Trump cancels Palin rally after her husband's snow machine accident
A joint rally between Sarah Palin and GOP front-runner Donald Trump was canceled on Monday after Palin's husband was involved in a "serious" snow machine accident in their home state of Alaska.
Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 vice presidential nominee, was supposed to appear at a rally in Florida with Trump, whom she endorsed ahead of the Iowa caucuses earlier this year.
But the event was canceled after Palin's husband, Todd, was involved in an accident that left him hospitalized in intensive care. Palin is headed back to Alaska to be by his side.
