“Even more interesting considering the fact that Palin was a paid TV spokesperson for the company (Spenard) that got the contract to build the ice-rink to nowhere in Wasilla when she was mayor and other contracts when she was governor.”

Either provide something other than left-wing blog attacks for that claim or retract it.

Here is what I found:

There is 'capital cronyism' everywhere in politics, it is just a matter of scale.

It is common knowledge that palin did paid TV ads for Spenard between political gigs - even one of freepdom's most ardent palinites admits so on this very thread.

It is also common knowledge that Spenard sponsored todd palin's racing team.

It is also fact that Spenard benefitted from both palin's administrations (mayor and governor).

It is also fact that Spenard was involved enough in the building of the palin's dream home that they held a builders lien on the property (the link to the filing is up thread).

Make of it what you will but those are the facts, and facts are apolitical.
