Question

If Sarah Palin was so popular why was she almost recalled as Mayor of Wasilla?

Answer

The Wasilla City Council considered but never took up a recall motion after she fired a longtime police chief, who subsequently brought a lawsuit. A citizen's group dropped their recall bid, and a judge ruled Palin had the authority to fire the chief. <href a="http://www.adn.com/sarah-palin/story/513745.html"></href>

Quotes

Shrill and sarcastic political attacks may fire up the Republican base, but they don't change the fact that a McCain-Palin administration would mean four more years of failed Bush-Cheney policies.
