"Scratch Sarah. One of the more tantalizing possibilities floating around for the Republican Vice Presidential slot is Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK). Adding a wildly popular, good-looking young woman to the Republican ticket would add more pop than than equally good looking but more conventional choice of Mitt Romney. But Sarah has a problem. Her sister, who is married to state trooper Mike Wooten, is in the middle of a bitter divorce and child custody battle. According to former state safety commissioner Walt Monegan, Palin pressured him to fire Wooten. When he refused, she fired him out of the blue claiming the department needed new direction. So far it is his word against hers, but until this incident, Palin had only good things to say about Monegan. Even the Republican-controlled state legislature smells a dead fish here and is planning to appoint an independent investigator. With Palin on the ticket, there was always the danger she would overshadow McCain; now it is a certainty. If McCain decides he needs a woman on the ticket, it will probably be Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-TX). Palin has her hands full surviving as governor at this point. A VP run is out of the question".
HA - HA - HA ....Another Republican scandal, :woohoo:
