I've been watching this for a while with curiousity as to what job offering Hillary Clinton will end up with after the election, and I have a theory as to a cross situation with Joe Liberman.  Again, just a theory, but the way the Liberman thing is being handled by Obama and staff, and the way they are not really behind what Senator Reid is doing each step of the way makes it appear to me that it is being used as a possible way to discredit the Majority Leader.  I don't think Clinton would want Sec. State, I might be wrong here but it's just a gut feeling, but I am SURE she would love to be Majority Leader of the United States Senate. 

Let Harry Reid make the mistake of mishandling this Liberman thing, or just the perception of it take hold, and see how fast the revolving door slams shut allowing Clinton to drop into his spot, making her the first female to hold the position.  Again, this is just theoryspeak at this point, but I don't think I've heard Reid say anything yet that Obama's people supported, they seem to be throwing wrenches in the cogs whenever he gets the wheels moving.  It wouldn't be any type of shock to see the switch.

 

(Revolving door slamming shut is a little rahmbonics for those that don't catch the reference.)

I went and read the 4 page earmark request form on the AK website, and I notice a trend.  There are a LOT of fishing related requests.  12 that relate to the industry to be exact.

If I am not mistaken, Todd has a commercial fishery.  I do not know if any conclusive research has been done to prove this, but it would be something to check into.  It is possible that the Palins are applying for or receiving subsidies back through Todd's commercial fishing business.  

It seems to me if that is happening and can be proven with a paper trail, it would be quite damning.  If she is not just the earmark queen, but they also enhance their own family income using the federal money given to their state it would be a more effective line of attack.  Does anyone know if research to this effect has been attempted by anyone?
