Sounds like much ado over nothing. The trooper still has his job, after all and she certainly wouldn't be the first or last pol to try to use her position that way. She didn't come clean at first, but neither did John Edwards or a number of others. Besides, I'm much more upset that she and her husband are "proud" of their daughter for not having an abortion. I can't ever imagine using that term in that context.
She certainly knows how to lie. I enjoyed your comments on Teal's blog.
