Despite having given several interviews and public statements since the Republican National Convention, John McCain’s official website makes no reference to other speeches that Palin has given in the last 5 weeks.
In fact, just yesterday, Palin spoke at a fund raising event in Colorado but the event goes unremarked on the website.
Earlier today, there was a video on youtube of Palin’s October 4th speech in Englewood, CO, for some reason it has been removed. Time Magazine received the governor’s “full statement“. It seems to me, however, that some of Palin’s comment is missing, so here is link to a New York Times article that quotes Palin’s speech at length.
Now that I have read and seen the full statement, maybe the McCain website is correct that Palin has not given any “speeches” since the RNC. Do you know of any Palin appearances that should be noted by McCain’s page?
I would say that this situation represents my biggest difficulty in writing palinverbatim. The Governor of Alaska website never contained Palin’s 2008 speeches and recently her 2007 speeches have become inaccessible. Finding verbatim material is also difficult because excerpts are easily available through various media outlets but the primary source is not. I am going to try to work past this issue this week and hopefully provide some less-discussed material.
