Wasilla Rape Kit Update

Jim Geraghty over at National Review Online's The Campaign Spot has dug in on the rape kit story in Wasilla, AK.
Before the state law was changed, Wasilla was paying for rape kits out of city funds. If that is the case, it would appear to refute the whole crux of the charge against Palin as mayor.

And again, to reiterate, we have no paperwork indicating that any victim was ever charged for a rape kit by Wasilla.

Just about every key detail of this attack on Palin has proven wrong, or is unverified.

Read more details here and here. Read the whole "Wasilla Debunking Kit" article here.

It is what I expected, but it is good to see it in writing.
