Sarah Palin’s husband was injured in a serious snowmobile crash and hospitalized in intensive care — but she still appeared at a Donald Trump rally in Florida on Monday.

Palin was forced to cancel a morning campaign event in The Villages, Florida after Todd Palin’s accident in Alaska, she said.

Todd Palin is an avid snowmobiler and four-time champion of the Iron Dog, the longest snowmobile race in the world at more than 2,000 miles.

“snow-making machine.”

We call them sno-guns in the south.

"Forget about Todd, especially now”.

Direct quote earlier today from the great communicator...

I can’t imagine. I had one fractured rib once, and it was horrible. I couldn’t even lie down, and barely walk; and when you get over the crisis and to where you might actually laugh again - just don’t.

“Petty punk-ass thuggery”

Quote of the day!

[TigersEye]

Is that a reference to the leftist protesters or the press? ;-)

Should we call a jet ski a water machine? Or how about we call any water going vessel a water machine? Let’s start calling automobiles pavement or asphalt machines. And we will call all aircraft air machines.

Snowmobile may be ‘Brand Name’

Fractured ribs, collarbone and “lung injuries”, in ICU.

Punctured lung?

[Aliska]

Sounds like a punctured lung.

Snowmobile or Snowmachine or Sno-Go?

[HerrBlucher]

Snowmobile is the only one that makes sense. Snogo sounds like something you would buy at a 7-Eleven.

Why get worked up over it? It’s been that way for years in some regions. Here it is still snowmobile - likely because they are mostly recreational. In Alaska those vehicles are necessary during certain months of the year, which may be why the vehicles came to be referred to as “snow machines”.

[thinden]

Or as neon deon said: “both”

[Robert DeLong]

Alaskans are a unique breed for sure. But it was an interesting read though.

[HerrBlucher]

I am not getting worked up over it, I am just having a good time posting and drinking a bit of bourbon. Sometimes it’s fun to make a big deal out of nothing just like the Seinfeld show.

Two ribs with the accompanying chest-wall hematoma. Uncomfortable is an understatement, it hurt to breath.
