JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) - There are no bombshells, no "gotcha" moments. The emails of Sarah Palin - more than 24,000 pages of them released Friday by the state of Alaska from her first two years as governor - paint a picture of an image-conscious, driven leader, closely involved with the day-to-day duties of running the state and riding herd on the signature issues of her administration.

After debuts in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina later this month, the pro-Sarah Palin film “The Undefeated” is headed for nationwide release. But first it will need to be scaled back: the current version contains so much profanity — mostly from comedians and pundits cursing about Palin – as well as violent file footage of war used to portray the attacks against Palin as particularly savage, that it does not yet have a rating.

They said, she came from the wrong said of town. They told us she was bad. Then I knew she was the best we had. That's when I fell for the leader of the pack." Who am I singing about?

A new political fund-raising group called "Draft Sarah Palin" registered with the Federal Election Commission this month, federal records indicate, and the committee's treasurer has a history of big-time fund-raising. Randy Goodwin, the group's treasurer, told OpenSecrets Blog that a yet-to-be-developed website -- DraftSarahPalin.us -- will be the main fund-raising tool for the "grass roots committee." The pro-Palin site, he said, should begin functioning after January 1. The committee's mission is simple, Goodwin said: Help make Palin the GOP presidential nominee in 2012. "Sarah Palin is the single most effective leader in the Republican Party," he said in an e-mail....
