Have McCain's 10 investigators gone up to Alaska to discover or destroy?

1. I think destroy and misdirect, spin, etc

[eleny]

3. Before this is over we'll be hearing "Executive Privilege" uttered

Btw, I wonder if they already spoke with the librarian where Palin tried to get the books banned, too. :scared:

[tridim]

5. Executive Privilege has already been claimed as of yesterday evening.

Too lazy to get you a link, but it was posted yesterday on DU.

[eleny]

7. I believe you - don't worry about a link. I can go look later

I can't see how it could be considered EP since McCain serves in the Senate. But I get the point since he's running for the Executive.

This really is a trip through the looking glass. Thanks for the info even if it is terribly depressing.

17. her Executive Privilege as governor. nt

12. Failin's newly hired lawyer has announced a stonewall defense. . . . nt

16. Let's hope the tabloids find the cracks in the armor

Money has a way of saying "Open Sesame".

2. I did hear them referred to as scrubbers.

That means get rid of evidence.

[eleny]

4. No kidding?! I hadn't heard that

This isn't the America our ancestors sacrificed for. Maybe it never was. :(

10. Kind of too late for most of it..

Google cache & a bunch of dillgent bloggers took care of that :)

6. This crossed my mind last night...minus the visual.

:)

11. Well, DU is a giant wave length

I was hoping they'd get up there, find crap and decide she should step down. Then I had a V-8 moment and realized how naive I can be.

8. Someone else here put it well

(I wish I remembered the name so I could give proper credit)

"These aren't investigators, these are fixers"

[eleny]

14. Let's hope they're too late and our side gets to everything first

[jberryhill]

20. But if McCain had his way - she'd be out.... So...

...they need to find enough stuff to get her to withdraw herself.

[NotThisTime]

9. Doesn't matter, Democrats got there first... they got what they needed

[eleny]

13. Thanks - you just saved my day from being a total pit

I'm yearning for a nice Jon Vogel interview on video.

[yellowdogintexas]

18. yes, someone posted that when they got there they were told they were the

first ones to come inquiring about any of this.

"whew"

[AuntPatsy]

15. Easy answer...destroy, scrub, wipe out, lots of ways to describe their job..

[jberryhill]

19. Depends on what they REALLY want to do....

McCain didn't WANT Palin in the first place.

And there is more than one set of boots on the ground up there.

Don't kid yourself if you think Romney and Lieberman don't have people there to (as do we).

It's an all out sled race to get to the good stuff first.

[eleny]

21. Interesting thoughts, there

McCain is digging his heels in as of today. But even if Palin drops out, he still looks like dog doo. With all factions sledding up to dig for political gold it's no-win for McCain.
