McCain Campaign Stands Up Palin Truth-Squadding Team

[Terri]

Marc Ambinder

The McCain campaign is standing up a truth-squadding operation designed to push what they deem as "smears" about Gov. Sarah Palin out of circulation.

The team, headquartered in Arlington, includes Mark Paoletta, a former chief counsel for the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Edward O'Callaghan, a former federal prosecutor for the Southern District, and Brian Jones, a GOP strategist and former RNC research director. Jones, who stepped down as the campaign's communications director last June, and Paoletta, who became a senior adviser to the campaign in August, are volunteers; O'Callaghan is on staff.

The campaign plans to announce the team's existence today in the wake of a report by John Fund about Democratic operatives and lawyers scouring Anchorage for dirt about Palin.

"We're meeting it head on," said Brian Rogers, a campaign spokesperson.

It is GREAT to finally see the GOP stand up for themselves and their fellow conservatives for a change.

Have ya'll seen the list of lies they have compiled about her? There's a blog listing them --last time I looked, I think the number was up to 71 and that was two or three days ago..

The blogger was to appear on Fox--but, don't remember his name. Found the blog--here's the link to PALIN RUMORS (http://explorations.chasrma rtin.com/2008/09/06/palin-rumors/)

Now, now Doug, be careful about references to pigs.:D The RNC should send a squad to Chicago to dig up dirt on Obama and one to Delaware to dig dirt on Biden. Once there, don't do anything of the sort and let the commiecrats piss and moan about the tactics before laying the lumber on them again about their two faced ways of doing things.:cool:
