That has been her rhetoric from day one.

Poor John McCain, thought he had chosen a tough little American badger as his running mate,
and didn't realize he had chosen an African honey badger (ratel). Be sure to google the traits,
of a honey badger.

Wasill Hillbilly Palin and Mr. Im ashamed of my Heritage Jindal 2012!!!!!!

[Sparty1]

hahahahahaha! That's the best post today. I have been trying to think of a way to describe Bobby ' I'm a Southern Boy' Jindal and you just helped me out. Thanks.

Now that's the ticket for 2012. If the GOP thought alot of folks stayed home this time, just wait for this team!

Tina Fey might want to wait a little while before she sends her Palin costumes back to Wardrobe.

[newshawk14]

I actually suspect that Tina Fey might prove to be a much more intelligent and suitable
candidate albeit, nowheres as vicious.

Another GOP clown who would refuse to GOVERN EVERYONE!!

[HarryMonster]

She made it clear during her campaign stops that she had no intention of governing all people - just the "real Americans". Glad she is back in Alaska and now I'm watching to see what happens to Stevens.

[Vere15]

...but she would go to an Airport washroom with Larry Craig since she agrees with him on most things

[ElizGray]

What do you expect from a right-wing neocon who believes man walked with dinosaurs?

[twokidsonecat]

Truly, a McCain Administration would have been a nightmare! Palins thoughts and comments aren't even rational.

Thankfully everyday I can be greatful Obama won!

[stella801]

I wonder if John McCain is embarrassed by choosing her as his VP now that all this has come to light. Hope a tell-all book is on its way.

[shall01]

God..I hope he is embarrasse­d..he shuld be, Shame on him.
