Could it be Mr IRS or funny money floating around Wasilla for building projects. She built Levi his hockey rink and then he turns evidence for the feds.</p> The feds are investigating about money issues in Wasilla, not terrorism.

These are the things that have POWER behind them, the kind of power that would destroy Palin, and account for her performance today.

I still think the GOP was driving this somehow, as she’s pretty much embarassed them as much as any of the past few years of scandals have, but she wouldn’t shut up or go away, so they nailed her.

That McCain, or Obama, was a part of it in a heads up to her? I’m not sure. That McCain’s former team was a part of it to DISTANCE themselves on it? I buy that all the way.

What ever it was, it’s got POWER behind it. And she or Toddy are gonna do time.

I’m still leaning that there WAS a deal in this for her to resign to save ONE of them from doing time.

But I STILL suspect this was GOP doings all the way, no matter WHAT the charges are going to be.

Although, if there’s domestic terrorism charges from Holder and FBI, then Obama was aware of it all along. And the admin would KNOW this was going to blow it all up big. Not sure what they gain in a pre emptive call of warning, though. The GOP needs distance, as does McCain that’s for sure.

And Obama and his team can REALLY bang the drum about GOP values, Patriot Act and how McCain and GOP screwed up on THAT one, picking a VP candidate under THAT cloud . . . anyway ya look at it, if dom terror IS the issue at hand, this sinks the GOP deeper than both the Lusitania and The Titanic.

Wow . . . mind boggling what might lay ahead of us from all this . . . . and yes, there’s the ‘WHAT IF” that it was all discovered from illegal warrentless wiretapping . . . . who wins and loses if THAT’S the case? Besides the public, that is . . .

Wouldn’t it be tragic if they got the evidence through warrantless wiretapping?
