Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R), who had said that her state’s public safety director quit, is now saying that he was fired for being insubordinate because he was too aggressive in going after sex offenders, notes Josh Marshall. TalkingPointsMemo favorite Terry McAuliffe, known for his unflagging support of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) in the presidential primaries, is returning to the campaign trail to stump for Barack Obama in Virginia, where McAuliffe is considering a run for governor, writes David Kurtz.
