The AP:
Trying to head off a potentially embarrassing state ethics report on GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, campaign officials released their own report Thursday that clears her of any wrongdoing.This is not without historical precedent. Though largely forgotten, Richard M. Nixon released a report clearing himself of any wrongdoing in the Watergate scandal on August 8th, 1974. More recently Bill Clinton released a report on the eve of the infamous Starr Report clearing himself of any wrongdoing with Monica Lewinsky. And finally the 2008 Cubs preemptively released a report on the eve of the playoffs clearing themselves of any wrongdoing in choking against the Dodgers.
