- Sogladtobehere, on 10/10/2008, -2/+19Palin's aides also discussed Wooten with Monegan's successor, Chuck Kopp during pre-employment conversations. "Is there anything you can do?" an aide asked Kopp.
It was a prerequisite for Monegan's successor to fire Wooten as well!
Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely! Don't let this power-happy she-devil into the Whitehouse! - gail40, on 10/10/2008, -1/+18Sarah Palin and her Husband, Todd are a couple of thugs!
- MakiMaki, on 10/10/2008, -7/+8This story is already on digg. You should be digging the one below, which is the original NYT source... not this Huffpo summary which just points to the full story (redundant).

The digg links from Huffington all end up in the same place, which is why these "summaries" end up front paged far more often.- MakiMaki, on 10/10/2008, -3/+2Yup. That's cuz NYT doesn't have persistent URLS unlike Huffpo, each article can have up to 7 different urls... hence the huge amount of dupes. I see your point but I just don't think Huffpo deserves to get promoted at the expense of the original source, especially when the source was submitted first.

- plecostomus, on 10/10/2008, -2/+5....link to the original article unless HP has something NEW to contribute. You can write a "summary" in the lines describing the article for people that don't feel like reading the whole thing.
Also, here's the direct link to NY Times: http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/10/us/10trooper.htm ...
Also, the McCain/Palin campaign says its own investigation has cleared Palin of any wrongdoing (I am not making this up): http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5jOTk11gvqDAgD0c ...
Is it really that hard? When you post Huffington Post summaries, many people just go "HuffPo spam" and miss the story that might actually be from a hard copy news organization, or even just a YouTube video. Some of those people might also decry a paper like NY Times as "in the tank," but some are probably just annoyed with seeing the same website represent all the news content on Digg (runner-up goes to...idk...Ars Technica?). - toetagger, on 10/10/2008, -1/+3BUSTED!

If found to be true, this seems like sedition or treason. I think your little troopergate is going to look like an anthill next to this Mt. Everest. This could very well bring the Obama campaign to an abrupt end. I wonder if Hank Clinton will step in and take over the ticket. - Carnivale, on 10/10/2008, -0/+1At least we can say she's persistent.
