Here is some hope!-g- ============ pamshouseblend.com John McCain's campaign threatened legal action against the National Enquirer today for running a story about McCain's running mate, Sarah Palin, allegedly having an affair with her husband's business partner. "The smearing of the Palin family must end. The allegations contained on the cover of the National Enquirer insinuating that Gov. Palin had an extramarital affair are categorically false. It is a vicious lie," said McCain senior adviser Steve Schmidt. In fact the NE responded to the McCain camp's hypocrisy (you'll recall that the Republcians were happily panty-sniffing over the Edwards scandal): "The National Enquirer's coverage of a vicious war within Sarah Palin's extended family includes several newsworthy revelations, including the resulting incredible charge of an affair plus details of family strife when the Governor's daughter revealed her pregnancy. Following our John Edwards' exclusives, our political reporting has obviously proven to be more detail-oriented than the McCain campaign's vetting process. Despite the McCain camp's attempts to control press coverage they find unfavorable, The Enquirer will continue to pursue news on both sides of the political spectrum." Ouch. The latest bit of news about this is that Todd Palin's former business partner filed an emergency appeal to have his divorce records sealed. Oops -- it looks like the appeal was denied. Jesus, Jack Ryan Obama's opponent in 2004 imploded when a judge refused Ryan's request to keep his divorce records secret. Ryan claimed he wanted to protect his special needs son. Ryan's ex, Hollywood actress Jeri Ryan (7 of 9 on StarTrek) testified in the divorce he took her to sex clubs in New Orleans, New York, and Paris and tried to get her to felate him in public. When they published the records he weakly claimed he was "trying to strengthen his marriage" for a few days and then dropped out. If the ex-Mrs. Richter accused Mrs.Palin of being a homewrecker who ruined her marriage in those papers it's gonna be a very short honeymoon for Sarah and the party faithful, not to mention McCain and the American public.
