Palin Might Have Secret Twitter, Too

'mckinely777' follows—who else?—Sarah Palin

(Newser) – Remember Sarah Palin's (alleged) secret Facebook page? Well, it turns out she may also have a secret Twitter account. And, seeing as the mysterious "Lou Sarah" Facebook page was used to "like" things on the official Sarah Palin Facebook page, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that the "mckinely777" Twitter account is used to, yes, follow Sarah Palin's official Twitter account. Wonkette found the Twitter feed in the same way it found the Facebook page (by searching for her personal email address, as revealed in her ex-aide's leaked tell-all.)

The account, which was created Jan. 24, 2010, follows just two others—Newt Gingrich and the Drudge Report—and has not posted any tweets ("or they had been scrubbed before we got there," writes Jack Stuef for Wonkette). Palin's vague denial of the Facebook allegations also mentioned Twitter, even before anyone accused her of having a secret Twitter account: "This is my only authentic Facebook account and SarahPalinUSA is my only authentic Twitter account. Pay no attention to the fake accounts and their fake messages." (The "Lou Sarah" Facebook page has since been taken down.)

Who would name her account 'mckinely777'? Somebody who loves Alaska so much that Mt. McKinley is the first thing that comes to mind when she thinks of a random name, but somebody who also can’t spell 'McKinley.' Yeah, that sounds like Sarah Palin.

Because I am a Team Sarah member, I am aware of the facts on the matter, not the untruths stated here. what Sarah Palin has been doing is partly from learning how George Bush Junior wouldn't defend himself against liberal media lies and it hurt him in a major way. So Sarah Palin is quick to deny lies like the fake Twitter page as soon as she gets wind of it and shoots them down. Plus, people like me support her by doing blogs like I'm doing now. So liberals can keep on telling lies like that in this news article, but Sarah Palin has learned to fight them quickly and hard. Like wise, supporters like me have learned this strategy as well. Liberals can moan and groan all they want about wishing Sarah Palin and her supporters would shut up, but it won't happen. This is a free country, and Sarah Palin and her supporters will continue to exercise those rights, in whatever direction Sarah Palin takes her conservative empowerment work.

So what? Lots of people have multiple Facebook & Twitter accounts, all with different log-in names. Get a life, Envious Evann.

What a fake, on everything even Face Book and Twitter. Sarah Palin is a NOBODY.
