The trooper not only should have been fired but put on trial for assaulting a child, found guilty, and put in an Alaskan prison. There is probably a list of infractions the guy she fired has written up on him ...wonder if this will become public.
I also think any dems holding office in Alaska will have great difficulty trying to undermine Palin in this effort..the people will vote them out..and if the major media go after Palin, they will be hurting for viewers.
It’s perfectly OK for an executive to fire a subordinate, as long as you are a Democrat. But when you are a republican, well, your firings are political and have to be investigated, ya’ know.
