Charged with abuse of her power for firing the public safety commissioner because he refused to fire the man her sister was in a nasty divorce with. I'm guessing that the McCain camp will use this in her favor, arguing that even if it were true, she was protecting her sister from an abusive man.
One report suggests
"Attorney General Colberg said his office's review began after State Senator Hollis French was quoted in The Wall Street Journal about two weeks ago saying the governor could be impeached as a result of the probe. That raised questions about how impartial the Legislature's investigation was going to be, according to the governor's office. Colberg told KTUU it isn't witness tampering.

Opinion: Sarah Palin could have saved herself a lot of grief if she had simply told us why she canned Walt Monegan last month instead of serving up some New Age Oprah-style drivel about "new energy" and "new direction". There seems to be a disturbing aura of New Age influence within the Palin Administration.
