Re: Beginning of the end for Palin?

So Palin's "record" in Wasilla and Juneau consists entirely of a link to an extremely deceptive AP article about the so-called Troopergate investigation, an article that tries to create evidence of what? - that the Palin family had concerns about a rogue trooper who had threatened to kill one of them and committed various other acts of misconduct?

And somehow that article manages to quote the trooper's denials of the threat without ever mentioning that he had, in fact, been disciplined for making them? And somehow that very lengthy article manages to avoid mentioning a key piece of information:

The Democratic state senator in charge of this so-called "investigation," Hollis French, is a key figure of the Obama campaign in Alaska, who had already "convicted" Palin before the investigation had barely gotten started.

And while evil motives and deception are clearly implied as the reason for Palin's not turning over emails to French, no sinister motive is ascribed to the fired Police Commissioner for refusing to turn over his emails from the Governor's office. The guy knows exactly why he was fired - he was going behind her back to contradict her instructions on budget matters. She was his boss and he was being insubordinate.

Let's face it, the "investigative report" that is supposed to reveal Palin's record is just one more in the long list of Obama campaign spin articles being produced by the AP this year. A once respected news source has abandoned all effort at objectivity, and the result is simply propaganda.
