This is simultaneously pathetic and hilarious. FOX News reports:
The GOP Vice-Presidential nominee said at an earlier fundraiser that she would stop some of the booing from the rowdy Philadelphia fans by putting her seven year old daughter, Piper in a Flyers jersey. She said, "How dare they boo Piper!"
So basically Sarah Palin has been reduced to the "human shield" defense.
Also worth noting: the video that FOX used on its web site cut off the most intense boing, which came right as the Palin's presence was announced.
