According to Joe McGinniss, the offer to rent the house next to Sarah Palin's came because the landlord trusted him to respect the former governor's privacy.

The harridan neighbor needs to be outed. She’s the only player who’s still anonymous.

The landlord is a lady.

A lady? I doubt it.

A female, yes.

A lady? No.

Some more info on how Creepy McGinniss got the rental can be found here: http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/2010/05/28/2010-05-28_sarah_palins_neighbor_sought_out_journalist_joe_mcginniss_to_rent_out_house_for_.html

“In an e-mail to a Palin supporter that was published on Politico, Joe McGinniss Jr. said that the neighbor had sought out his father because “the Palins had crossed her (owed her money for renovations she had done at their request and never paid her for),” Yahoo! News reports. “So she knew McGinniss was writing the book and found him and offered him the house.”

The Best Western was "prohibitively expensive"?

They couldn't cut him a weekly or monthly rate like they do for other people?

I maintain that the smartest thing the Palins could have done (and should have done from the very first moment they found out the creepy stalker had moved in next door) is rent a house somewhere else. Anywhere would work, and Sarah has the financial means to live anywhere she wants.

They should have left this creepy stalker McGinnis peeping at a vacant house for the next six months.

So, either McGinnis is lying through his teeth or his son is.
My bet is, they both are. “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.”
McGinnis and his son are obviously both a couple of creeps.

Does this really require thought? The bastard moved up there because of the big city environment? Lord have mercy the kids would free reign around the property.

Hopefully this guy will get drunk, do something stupid, and Todd will kick the crap out of him.

From the article:

McGinniss said he was offended by the way Palin described his presence next door.

Awwwww, poor stalker's feelings are hurt.

Contrary to what Palin wrote on Facebook, he said, he can't see into the windows of the family's home, and he can't hear the Palins' conversations.

He seems pretty sure of that; which would mean that he must have tried to peer in the windows and listen in on conversations.

Joe McGinniss is a stalker.

when Sarah and family are not at home, I hope dad, Chuck Heath, is around and armed in case McGinniss decides to check doors and windows.

When Sarah and family are at home, I hope they host many large gatherings of like-minded folks. And music. Lots of good, hard rockin' American music.

Maybe Ted Nugent would like to be a house guest.

And Charlie Daniels.

Actually, the thing to do is to invite the guy over for dinner. Often. When he refuses, put it on facebook. Often

OK, I read the whole story. McGinniss’s creepiness is astounding. He actually fantasizes - at length - about Gov. Palin bringing him cookies.

Sounds "very charming, very sweet." /Michael Jackson>

Cheers!

I agree. Who is the neighbor? What’s her political background? Has she taken money from other journalistic outfits for information? How about the dem party? Private investigators? How much money has she made by being a Palin neighbor? And what’s her motive? Does she have a drug or alcohol problem? Shine the light on her private life and see how she enjoys it. And McGinniss deserves the same treatment.
