Sarah Palin Backs Out Of Iowa Event Because Of 'Continual Lying'

Sarah Palin has her girl Christine O’Donnell’s back. After a bizarre turn of events, in which O’Donnell was invited, then disinvited, then re-invited, to speak before Palin, a source close to Palin told The Wall Street Journal that the former governor wouldn’t speak either. The source said Palin was concerned about the “continual lying.”

The Journal commented,

Ms. Palin is known for last-minute schedule changes that whipsaw supporters and media across the country. But the latest decision is puzzling. Ms. Palin’s speech at the rally was viewed as her most high-profile appearance of the summer, fueling speculation she was indeed plotting to run for the Republican presidential nomination.

Instead, Palin is going to appear at an event organized by Conservatives4Palin. This has all the makings of a serious political operation.
