George Talbot from the Mobile Press-Register offered this tidbit through his Twitter feed from the Business Council of Alabama conference in Point Clear, AL today:
BCA buzz: rumors about a Palin event in Ala for one of the candidates. Her appearance fee: $50k
Of course this news was breaking around the same time we were beginning to see reports that Sarah and Todd Palin are divorcing…talk about your bad timing…
After much discussion amongst the Alabama Political Discussion Crew (#alpdc)…it seems we believe that the state GOP may be planning a fundraiser with Palin, not any one particular candidate…though I have not been able to get any confirmation of that as of yet.
Stay tuned…
UPDATE: A denial of the divorce rumor has been issued by Sarah Palin’s attorney.
UPDATE 2: Indications from those in Point Clear are that George Talbot’s initial indications were correct, and that a candidate is seriously pursuing Palin, while party officials have considered the idea.
UPDATE 3: And the letter that was sent to the Alaska Report from Palin’s attorney.
