“The smearing of the Palin family must end. The allegations contained on the cover of the National Enquirer insinuating that Gov. Palin had an extramarital affair are categorically false. It is a vicious lie,” said McCain senior adviser Steve Schmidt.
I remember Carol Burnett suing the Enquirer for calling her drunk in public.
I also remember her winning.
The fact that they got the Edwards story right (plus they had photos) doesn’t mean they have this one right. If I recall correctly from other threads, this is being promulgated by a Palin “enemy.” It wouldn’t surprise me if her ex brother-in-law was behind it - using his proximity to the family as proof of his credibility.
