Palin speaks: 'That's cruel, its mean spirited, it's immature, it's unprofessional, they're jerks [View All]

Sarah Palin came back to work at the governor's office in Anchorage this afternoon for the first time since she became a candidate for vice president more than two months ago. She was greeted by staffers and a scrum of local and national media gathered in the lobby. (Kyle Hopkins is working on video.)

The governor talked about her future role in national politics, her rocky relationship with Democrats and the anonymous criticism from McCain staffers who claimed she went on a shopping spree with Republican Party money and didn't know that Africa is a continent rather than a country.

"If there are allegations based on questions or comments I made in debate prep about NAFTA, about the continent versus the country when we talk about Africa there, then those were taken out of context. And that's cruel, it's mean-spirited, it's immature, it's unprofessional and those guys are jerks if they came away with it taking things out of context, then tried to spread something on national news," Palin said.

"We know that for instance with the whole clothes issue -- the RNC-purchased clothes -- those are the RNC's clothes, they are not my clothes. I never forced anybody to buy anything. I never asked for anything more than maybe a diet Dr Pepper every once in a while."

"It's just very, very disappointing because this is Barack Obama's time right now and this is an historic moment in our nation and this kind be a shining moment for America in our history. And look what we're talking about again, we're talking about my shoes and belts and skirts. This is ridiculous."

CNN has the video - her look is like a cross between being pissed and wanting to cry IMHO. http://www.cnn.com/video/#/video/politics/2008/11/07/intv.tuchman.palin.cnn

I really feel sorry for you Sarah....until I remember your supporters and the hatred you help stir towards Obama. Stay in Alaska, please. You're not ready for prime time!
