You want her to say it again so you can attack her again?

As I understand, she didn’t mention Perry’s name. Although if the shoe fits, wear it.

Did you watch watch what media commentator Palin said on Monday night? Here is some information for you.

Palin even went as far as to lend her voice to the charge leveled by Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) during the debate against Texas Gov. Rick Perry (R): That he allowed a law to go though requiring HPV vaccinations for adolescent girls because of a $5,000 campaign donation and his relationship with his former chief of staff, who went on to lobby for a pharmaceutical company.

"I knew there was something to it," Palin said of learning while she was Alaska's governor that her Texas counterpart had given the go-ahead to the vaccine. "Now we're finding that now, yea, something was up with that issue. It was an illustration or bit of evidence of some crony capitalism."

I'm just wondering why Palin and Bachmann aren't following up on this charge. Could it be internal polling telling them they actually lost support because of it?

She did actually mention him specifically, but it was no worse than the jabbing the candidates did to each other on the stage during their several debates. This is an issue that needs to be vetted. It WILL be vetted as Rick Perry continues in this campaign.

Gardasil happened. It has some issues many will want to consider or check out. Sarah Palin, along with many others to date, has now indicated her concern with the Gardasil situation in Texas.

Had she been standing alongside the candidates on stage for that last debate or the previous debates, she would have had an opportunity to have said exactly what she said, and Rick Perry would have responded I'm sure. I am supporting Rick Perry in his presidential run, but I have no problem with Sarah Palin or anyone else looking at any issue that needs to be looked at, especially since she is a paid political contributor to the television station on which she spoke that night. She had EVERY right to provide her political assessments and analysis.

Let it be looked at, considered, and then we'll all decide what it really was. As far as Sarah Palin goes, she has every right to contribute to current political events since she IS a FOX News contributor, and then if she enters the race, she'll be able to stand on that stage with all her running mates and offer her thoughts and criticisms there as well.
