Troopergate probe running into new resistance

Alaska's investigation into whether Gov. Sarah Palin abused her power, a
potentially damaging distraction for John McCain's presidential
campaign, ran into intensified resistance Tuesday from state Republican
lawmakers who want to end it or delay it past the election.

Alaska's House speaker, a Republican who supported the "Troopergate"
investigation two months ago, openly questioned its impartiality and
raised the possibility of delaying the findings.

The surprise maneuver by Rep. John Harris reflected deepening resolve by
Republicans to spare Palin embarrassment or worse in the final weeks of
the presidential campaign.

And it marked a further fraying of a bipartisan consensus, formed by a
unanimous panel before Palin became McCain's running mate, that her
firing of the state's public safety commissioner justified the ethical
investigation.

Gotta love the Repubs...stonewall, stonewall, stonewall.

Damn you people are dumb. The Alaska State Troopers belong to the AFL
CIO that has spent $millions on the Obama campaign. Troopergate is a
political smear job.
