She is not even in office yet, and there is already scandle in her office. Her and her husbands charaters need to be questioned. What do we know about them. For that matter what does McCain know about them. We still need to support Ron Paul with his side by side convention in Minn.

Does McCain truly believe he will get any Hillary voters by parading this woman?? He truly thinks we are stupid and voting for gender. The guy needs help and she ain't it but I'll take it to make sure he doesn't get into office. Good Work MCCain

Abuse of Power investigation is not isolated.

When the Alaska Creamery Board recommended closing Matanuska Maid Dairy, an unprofitable state-owned business, Palin objected, citing concern for the impact on dairy farmers and the fact that the dairy had just received $600,000 in state money. When Palin learned that only the Board of Agriculture and Conservation could appoint Creamery Board members, she simply replaced the entire membership of the Board of Agriculture and Conservation. The new board, led by businesswoman Kristan Cole, reversed the decision to close the dairy. The new board approved milk price increases offered by the dairy in an attempt to control fiscal losses, even though milk from Washington was already offered in Alaskan stores at lower prices. In the end, the dairy was forced to close, and the state tried to sell the assets to pay off its debts but received no bids.
