Palin Troopergate

Today's headline (the day before the election):

A report has cleared Gov. Sarah Palin of ethics violations in the firing of her public safety commissioner. The report, released Monday, said: "There is no probable cause to believe that the governor, or any other state official, violated the Alaska Executive Ethics Act in connection with these matters." It was prepared by Timothy Petumenos, an independent counsel for the Alaska Personnel Board.

If you don't know, the Alaska Personnel Board members are appointed by Palin.

Reminds me of the old joke about the Soviet Olympic team.

Tomorrow's headline: Among the top two candidates, McCain came in second, Obama came in second last.
