Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin came to town today fully expecting to be booed by Philadelphia hockey fans.

"The Flyers fans, they get so enthused that they boo everybody at the drop of a puck," said Palin.

The Republican vice presidential candidate even stoked the ire of her own supporters at a pricey afternoon fund-raiser, when she said she'd be cheering New York Rangers center Scott Gomez, who is from Anchorage. She was booed.

"Ok, Ok, I'm getting used to the boos already," she said.

For those keeping score, Palin was first booed on Broad Street at 3:35 p.m. as she peered out the window of her SUV while it passed a crowd of protesters outside the Park Hyatt at the Bellevue, site of the fundraiser.

At the Wachovia Center, loud music drowned out the fans, who greeted Palin with a mixture of cheers and boos, clapping and thumbs down as she dropped the ceremonial first puck of the first Flyers game of the season.

14. Isn't it disgusting that she drags that little girl into such a situation???

[AlCzervik]

16. and she drags those poor kids to her hate rallies! How can you put a kid in that setting?

[Trajan]

5. OMG .... That child is cute beyond measure ....

It looks like my oldest daughter at about 9 years old ....

As much as I despise Palin ... that kid is absolutely beautiful ...

She will be just as beautiful back in Alaska, visiting Ms. Palin in prison ....

6. Boo!

I'd rather scratch a chalkboard or suck on a dry paper towel.

I'd tell Caribou Barbie to kiss my ass, but my ass wouldn't have anything to do with her.

8. You are getting booed for a reason, Sarah.

[political_Dem]

9. For once, she should stop lying and face the music.

Out of her insulated world, people despise her. She needs to take a long, hard look in the mirror and finally realize she's a loathsome person who doesn't care for anyone except herself. People are seeing through her crap and got a glimpse of the ugly person inside.

She's a washed up Beauty Queen on her last grasp at notoriety as well.

10. That woman is delusional!

"The Flyers fans, they get so enthused that they boo everybody at the drop of a puck."

No Bitch, the boos are aimed specifically at you! Go away and don't darken their doorstep again!

12. "they get so enthused that they boo everyone" - say WHAT?

what does that mean?

Who boos when they get enthused? What kind of cockamamie BS is this? Oh, right, just the typical Palin-kind.

[speedoo]

13. It's good that she's getting used to the boos.

She will be hearing a lot of them for the rest of her political career.

17. I was waiting for individual vids to surface...

Here's one...

I wonder if they were piping more than just music out of those speakers. No one around these folks sound like they're cheering.

I love this.

Philly - once again - thanks.

19. For one night, and I can't believe I'm saying this

I love Flyers fans.
