Palin will accept stimulus money under conditions, willing to compromise on parental notification
Palin made her comments in a wide ranging "availability" with reporters this morning, in which she also talked about subjects including abortion, the rejection of her state Senate appointee, and Levi Johnston, the father of her grandchild.

Palin said she still has problems with the stimulus money but it’s clear to her that legislators want to take it all. Palin could still veto or refuse to spend the money if she wanted, but she doesn’t seem inclined to do so at this point.

Palin said her administration has identified $250 million in state spending that could be replaced with stimulus money. She said she plans to meet with legislators this afternoon to argue that doing so would be legal and technically feasible.

On abortion, Palin said she’s now willing to compromise on a bill that would require parents to give their permission before girls under age 17 could get an abortion.

Palin said she’s willing to drop the requirement for consent and just accept a bill that would require parents to be notified about their teenager’s plan to have an abortion.

Palin said late last month she was not interested in the compromise

1. Um, you're not in a position to negotiate anything, fool.

2. Not looking her best in that picture, is she?
I wonder if the bloom is fading, just a tad bit? Or if keeping an eye on Putin's rearing head is beginning to take its toll on our Sarah?

3. I think this is more her style actually.
The stylish facade was made by the campaign.

4. I wonder how the freepazoids will spin her abortion compromise to make it sit right with them.
