Sarah Palin is now in the middle of an alleged cheating scandal that involves her husband Todd Palin’s former business partner Brad Hanson. Recently Brad requested to have his divorce records sealed to protect his privacy, but the judge denied that request. The rumor that Sarah had cheated was around at that time, but the divorce records never mentioned Sarah, or cheating at all, so now the National Enquirer got other people to make the cheating claims without any other real evidence at all. The National Enquirer reports:

No less than three members of the man’s family including one by sworn affidavit have claimed that Sarah Palin engaged in an extramarital affair with hus band Todd’s former business partner, Brad Hanson.

These sources have named Hanson as Palin’s secret love, and say their affair nearly wrecked both their marriages.

Hanson owned a snowmobile dealership with Palin’s husband Todd, who immediately dissolved the partnership after he heard stories about the affair, which occurred around 1996, according to the sources. At the time, Palin was mayor of Wasilla.

Palin has vehemently de nied cheating on her hus band, and Hanson insisted to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER that he was never romantically in volved with the 44-year-old Republican vice presiden tial candidate.

However, Hanson family insider, Jim Burdett, has gone on the record and passed a rigorous polygraph test, revealing de tails of the affair to The NATIONAL ENQUIRER in a world exclusive interview.

Burdett is a former brother-in-law of Hanson’s estranged wife Carolyn’s brother, Craig Batton, and still speaks with many family members.

“I’ve known about Brad having had an affair for a long time, but it wasn’t until just recently that I learned his affair was with Sarah Palin,” Burdett told The NATIONAL ENQUIRER.

“Sarah was elected mayor of Wasilla, Brad became a city council member in the nearby town of Palmer, and they started an affair.

“Todd found out about the affair and was so mad he broke up their partnership at the snowmobile dealership,” Burdett claimed.

Another source, who preferred to remain anonymous for fear of repercussions, provided The NATIONAL ENQUIRER with a sworn affidavit attesting to the Palin-Hanson story.

“Todd was away on business a lot and Sarah felt lonely. Brad was a good listener, and Sarah talked to him at length. Eventually, she real ized she was falling in love with him,” one insider divulged.

“When Todd got back from one of his trips, Sarah told him that she had begun to have feelings for Brad.”

The allegations date back to 1996, which is 12 years ago. If any of this is true Sarah, and if it is pertinent to the Presidential election Sarah will admit the affair. Honesty and trust are important. Remember all the affairs Bill Clinton denied and lied about, even while he was President, and how he got sued for sexual harassment, lost, and had to pay almost a million dollars, all while serving two terms as President? With all of Bill’s cheating, a 12 year-old cheating allegation is hardly worth even considering. If the allegation has any merit, it just proves once again that Sarah is just like the rest of us … human.
