some quotes:

"The resulting standoff [Troopergate]has put Alaska on the verge of a constitutional crisis, as the legislative and executive branches each refuse to budge, and no one is sure who is in charge. . . .

The standoff has ended any vestiges of bipartisan goodwill for Palin in Juneau, after just 21 months in office. "The level of money [the McCain campaign] sent up here to attack people is unprecedented in a small state like this. . . ."

Alaskans are angry . . .

". . . the blogs in Alaska have been full of rants about the McCain campaign. "A pack of high-powered East Coast lawyers are the new artisans of the Palin 'image.' If anyone has a question about Palin's 20 months as governor, ask the McCain campaign, because apparently no one else can give you the answers. This is not going over well in Alaska," one blogger wrote last week.

"Who the hell do they think they are?" wrote another.

If I were a Republican, I'd encourage Palin to resign so she can devote full time to the campaign and leave the Alaskan problems behind her. But I'm not. I want her to shoot her other foot on live TV.
