John Fund: Obama sends a mini-army of lawyers to Alaska to go after Palin

John Fund has this info at the WSJ's Political Diary:

Democrats understand Sarah Palin is a formidable political force who has upset the Obama victory plan. The latest Washington Post/ABC Poll shows John McCain taking a 12-point lead over Barack Obama among white women, a reversal of Mr. Obama's eight-point lead last month.

It's no surprise, then, that Democrats have airdropped a mini-army of 30 lawyers, investigators and opposition researchers into Anchorage, the state capital Juneau and Mrs. Palin's hometown of Wasilla to dig into her record and background. My sources report the first wave arrived in Anchorage less than 24 hours after John McCain selected her on August 29.

The main area of interest to the Democratic SWAT team is Mrs. Palin's dismissal in July of her public safety commissioner. Mrs. Palin says he was fired for cause. Her critics claim he was fired because he wouldn't bend to pressure to get rid of a state trooper, Mike Wooten, who had been involved in a bitter divorce battle with Mrs. Palin's sister. Mr. Wooten is certainly a colorful character. He served a five-day suspension after the Palin family filed a complaint against him alleging he had threatened Mrs. Palin's father. They also accused him of using a Taser on his 10-year-old stepson, drinking in his patrol car and illegally shooting a moose. . . .

Mr. Lott, you may be interested in a 34-minute documentary I did on Obama. Do not let my looks scare you away... I give a bit a biographical info at the beginning of the video to calm any fears.

I shed a little more light on Obama's theological background that hasn't been hashed out yet.

What is your evidence that Obama sent this mini-army of lawyers to Alaska? I understand that the Obama team denied it. I imagine you must have excellent proof, since 30 lawyers could hardly have landed without being noticed.

So, what is your proof?
