Palin Tuesday Disaster Clean Up

Reviews are coming in: Obama hits 50% in two polls. Intrade opens up a market on Palin withdrawing, currently at 15%.

Last Thursday, while Obama was getting ready to crush the enemies of the Republic, maverick reformer Sarah Palin's Communications Director Bill McCallister said:

"Open and transparent government was something that came up during the campaign and was largely in reference to the stranded gas act versus the AGIA concept under Governor Palin."

And below is the reason Palin has a fresh attorney. (Side note: You can tell a truly fresh attorney because they smell like ball point pens and leather BMW seats.)

Troopergate- Sarah Palin's office abused her office and fired the Alaska Public Safety Commissioner because he wouldn't fire her ex-brother in law. And the kicker ( say it with me) is that she lied about it and tried to cover it up.

Alaska Pol Andrew Halco, hardly a left-winger, discusses this aspect of Trooper Gate on his blog:

I'll tell what happened; Palin and her staff have been using their state issued Blackberrys and computers to conduct acts of personal retribution, and the attorney general is covering for them.

So why come out with this opinion now, especially in the middle of a scandal fueled by the revelations of secret communications?

According to one of my sources who tipped me off about the Bailey phone call days before it was publicly released as well as the Kopp payout days before it was publicly released; the governor is in deep snow.

Apparently there is credible evidence of Blackberry communications that Palin herself communicated with her staff and Monegan about firing Wooten.

Also, Sarah Palin is earmark happy.

Her many battlefield victories with the Alaska National Guard aside, her lack of any record of foreign policy thinking is what makes this such a reckless McCain decision. And the decision making process itself demonstrates a politically weak, fly off the cuff, ego-driven John McCain.

I'm sure she's memorizing talking points now. I'm sure she's spinning her cruel opposition to abortion even in the case of underage rape as down-home folk values. But the Republic has had quite enough of know-nothing ideologues.
