Palin: God will do the right thing on election day
FINDLAY, Ohio (CNN) - In an interview posted online Wednesday, Sarah Palin told Dr. James Dobson of Focus on the Family that she is confident God will do the right thing for America on Nov. 4.
Dobson asked the vice presidential hopeful if she is concerned about John McCains sagging poll numbers, but Palin stressed that she was not discouraged at all.
To me, it motivates us, makes us work that much harder, she told the influential Christian leader, whose radio show reaches millions of listeners daily. And it also strengthens my faith because I know at the end of the day putting this in Gods hands, the right thing for America will be done, at the end of the day on Nov. 4.
Dobson praised Palin's opposition to abortion rights, to which the governor affirmed that she is hardcore pro-life.
She said giving birth to her son Trig, who has Down syndrome, has given her the opportunity to be walking the walk and not just talking the talk in her long-standing opposition to abortion.
Dobson who has never been warm to McCain asked Palin if her private conversations with the GOP nominee had revealed a true commitment to the Republican partys pro-life platform, which calls for a constitutional amendment banning abortions.
"I do, from the bottom of my heart," Palin assured Dobson. John McCain is solidly there on those solid planks in our platform that build the right agenda for America.
She also thanked her supporters including Dobson, who said he and his wife were asking for Gods intervention on election day for their prayers of support.
It is that intercession that is so needed, she said. And so greatly appreciated. And I can feel it too, Dr. Dobson. I can feel the power of prayer, and that strength that is provided through our prayer warriors across this nation. And I so appreciate it.
The interview was taped on Monday by phone while Palin was campaigning in Colorado Springs, where Focus on the Family is headquartered.
