Palin being used in Planned Parenthood ads

New York, Sept.26 : The prospect of pro-life Alaska Governor Sarah Palin becoming vice president is being used in Planned Parenthood fund-raising ads.

A wicked web campaign is underway urging foes of Palin to make a donation to the organization in Palin's name, reports the New York Daily News.

The e-mail lists Palin's address as Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign headquarters in Arlington, Virginia.

"We have seen an increase in donations" as a result of the campaign, said Planned Parenthood spokesman Tait Sye.

"People are responding to how out-of-touch McCain and Palin are on women's health and they wanted to do something about it," Sye added.

Sye said they're still calculating the Palin-spurred donations and will release a figure next week.

It was not clear who launched the anti-Palin campaign, but the Connecticut woman who forwarded the e-mail to The Daily News said: "I hope it goes around the world and Planned Parenthood is flooded with donations."

The McCain campaign could not immediately be reached for comment.
