The Note: Palin stiffs the House Republicans

This is too rich. I guess the future of the "hint, hint, Sarah Palin" Republican Party (according to Rush Limbaugh) had more important things to do today... as in trying to get federal money and hob bobbing with President Obama.



The Note: Palin stiffs the House Republicans: "ABC News' Jonathan Karl reports: When House Republicans planned their annual winter retreat, they extended an invitation to Alaska Gov. Sara Palin, hoping the party's 2008 vice presidential nominee would give a morale-building speech to the more than 130 Republican members of Congress gathered this weekend in Hot Springs, Va.
Retreat organizers tell ABC News that Palin politely declined, giving a perfectly understandable reason. According to the Congressional Institute, which hosted the conference, Palin said she simply could not make it to the retreat because pressing state business made it impossible for her to leave Alaska this weekend.
So where is Palin this weekend? She's in Washington, D.C., attending the super-elite Alfalfa Dinner.
'She lied to us,' said a Republican at the retreat."
