Memo to the McCain Campaign: Do not anger Phyllis Schlafly!

Not much surprises me anymore. But when I saw this story, my Jaw dropped!

John McCain or Sarah Palin for that matter, does not want to tick this woman off! Who?

This one:

This, my friends, is Phyllis Schlafly.

This, my friends, is everything Conservative female. This woman is who Ann Coulter should be. But, quite frankly, could not hold a candle to.

But as usual, the “Maverick” has crossed his own base. 🙄

The Story Via ABC News:

ABC News’ Teddy Davis reports: Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly is taking the McCain campaign to task for notifying her at the last minute that Sarah Palin will be a no-show on Tuesday when the Republican National Coalition for Life holds an event honoring the Alaska governor.

“I think this is clearly somebody in the McCain campaign who doesn’t understand where the votes are coming from,” Schlafly told ABC News. “They only told me this at 10 o’clock last night, and it was a call from somebody down-the-line in the McCain campaign.

“The pro-lifers who paid $95 to come to this event because of Sarah Palin are going to be very unhappy,” she added.

Schlafly is expecting 800 people, most of whom are delegates to the Republican National Convention, to attend Tuesday’s reception at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in St. Paul, Minn. The event runs from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. CT.

Schlafly added that Tuesday’s event would have been a good opportunity for Palin to quickly address her daughter’s pregnancy and to eliminate further discussion of it.

“She was not going to be subjected to questions at this event,” said Schlafly.

Asked what she plans to say about the cancellation at the event, Schlafly said, “I am certainly going to say that it was McCain that canceled.”

Whoa Boy, Something tells me that John McCain is going to have some serious issues comes this election. One this going to be one of them.

Exit Comment: I’ve heard of stiffing the base, but this? Yikes! 😯 😮
