I agree, FBI needs to catch these people. They should probably start by looking at the Obama headquarters.

Those liberal twirps at yahoo probably opened it up for them.

I can't believe the entire liberal left is afraid of a praying woman of integrity with 5 kids. Zowie.

The FBI and Secret Service have launched a joint investigation into the apparent hacking of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin’s private e-mail account after a widely-read Web site published screen grabs from it on Wednesday.

The article posted on Gawker.com revealed snapshots of e-mail exchanges the Alaska governor had with colleagues as well as private family photos. The gossip site says the email account has since been shut down.

Rick Davis, campaign manager for John McCain, released a statement Wednesday calling the publication a “shocking invasion of the governor’s privacy and a violation of law.”

Hopefully they will get them.

I hope they catch these jerks and fry their butts.

Such an invasion of privacy.

The AP refused to turn over the emails to the secret service and FBI.

So far all cable news networks are saying their was nothing but personal stuff in them. To me it does not matter, it is still an invasion of privacy.

Some people will do anything to win or to help their favorite to win, but if you are trying to do the right thing those same people will try to destroy you for that. What an upside down world we live in!

I cant believe a government official was using a Yahoo account for their private email.

There you go spouting the mainstream media's liberal party line. It's unbelievable. Somebody breaks the law by illegally hacking into this woman's PRIVATE email account. What does the media do? do they berate the scum who did this? No, they blame Palin for it. Unbelievable.

Well it seems they got him.

Republican vice presidential candidate, Alaska Gov., Sarah Palin, answers...

WASHINGTON (AP) - Details emerged Thursday behind the break-in of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's e-mail account, including a first-hand account suggesting it was vulnerable because a hacker was able to impersonate her online to obtain her password.
The hacker guessed that Alaska's governor had met her husband in high school, and knew Palin's date of birth and home Zip code. Using those details, the hacker tricked Yahoo Inc.'s service into assigning a new password, "popcorn," for Palin's e-mail account, according to a chronology of the crime published on the Web site where the hacking was first revealed.
The FBI and Secret Service launched a formal investigation Wednesday. Yahoo declined to comment Thursday on details of the investigation, citing Palin's privacy and the sensitivity of such investigations.
The person who claimed responsibility for the break-in did not respond Thursday to an e-mail inquiry from The Associated Press.
"i am the lurker who did it, and i would like to tell the story," the person wrote in the account, which circulated on the Internet. What started as a prank was cut short because of panic over the possibility the FBI might investigate, the hacker wrote.
Investigators were waiting to speak with Gabriel Ramuglia of Athens, Ga., who operates an Internet anonymity service used by the hacker. Ramuglia told the AP on Thursday he was reviewing his own logs and promised to turn over any helpful information to authorities because the hacker violated rules against using the anonymity service for illegal activities.
"If you're doing something illegal and causing me issues by doing this, I'm willing to cooperate," Ramuglia said. "Obviously this is the most high profile situation I've dealt with."

Doesn't look like they have him yet. I hope they catch him though, and string him up.

I am not blaming her for having her account hacked and I believe the person who did it needs to brought to justice.

It just find it interesting that anyone use a Yahoo type email, especially anyone of any importance. The only blame I would point towards her is if she is using her private Yahoo to conduct government business.
