With the news that even Todd Palin, who is not an Alaska government employee, is going to refuse to testify before the troopergate investigators, someone needs to ask Sarah Palin the following questions:

Why are you going back on your earlier promises to cooperate with the investigation?

If you are asserting that the investigation is political and partisan in nature, how do you account for the fact that the investigation was convened months prior to your nomination, by a Republican assembly?

If you take the position that the investigation should be tabled until after the election, in order to avoid tainting the election, and if you are elected, will you pledge to resign the office of the Vice-Presidency if the investigation eventually uncovers wrongdoing on your part?
