Why is McCain trying to stall the release of details regarding Palin's involvement in "troopergate"?

Question

"The Alaska state senator running an investigation of Gov. Palin says the McCain campaign is using stall tactics to prevent him from releasing his final report by Oct. 31, four days before the November election."

"It's likely to be damaging to the Governor's administration," said Senator Hollis French, a Democrat, appointed the project manager for a bi-partisan State Senate Legislative Counsel Committee investigation of claims that Palin abused her office to get the Alaska public safety commissioner, Walt Monegan, fired.

Answer 1

last I heard a Governor has the right to fire people in their administration. I do recall a govenor in arkansas that did something similar. Do you recall the name and party of that governor?

Answer 2

You're assuming that the Democratic politician you cite is the one telling the truth, and that the McCain spokesman is lying.

I'd suggest you look for some nonpartisan information before making such an allegation.  Otherwise, all you're doing is feeding partisan politics.

Answer 3

you can not impede an on going investigation  

Answer 4

Because he knows the truth will hurt him. The truth is OUT: Palin had her sister's ex-husband paid $10,000! What more ...oh yeah, there is  more. OBAMA rules again! Positive change for America!

Answer 5

I'm not sure.

But wait... someone who got fired is trying to get out of it by saying they didn't deserve it? Blaming someone else?

I'm sorry, but I have NO respect for a petty-tryant, money grubbing, state troopers, not if they are as bad in Alaska as they are in my state. Shysters, the lot of them...

Lying to save his job??? Perish the thought...

Answer 6

Lets see a DEMOCRAT wants to release a report that ALL KNOW will be SLANTED from being released 4 days before election....and are you libs that naive to believe that it could not be done sooner.....The DEMS do not want to give the GOP time to reply and show the LIES that will be generated to smear Palin....If the Dems have the info either release it earlier...or later....but do NOT believe that we are gullible like Obama's sheep to trust you when you say that it HAS to be released on that date...WE CAN SMELL WHAT YOU ARE SHOVELING
