The corrupt media is so eager to create the appearance of a rift between John McCain and running mate Sarah Palin that ABC found themselves having to retract a story based on a quote they enthusiastically misrepresented.
Asked about 2012, whether she was discouraged by daily campaign attacks and whether she would return home to Alaska, the Republican vice presidential nominee said she was focused on defeating Democrat Barack Obama next week.
“I think that, if I were to give up and wave a white flag of surrender against some of the political shots that we’ve taken … I’m not doing this for naught,” Palin told ABC News in a taped interview airing on Thursday.
A campaign spokesperson said Palin was talking about being focused on winning the White House this year and is not going to quit despite her critics.
In its initial report on the interview, ABC said Palin was looking ahead to the 2012 election cycle, regardless of the outcome of the November 4 vote.
ABC issued a revised release after the McCain campaign clarified Palin’s comment.
All you’d have to do is watch one or twelve recent interviews with Governor Palin to know that she always answers this question in this manner. Or, they could have just looked at this answer the Governor gave them later in the interview.
With less than a week before Election Day, Palin told ABC she believes in the current Republican presidential ticket and that she thinks “it’s going to go our way on Tuesday, November 4.”
“I truly believe that the wisdom of the people will be revealed on that day,” she said.
If ABC and the rest of the life-support media is so desperately looking for different answers to questions, maybe it’s time to start asking different questions instead of the same tired questions based on their own presumptions over and over again.
