Sarah Palin talked by phone with evangelical leader James Dobson for about 20 minutes while campaigning and expressed confidence that in spite of disheartening polls “putting this in God’s hands, that the right thing for America will be done at the end of the day on Nov. 4,” the AP reported.
Dobson’s Focus on the Family radio program aired the interview Wednesday.
From the AP: Republican vice presidential candidate Palin said she thought presidential candidate John McCain would implement the GOP platform if elected – “I do, from the bottom of my heart” – but McCain doesn’t support the platform on three issues important to evangelicals: abortion, gay marriage and embryonic stem cell research.
