    Rell, Avoiding Possible Cat Fight With Palin, Blows Off RGA Conference

    Thursday Nov. 14, 2008

    What could be a better destination than Miami in November?
    Apparently Connecticut, where Gov. M. Jodi Rell is staying this week rather than hanging with her GOP homeboys at the Republican Governors Association meeting down there in the sun and amid the palm trees.
    Donna Tommelleo, Rell's Capitol spokeswoman, just told the Blogster that it's no time for the governor to lose focus on the state's potential financial nightmare.
    "The Governor could not justify the time nor the expense of attending the convention and feels her time is better spent here addressing to the pressing economic needs of Connecticut," Tommelleo said in an e-mail response.
    The Blogtser thinks that Rell is staying home to avoid an angry confrontation with Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who so obviously dragged down the GOP presidential ticket during the recent troubles of November 4.

    Or maybe she is afraid to face her fellow Republican governors after urging the CT Congressional delegation to support another stimulus package. Not very Republican I don't think.

    maybe governor Rell is a better example gop leader than PALIN, keeping family together not wedor mom to be @17 years old.

    Or maybe Ken Dixon is just a typical Palin hater and is looking for any excuse to play that roll, because he doesn't know what he's talking about.
