Please note that's Independence Party, not Independent Party.
Palin attended their convention in 1994 and again in 2000. Her husband, the First Dude, has been a member for years, though he's now registered as independent. She spoke to their convention this year via videotape. What's an elected governor, sworn to uphold her state's constitution doing addressing a group sworn to destroy it? Can you imagine the outrage if Obama had attended such a convention?
The McCain camp produced her voter registration to show that she has never been a member, but that doesn't mean that she doesn't support their agenda. They've denied that she attended the 1994 convention, but ABC has people who say they saw her there.

"The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government...and I won't be buried under their damn flag." - Joe Vogler, Founder of the Alaskan Independence Party (AIP)
