REPORT: FATHER OF PALIN EMAIL HACKER IS A TENNESSEE DEM. STATE REP.

From Gateway Pundit:

Now there's this...

Wired.com has the latest on the Palin scandal:

...The story was briefly posted Wednesday to the 4chan forum where the hack first surfaced. Bloggers have connected the handle of the poster, "Rubico," to an e-mail address, and tentatively identified the owner as a college student in Tennessee.

Threat Level was unable to reach the student by phone because his number is unlisted. His father, when reached at home, said he could not talk about the matter and would have no comment. The father is a Democratic state representative in Tennessee.

The report continues...

Free Republic is on it.

This is from the comment's section from Michelle's earlier post:

AKGoldRush over at LittleGreenFootballs.com unearthed who rubico is in this thread (it’s not the topic of the thread so just do a search for the name to find the posts in question…but he outs rubico10 in post #873).

rubico10

David Kernell
rubico10@yahoo.com
20
Memphis, TN
amateur chess player
son of democratic state 93rd district senator Mike Kernell (Tennessee)

The password he chose for Palin’s email was popcorn. Get it? Popcorn? Kernell? How very clever of him.

And apparently, someone’s even updated his Wiki page with this info! (It’s been deleted but is still viewable in the history tab).

More on Rubico10=David Kernell HERE.

His Wikipage has had a lot of revisions today.

UPDATE: Daddy's website is gone!

We can't verify any of this at the moment, but don't be surprised if this turns out to be true.
