On the trail in Michigan, the Illinois Senator hits his new opponent hard Monday for her stance on the infamous earmark.

"She was for it until everybody started raising a fuss about it and she started running for governor and then suddenly she was against it!"

"I mean you can't just make stuff up. You can't just recreate yourself. You can't just reinvent yourself. The American people aren't stupid."

Plus: McCain defends Palin in local NBC interview, saying, "Gov. Palin learned that earmarks are bad and she did say, we don't need our Bridge to Nowhere."
