(CNN)— Governor Sarah Palin accused “Obama-Biden Democrats,” of launching a series of unfair attacks against her and her family in a fundraising email sent to supporters Monday.
“Friends, in the course of a few weeks, the Obama-Biden Democrats have launched attack after attack on me, my family and John McCain,” Palin writes in the email. “They’re desperate to win and they’ll no doubt launch these attacks against other reformers on our ticket.”
Watch: Obama says discussion of Sarah Palin's family is 'off-limits'
Earlier this month, the McCain campaign said its $47 million fundraising record for the month of August was due in large part to the addition of the Alaska governor to the ticket. Her presence on the campaign trail has also translated into larger crowds at campaign events throughout the country.
Palin said Obama and Biden have a “large financial advantage,” urging supporters that a contribution of any size will help stop the spread of “lies” and “misinformation” coming from Democrats.
“We must stop them,” Palin writes, “...before they turn these shameful tactics on others we support.”
Earlier this month when Obama was asked about Bristol Palin’s pregnancy, the Illinois senator repeated previous calls that “people’s families are off-limits.”
“This shouldn’t be part of our politics,” Obama said “It has no relevance to show Governor Palin’s performance as a governor or her potential performance as a vice president.”

Goodness, these current Republicans are SOOOOO good at telling lies and bashing their opponents and then saying their opponents are doing it! Incredible! MORE LIES!
OBAMA/BIDEN ALL THE WAY!!!
Hey Palin, we have facts that account for your lies. If you are going to accuse them of anything bring out the evidence! But you are probably still lying and do not have anything to back up your claim.
What a crock! Don't believe the hype!
No to the community organizer-No to inexperience-No to socialism-NO to OBAMA.
I agree, Gov. Palin will make a great vice-president. I thought cafferty got fired?
Hold up, Miss Bridge to Nowhere...
"They're desperate to win and they’ll no doubt launch these attacks against other reformers on our ticket..." I think what you meant to say is "We're desperate to win and we’ll no doubt launch these attacks against other reformers on their ticket."
It's the desperation that got you on the ticket to begin with, Gov. Palin... you're part of the most lie riddled party we've ever had.
SHE JUST TOLD ANOTHER LIE WHEN SHE SAID THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN WAS LYING ON HER AND MCFORGETFUL
REGISTER TO VOTE AND GO OUT AND VOTE, THE RETHUGS WILL SAY ANYTHING AND DO ANYTHING TO WIN
Everybody lies,why not me...oh, I sound like a pelican!
Obama has been all rhetoric and lies since the beginning... a new type of campaigning? no negativity? accepting public funding? btw, Bob: the Democrats control Congress: how about them sharing some blame? Their approval rating is half of the President's. Paul: it's not pathetic when the Democrats play the victim card?
oh please, Palin is a pathological liar. Another example of how un-Christian she really is...
CNN and its supporters keep ragging on Sarah Palin but she just keeps on smiling, drawing huge crowds (50,000 on Sunday), and moving ahead. I can see it eating up Keith Olbermann's insides. I can't wait to see Olbermannn's pain on election night.
Sarah Palin 12 & 16'
“Friends, in the course of a few weeks, the Obama-Biden Democrats have launched attack after attack on me, my family and John McCain,” Palin writes in the email. “They’re desperate to win and they’ll no doubt launch these attacks against other reformers on our ticket.”
Technically, she's right. There has been attack after attack BECAUSE of lie after lie. But yes, we are 'attacking' and will continue to 'attack' until this damm thing is over. If 'attacking' is calling someone out on nothing but lies then what is the outright lie itself called? It's called 'I ain't got nothin' so let me try to rig this thing.'
Obama is spreading lies about his socialistic views,, ask him for the whole story... ask the hows and why... ask him about how he can be pro choice... only if your in line soon enough...
Oh PLEASE! Even Nixon told the truth more often than McCain and Palin. That screechy voice of hers is getting on my nerves.
> “We must stop them,” Palin writes, “…before they turn these shameful
> tactics on others we support.”
Was she looking in the mirror when she said this? Maybe she was standing on that Bridge to Nowhere.
you said "no to that bridge to nowhere"...you said "i'm an open book" – can you say troopergate??? you brought a surplus – no you left wasilla in debt. shall i continue...mccain doesn't know how many homes he has, mccain doesn't know about fiorina's golden parachute, totally for deregulation until last week...the economy is fundamentally sound...& last but not least KEATING FIVE!!!!!!
Wow, I think I just threw up a little bit in my mouth...this is just ridiculous now...excuse me, the democrats are lying? Bridge to no where? The troppergate mess? The ebay plane? Look in the mirror ...McCain/Palin are the liars! AND NO ONE FROM THE OBAMA/BIDEN CAMPAIGN HAS TALKED ABOUT YOUR FAMILY!! LIARS!!!!
If Palin claims anything is "unfair" again I'm just going to puke. Nothing is "unfair" or "off limits" in my opinion when you're running for the highest office in the US - especially when you consider what's come from her own campaign!!
Please inform us. What are the lies you are being accused of. It would help greatly your case. Otherwise it is all talk.
That has to be the most pathetic claim in presidential history. The most lying camaign in history has the nerve to say obama-biden are the liars. Numerous media outlets have called palin on her repeated lies and she has the nerve to call someone a liar. PLEASE, palin is a joke with no presidential credibilty. This coming from a person that goes on fox news for interviews because real journalists would eat her alive.
I guess when she stops reading of the promter and having planned interviews and starts taking direct questions we will find out how fast she can make up new lies
I think most "intelligent" americans can see through the humor of this "call". Again...i think they are "making stuff up". The biggest Liars are accusing the other side now...is this some sort of sic irony?
And those lies are...? Could she even name one? Just name one! Come on, Sarah – just name one! You can't – you just cry, cry, cry about lies. Oh, by the way Sarah – sounds like whinning to me – didn't you take Hillary to task about that? Oops.
Did I miss something is Palin the one running for President or is it Mccain? Oh I forgot its the "Palin / Mccain" ticket. Everybody is talking about how she energized the base but its just sad that if wasnt for her Mccain would be dead in the water, yet she brings nothing to the table.
Obama / Biden '08
HAHAHAHA ....isn't THAT the pot calling the kettle black. And yes nice double meaning there (unintended).
