I read something today that said there was a similar situation in the past where a "deal" was made. The Governor stepped down, the Lt. Governor took office as Governor and appointed the outgoing Governor as Senator.
Juli, could it happen that way?

Do a Google on "Wasilla Hillbillies".
I don't believe Palin would be so stupid as to step down as gov, just so that she could be a Senator....
but hey, you never know!

Is there a media bias? The answer is clearly yes! The press spent $9.6 million following Obama on the campaign and $4.4 million following the McCain campaign. In other words, the media spent more than twice as much following Obama. The worst offender was CBS, which spent $1.2 million traveling with Obama but only $222,000 traveling with the McCain. In other words, CBS spent almost 6 times as much following Obama as they spent following McCain. Even FOX News spent more on the Obama campaign, $496,000, than on the McCain campaign, $313,000. Clearly, the media was more interested in traveling on the Obama Express than on the Straight Talk Express. So much for objectivity!
I you do a little objective research you will note that even FOX News leans a little to the left.
