GOP governors unhappy with Palin press conference
Posted: 05:00 PM ET
From CNN Correspondent Dana Bash
MIAMI (CNN) — Some Republican governors tell CNN they were not particularly happy with the way the Republican Governors Association press conference was executed Thursday, saying that they agreed to go as a show of GOP governors’ unity — but they ended up feeling like silent Palin supporters, since it was clearly a press conference called for her.
The GOP governors spoke to CNN on condition of anonymity.
One called it awkward: “I’m sure you could see it on some of our faces.”
Another Republican governor eyeing a presidential run in 2012 told CNN the event was “odd” and “weird,” and said it “unfortunately sent a message that she was the de facto leader of the party."
There has been palpable tension among some GOP governors gathered in Miami that Palin has been sucking up all the media oxygen.
In an interview with CNN, Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour shrugged off that suggestion.
"That's just somebody running down a rabbit trail. There's plenty of oxygen here,” he said.

Ok, so do we think the odd and weird guy was Jindal or Pawlenty?

5. Well, she hasn't attened any sessions |
|
at the Governors' Conference, has she?
She's been there, but giving interviews. Not exactly networking with nor schmoozing her fellow Govs.
Bad move that.

12. If anyone's going to slow down the Palin train, it'll be from within the GOP |
|
The media just sits around and enables her for ratings.

14. I watched it live this am and posted then that barbour's.... |

body language spoke volumes. He practically ran off the stage and threw his hand up in disgust after the "brief" press conference this am.

16. Yes, that statement has Barbour's signature all over it |
|
Disregard the indifference in his statement. What would you expect him to say? But, of course, the rest would be in agreement.

15. WTF were they expecting when they chose to do the press conference with her? |
|
Did they think she was going to stop being such a fucking attention whore?
