Team Sarah to play on

Word comes from Team Sarah, a group dedicated to the political advancement of the Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and her political goals, that they're still enthusiastic about their namesake.

This comes in a press release that is, admittedly, a bit dated because it got hung up in the newspaper's spam filter. (Note to self: reset spam filter to let anything with "Palin" through, at least until all the porn spam catches on and throws in that word.)

Palin's announcement that she's not running for re-election and not finishing her term as a lame duck seems not to have deterred the team. So it could be this is the team she was talking about in her point guard analogy of driving through the full court press, eyes on the basket and passing off the ball.

Of course, no point guard from Gonzaga University ever walked off the court and out of the arena after getting the ball down the court.



The Spokesman-Review's political team keeps a critical eye on local, state and national politics.
