Granted, Obama has taken heat (and still does) for the church he attended, at least on these boards. What would YOUR reaction be like if Palin had attended a church with a racist pastor? You'd be all over that like white on rice, screaming and wailing about how horrible that is. (Ok, maybe not the screaming and wailing part. 
)
Most of those bones falling out of the closet have been nothing but rumors. Other things have been partial truths, twisted to make her look bad. Like this email scandal, so far we've seen nothing to indicate that the email accounts were used for official business. Much ado about nothing so far.
I'm already complaining about her church and I've been very vocal on that.. However I could care less what kind of church she goes too. I just want her and others to keep it separate from the politics. Palin could be a snake charmer for all I care (now I'd get a laugh out of that) but if she kept her personal religious views out of politics then I wouldn't give a crap about it.
The problem is she's part of the whole evangelist movement that's trying to take over this country's govt so they can push their agenda from within. The entire Republican party has been hijacked by them.
That's the the main reason I vote democrat, because I want to protect my rights and also stop this mix of church and state that the Christian Conservatives are trying to push through the Republican party. It's quite sicking IMO.
As for the bones.. I dunno where you get they are "mostly" rumors because every single one that has made it's light to the news has had facts behind it and have been either true or mostly true.
The only big rumor that wasn't true was about the baby being the daughters. However it ended up with the daughter being pregnant, so the rumor was still half true. Everything else has been true and IMO the circumstances about her youngest baby is still under question. Just far too many things wrong with that picture, but no proof so we have to go along with what she says. But that's the only real rumor that can't be proven.
She is involved in the troopergate scandal for trying to fire her exbrother inlaw.
She did belong to a Alaskan separatist group.
She did take earmarks and lied about not taking them. (still lies about it to this day even though it's been proven as fact)
She did try to ban books and tried to fire the librarian who wouldn't do it.
She has fired many others under questionable circumstances.
She did spend $50k remodeling the mayors office with out permission of the city council which broke the law.
She spent her town into millions in debit when it had a surplus prior to her becoming mayor.
The list goes on and on and they are all facts.. no rumors about them.
