Sarah Palin had at least 10 other secret email accounts aside from the one that was hacked into last month, according to an ITS technician who worked with a Palin aide to set them up. The McCain campaign admits this but, of course, put their own interesting spin on it.

“As a champion of government accountability and transparency, Governor Palin was exercising an abundance of caution to ensure that all state and personal business matters were being kept separate,” said spokesperson Meghan Stapleton. “Governor Palin is committed to serving with the highest regard toward ethics”

Keeping state and personal business separate? Then why did the hacked account contain family photos, personal correspondence and official state correspondence regarding pending legislation? That’s the complete opposite of separation.

Time Magazine is reporting that vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s e-mail account was accessed by hackers. The Wikileaks website has published several screenshots of messages and other data hackers claim they got from one of Palin’s two Yahoo accounts. Palin had already been receiving criticism about her e-mail account after it was revealed she had been using them to conduct government business in an attempt to avoid compliancy and archive requirements, which happens to be a crime.
