CNN

It will always amaze me how the republicans will never admit to doing anything wrong, even after being caught and convicted. Just excuse after excuse, and blaming everyone but the one that did wrong. You guys would never allow that sort of crap from your kids – why do you tolerate it in your politicians? Ted Stevens didn't get into trouble becasue the media was mean to him. You republicans sound like my father after Nixon got in trouble: "The only thing he did wrong was to get caught."

Sarah must be a little nervous that she will be next in line for criminal charges! Hopefully Alaskans will give them both the boot.

Yes, wondering when charges are going to be taken
for Palin having her house built for free by AIP! Im waiting!! She
is not to be trusted!

DIVA , Hey the alsaka newspaper said this
"Alaska's Anchorage Daily News, said governor Mrs Palin was "too risky" to be one step away from the presidency."

What was McCain thinking was he using is big head or the small head

Palin, whose own ethical behavior while in office is under scrutiny, needs to reflect on the sadness of her own life and actions.

The Republicans talk about conservative and family values and Christians values But have the biggest CORRUPTION AND LIES among them. This is a promble people we can'nt vote in another Republican look at the results corruptions, lies and failed poliicies BushMccain/Palin say NO

Stevens and Palin worked closely together. She has also been corrupt which is now becoming more and more evident on a daily basis. In the meantime, she has been fueling rallies with hateful comments, and now 2 men have been arrested in a plot to kill over 100 black Americans, including Sen. Obama.

What is wrong with this picture????

Politicians without accountability – steal OUR liberties.

AGAIN the call goes out: "Give me liberty – or give me death"

Palin you are next..........

She did speak about herself when she mentioned how corruption influences people UP THERE in Alaska. Was Palin not a benefactor of this corruption, go figure.

IF I WAS FOUND GUILTY 7 TIMES, WHAT WILL HAPPY TO ME STEVENS WILL GET A SLAP ON HIS WRIST AND HE WILL GET RE-ELECTED THE REPUBLICANS ALWAYS TRY AND GET THEIR WAY BUT NOT THIS TIME I AM GOING BLUE ALL THE WAY DOWN THE BALLOT IF MICKEY MOUSE NAME IS ON THE BALLOT AND HE IS A DEMOCRAT THEN HE WILL GET MY VOTE SENATE OF DISNEY WORLD. I CAN"T WAIT TO VOTE FOR OBAMA

i find the continued use of the tem "off the reservation" by CNN very offensive

What exactly are they teaching up there in Alaska?

Obsms/Biden '08!

Wonder what skeletons would come out if they should start investigating Palin? For started, there's that pesky ethics violation thing which has somehow been beaten down in the din of the final weeks of the campaign.

I would like to thank Sarah Palin, as Governor of Alaska, for having awarded the $40B natural gas pipeline contract to TransCanada.

Its good that Alaska is outsourcing jobs to Canada.

I respect the judicial system of Alaska
Both senator and governor abused power and have ethical problems and they were caught guilty

Is abuse of power a criminal offense?

I wonder if she will be quilty in her case also. Remember her lumber for her house was part of the arena built in Alaska.

Given the recent findings regarding Palin with Troopergate and Stevens with finances, it seems Alaska has it's own unique standards for the ethics of elected officials.

Hey Miss Maverick, he is a criminal. Broke the law. Get it? If it is a sad day for him and his family, maybe he can retreat to his posh retreat built on corruption.

By the way, how is that secession coming? Still supporting those folks whose hatred of the American gov't exceeds the icy cold of Glacier Bay?

The GOP lives in a house without mirrors.

It's all about Alaska.....

The heat gets a little closer to the Princess herself now; she didn't fight the culture of corruption with big oil in Alaska, she turned the trough in her direction - that natural gas pipeline deal is very shady indeed. So are her contacts with her husband's employer. Not to mention the Wasilla athletic complex scandal. She is a little less gruff than Stevens, but no less corrupt.

Of course, Palin's two years as governor have done nothing to stop this. Oh well.

Palin's own face is a sad sight for not only Alaska, but the United States as a whole.

To the people in Alaska will you now vote for Barack Obama? You have a ridiculous Governor and a crazy old fool for a Senator who is on his way to jail. Will you please do the right thing?

