What Palin Didn't Say


Thanks to Sarah Palin, the Frog has discovered Mudflats, an Alaskan blog written by "a citizen who is paying attention."

An iss AKMuckraker ever paying attention to Sarah.

Upon Palin's return to Alaska after her two weeks abroad in the Lower 48, the AK blogger asks readers to consider what Palin did not say to the waiting Fairbanks Faithful.

So what didn’t she say? She didn’t use her famous, “commyuunity orrrganizer” line, and pulled back on the snarky comments about Obama. Obama won 75% of the caucus votes in Alaska, and turned the state (until recently) into an actual ’swing state’ for the first time in memory. Don’t underestimate Obama’s support in Alaska.

She also didn’t say, “And I said ‘Thanks, but no thanks’ on that Bridge to Nowhere.” It’s tough to lie to the home town crowd. Besides, it wasn’t on the teleprompter.

Is it just me or is the whole First Dude title just a bit too much to take?
