The Associated Press captured Sarah Palin's note to herself as she rallied in New Jersey on Saturday against prolific Twitter user Cory Booker.
"We need a leader not a tweeter...That was poem-worthy - I've got to remember that one," she said in her stump speech for candidate Steve Lonegan at the New Egypt Speedway on Saturday. Lonegan and Booker are running for U.S. Senate in a special election Wednesday to fill the vacancy created by the death of Frank Lautenberg. Palin apparently needed extra help remembering the seven-word rhyme she praised. An AP photographer snapped a picture of the palm of her hand, revealing the words "leader not tweeter" written with a red marker. Palin made no mention of her own tweeting history and Lonegan's recently fired strategist who said he had interpreted Booker's tweets to be a revelation he might be gay. While Booker has 1.4 million followers, Palin has 977,000. Lonegan has 5,200.
According to Palin, the media is lying about Booker's 12 point lead in the polls.

Nope, that's not it. Need dope, not rope. No, no. I'll remember it yet. It was catchy like those and almost made as much sense.
