Politico’s definitely got the scoop of the day, in the form of disgruntled ex-Palin aide Frank Bailey’s unpublished e-mail-laced tell-all memoir. Best reported e-mail quote, by Palin after she was disinvited from a GOP congressional fundraiser in favor of Newt Gingrich:

Yes, (Newt/GOP) are egotistical, narrow minded machine goons… but all
the more reason God protected me from getting up on stage in front of
5000 political and media ‘elites’ to praise him, then it be shown across
the nation.

At some point Newt would have shown his true colors anyway and we would
have been devastated having known we’d earlier prostituted ourselves up
in front of the country introducing him and acting like that good ol’
rich white guy is the savior of the party.
