“So Sambo beat the bitch!”
This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin
described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political
colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama locked up the
Democratic Party presidential nomination.
According to Lucille, the waitress serving her table at the time and
who asked that her last name not be used, Gov. Palin was eating lunch
with five or six people when the subject of the Democrat’s primary
battle came up. The governor, seemingly not caring that people at
nearby tables would likely hear her, uttered the slur and then laughed
loudly as her meal mates joined in appreciatively.
“It was kind of disgusting,” Lucille, who is part Aboriginal, said
in a phone interview after admitting that she is frightened of being
discovered telling folks in the “lower 48” about life near the North
Pole.
Then, almost with a sigh, she added, “But that’s just Alaska.”
Racial and ethnic slurs may be “just Alaska” and, clearly, they are common, everyday chatter for Palin.
Besides insulting Obama with a Step-N’-Fetch-It, “darkie musical”
swipe, people who know her say she refers regularly to Alaska’s
Aboriginal people as “Arctic Arabs” – how efficient, lumping two
apparently undesirable groups into one ugly description – as well as
the more colourful “mukluks” along with the totally unimaginative
“f**king Eskimo’s,” according to a number of Alaskans and Wasillians
interviewed for this article"

I realise this is only hearsay without proof. But she seems the type to me.
