Palin Ethics Watch

To counter the RNC's "Biden Gaffe Watch" on the GOP site, we need to have a "Palin Ethics Watch" counting the days until she actually testifies in the ethics investigation against her.

If there's one good thing about Obama & McCain being the nominees, it's that they are both reasonable people who believe in maintaining high ethics.
