Well this being said by a spokeswoman for the campaign rather than by Palin herself, there is always room for political correctness.
However I know lots of Apostolic People who philosophically feel that the term they wish to identify themselves as being is "CHRISTIAN" so that could be what is behind that as well.
In any case, my real question is Has she received the baptism of the Holy Ghost? I was pretty startled years ago to read in the same Charisma magazine that held the anonymous attack on the UPC/Oneness Pentecostals as well as the explodin' pulpit at Richard Heards church article the keynote speech of the new Superintendent of the Assemblies of God where he had startling figures as to the amazingly few members of the Assemblies of God who were receiving the Baptism of the Holy Ghost speakin gin tongues. His chilling words were that "the AoG is in danger of becoming a dinosaur. Pentecostal in our theology but NOT in our experience!" THAT was most eye opening!
