The bell appears to be tolling a day early for Sarah:
Todd Palin talked with over a dozen state officials, many of them repeatedly, in his crusade to get a state trooper fired whom he considered to be a bad cop, a dishonest person and a threat to the Palin family, according to his sworn statement given Wednesday to a legislative investigator.
Somewhere, Dick Cheney is sitting in an undisclosed location with a devious smile, and he's holding his pinky finger to the corner of his mouth and saying, "I will call him mini-me":
Todd Palin's efforts started before his wife became governor and accelerated during the first 19 months of her administration
Unfortunately, though, Cheney is probably dissapointed in the Palins' follow through. Despite the McCain/Palin ticket's impressive efforts to put the Kibosh on the investigation, a full account will be out tomorrow. That whole under oath thing is a bitch, isn't it, First Dude? No wonder your mentors in the Bush administration avoid it like the plague.
But this news does come with a silver lining for McCain/Palin: the drip, drip, drip that will inevitably precede tomorrow's findings--including the subject of this diary--will at least provide the McCain campaign with a welcome respite from the universal bashing they're receiving for their flailing campaign. Speaking of, McCain likes to brag about bringing the two parties together, and he should be proud: he has successfully unified both political parties against him!
