Noting that Sarah Palin’s accusations in Ohio had fired up a campaign rally, the Journal, which is widely considered to be country’s financial organ of record, reports in Coal Warriors: Palin, Obama Camp Spar Over ‘Bankrupting’ Big Coal, that,

FactCheck.org caught McCain-Palin’s lie regarding Barack Obama’s support for clean coal, but that hasn’t stopped them from putting out their robocalls in coal states on the eve of the 2008 election.
See the September 30, 2008, Annondale Political Fact Check, Not Coming Clean on Coal.
A McCain-Palin ad claims the Obama-Biden ticket opposes clean coal. Not true. [...]

As charming as Sarah Palin is at times, she terrifies me.
She is especially dangerous for two reasons. The first is that very disarming, folksy charm that propelled her career so far in so little time. The second is her religious fervor.

The McCain-Palin campaign, together with the Republican National Committee and the California Republican Party, have employed a enterprise managed by a GOP operative, accused of numerous counts of voter registration fraud, for voter registration purposes.
See Sam Stein’s story in the Huff Post on McCain-Palin’s “association” with Nathan Sproul.
Nathan Sproul is reported to be the former head of both [...]
