In Her Own Words(2006)-Re: Bridge To Nowhere: "I Wouldn't Cancel The Project"

Edited on Mon Sep-08-08 02:26 PM by kpete

In the 2006 debate, Palin was asked whether she supported this earmark, or whether she would pledge to cancel it as governor. Rather than responding with �thanks but no thanks� to federal funding for this �access� road, Palin said:

"I wouldn�t (cancel the project). I�m not going to stand in the way of progress that our congressional delegation � in the position of strength that they have right now � they�re making those efforts for the state of Alaska to build up our infrastructure. I would not get in the way of progress.

7. They should nail them with this, over and over

McCain,s big talking point for months was the "Bridge to Nowhere", and he goes and selects a backer of the "Bridge to Nowhere" for his VP.

Obama Biden = "Change You Can Believe In"
McCain / Palin = "Change To Nowhere"
