It just shows what kind of VP she would be, she is vindictive, not a maverick

Absolutely. This shows how Sarah Palin governs. It doesn't matter if its ethical, only if it suits her professional OR personal needs.

She is as corrupt as they come, she abuses her powers, hires her cronys, & if you disagree with her she will ruin you, sound familiar? BUSH

Just more proof that she is more of the same - exactly the same kind of VP that Cheney has been, I'm kind of tired of it myself.

    When you run on transperency, reform, outsder, non-Washington platforms, you better be able to back it up. She does not.

    In two respects. 1. Enough facts to support the allegations. 2. Her failure to follow through with her promise to cooperate with inquiry

    Any "gate" seems to have a damaging reaction to any politician but Palin doesn't have the national recognition to overcome it

    Although some damage is already done, this calls into question her truthfulness, making her claims against Obama even less credible.

    She ABUSED HER POWER. Whether she broke the law is irrelevant. What IS relevant is Palin's character. She is unethical and wunworthy.

    She abused her power & violated ethics laws. In what world does that not damage on'e reputation? Todd's role in this is most disturbing!

    "Sinister" Sarah is GUILTY of abuse of power, just like her running mate. We can't trust her ever with power as she will violate our trust!

    Not only does it show she has poor judgment in terms of her own abuse of the office, it also brings to light her husband's undue influence.

    But what reputation? I still don't understand how so many have gone haywire over her when we still don't know who she really is.