If Gov. Palin's such a maverick, when asked if she would vote for Stevens, she should have said emphatically "No, I have always fought against corruption in my own state and my own party." Her silence says much. Congratulations, Gov. Palin, you are now officially a Washington insider.

NO! It was a sad day when mccain picked someone that ABUSED HER POWER!! We know now she gets her ethics from stevens.

I truly hope that Obama/Biden reopen the investigation of Palin's troopergate scandal when the get into office. Perhaps that's why they've been downplaying the findings of Palin's unethical abuse of power as Alaska governor since those findings came to light.

when a common crook is convicted for stealing, does gov. palin think to herself "it is a sad day for him and his family."? probably not . . . so why treat sen. stevens any different?
this man stands for everything gov. palin espouses to be against – the typical corrupt washington insider who loves earmarks. yet gov. palin was a director of his PAC and will still likely vote for him.
what a hypocrite.

Oh, puleeze...

Isn't the next move to bring similar charges against Palin? I mean, she DID get her PERSONAL HOME built by the same company she awarded that Wasilla Sports Center contract to... I'm just saying...

She's as corrupt as Stevens.

Too funny....

"Palin did not respond when asked if she will vote for Sen. Stevens and promptly boarded the campaign plane."

In some ways shes amazingly cute, like a 3 year old who runs away when he/she knows shes done something wrong but here mommy/daddy coming.

Send them both home packing....She (Palin) was voted to fight the big cats but as they say...Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely...so Palin became one of them and abused her powers!

Enough Said...She should be fired and sent home packing.
Hasta La Vista Baby!!!

Sad he got caught.
Sad he was found guilty.
Sad he most likely won't get re-elected.

It seems that the largest export of Alaska is bribery,Treason and sedition.Surely these shills for McSame/Failin,understand that secession is treason.The Republic of Texas nuts tried this some years back,and guess what?They ALL went to jail.It seems that ignorance trumps understanding in the party of hate.The only regret I have is some truly nice Republicans are being dragged down to the Neandrethal level of the party loyalists.By the way,with 7 million surveiance cameras at the Pentagon,can anyone explain how we missed the picture af a rather large aircraft impacting.I guess they were all off for King George II and his lost seven minutes.

After her and McCain's crushing loss next week, she's next. One more seat for the Dems to grab.

It seems like the politics in Alaska runs to the beat of a different drummer. Governor Palin says she will now carefully monitor the situation. Money seems to be miss handled by Alaska's government.

We don't need that type of judgement as a Vice President as a 'learn as you go' style. We need a right from Day One judgement that Obama and Biden will bring to the table.

America has just gone through 8 years of bad judgement with Bush and Cheney. McCain's judgement for one is he picked Palin as his VP choice.

Vote for the real change candidates November 4th. – Obama/Biden

Wow! She threw the guy under the bus. How sad is that! I hope he also turns on her. John McCain better watch out. Soon, she will turn on him, if that hasn't already been happening.

CNN, please post this.

Of Course she'll vote for Stevens. Does anybody doubt that? Since when would breaking a law, or violating ethics (oh, hi there, Sarah) get in the way of a Republican running for office?

One down, one to go. Sarah Palin...lets not forget your dealings with stevens. so please coorporate with the feds if you are approached about your dealings with stevens..in alaska. I am pretty sure everyone has skeletons in their closet

What? No 'Sen Stevens is completely exonerated' statement like she gave after the police firing report said she was in violation of state ethics laws?

Yea Right!

Palin's name is listed on 2003 incorporation papers of the "Ted Stevens Excellence in Public Service, Inc.," a 527 group that could raise unlimited funds from corporate donors. The group was designed to serve as a political boot camp for Republican women in the state. She served as one of three directors until June 2005, when her name was replaced on state filings.

For Complete Article see:
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/the-trail/2008/09/01/palin_was_a_director_of_embatt.html

The latest polls have strong news for Obama, who jumps to big leads in Virginia and Ohio (full roundup here).

on the tarmac at Richmond International Airport. "The verdict shines a light on the corrupting influence of the big oil service company up there in Alaska that was allowed to control too much of our state. '
Believe me I know all about corrupt politicians!

