ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin says she remains confident as she prepares to vote in the presidential election.
The Alaska governor stopped at a coffee shop in her hometown of Wasilla, Alaska, on her way to vote Tuesday morning.
She held up a newspaper that showed a headline reading, "Board exonerates Palin." That headline heralds the news that a state board has found no ethical violations by Palin in what has been known as the "Troopergate" scandal.
Palin held out the newspaper for TV cameras and remarked, "Nice headline."

I love Sarah, but I have to say I thought she spoke too long to reporters. They tried to throw her a couple curveballs.
Imho, she needs to learn to cut the press off at the knees when appropriate.

Is Palin campaigning today? Will she be with McCain tonight awaiting the results?

I disagree, she did fine and she doesn’t run and hide from them. They would have loved to paint her as inaccessible.

Sarah always looks cool. She has a certain glamour about her no matter what she wears.
I did notice the jacket - very sporty. What’s a Carhart jacket?

I watched the presser that Sarah had after voting. It was absolutely great! She was pumped up and excited about voting in her home town for a ticket where she is the VP candidate of the USA. I pray for her and McCain's success today!
It was still dark and a chilly 18 deg.

I did notice the jacket - very sporty. What’s a Carhart jacket?It's de facto high fashion in Alaska. It's a warm, durable line of clothing, meant for hard work and play outdoors. Here in Michigan, it's what a mom gives to her son when he gets his first construction job!
