Palin’s Bridge to Nowhere T-Shirt

Mon, September 08, 2008 - 12:39 PM

With a new McCain campaign ad touting Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's stopping of the so-called Bridge to Nowhere, Obama aides pounced, alerting media to this picture of Palin supporting the $398 million bridge project and holding up a t-shirt that said “Nowhere, Alaska."

Well, before she stopped supporting the project and redirected federal money to other road projects, Palin campaigned for governor as a supporter of the bridge construction, saying the state had to act quickly while it had a senior congressional delegation able to draw down the federal funds for the project.

Palin and McCain will appear together at a 10 a.m. rally Wednesday at Virginia’s Fairfax High School.