Pathetic – she'll still vote for him. Way to be a Maverick. What a pile of BS.

I guess Palin is now shaking because the long arm of the federal government may be coming for her too. I betcha the Republicans are doomed for life!!! Which ever person cast the spell on you is worth a pat on the back. You had blind folded us enough and this time round we have got you were we wanted you!!!!

This is how she treats a Senator who supported her bid for Governor?!

Now, she is Miss clean hands. This "RACIST" needs to go back to where she came from!!!

She gave a fair response but it won't be seen as such by the loony left.

So you will be voting for Sen. Stevens?

What happened to "Country before Party"? Was that just a sham you and McCain perpetuated on the American voters to get you into office?

I cannot understand how anyone thinks Palin could be the standard bearer for the Republicans in 2012. I think she will be out in the cold way before that.

Stand by your man, baby!

Jewish Republican for Obama October 27th, 2008 6:09 pm ET

Governor, this is the first time since I've been following your career that you've given me a reason to respect you.

-------------------------------

I 100% agree with this person!

Sarah Palin and John McCain should be in jail. They are directly responsible if any thing happens to Barack. We heard about one plot today. No doubt there are others. McCain and Palin are co-conspirators.

PALIN IS NEXT.....

ummm.. Well.. I have to say.. not suprised. We could say another Republican bites the dust.. or another politician bites the dust for that matter.. There are just as many Dems as Repugs getting busted.. it seems..
Voting for Change in Seattle.. Lets not make this a race thing.. I live IN Atlanta.. we have had african american leadership for years and we are in HORRIBLE shape.. so I don't think Race has anything to do with it.. the only change I see coming is more money from my hand to more people who don't work.. don't want to work and think they are entitled to it from the Gov't for some insane reason.

Hey Sarah, how about punishing the Alaskan governor who abused her authority on a personal vendetta which resulted in her breaking Alaska State Ethics Laws. That was a sad day for Alaska too.

Why has no one covered the story about Palin and her house? Supposedly Todd had some "contractor buddies" help him build it. Conveniently right down the road the big hockey rink was being built at the same time with the same "contractor buddies". During that time she,as mayor, made it so that building permits weren't required. Also very convenient was the fact that Palin and the hockey rink had the same building materials supplier. She's a crook people.

She's worse than Stevens ever thought about being.

One more democratic seat, the filibuster proof 60 is within sight. By the was governor how did your deposition go on Friday are you in for an October/November surprise? Could your indictment before the election be next?

I am sure she is Happy, since she would have done it too. Any questions on what is coming out of Alaska?

Amazing, not only has Palin destroyed McCain’s bid for the Presidency but also she now threatens to destroy the Republican Party. Had she clearly disavowed Stevens’ actions, like Obama did regarding the Rev. Wright, it would have shown some integrity. Calling her a ‘diva’ is just too kind.

just a couple weeks ago, this woman was found guilty of ABUSING THE POWERS OF HER OFFICE!

typical of alaska politicians and the republiklans party led by George Bush and John Mcsame!

TIME FOR CHANGE IS NOW – VOTE EARLY – VOTE BARACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Abuse of power and ethics law violations (declared by a Republican-dominated legislative commission), pregnant high-school dropout daughter and hooligan boyfriend, constant double-speak, questionable per diem charges, questionable child travel charges, inability to name one news periodical she has read, no understanding of the Bush Doctrine, says “Maverick” too much, flirts and winks instead of appearing Presidential, doesn't know Russians don't cross her airspace, claims Mayorial experience of a town with fewer than 8,000 people strengthens Presidential qualifications. The woman is a loon.

Sarah Palin is next. She abuse power and will be sentence sooner than later.......Thanks but no thanks

end of GOP

Palin priobably hopes that Stevens wins the election and then resigns, so that as governor she'll be able to appoint his replacement.

Hello to you all from across the Atlantic,

What amazes me the most is not that he's corrupt – he's a 20+ year veteran politician after all – it's that anyone would consider voting for an 84 yr old man to represent them.

Surely his values can't be the same as 80% of the population. Vote him out and let him spend some time watching re-runs of Matlock.

