A hacker got into Sarah Palin's email account by choosing the "forgot my password" option, then answer the security question: "Where did you meet your spouse?" Since Palin had told the stroy of meeting her husband in high school, the hacker guessed "Wasilla high" and was let into her yahoo account. An account where, by the way, she had conducted official Alaska business. This is a no-no because official business should be conducted on the arched anad trackable government email account. Err...hmmm...
Anyway, full story here:

The moral of the story is, if you're going to be governor of a state and then run for vice president of the most powerful country in the world, make sure your information is protected, instead of being left so wide open as to induce major eye rolls from the informed public.
Yeesh.
