Palin education took her to five colleges: Gov. Sarah Palin | adn.com
SPOKANE, Wash. - Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin attended five colleges in six years before graduating from the University of Idaho in 1987.
Federal privacy laws prohibit the schools from disclosing her grades, and none of the schools contacted by The Associated Press could say why she transferred. There was no indication any of them were contacted as part of the background investigation of Palin by presidential candidate John McCain's campaign.

"Our office was not contacted by anyone," said Tania Thompson, spokeswoman for the University of Idaho in Moscow.

Don't blame me blame the premier paper in Alaska

Hopefully thats all. Remember she did smoke marijuana when it was legal.
Palin: She Inhaled, By Lisa Lerer - CBS News
The Politico) Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is known as a staunch social conservative. She's a life long NRA member, belongs to an anti-abortion-rights group called Feminists for Life and opposes civil unions.

But the self-proclaimed "hockey mom" had some youthful indiscretions.

Palin has said she smoked marijuana but didn't enjoy it and doesn't smoke anymore.

"I can't claim a Bill Clinton and say that I never inhaled,” she told the Anchorage Daily News in 2006.

To much is made of a college education. Academics by and large are pretty useless thats why they end up academics. Sarah is hands on goal and result oriented executive that isnt afraid to get her hands dirty doing real work

for instance running off the alaskan good ole boys who ripping off her state

See, she has more experience in education than any of the other candidates. They, at best, went to two schools to earn their degrees.

Yes and with every day we can see just how dirty they are.

I guess this is one time both sides can agree that VP Palin has dirty hands.

I hope my kids never plan to run for political office, if the fact that they switched around schools and attended several b/f FINALLY (thank god!) graduating will somehow work against them. I was thrilled when they got their degrees, so I find it hard to believe someone would see that as a BAD thing. But heck - I guess the media can make something out of nothing when an election campaign in going on . . .
