Even the plane story seems to be falling apart
On a youtube posting an Alaskan resident claimed that the Plane Palin sold failed to hit reserve price on ebay twice. She then went to an external auctioneer and sold the price for $600,000 less than market value.

No proper details as yet but worth looking in to.

1. Didn't she say "I put it on EBAY"?
If that is the case, then what she said was technically true,

I don't think she said "I sold it on Ebay". But I could be mistaken.

5. The profit part is a lie but it sounds like Palin carefully chose her words.

6. It really looks like Palin is going to be a total meltdown...
There are several scandals brewing simultaneously, any of which could be showstoppers.

7. A lie is a lie
even if you attempt to cover it up as being economical with the truth.

8. According to CNN her Advisors are already
attempting to cover her arse on this one. CNN reported that it was put on ebay but not sold on ebay, it was sold for "a little loss". £700k a little loss?
