Sarah Palin is not the reformer that she, John McCain, and the GOP are making her out to be. In fact, she once supported one of the biggest pork barrel projects of all time: the now infamous "Bridge to Nowhere." Huffington Post has all the details on Palin's flip-flop. And TPM Muckraker has the truth about Palin's so-called reformist credentials.
