In a world exclusive The NATIONAL ENQUIRER names GOP VP Candidate Sarah Palin's secret lover!

No less than three members of the man’s family including one by sworn affidavit have claimed that Sarah Palin engaged in an extramarital affair with hus­band Todd’s former business partner, Brad Hanson.

These sources have named Hanson as Palin’s secret love, and say their affair nearly wrecked both their marriages.

Hanson owned a snowmobile dealership with Palin’s husband Todd, who immediately dissolved the partnership after he heard stories about the affair, which occurred around 1996, according to the sources. At the time, Palin was mayor of Wasilla.

Palin has vehemently de­nied cheating on her hus­band, and Hanson insisted to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER that he was never romantically in­volved with the 44-year-old Republican vice presiden­tial candidate.

However, Hanson family insider, Jim Burdett, has gone on the record and passed a rigorous polygraph test, revealing de­tails of the affair to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER in a world exclusive interview.

1. no wonder Todd acts like a stalker and follows her every freaking move.

[sabra]

2. coming to every supermarket checkout and quickie mart

[yourout]

3. Now THAT makes her qualified to be a Republican President.

[seabeyond]

9. bah hahhaha, lol. ya. as they lecture us on family values and christianity. n/t

[Kalyke]

4. Here's a picture of Lover Boy

[bullimiami]

8. [sarah palin is an idiot.] LOL. Thats the funniest thing ive seen in a while.

Thanks.

[RT Atlanta]

10. she must have a thing for goatees....

what a tool, but I do feel bad for him for having his name drawn out in the open

[Virginia Dare]

11. No wonder McBush feels such simpatico with her..

they both go for their spouses' dopplegangers...:puke:

[SuperTrouper]

28. Well he is better looking than Eskimo Todd. Way to go Sarah!

:rofl:

[bullwinkle428]

40. Wow, the resemblance is striking enough that it makes you wonder

how many times she screamed out the wrong name in the middle of one of their "sessions"!

[Quantess]

41. He's a younger version of Todd.

You're right, the resemblance is striking.

[crazy_vanilla]

43. but why, he looks just like the First Dude!!!

[Warren DeMontague]

46. Good grief.

I guess the bowl cut is alive and well in Alaska, eh?

[mitchum]

56. She really has a thing for the Maynard G Krebs type, doesn't she?

[bullimiami]

5. as always. i dont care who she did. its just the hypocrisy, stupid.

[Kalyke]

14. Agreed.

You don't run as a family values candidate whilst you're unwed daughter is pregnant, you've had a least one extra-marital affair and you attempt to keep women from actually planning families by banning birth control.

She's more than an idiot, she's a hypocrite!

[polichick]

6. That will probably help her among Republicans - guns, God and illicit sex, oh boy!

[napi21]

13. Errr...not those RW nut jobs who love her for her moral principles!

They're not a very understanding group.

[polichick]

27. Do they exist? Seems to me Christian extremists have plenty of affairs...

Just look at their ministers!

[napi21]

33. They were all MEN! n/t

[polichick]

35. Oh, I see - and she's Slutty Sarah! :)

[napi21]

36. Unfortunately, that's the way they look at a woman who strays off the

reservation, so to speak. They hold women to a different standard than they do men. And your name "slutty Sarah" is probably a good description of how they feel.

It's also the same basis they use when they say they would NEVER vote for a WOMAN to be President! Yea, I know...what about Sarah's attraction? Well. she's running for VP, and they simply don't think far enough ahead of today to recognize that THAT WOMAn could actually BE President! I think that's one of the reasons so many Pubs wanted Hillary to be the Dem candidate. They knew that most of the RWers still believe a woman's place is in the home, "cooking, cleaning, raising kids, and keeping the FAMILY together"!

[seabeyond]

38. i have never differentiated between gender when one fucks around on another

they are pigs, either gender. want to fuck around, without ok of mate, get a divorce. i am not into people hurting people they say they love.

[SuperTrouper]

29. She's got the votes from Vitter, Craig and Mark Foley

[begin_within]

7. A real family-values kinda gal.

[TwilightGardener]

16. "...ends Nov. 4"--

:rofl:

[TwilightGardener]

12. Hee hee!

[NotThisTime]

15. Oh my goodness....

[nc4bo]

17. my my Sarah. How very Christian of you. I won't judge you on what you did but for

the Christian banner you continuously use as your prop.

[BonnieJW]

18. Doesn't anyone think it's strange

that since the NE is owned by Murdock and Murdock is for McCain, why would he publish this story?

[Kalyke]

20. Murdock doesn't own the NE.

Murdock owns several rags in London and Australia, but he doesn't own the NE.

