On the Campaign Trail with Ed Tibbetts

Palin not coming to Iowa — yet

with 2 comments

The Iowa Family Policy Council issued a news release today saying 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin won’t be coming to the organization’s Nov. 21 banquet.

But, the IFPC says, “she has asked if she could speak at a future mutually agreeable date.”

This all comes on the heels of a flap over whether Palin demanded a speaking fee for the event.

You can see my post on it here. In sum: A Politico article and headline suggested yesterday that she did. A Palin’s spokeswoman said she didn’t.

I won’t go over the whole thing again. See my post.

Lest there be any confusion over Palin’s future appearance, the IFPC closes out its news release today with this: “She will not accept any fees for her appearance.”

  1. Newsweek refuted the Politico story about Palin yesterday as well. Suffice it to say, Politico can take any Palin-related story and spin it negative against her…as was evidenced by the misleading article that appeared yesterday.
