Christine O'Donnell to speak at Palin event

The Des Moines Register reported last night that Christine O'Donnell will take the stage "shortly" before Sarah Palin in Iowa this weekend.

The rally has big buzz since, initially, quite a few folks speculated that Palin would announce a presidential run there. But the Palin team has strenuously denied it.

As for O'Donnell, Palin's endorsement in her 2010 Delaware Senate race helped O'Donnell win the primary.

Charles Krauthammer called Palin "capricious" and "irresponsible" for the endorsement, since it robbed the GOP of a candidate who would have most likely won the general election.

UPDATE: The organizer says he made a mistake, and O'Donnell will not be speaking.
