Palin caught in bigfoot hoax

Well, no not really. But it wouldn't surprise me if she was found out to have possibly faked the moon landing, was on the grassy knoll, shot JR, controls hurricanes with her weather machine, and all that nonsense. There is literally too much new scandal information coming out each day to keep up with. She makes Bush look like an amateur.

Yesterday it was the pregnant underage daughter, husband with a DUI, Palin ran fundraising for indicted Senator Ted "Hulkster" Stevens PAC, was almost recalled as mayor for firing a police chief and library director that didn't support her re-election campaign, backed the bridge to nowhere, and called Iraq a war for oil. In the McCain camps defense, the pregnant daughter thing probably shaded the other stuff.

Today is still early and we've already learned that she was a member of the Alaskan Independence Party, a group which wanted Alaska to secede from the US. This meshes quite well with McCain's slogan of "49/50th's of America First". Senator Eagleton Governor Palin also lawyered up for the ethics investigation she's currently under and it turns out she hired a lobbying firm to lobby for government earmarks, contrary to campaign claims that she's some budget cutting reformer who stands up to wasteful government spending.

Speculation is heating up whether she'll actually get dropped from the campaign before she even gets nominated. Democrats, meanwhile, are trying not to die of laughter. They haven't even had to attack her yet, as the sheer weight of the revelations the McCain camp had no idea about come to light every day. If she makes it to tomorrow, I can't wait to see the speech.
