Get ready: McGinniss prepares to smear Palin

  It's quite compelling that the same people who refused to show any interest in the past socialist philosophies and behavior of the current occupant of the White House are now licking their chops to get the new book on Sarah Palin by Joe McGinniss.
  So here it comes from the International Business Times:

Finding the truth in the fast-developed Sarah Palin scandals involving claims that she A) had sex with Miami Heat star Glen Rice in the 1980s, B) snorted cocaine from a 55-gallon drum years ago while snowboarding with her husband, Todd, and friends, C) had an affair with her husband's business partner for six months, and D) smoked pot in college with a professor, is easier than it seems.

  And The Washington Post, not to be outshone, "confirms" that Rice says he did have any affair with Palin. The Enquirer has more, of course.
  Now Obama has declared that he used cocaine. His behavior has been downplayed by the press. In fact, with the current crop of 40 ish candidates, allegations of drug use are common. 
  Did she do it? Some of us do not care. Did she have an affair with someone before she married Todd? Some of us do not care. Did she have an affair recently with her husband's business partner? That's more relevant and some of us DO care.
  OTOH, it seems unlikely. And absolutely the kind of thing you'd expect creeps like Joe McGinniss to say about an attractive, charismatic female.
  In case you've forgotten, McGinniss is the guy who moved in next to Palin in the hope of finding dirt on her.
  We've discussed McGinniss before. Here's a bit from WizBangBlog and McGinniss's duplicitous behavior that helped keep a man in jail:

When the book was finally published, MacDonald realized he had been brutally deceived. McGinniss portrayed MacDonald as a psychopathic, enraged, drug crazed murderer. It turned out the entire time McGinniss fawned over MacDonald and told him how much he believed in his innocence, McGinniss was writing the exact opposite.
MacDonald was so disgusted at McGinniss' deception that he filed a federal lawsuit against him. During the course of the trial McGinniss admitted under oath during questioning by MacDonald's lawyer that he didn't even believe the theory he promoted in the book:

  Notice also that Andrew Sullivan, who truly has some kind of, um, problem when it comes to Palin and her developmentally disabled son, is one of the preview readers for McGinniss's book.
  Politics is a dirty business; there is no perfect candidate. We certainly want a candidate who reflects the values they and we espouse.
  But what Palin has been through is unlike any other political candidate.
  Unfortunately for McGinniss, so many things have been screamed about Palin that it might just be the case that nobody believes any of the allegations anymore.
