She [Palin] spent Tuesday in her hotel suite meeting with campaign aides and working on her speech. She had private sessions with Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman and members of the pro-Israel group AIPAC, said people familiar with her schedule. An AIPAC spokesman said Gov. Palin told its members she would “work to expand and deepen the strategic partnership between the U.S. and Israel.” ~The Wall Street Journal

There is nothing terribly surprising about this, since there has already been some anecdotal evidence of Palin’s “pro-Israel” attitudes, and it is pretty much inconceivable that a major party nominee would express any other sort of views.  This item should remind antiwar conservatives and non-interventionists on the right that on some of the most important policies of this government, the same policies on which McCain is horribly wrong, Gov. Palin will have zero influence and will instead be instructed on what to say by McCain’s interventionist advisors and allies.  Meanwhile, there will be little or no controversy over anything said or done in her church related to evangelism of Jews, just as Hagee was given a free pass for his more bizarre statements because he runs CUFI.  If Lieberman considers Hagee to be like Moses, one can only imagine the gushing praise he will be able to work up in the future for a woman named Sarah.
