In a televised interview Friday, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she sought $200 million in federal from Congress - while earlier in the day her GOP running mate insisted Palin had never sought money from Congress.

In a second ABC interview with Charlie Gibson, the GOP vice presidential candidate acknowledged that she has supported millions of dollars in congressional money - including the famed Bridge to Nowhere - to allow Alaska "to plug into ... along with every other state, a share of the federal budget in infrastructure."

But she said she and McCain would change seek to reform that system.


It should be "seek change" not "change seek".
