McCain Camp Knocks Down Enquirer’s Palin Rumor

ST. PAUL, MINN.) – John McCain’s campaign threatened legal action against the National Enquirer today for running a story about McCain’s running mate, Sarah Palin, allegedly having an affair with her husband’s business partner.

“The smearing of the Palin family must end. The allegations contained on the cover of the National Enquirer insinuating that Gov. Palin had an extramarital affair are categorically false. It is a vicious lie,” said McCain senior adviser Steve Schmidt.

“The efforts of the media and tabloids to destroy this fine and accomplished public servant are a disgrace. The American people will reject it.”

The enquirer responds:

ENQURIER RESPONDS TO MCCAIN/PALIN

“The National Enquirer’s coverage of a vicious war within Sarah Palin’s extended family includes several newsworthy revelations, including the resulting incredible charge of an affair plus details of family strife when the Governor’s daughter revealed her pregnancy. Following our John Edwards’ exclusives, our political reporting has obviously proven to be more detail-oriented than the McCain campaign’s vetting process. Despite the McCain camp’s attempts to control press coverage they find unfavorable, The Enquirer will continue to pursue news on both sides of the political spectrum.”

You see how the tabloid media works? The Enquirer got some credit because they found out about John Edwards, so now they can make an accusation like this and have some “Street Credit”.
They have got the focus away from the “experience” of Sarah Palin.. Good plan Obama camp, but you can only hide for so long. Eventually the American people will see you in action, and see your plans for what they are. SOCIALISTIC Experiments.
Biden and Obama the initials spell it all B-O, and something is rotten in Messiahland.

I think this Enquirer investigation is a good thing, I think if the Palin family comes out of it unscathed then Palin wins. I think if they harp on the “Family Strife” after her daughter got pregnant, they will experience a large backlash.

I trust Sarah Palin to have been completely honest with the McCain camp from the beginning. IF not this will be the last chapter of the Republican party.

Just a word of advice to the Enquirer:
Investigate moral issues if you want, but be careful not to MANUFACTURE “facts” to sell a magazine.

Oh and explain this too me would you Barrack Hussein Obama supporters:
Edwards was considered a pariah at the convention for cheating on his wife, yet the Demorats saw fit to put Bill Clinton on the stage :rollingeyes:

The moral high ground will always be on the side of Conservatives, we will have our idiots, but we remove them, the democrats put their idiots in charge.
