US ElectionsSarah Palin supported Ketchikan ‘bridge to nowhere’ during 2006 race for Alaska Gov.; newsminer.com • Sarah Palin supported Ketchikan ‘bridge to nowhere’ during 2006 race for Alaska governor
“I championed reform ...
“I championed reform to end the abuses of earmark spending by Congress,” Palin said at her first campaign appearance. “In fact, I told Congress — I told Congress, ‘Thanks, but no thanks,’ on that bridge to nowhere. If our state wanted a bridge, I said we’d build it ourselves.”
That is not how Palin described her position on the Gravina Island bridge when she ran for governor in 2006.
On Oct. 22, 2006, the Anchorage Daily News asked Palin and the other candidates, “Would you continue state funding for the proposed Knik Arm and Gravina Island bridges?”
Her response: “Yes. I would like to see Alaska’s infrastructure projects built sooner rather than later. The window is now — while our congressional delegation is in a strong position to assist.”
I'm not sure if this has been brought up yet. If so could one of the mods merge it with a like-thread. Thanks.

Yes, but I figured why post links if you're going to post the same exact thread multiple times anyway. I assume you knew you had posted the first one when you decided to post another.
