“She called the Obama eligibility issue ‘distracting’ and ‘annoying.’ “

That does not place her “with” McClintock, since she has also indicated her disbelief in his eligibility more than once.

I recall Palin responding, when asked about Trump's quest for Obama's LFBC, something along the lines of, "Yes, let's get it out there for everyone to see."

That statement came closer to outright calling Bammy an ineligible president, than anything I've heard from any other presidential candidate. Unfortunately, for political pragmatism's sake, that's about as close as she could come to that flame without getting burned.

There are more than enough other battles where Palin can easily beat Obama, but the eligibility issue isn't one of them. People must follow where a politician leads, and Palin is wise enough to see that there simply aren't enough troops lined up on that front to win the day.

Yep, that’s pretty much exactly what Governor Palin said:
Question: “Do you question his faith and citizenship?”

Response: “I don’t, and those are distractions. What we’re concerned about is the economy. And we’re concerned about the policies coming out of his administration and what he believes in terms of big government or private sector. So, no, the faith, the birth certificate, others can engage in that kind of conversation. It’s distracting. It gets annoying and let’s just stick with what really matters.”
