Can We Get A Rewrite Here?
Talking Points Memo —
Sarah Palin knows a thing or two about abuse of power when she says John McCain is ready to put a stop to it:
Palin might want to edit her stump speech

Yeah Sarah, as president, John McCain would indeed “end… the abuse of power.” In Alaska.
Palin says McCain will end ‘abuses of power’ in Washington.
Think Progress —
