A Democrat representing the people of Juneau which is in SE Alaska, left his position. This left an empty seat in the Alaska legislature for a Juneau, SE Alaska, representative. The people of Juneau, SE Alaska, voted for a Democratic representative. State law requires that the Governor replace this representative with a Democrat. Historically, the Governor picks the person the Democratic (or Republican if the person leaving was Republican)party recommends. She did not. She picked the person who used to be a Republican who remembered he was really a Democrat to fill the position. The legislature has to approve this choice which, I'm just guessing here, isn't going to happen.
So, now do you understand why the people in SE Alaska aren't happy with her pick?
WRONG!!!! If you did any type of research into the investigation into Palin's ethics and wrong doing, you would know that more AK Republicans than AK Democrats voted for the investigation. AND, all of this was put into action, before McCain decided he really didn't want to become POTUS and he picked Walin' Blamin' Palin as his running mate.
Geeze.......
I did enough research to see several of the investigators in the above picture and enough to also notice one of the "unbiased" members was appointed to the opposing sides cabinet. that's pretty much the definition of cronyism. Only cronies don't recognize it.

"One"!!! WOW!!!
This investigator knew last year, July, that he was going to be appointed to the 'opposing sides cabinet'. Hey, I think that was a good choice. Someone who can see into the future!!! Now, that's my kind of 'appointee'!

Obama is not a in your face Christian extremist like Palin.
Therefore my point is, she's so much of a do as I say, not as I do, person.
The whole thing is simply a real life version of the Three Stooges. Palin has poked the State Democrats in the eye, they will now commence to publicly beating each other with Hammers and 2X4's. It just gives more fodder to the blogs and radio talk shows.
In case anyone is interested, the saga continues. After nominating Grussendorf:
The Senate Democrats rejected her selection.
Palin then objected to the Democrat's rejection saying they didn't have the authority to do so in a closed door session.
The Democrats then fowarded a list of names asking Palin to pick somebody from that list.
Palin selected someone else not on that list.
The Democrats say they may consider her latest selection.
And the latest - Palin is now scolding the Democrats for taking so long to confirm a person they didn't want in the first place.
This is high comedy - you can't make this stuff up!
Funny how Barney Frank can have a job in a democrat congress and Joe Biden gets the VP...yet you think PALIN is dumb?
Seriously....that's just silly.
Sorry, she is nothing more than ignorant. She got where she is at today because she is an opportunist and basically was groomed by Ted Stevens. You know the ole story, it's not who you know but who you blow...
Sweet Jesus, Duckster, I know you have the hots for Sarah, but I don't think she would like your kind. Can you back off a while, like several months, give us all a break. Zip up and act like a man.
