Per CNN. He was in some kind of crash last night and is in ICU. That's why Palin cancelled her Drumpf appearance.

Well, I hate all they stand for but I wish the guy a good recovery. I also expect Drumpf to use it.

7. It was night time snow mobile accident, not snow ski.

“Todd Palin was in a bad snow machine accident last night and is currently hospitalized,” Trump’s campaign said in a release. “Governor Palin is returning to Alaska to be with her husband and looks forward to being back on the campaign trail soon. Mr. Trump’s thoughts and prayers are with the Palin family at this time.”

NBC News reported that Todd Palin was in “a very serious” crash Sunday night and is currently hospitalized in intensive care.

Talking night time and Palins, probably was alcohol involved.

17. Sorry. Brain ceased working.

Jet skis I know. I had a bit of a brain fart re snow skis and snowmobiles.

[Divernan]

20. I used to have a jet ski - a SeaDoo! Really fun!

8. Things can go bad very fast on a snowmobile

A tree branch or rock hidden by snow, a patch of ice under one ski with the other in soft snow, a moment of distraction, snow softer than expected on a turn... All sorts of things can cause problems. Coupled with the speed usually involved with the machines, it can get bad very quickly.

I've been around those for quite a while, and seen some bad stuff happen for many reasons.

Best wishes to the guy, the trauma possible with those sort of incidents can be severe.

9. I hope he has full recovery. Wishing the best for Sarah and her family. n/t

10. If he's diagnosed with brain damage..

..would that count as a pre-existing condition?

11. Found an article....

A source told NBC News that Todd Palin was in "a very serious" crash Sunday night and is currently hospitalized in intensive care.

In a statement, Trump's campaign said: "Todd Palin was in a bad snow machine accident last night and is currently hospitalized. Governor Palin is returning to Alaska to be with her husband and looks forward to being back on the campaign trail soon. Mr. Trump's thoughts and prayers are with the Palin family at this time."

The former Alaska governor will stop by a Trump town hall in Tampa but has canceled her other planned appearances with the GOP frontrunner, whom she endorsed earlier this year. She has been in contact with medical personnel and will be traveling back to Alaska today, the source said.

Palin was scheduled to appear on Trump's behalf at noon ET in The Villages, Florida. Just minutes before its scheduled start time, the Trump campaign advised that the event had been canceled....

I wish him a speedy recovery and if I am to be honest, I cannot help but wonder if alcohol was involved.

[TacoD]

22. I too cannot help but wonder if alcohol was involved

His family has shown a predilection toward drunkenness.

24. I am no snowmobiling expert, but is riding around at night a thing?

I know up in northern Maine there is this restaurant-bar at the end of a well groomed, wide, and neatly defined trail that some enthusiasts like to go eat/drink at and then putter home, but you'd think it would be smart to take your time and go slow in the dark like that...I know they have halfassed headlights...but still...!!!

[Raine1967]

12. I really hope he was wearing a Helmet.

Snowmobile's are nothing to mess with when going fast.

[11 Bravo]

13. I wish him a speedy recovery. I also hope that Bristol doesn't trip ...

and fall on another dick on her way to an abstinence-only rally.

14. Some how Obama's

Fault.

[Glimmer of Hope]

15. That is terrible. I wish him a full and speedy recovery.

[B Calm]

18. Why do they say snow machine instead of snowmobile?

Snow machine creates snow for ski resorts.

[jpak]

19. Snow guns make snow - snowmobile, snow machine and sled are synonyms here in Maine

Speed and/or alcohol are the causes of snow mobile accidents here too.

[Divernan]

23. Actually, jet skis are called personal watercraft.

As a scuba diver I got certified on a dive propulsion vehicle, also known as an underwater propulsion vehicle. That was on a great dive trip to Grand Cayman. Back when I could afford to travel, before the 2008 crash and I lost most of my retirement savings. Glad I went on a lot of dive trips, would have lost the money anyway and I had some hella great experiences - the best was diving on sunken WW II Japanese ships in Micronesia (Truk Lagoon).

UPVs are seen in several James Bond films. The top models can go to 130 feet (maximum depth for a recreational diver) and operate for more than an hour. Cue the 007 theme.

25. Da da DA daaaah....da da da!!!!!!

[WI_DEM]

21. You never hear much about him

Wish him well.

[CincyDem]

26. The whole family is doofus but this we shouldn't wish on anyone.

Speedy recovery Mr. Todd. Come back soon so we can have more fun with the absolutely dumb chit stuff you do.

[nolabear]

28. Agreed. Btw now hearing it might not be so bad and Palin is still with Drumpf.

Hard work o know what to believe these days.

[yortsed snacilbuper]

29. Does he have Obamcare?

[livetohike]

30. Wasn't he a champion snow machine racer at one time?

Hope he has a full recovery.

[Gothmog]

31. i am praying for a speedy and complete recovery
