Sarah Palin tight-lipped on vote
Source: Chicago Trib

Citing her right to privacy, Gov. Sarah Palin refused to say who she voted for after emerging from her polling place in Wasilla, Alaska. That's right, she wouldn't say she voted for her own presidential ticket. We assume she did, but she stood on principle and wouldn't say. She did say the secret ballot was one of the "cool" things about the U.S. Agreed.

5. She doesn't even have to release her medical records. Cool. She doesn't have to say who helped
build her house. Cool.

And she doesn't get to pretend to be Vice President. Pricelessly cool.

9. I think she voted for Obama
She wants to be on top in 4 years.

She probably doesn't like to be on the bottom.

12. She played a little game I'll bet...
put a blindfold on, spun around in the booth a few times and just marked an "X" wherever her pencil landed


She just doesn't want to admit she voted for a dried-up wad of chewing gum someone left on the table

18. rofl
I was thinking the same thing. What a shock if all the Republicans just wrote in Sarah Palin, instead of voting for McCain! lol

Either that, or a little reverse-Bradley effect going on, but I highly doubt that, as that requires a conscience. And Mrs. Palin has proven she is not burdened by that pesky mechanism.

27. It's because she didn't want people to know she voted for a convicted felon.
The same convicted felon she said publicly said should resign.
