18. Sarah doesn't know the law.

Edited on Thu Nov-13-08 10:59 PM by Blue_In_AK

Please read this analysis by Andrew Halcro of why Sarah couldn't appoint ANYONE, not even for an interim position. It involves a state Supreme Court decision that says the referendum we passed forbidding any interim appointment before a special election trumps the law passed by the legislature that says the governor has that right. http://www.andrewhalcro.com/test_1

If what Andrew says is correct, and I believe it is, then any appointment is out of the question.