Sarah Palin's signature accomplishment a contract to build a 1,715-mile pipeline to bring natural gas from Alaska to the Lower 48 — emerged from a flawed bidding process that narrowed the field to a company with ties to her administration, an AP investigation shows.Corruption?

How can she say anything, she should go and hide under the mud she slings before people focus back on her being found unethical and she is still under investication for the firing of her brother-in -law.
Her own newspaper endorse Obama. Sarah you are an embearsment to our great UNITED STATES.
So go home and join the rest of the negative where you say you hace executive experience.
We will all thank you

Maybe Stevens and Palin can share a jail cell.

Gov. Palin didn't you abuse your power too??????

Corruption junction Alaska, aye?

NICE OF HER TO SAY THIS AS SHE RAN HIS POLITICAL ACTION COMMITTEE. HE SHOULD RESIGN IMMEDIATELY FROM THE SENATE. WHAT A DISGRACE

She says it's a "sad day" up there in Alaska. Is she implying that Alaska likes crooks and wants them representing the people of Alaska? I think we just saw some real insight into Ms. Palin. Crooks are ok, as long as they are Our crooks. Or maybe she's thinking ahead about her own trial which is looming in the future.

A "sad" day, it should be a happy day, up there in Alaska to also to see. (Palinese)

Sen. Ted Stevens is just the victim of political fighting.

If compared to the guilty verdict for Detroit Mayor, Senator Stevens' guilty is nothing......

Please! Palin worked for Stevens. She's even worse than he is.

What action exactly?? He's not her employee for pete's sake. He's a Senator – she can't fire him!

Another alaskan joke...Go home Sarah...America is not buying your nonsense....

The problem with corruption in Alaska is the Republican party. What does it take to get 600,000 plus people to wake up? They elected Palin didn't they? Hmmm.

You are next

Senator Palin today introduced Senator Stevens to the underside of the bus of her ambition, where he joined Senator McCain.

Yes, Sarah, tell us all about how the evil 'BIG OIL' caused all of those problems in your state. Then tell us how you are going to keep fighting to keep them in check. Oh, and somewhere along the line, how about telling us how they were YOUR MAJOR CAMPAIGN SUPPORTERS?!?!

Geez, the hypocrisy runs a lot deeper in Alaska than it does in the rest of the country!

Hey Palin!

I thought you had a handle on the big oil companies and corruption! Well, it happened right in your back yard, with BIG OIL COMPANIES!!

Hmmmmmmm......fit to be VP? NO

Fit to be Governor? NO!!

SARAH PALIN -The verdict shines a light on the corrupting influence of the big oil service company up there in Alaska that was allowed to control too much of our state.............Why then do people of alaska collect $3000 + from the oil companies?

2 peas

1 pod

Palin: "that control was part of the culture of corruption that I was elected to fight,"

but wait, Gov Palin, weren't you found guilty of violating ethics and abusing powers????

please do help me understand, governor.

Did Sarah just throw Ted under the bus?

HMMMMMMMM. He's found guilty and she was found to have abused her powers. Maverick? Please.

she has been pallin' around with convicted felons ....bitter medicine

You tell'em, Palin! You role model of non-abuse of Power, you. You're so right to react, you maverick of mavericks. We all respect you, your Maverickiness!

Palin (first DUDE) buddies around with felons. Didn’t McCain tell the REAL American voters to WAIT until the 4th to VOTE? Right after HE said “I got Obama right were I WANT him, I LIKE being the UNDER DOG!!” Did he forget to INCLUDE Palin in on his comments before she be ginned her OWN campaign for 2012?

Obama/Biden 08

I am seriously praying in eight days I NEVER have to hear or see this woman again. America definitely has low standards if the McCain/Palin ticket is chosen. McCain: a man who willfully left his crippled wife for money, Cindy: a woman who steals drugs and fathers from their children, Bristol Palin: a knocked up teenager who's(waiting for her baby's daddy), Sarah: a reckless mother and abusive politician whose not fit for anything and Todd Palin: or as they refer to him "first dude" Trash. All of them trash. They all should get out of the public eye and stay out!

Oh my, what a beautiful written reaction by Palin on the news. Must have been written by one of McCains really good writers! I promise she didn"t come up with that reaction by herself. And they were very careful that she didn't react in person but by a written response!!! Go figure. Sorry but I don't believe anything I hear or see from the Republican Party anymore.

