I'm guessing we can look forward to an onslaught of ads stating she was for the bridge before she was against it. Given she's on video, radio and in print making these comments I'd say this is a sign she is completely out of her element in national politics. I'm very surprised the McCain people would let her make these comments in her speech.
BTW-several sources are saying the bridge was killed but she kept the money for it to be used on other Alaskan projects. She claimed she sent the money back to Washington. Any one know if that's true or is it another rumor?
