STATEMENT FROM MCCAIN-PALIN SPOKESWOMAN MEG STAPLETON

Friday, October 10, 2008

ARLINGTON, VA — McCain-Palin 2008 spokeswoman Meg Stapleton issued the following statement on today’s release of Stephen Branchflower’s report:

“Today’s report shows that the Governor acted within her proper and lawful authority in the reassignment of Walt Monegan. The report also illustrates what we’ve known all along: this was a partisan led inquiry run by Obama supporters and the Palins were completely justified in their concern regarding Trooper Wooten given his violent and rogue behavior. Lacking evidence to support the original Monegan allegation, the Legislative Council seriously overreached, making a tortured argument to find fault without basis in law or fact. The Governor is looking forward to cooperating with the Personnel Board and continuing her conversation with the American people regarding the important issues facing the country.”

“$5 says she is toast”

You must be a wimp. You mean you would cave on your opponents throwing out such an easy hit as this?? Glad you’re not our candidate; they might go, “Boo!”

“Heh. I’m thinking about setting up a book on this. I really think McCain’s going to toss her out for this, and that’s a crime.”

Oh just stop.

You’ve been here since 98 and you seriously posted this with a straight face?

Never let it be assumed just because a person is conservative that they always make sense.

You said it: Palin doesn’t control McCain. And I bet he throws her over for this.

Those mugwumps in Alaska should know better than to dis the First Dude. He is his own person and I doubt Sarah could have stopped him.

Well now, if she isn’t elected as VP, then she’s gonna’be back as Alaska’s Governor. Paybacks are...um...really messy!

She will!!! Gov. Palin isn’t afraid of Obama OR the MSM. She’ll hit back. She’d rather be elected DOing the RIGHT THING rather than SAYing the right thing.

"Yeah, all the Freepers itching to vote for Chuck Baldwin claim McCain is going to ditch her."

Baldwin (who I once respected) is a hypocrite, and all that vote for him are traitors and fools.

Actually, I think what they were trying to find was evidence that they had stolen the scum troopers’ personal files or something to deny him benefits. What does the report say about that??
(If nothing, then yea they just came up with some BS to throw out there to make it look like the investigation wasn’t a waste)

It seems a good deal of people that were here since 98, are posting some seriously whacked-out stuff.

Sarah may be the brightest spot, but McCain is the darkest. Let’s just hope for the best.

dropping Palin would destroy McCain politically.

yep, I agree. Something like that.

Obi Wan don’t spend the week saying the guy is allied with the dark side, and then turn around and say, “But Darth Vader would make a really good President.”

Get the story out that he threatened Sarah Palin’s father with gun violence. Say it and say it and say and say it.

The he tasered a 10 year old.

He drank in a squad car.

Poached moose.

Total disrespect for the law.

This is a no where story.
