Schlafly Chides McCain Camp for Palin Cancellation
ABC News' Teddy Davis reports: Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly is taking the McCain campaign to task for notifying her at the last minute that Sarah Palin will be a no-show on Tuesday when the Republican National Coalition for Life holds an event honoring the Alaska governor.

"I think this is clearly somebody in the McCain campaign who doesn't understand where the votes are coming from," Schlafly told ABC News. "They only told me this at 10 o'clock last night, and it was a call from somebody down-the-line in the McCain campaign.

"The pro-lifers who paid $95 to come to this event because of Sarah Palin are going to be very unhappy," she added.

1. Wow, if there was ever an indication that Sarah is about to walk the plank...

I mean, how safe an audience do you WANT (if she was going to continue)???

7. Hmmm... it appears so!
I wonder when will Palin ask to be excused from Veepship on account of family priorities. Tonight? Tomorrow morning? Later than that, and we will have another Eagleton affair.

17. My threads always sink like stones - you can have it! Run with it!
I don't think she'll bail for real, though.

5. Phyllis, do the world a favor
And STFU. Sometimes it's not all about you.

Just go away.

Oh, and take Dr. Laura with you.

9. Palin distancing herself from the pro life crowd. Can it get anymore obvious that Palin
Edited on Tue Sep-02-08 05:45 PM by gbrooks

is a political opportunist who believes in
nothing but her own ambition?

She's more cynical than her new boss and his
neo con cohorts.

They say whatever it takes to get elected then
do the opposite and lie about it.

13. Very, very interesting comments on that article, too.
There are a number of posts from people who say they're independents who are now supporting Obama. They sound legit. There is maybe one post in support of Palin that sounds legit - the others sound like paid shills.

If I were McCain's team I would be very concerned.
