Well at least McCain’s aids are as spineless as their esteemed leader.
mccain senior aide said it never happened
newsweek said anonymous source (probably liberal bloggers) says it happened
conclusion, it happened
One of two things.
This is true and Sarah has a right to be pissed
or
This is hit piece to drive a wedge in the GOP ranks.
Sarah just gave 5k to McCain’s pac so I wonder about this.
When evaluating such a claim I would have to ask two things:
1. Would Newsweek have an interest in causing a split between the Republican party? (yes), and
2. Do I trust unnamed sources? (no).
It may have happened, but that doesn’t mean I trust this source.
RNC will get a stab in the back from me.
Newsweek has completely went down the crapper. I can’t believe I ever subscribed to this rag back in 1992.
Ping!
FYI: John Coale is married to Greta Van Susteren.
Coale was the one who set up SarahPAC and her legal defense fund, so if he says that the McCain Campaign made some promises and then left her out to dry, I’d say that he knows exactly what he’s talking about. Makes sense in the context of McCain’s defeat, when he and his people tried to blame Palin and throw her under the bus, starting on November 5.
