"Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (http://www.politico.com/p/pages/sarah-palin) said Tuesday that it’s a “shame” former Vice President Dick Cheney considers her vice presidential selection a misfire (http://www.politico.com//blogs/politico-live/2012/07/cheney-picking-palin-as-vp-a-mistake-130398.html), but she might be joining Cheney in skipping the Republican National Convention.
“Well, seeing as how Dick — excuse me, Vice President Cheney — never misfires, then evidently, he’s quite convinced that what he had evidently read about me by the lamestream media — having been written what I believe is a false narrative over the last four years — evidently, Dick Cheney believes that stuff, and that’s a shame,” Palin said on Fox News’s “On The Record with Greta Van Susteren.”
.....
"The former governor said she was unbothered by criticism from Cheney and other GOP heavyweights.
“In the GOP establishment, what I have found, Greta, sometimes you’re the Louisville slugger, baby,” she said. “Sometimes, you’re the ball. And evidently, in these last months, per many, many comments from those within the GOP establishment, I’m the ball.”
Palin didn’t know if she’d be joining those establishment figures at the GOP convention in Tampa. Cheney, along with former Presidents George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush, is skipping the event.
