Back When Palin Was Running For Governor...

Via Balloon Juice:

Remember that bridge to nowhere Sarah Palin was supposed to have opposed and stopped, since she is a mavericky reformer and soulmate of John McCain?

Well, Andrew Halcro has some interesting quotes, including this:

"Palin said Alaska’s congressional delegation worked hard to obtain funding for the bridge as part of a package deal and that she ‘would not stand in the way of the progress toward that bridge."

Even better, though, is this picture of Palin and her team campaigning in Ketchikan, back when their votes mattered and the bridge was a good thing:

Let's not forget what Sarah Palin said the night she was introduced to the nation as the potential 72 year old heartbeat away from the presidency:

In fact, I told Congress — I told Congress, "Thanks, but no thanks," on that bridge to nowhere.

Well, maybe Sarah Palin is ready to be on the GOP ticket...she has the lying thing down pat.
