I thinks Gov. Palin has overreached a bit with this latest statement. Most politicians will "embellish" on the campaign trail. We don't really know the extent to which Palin really felt Obama "palled around with terrorists" and was bad for the country, or if she was following the McCain campaign attack points...we'll probably have to just wait for her book.
She'd have been better off in this instance just saying she wished the new president well, and was hoping for the best, not saying that she was "proud" of him. That strains the credulity of even the most casual political observer, never mind people who really follow the political process.
