[RedEarth]

Source: AP

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will deliver the keynote address at a dinner sponsored by the House and Senate Republican campaign committees.

Palin, the party's 2008 nominee for vice president, will address the annual Senate-House Dinner June 8 at the Washington Convention Center.

Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, called Palin one of the GOP's most popular and recognizable faces and a proven leader who "represents a breath of fresh air from the business-as-usual crowd in Washington."

The GOP is seeking to rebuild after losing ground in the House and Senate and losing the White House in 2008.

23. i keep wondering why no one notices

palin finding more reasons to speak or make appearences to the D.C. crowd instead of trying to run her own state...

[tomm2thumbs]

20. Oberman should run a 'best of' Palin video that night on his show -

It would be quite entertaining "...also".

[DebbieCDC]

24. "A proven leader" Really? Seriously? Good luck with that. nt.

[rambler_american]

25. I can't believe

this woman is still in the news. But OTOH I sincerely hope that the Limbaugh Party is lame enough to run her for President in 2012. With Joe the (not a) plumber for VP.

[winyanstaz]

26. Please let them run her for the office of President ..please please please

and Pretty Please with sugar on it...

[rainbow4321]

34. Did she make them fill out that form

On her official state website? The one that groups are supposed to use to invite her to events? I ask cuz one of the form questions is "is the First Family invited, also?" In other words, are you paying for my whole family to come or can I get AK residents to foot the bill????
