New Palin Book: Palin didn't tell her daughters she was running for vice president

http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/11/03/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry5507246.shtml



<snip>

Conroy tells CBS "Early Show" co-anchor Harry Smith that he and Walshe bore witness to a "remarkable internal war" between Palin's staff and that of her boss, former Presidential Candidate John McCain.

Walshe tells Smith that McCain's campaign leaders were "terrified that she would embarrass John McCain, even after the campaign had officially ended."

Another revelation in the book; the authors allege that Palin didn't tell her daughters she was running for vice president, instead leaving it to a staffer to deliver the news.

Walshe said Palin's claim that she had asked her family to vote on whether she should run, if chosen by McCain, came later, "after she already shook hands with John McCain and accepted that offer."

1. Well no reason to tell them now. It'll just be a big disappointment to them.

4. They all have it.
George Bush, Sarah Palin, Dick Cheney, Sean Hannity, Lush Limpballs, Glenn Beck, Newt Gingrich, Laura Bush, Barbara Bush, Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, all of them. You can't find a single one without that characteristic blank look.

There is no life behind those eyes. No sparkle, no soul.
