Starting today, South Carolina voters will be getting calls from Sarah Palin. Palin recorded a robocall in support of Republican gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley, the frontrunner in the upcoming primary who is now dealing with a second affair allegation in as many weeks.
In the call, Palin praises Haley’s willingness to “take on the entrenched powers,” and adds, apparently alluding to the recent controversy, “when you do that, they come after you with all kinds of made-up nonsense to try to knock you down. Believe me, I’ve been there.” Haley has suggested that the allegations are the work of her political enemies.
