Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
Sarah Palin's powerful "First Dude" Todd Palin has exerted unusual influence on his wife's Alaska government. In Washington, their methods would do Bush and Cheney proud.
  • And he's indicted.

    Currently. As we speak.

    Sarah "Barracuda" (as the Governor and the GOP like to style her) is currently refusing to talk to investigators about the events surrounding "Troopergate." An investigator hired by her own state legislature and law-makers.

    I'm a fan of this forget Palin, go after McCain strategy. But my bet still remains: I'm offering even odds that Governor Palin is indicted and pulled from the GOP ticket before this thing goes to November.

    It's not easy to attack an investigation by your own state legislature, which is overwhelmingly Republican, as partisan. It's even harder to serve in any office from jail.

    If there's a realistic chance (which I think there will be) either or both Palins is going to jail, it's gonna be awfully hard to keep the good Governor on the ticket.
