It must be troubling when the backbone of one’s short lived campaign identity fails you at the most unexpected time.
Vice Presidential candidate Gov. Sarah Palin takes pride in the fact that she is a hockey mom. Constantly she tries to make a connection between herself and the many hockey families across the country that take on the same challenges of juggling children and responsibilities. This past weekend Gov. Palin made an appearance at the Philadelphia Flyers game to drop the ceremonial first puck.
Her appearance was not greeted with roars of sympathetic fans who can relate to her as a struggling mother, instead she was serenaded with boos.
It was a game between the New York Rangers and the Philly Flyers, two of the biggest hockey markets in the country, yet Gov. Palin got no compassion. Yes it was a bit classless to boo a mother and her two young smiling daughters as they timidly walk on the ice.
However it is a reminder that Gov. Palin in fact has a third child, a five month old son, whom appears to be spending another lonely night with the sitter.