Obama/Biden '08

Palin just likes to pal around with her felonious friends!! I think we should investigate her relationship with Senator Stevens. Felons aren't very pro-american.

Even in corruption, politicians have a tradition and lineage.

Wish she would respect other checks&balances such as the investigation about herself...

I wonder how close the governor really is to the companies who provided the house work and other gifts. What do they say "the apple doesn't fall far from the tree". Good luck trying to spin this repubs.

One corrupt Republican down and another(Palin) to go.

hahahahaha

of course palin...you were hired to fight that corruption.
the same corruption that you used to build your house, your hockey ring, the same corruption you used to pay for your kids's plane tickets and stay home nights.

go back to your never to be heard again house.
you are not welcome in the lower 49 states.

we don't want to hear your name ever again as long as there is a united states of america on this great world.

I think the Governor of a state replaces a U.S. Senator by appointment if the Senator in question needs to step-down. So if Ted Stevens gets re-elected, he will be forced to step down due to felony charges, which means Sarah will replace him with a Republican of her choosing. Scary thought – so get smart Alaska! Vote Dem!

I don't know who Sarah Palin is to make a comment on Ted Stevens
anyway....wasn't she just found guilty of abuse of power herself!!!!
It seems to me that up there in Alaska corruption runs rampant....Sarah Palin obviously does not see herself as a law breaker!!!!!!
I don't know how she can go out in the public and keep talking about anybody and their values and policies when she has none of her own....this lady is from another planet.....unbelievable...really unbelievable!!!!
I think we are all ready to see the back of the McCain Campaign, it has been long and vicious and needs to come to and end.....McCain
has no honor and credibility left.

all from the governor who abused her power as governor of the great state of alaska.

Why is the comment by Todd Palin that the Palin 1/2 million dollar house 'was built by contractor buddies' is not being vetted?
When you are coGovernor of a State and their is a sportsplex being built down the road, i guess it's not hard to have 'contractor buddies'.

Pure vanilla, straight off the cocktail napkin talking point.

So much for her earmark gravy train...

Ha ha ... so "Palin did not respond when asked if she will vote for Sen. Stevens and promptly boarded the campaign plane."

She is probably thinking about whether she can appoint herself as the new Senator for the next few weeks - might actually learn something about government ... scary thought - and will give her somewhere to wear her new clothers

Deep. She asks that Alaskans to "join me (her) in respecting the workings of our judicial system and I'm confident that Senator Stevens from this point on will do the right thing for the people of Alaska,"; kind of like how she and her husband respected the process of the investigation into her ABUSE OF POWER? Refusing subpoenas, fighting before giving documents and depositions? She is HARDLY the one to preach the higher ground in this scenario. I wonder if she has booked her tickets back home to Alaska for next Tuesday night? She isn't going anywhere but home!
OBAMA/BIDEN '08 & '12 YES WE CAN!

These CEO of big oil Companies are the ones McCain and Palin are fighting for; they all recieve this 'back door' gifts from the big CEO and oil companies....Now Americans can now see why John McCain and Sarah Palin have been criticising Obama for his willingness to tax them (CEOs).

I'm surprised she didn't come out and say "See, as I said and now it's proof, Senator Stevens is completely innocent of all wrongdoing, just like me."

Unbelievable that she would make those statements about respecting the judicial system out of one side of her mouth.. while the other one is telling people to ignore subpoenas issued regarding her own case.

PALIN ............NEXT..........ABUSE OF POWER & ETHICS VIOLATIONS!

Watch...just as Slick Willy pardoned his brother, and Ford pardoned Nixon, W. as a parting middle finger to the country will pardon Stevens, Libby, Palin, and every other Republican criminal we've come to know in the last 8 years.

If she wants to be seen as a reformer, she needs to take more of a firm stand against Stevens. Her statement undermines her position on ethics, one of the few issues she claims to know something about.

I guess she thinks it's a sad day in Alaska was when their biggest newspaper company, The Ankorage Daily News, endorsed Obama also!! LOL

Alaska deserves better. Voters, get ready for November 4 for a corruption sweep. Sweep out the trash.

