It was in all the blogs.

Well, as it turns out, not so much. The Republican-leaning blog Hot Air reports that Palin has been a registered Republican since 1982 and has never been a member of AIP. As mayor of Wasilla, she made an appearance at the AIP convention when it was held in the town.

My two cents: As a former member of the Libertarian Party, I’d hate to be remembered for that mistake. So, I’d be willing to overlook something like that. But turns out to be yet another false rumor about this woman.
