Sarah Palin to Resign. Indictment Forthcoming?

The Editor's Column
Posted by WhosPlayin on 2009/7/3 15:00:00 (635 reads)

Sarah Palin announced today that she will be stepping down this month as Governor of Alaska, prompting some speculation about her motivations for doing so.

Update: BradBlog is reporting that several sources in Alaska are pointing to a possible indictment on embezzlement charges:

One logical place to start looking is the affair that has Alaska political circles buzzing: an alleged scandal centered around a building contractor, Spenard Building Supplies, with close ties to Palin and her husband, Todd.

Many political observers in Alaska are fixated on rumors that federal investigators have been seizing paperwork from SBS in recent months, searching for evidence that Palin and her husband Todd steered lucrative contracts to the well-connected company in exchange for gifts like the construction of their home on pristine Lake Lucille in 2002.


It is important to note that there is no mainstream media mention of this yet, and no federal corroboration of the story. Even if it were true, an indictment is not a presumption of guilt.

What do you think? Take the poll below and let us know:

 Republican viewpoint on Palin
Conservative take, from Human Events:
Quote:
Palin gives a tremendous political boost to the conservative who is her political teammate and soul-mate, Lieutenant Governor Sean Parnell.

...

With her not running, the scenario of battles royals among Democrats and Republicans will come true. But with her resigning, Parnell (who will be sworn in later this month) gets a big edge toward winning the Republican nomination.
