Sarah Palin's "lover" tries to have divorce sealed

Scott Richter, who's been named in some reports as the man accused of having an affair with the married Sarah Palin, has filed an emergency motion to have his divorce records sealed!

The McCain campaign threatened to sue the National Enquirer for reporting that Sarah got it on with her husband's former business partner. The religious right "family values" wing will probably give her a pass on this one, just like they gave her unwed daughter a pass on the teen pregnancy.

But imagine if this were the Obamas... or if Michell Obama had belonged to a political party that wanted to secede from the United States...
