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.”

another bullshiper from Du....Sarah Palin IS the ONLY reason that McCain has a shot....no one has ever in this short of time ever built the concensus that she has built, the emotion, the frenzy, the willing to do anything to get her in office attitude....I dare say she alone is responsible for bringing in all the millions that the RNC and the compliance fund has raised..

I understand why you say that, but the press would pound away at her if she gave them a chance. It doesn’t matter if she’s innocent or not, they’ll have her looking guilty as sin by the time they are done.

The spokesperson is the way to go IMO.

I agree, and I want her to publisize the emails that this horrid man sent her. All the press have seen them, why haven’t we?

Yup. There’s enough negative language in the report for the MSM to grab on to, notwithstanding that she operated fully within the law.

OK so now...

Will the Media report that OBAMA misused his position as a presidential candidate, oh but broke no laws, by contributing large sums of money to ACORN?

I’m sorry I must have missed something. Exactly how was this past week difficult—aside from the ludicrous McCain/Marxist Onada debate? McCain is inching up even in dem weighted polls. In many cases he is within MOE. Again, why was this week bad? Be specific please.
