Palin Iceberg Scandal

In the wake of Governor Palin stepping down from her job, new allegations have surfaced today in Alaska charging Palin with additional violations of the Alaska Executive Ethics Act.

Palin expects no one to wonder why in the world she would step down from the governorship, which is the only platform from which she can claim any political legitimacy. And we're not supposed to speculate? Come now.

For weeks, the rumors of a criminal investigation against the governor have been brewing. They are rumors, but are swirling fresh again with Palin's resignation.

Some pundits have said that Palin's resignation is out of character. Hardly. Don't forget that she resigned from her last statewide office. Sarah Palin is a quitter.
