No matter how much they try to hide it, Sarah Palin and her hubby Todd can’t shake the fact that they have courted the Alaskan Independent Party (AIP) for many years. Todd himself was a member from 1995–2002 (with a brief hiatus in 2000). As for Sarah, she addressed the Party’s convention in 2000, and again in 2008 as well.

Chairman of the AIP Lynette Clark told ABC News that both Sarah and Todd Palin were members in 1994. Ms. Clark was AIP secretary at the time.
