“One thing to consider is that at no point was anyone working for Governor Palin quoted making anything close to an on-the-record comment about this issue.”

And perhaps that’s an indication of a giant problem. If she wants to be taken seriously, she has to be able to get out in front of these ‘silly’ stories and either handle them quietly behind the scenes, or have a spokesperson who can quash it before it becomes an issue. As a previous poster said, now she just appears to be a giant prima donna who doesn’t want to share the stage with another big name.

I disagree.

I think it makes the organizers (who, as I understand it are a newly formed group and put this event together very, very quickly) look amateurish and very disorganized.

However, I’m not saying they couldn’t have been better vetted ..

And people will think what they will or attack whomever they will based on their own agendas and/or ulterior motives. We all know anything can be spun with a motivated spinner.

Wow hawk what an intelligent thing to say. Yeah I can just imagine Sarah gettinv out in front of rumor made up about her...

Like anyone will remember this! This is so minor.

Given the billing this event had in regards to the possibility of her announcing her intentions, she should have had someone in constant communication with the event organizers from the beginning. IOW, the CO invite would never have even happened if her team had approached this with even a bit of professionalism.

Nonsense!

This was a screw-up caused by the mendacious actions of an amateur Perry meddler.

Get used to it. These types of stories give me a big yawn these days. They’ve been doing it for FOUR YEARs. Sometimes you have to rise above. It pisses me off because I LIKE Christine. AND Sarah. I doubt they have any quarrels behind-the-scenes. Though their staffs may.

Christine O’Donnell is not a big name (80% of the people have never even heard her) just another laughable loser.

BTW no one is taken more seriously than Sarah Palin. She has been the principle target of the Left/Media since her nomination. NO ONE has been treated more seriously by our enemy than she. Destroying her has been its total task and it has used EVERY weapon it has to do so.
