"Squeeky Clean" except for the baggage from trying to have her brother-in-law fired as a State Trooper because her sister wanted a divorce.

That sounds like the action of a rational, responsible political candidate. It's a good thing she vowed to improve political ethics in Alaska.


Also, the "executive experience" argument is rather weak. It would be one thing if she had 10 years as a Governor, pulled the state out of a financial crisis and improved the state to Top 10 in the country for education. She was elected in 2006. We might as well make Deval Patrick President. He has more executive experience than Obama and Biden combined.

I think the Dems were a little antsy and wanted something quick to jump on. If you read other articles on the subject she asks that one check the facts of the case and she stands "Accountable" for her part in the matter.

Executive experience argument

It's a weak argument. If you go with that argument then she is more qualified to be President than John McCain.
It is a gamble by McCain and a clever one at that . Takes the attention away from Obama, now the election is about Palin. Interesting stuff , you can't make it up , this election is going to be interesting. FishHawk

McCain up in the polls. Obama coming unglued. CNN, MSNBC trying to somehow, someway get the goods on Palin. McCain's picking Palin, brilliant. Obama's pick, not so brilliant
