‘The View’ co-host campaigning with Palin

NEW YORK – “The View” co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck will stump for vice presidential contender Sarah Palin in Florida this weekend.

“Gov. Palin asked me to be with her this Sunday to introduce her at the rallies in Florida. I am more than honored to be there,” Hasselbeck said Thursday on the TV talk show. “I’ll have some stories, I’m sure, on Monday.”

Palin is scheduled to appear today at campaign rallies in Tampa and Kissimmee, Fla.

Co-host Joy Behar couldn’t resist tweaking her conservative colleague on the air.

“I want to see her wardrobe,” Behar said mischievously, a reference to the GOP’s $150,000 expenditure on designer clothes and beauty services for the Alaska governor. Hasselbeck smiled but didn’t respond.

Hasselbeck has worn her support for the Republican ticket proudly: Earlier this week, she appeared on the show in a T-shirt with the lettering: “Great AmeriMcCain Hero.”