So - is Palin conceding the presidential race or just saying she is going to start paying attention to Alaska's needs now?

As we say in the lower 48... batter up. Watch for those pesky curve balls Palin.

7 and a wake up... the Veterans know what that means : -)

Dog-gonnit Sarah! YOU'RE NEXT!!! Yeah buddy!

A sad day? It's only sad for you because you how closely linked to two of you are. It gets worse and worse for the GOP.

Thats right in 8 days you will be going back to Alaska to work on that and not VP. Thank god.

Am speechless, this is real sad. So what's really going on there!

YOU SUPPORTED TED STEVENS FOR RE-ELECTION, SARAH.

Bye Bye, Sarah!

Why not go back to Alaska NOW?????

Will Palin vote for Stevens??? Was Ronald Reagan a B-Lister Movie Star????

Of course she'll vote for him; she'll need funds when she runs for President in 2012.

Yo' half-wit, your speaking in incomprehensible phrases again.

You had nothing to do with "cleaning" up this corruption. In fact, you learned at Steven's knee, or was that on your knees?

America will just add this to the list of Larry Craig who we now know was tap dancing out Broadway show tunes in the stall next to the cute young cop.

Of course she's going to vote for him. While she may say that she is a reformer and a maverick (chug, chug), she is of the same cronyistic, power-drunk, power-abusing mold Dick Cheney and W. were cut from.

Must be something in the water...

check out the history, sen. stevens has brought millions of dollars to

his state, as do any other senators trying to help their states. people

should focus on the work and help the senators did for their states,

instead of personal issues that people dont need to pay attention to,

let the senators take care of their own faults. corruption has always

been in politics for decades, even in the democratic side.

I dont believe her.

Do you want to know what the "PNAC" is? The Project of a New American Century is a chilling group of extremists with a world agenda for WAR. John McCain co-founded this group. If you love your children and do not want to see them go to war in Iran, Iraq, Syria, Georgia, or anywhere else please research John McCain's extremist back ground.

ho hum

she didn't respond when asked if she'll be voting for him??? Isn't that no brainer????

Oh, wait. I think I just answered my own question!

So, is abuse of power and corruption an Alaskan Culture thing?

Because she's going to vote for him LOL.

Is Alaska going blue this election? Two corrupt officials and a major newspaper endorsement! That would be awesome.

OBAMA-BIDEN 08
FOR THE CHANGE WE NEED

"I'm confident that Senator Stevens from this point on will do the right thing for the people of Alaska" Sure because she was so honorable when it was found out she abused her own power. This woman is a sad joke

"I ask the people of Alaska to join me in respecting the workings of our judicial system"

Didn't she try to hide from our judicial system when it called upon her?

How about you missy .... you are next.

It takes one to know one. I feel bad for alaska they seem to have alot of bad politicans in there state..... They should turn blue and forget Palin ,shes just making them look bad. they both are

This is how she treats a Senator who supported her bid for Governor?!

Now, she is Miss clean hands. This RACIST needs to go back where she came from!!!

Please CNN expect my comment! Please please please!! Thank you!

Well, well well WHAT A SHOCKER yet another REPBUBLICAN in the news for corruption and scandal. Stealing, lying, cheating, oh and OIL company SOUND familiar?? Oh and what makes it even better is Palin is from that state! Hmmmm Make you wonder? If not it really, really should.
As I sit here and read comments from some of you people it baffles me that YOU PEOPLE still want to vote for McCain and Palin. You have ALL got to be out of your mind. I am really serious! I read your comments and it makes me sick to my stomach. Most of the Republicans that I have spoke to only STATE the lies that they hear, (they probably mostly hear from church). Please for good sakes if you haven’t voted yet, please read some FACTS first. And for you racist people, please get a life, stop being ignorant, don’t vote for the WHITE man just because he is WHITE. Because it’s been the WHITE people, and the republicans that I see that has us in this messed up state that we find ourselves in today. For you people that keep saying CNN is bias LOL. Try watching Fox News and then let me hear you say that. CNN isn’t bias they are just smart. The people that are actually voting for Obama, we aren’t ignorant or getting played, or fooled, WE ARE SMART! Please please realize the difference. We have let the repubublicans run this country far, far too long. Its time we let the Democrats in so we can actually do the job right, and start fixing this country. I work for the GOVT yep, that’s right I do. I actually work for the VA and trust me the Republican Party hasn’t done anything to help our VETS. I know first hand. So it makes me laugh that only reason that some of you want to vote for Mccain is because he was POW, are you kidding me? He is rich now, he doesn’t care about you VETS anymore; Obama actually has a plan for the VA. Does McCain your chum, buddy, Conrad?? NO NO!!. Don’t get me wrong I DO appreciate and respect McCain for fighting for our country, just like I appreciate and respect everyone of our patients. But trust me I wouldn’t elect any of our patients I have seen suffering from PTSD to be in charged of AMERICAS # 1 job.
Wake up people please!! You need to actually read the facts, and listen, listen, listen.

