Palin foresees positive changes in politics

Anchorage Daily News | September 2, 2007

Interview with Gov. Palin:

ADN: How do you feel about how the FBI investigations are going now? You had a lot to say in May when the indictments came out. Now the investigation is veering toward the congressional delegation and could affect how Alaska does business. … Does that make you uneasy?

PALIN: I am not scared of the changes that I believe are inevitable in terms of leadership that has represented the state of Alaska for all of these years because the change is inevitable.

Whether the FBI reveals something that leads to change, or just the changes in power in Congress … or individuals maybe choosing not to run for re-election, age even of our politicians playing a part in this, change is coming to Alaska…

My interpretation of it is that Alaska has got to change its image. … We need to be taken seriously so that we are given more credence and more authority here and we are provided more opportunities to develop our state. The only way that we are going to be able to gain the trust of the rest of the United States … is to prove that we can do things right and honestly and transparently and Sen. Stevens knows that has been my message.