That's owned by a Democrat: http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/1007/The_Clintonite_who_owns_National_Enquirer.html

[WA98296]

24. Surprise, surprise: one of Hillary Clinton's key backers, Roger Altman

[Cheap_Trick]

19. Well, that tears it!!

MORE anthrax for The Enquirer....

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

21. Looks like Sarah's handled one too many snakes

[billyoc]

25. DUzy!

:rofl:

[1Hippiechick]

45. "I never once KISSED those snakes. I HANDLED them, but I did NOT kiss them!" n/t

[8 track mind]

22. now, now let's not judge her so hastily,

she could have been merely counseling him in her christian beliefs. In a darkened hotel room.

:sarcasm:

That had to be an interesting conversation in the Palin household:

Todd: "Dammit Sarah are you having an affair with Brad Hanson?"

Sarah: "In what respect, Todd?"

[Kalyke]

23. "In what respect, Todd?"

:rofl: :applause:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

26. Monica Lewisnsky's False Affidavit Was The Basis Of The Impeachment Investigation

It is up to the Republicants to prove those affidavits are false...

[flamingdem]

30. Oh. So she tried a snow job

on her Alasko-boy ... National Enquirer to the rescue?

[BlooInBloo]

31. "Jane you ignorant slut!"

:rofl:

[Overseas]

32. Well son of a gun !! So it turns out to be true, eh?

We were just letting it drop because it seemed too gossipy.

Now they have affidavits and polygraphs !

So Palin and McCain have some really basic family values in common then-- Adultery Rules !

Edited to add that this, too, supports the RNC driving force -- Country Club First !!

[AtomicKitten]

34. Oh boy!

[BlooInBloo]

37. I guess McAldulterer wasn't a crazy as we thought. He really DOES have a chance with her!

:rofl:

[democrattotheend]

39. Can we please stop posting this crap here?

It serves no purpose but making Obama look bad. Keep in mind, the GOP ran ads holding him accountable for a user diary on Kos, and most Americans don't know that that's all the ad is talking about...the ad made it look like Obama had something to do with going after Sarah Palin's kids.

[ncteechur]

42. I disagree. Obama cannot and isn't going after her, he has better things to do.

But I'm not the nominee. I am a voter and I think I have every right to know if some self-righteous right-wing nutcase from Alaska is running to be the VP of the country. Do you not think this would be relevant if a dem (Edwards) was the nominee or the VP nominee?

[crazy_vanilla]

44. however outside sympathizers can

She is the values candidate, after all :sarcasm:

[demokatgurrl]

67. Hell, Edwards isn't even the nominee

and he has vanished from public sight. If he happened to have still been in the race... well he would be no longer, I'm certain.

[Warren DeMontague]

52. No. When the GOP stops trying to legislate my family values, I will stop mocking theirs. nt

[Essene]

64. This is not the same at all. There's a national rag running this story... we're only discussing it

although i absolutely believe it.

i had a hunch she was the affair type before any of the rumors even came on nationally... although i dont consider this "conclusive evidence" exactly.

[lame54]

47. Just came from the store - The Globe has it too

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

51. I saw that in the store - it was last week's edition. This week's cover is about Cindy's drug use

[Warren DeMontague]

48. Not only is Jesus coming back in our lifetime, but he's going to be VEWWWWY ANGGGWY.

"You've been doing the no-no with your ho-ho!"

[Essene]

65. Jesus is sexy. She's gonna try to... oh, nevermind...

[Buck Rabbit]

49. HEY, POST A SPOILER ALERT ......

Some of us our waiting to watch the Jerry Springer - Palin Family episode!

:evilgrin:

[npincus]

50. is it on the newstands yet?

[Raschel]

53. All of her self-righteous supporters will have an excuse for her

because they are colossal, bitter hypocrites!

[vaberella]

54. Wow and that is all I willl say on the topic. n/t

[Raschel]

55. Did McCain call her the C - word yet?

He must be cussing up a storm! Hilarious.

[tanyev]

57. Gosh, I've never bought so many National Enquirers before this!

[DerekJ]

58. LOL ... LOOLL ... LOOOOOOOOOOOL. N/T

[OakCliffDem]

59. Kick

[Douglas Carpenter]

60. Kick and recommended

[npincus]

61. Damn... I have to buy that rag AGAIN...

to add to my "Palin collection" I keep near my toilet.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

62. Who's your Daddy?

[Ian_rd]

63. Talk about Paris Hilton and Britney Spears ... McCain now has an Enquirer Cover as a running mate

How embarrassing.

Imagine all those grocery shoppers seeing that as they wait in line to pay for their more-expensive-than-ever milk and eggs.

[Orsino]

66. Polygraph tests are bullshit.

Ignore that aspect; there is no scientific backing for the device as a lie detector. Its greatest effect is as a placebo, intimidating people into the truth.
