McCain Palin 2008Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin phoned former Vice President Dick Cheney, Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani and Florida Gov. Charlie Crist in May, ABC News reported this morning.

Spokesmen for Palin and Crist declined to comment on the topic for conversation.

“GOV: Telephone Call Into Governor Crist,” reads a May 4 entry in Palin’s schedule. A spokeswoman for Crist said she did not know who had initiated contact, or what the subject of conversation was to have been, but the two did not speak. “It was a courtesy call. They know each other, both being governors,” said Crist spokeswoman Erin Isaac.
