Palin to RNC: Take me off fundraiser
By ANDY BARR | 3/31/10 10:22 PM EDT .

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has asked the Republican National Committee to remove her name from a fundraiser the committee is planning piggybacking off of the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, POLITICO has learned.

Palin’s staff has twice told the RNC to remove her name from an invitation sent to donors, obtained by POLITICO on Wednesday, showing her as an “invited” speaker to the four-day fundraiser in New Orleans, timed to coincide with the SRLC event in Louisiana.

Palin, who will appear at SRLC, “will not take part in any RNC fundraiser in New Orleans,” an aide said.

The RNC invitation touts Palin along with other SRLC speakers, including Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Fox News host Sean Hannity, Rep. Mike Pence (R-Ind.) and former Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.), as “invited speakers” for the event.

Santorum is the only speaker advertised on the invitation who is confirmed to attend the fundraiser.

8. Is she doing this because

Perkins is telling people to not donate to the RNC but to individual candidates because of the Michael Steele/BDSM club thing?

9. She wants only money that travels to her own pockets.

Maybe the greatest political fraud of my lifetime, and I'm nearly 60. Elmer Gantry was a sincere person next to Sarah. But her cultists just don't care.
