ARLINGTON, VA -- With today's Wall Street Journal report that pro-Obama Democrats have "airdropped a mini-army of 30 lawyers, investigators and opposition researchers into Anchorage" to dig for dirt on our vice presidential nominee, the McCain-Palin campaign today launched the Palin Truth Squad to counter recent attacks on Governor Sarah Palin, her family, her friends and her record of accomplishment. The Palin Truth Squad will set the record straight against Internet and liberal smears of Governor Palin.
"We're proud of Governor Palin's leadership in Alaska and record of taking on entrenched special interests and the good old boys network," said former Governor Jane Swift. "Governor Palin's commitment to reform is well-known but there are those who would seek to distort that record with vile rumors and smears against her, her husband, her children and her friends. We will not allow those on the left and in the media to smear a woman who has always served her constituents with honor. We know the truth and are committed to ensuring it as well."
In the event of false attacks, rumors and smears against Governor Palin, the Palin Truth Squad will issue alerts and statements to voters and the media to set the record straight. Additionally, the Truth Squad will be available to respond to inquiries from the media.

If I were an independent, I would vote for Mccain/ Palin ticket just because of the despicable democratic machine.
Just The Facts, Mam!
Hey, if the MSM is up there practicing “checkbook journalism,” Anchorage locals could have a mini-goldrush.
What? No Buckhead?
FYI - Good Info
Boy, it sure does look like Governor Palin is being “Swift-boated”. At least by the liberal definition.
This is truly disgusting.
Ya’ll might want to have these guys on speed-dial.
McCain/Palin ping!
Sarah Palin is the most decent woman to enter into politics in a very long time. She exudes common sense, honesty, wholesomeness, love and fidelity to her family and those she serves. The woman is the Liberal/Socialist and Obamas worst nightmare! May the Lord protect this Lady from the evil being sent her way.
Saw Meg Stapleton on CNN. She’s terrific.
In my opinion, her protection should be our greatest concern, and prayer, such is the intensity to destroy her.
This is classic Chicago gutter politics folks. Obama is behind it and he has been from the start. Wake up people. It was that way all along.
What they don’t realize is that this sh*t does not work in all of the towns between Columbus, Pittsburgh and Charlestion. It will backfire.
It WILL backfire.

The truth-squad response looks to be well thought out and the squad itself consisting of high quality people. Exactly what is needed at this time - and to the election.
Of course, since the "liberal definition" need not have an ounce of truth associated with it..., of course it applies!
When does the airdrop over Chicago begin? It gets sicker and sicker.
