(Newser) – Sarah Palin is following some fellow Republicans on Twitter, but she's not showing any love for former running mate John McCain.The Alaska governor is keeping tabs on Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly of Fox, David Gregory of NBC, George Stephanopoulos of ABC, and CNN, but not nemesis Katie Couric—or anyone else from CBS, the Washington Examiner reports.

"AP gravely misquoted my staff, saying I 'changed my mind' on the stimulus package," the newbie recently tweeted, providing a link "for accurate info."

The Republican party should have never gievn any attention to her let alone allow her to be the running mate on the ticket-but it does support their pattern of self-destryctive behavior and death wish-Keep goin Rush L. I love to laugh

Too bad McCain didn't ignore her long ago and she would still be unknown. However as for her and the stimulus package if people go look at how much Alaska has put in for it, it is kind of like the lie she told about money for the bridge to nowhere. This woman wouldn't know how to tell the truth or accept responsibility for anything if her life depended on it. Thankfully the countries life doesn't.

Sarah uses a Twitter ghost-writer? Add lazy and stupid to the list.