WE NEED CHANGE! CHANGE! CHANGE! CHANGE! CHANGE!

~Obama 2008 and 2012~

So I guess she is going to monitor herself? Right! She knows that her butt in on the chopping block next. Be glad when Obama wins and she goes home and take her punishment.

ahh...so you and your fellow prisoner....err, I mean alaskan politician have a lot in common. Both found guilty of corruption. Seems they grow them illegal out there!

What a fricking felon this lady is! She is the most dispicable person in the history of american politics, with the exception of McCain.

Now she thinks he will do the right thing?! Hes the longest sitting Sen. in HISTORY!!!

To long too late.

No it is not Sarah... It's blessing on real Alaskan's like you... Keep your Chin up Girl.. There's a better world to look forward to...

so they both have been found guilty of ethics violations.

It's too late Sarah, you're next...abuse of power, did u forget...

Sarah, you're next!

HEY OBAMA SUPPORTERS,

I REALIZE NOTHING ANYONE SAYS IS GOING TO CHANGE YOUR MINDS ABOUT OBAMA BUT DOES IT BOTHER YOU AT ALL THAT THIS MAN HAS SO MANY SKELETONS IN HIS CLOSET.

HOW CAN YOU TRUST OBAMA.

I GUEST THE OBAMA SUPPORTERS THINK ALL THIS INFORMATION IS FALSE.

WOW TALK ABOUT FANTASY LAND!!!!!!!!!!!!

more to come from Alaska regarding ethics, judgement, etc... methinks. Is this just the prologue?

Governor, this is the first time since I've been following your career that you've given me a reason to respect you.

Wow so much irony in Palin's comments. First how can she mention fighting corruption with a straight face after she has been found guilty of abusing her power? Also, how can she talk about respecting the judicial system when her campaign did everything in their power to shut down Troopergate? Give me a break! Stevens and Palin are cut from the same corrupt cloth!

Maverick!....
.... Maverick!

.... Maverick!

Magic 60 here we come!

Im sure she's sad for him, cause she's about to go thru the same process and will loose her titles. 1 Alaskan official found guilty and soon to be punished for abuse of power. 1 more to go [looks at Palin]

the alaska will be more sad for palin's abusing power .. no question..

SURE I am a MAVERICK.....Who was the EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR of his PAC.

But thats a whole nother story!

"Palin did not respond when asked if she will vote for Sen. Stevens and promptly boarded the campaign plane."

I'll take that as a yes! She is a maverick, just like all the others in Washington. Keep it up Falin, making Obama look better every minute.

sad day for alaska their senator and their governor are both corrupt!!!!!

SAD DAY... gimme a break... !!! He is CORRUPT!!! simple...

yup, oh sarah, you're next on the list after the election....you betcha!

" I will carefully now monitor the situation and I'll take any appropriate action as needed. In the meantime"

.....why wasn't she already doing this? this woman is a sham

Of course she will vote for Stevens.

She has mastered, like most politicians, talking out of both sides of her mouth.

I wonder which of her "handlers" had to explain this verdict to her. I wonder too, if she got a new outfit bought for her after the verdict.

Hahahahaha! She really thinks he will win! Yeah, Ted Stevens will win a Senate seat this year, just like McCain-Palin will win the Presidency.

So when is Sarah going to be facing charges after the 2 guys in the AIP built her house?

her conviction will be a great day for America
