There may be absolutely nothing to this, but the timing is certainly interesting and some may find it suggestive. Richter tried to have the records sealed right after the story broke. View the records showing court motions.

Would those divorce records contain transcripts where his wife accuses him of cheating with Sarah Palin and he admits to it?

It's amazing how fast all sorts of documents are disappearing from the Public Eye in reference to Sarah Palin.

Nothing to hide there, huh.

  With Barry's penchant for unsealing court records in order to smear opponents and win elections, I'm sure the DNC "rapid response team" is on the case.
  
  Rest assured, the DuNCe team has plenty of motivation what with Biden's plagiaristic past and wonderful foot-in-mouth sound bytes proliferating on the Web.

    McCain's plagiarism from Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's 1973 The Gulag Archipelago ,which told the heart rending story of a fellow prisonor giving him a sign from God by drawing a cross in the dirt with a shovel is worse than plagiarism.. Especially when told to a preacher in front of a Christian audiance. He knew this book, quoted this book, and never mentioned this incident until that forum. He is a phony and a liar and trading in on his prison experience . No wonder there is no more straight talk express, or open town hall meetings...he can't stand up to the questioning that would expose him as the phony he is. Harry Truman said it best, "Any body who calls you my friend, is NOT your friend."

      McCain didn't plagiarize that story, Lies told again. McCain told a very slightly similar story that likely was true in its own right! Just cause one person draws a cross in the sand doesn't mean some other person couldn't have drawn a cross in the sand. McCain's individual may well have even read the original author and thought it would be neat to do it also! Show me proof of plagiarism or SHUT up. There is PROOF on Biden on 2 different accounts! There is none on McCain. If you said you drove your car to Kmart and wrote about it. Then someone else says that I drove my car to Kmart doesn't make that someone a plagiarist in the least. but if you call that other person a plagiarist that very well could make you a LIAR!
      
      And, the reason for no more Town Hall's- Ask Barry about that because it was Barry who turned down the offers to do town halls!!!!!!!!!!
      On top of that McCain had his speech platform at the RNC specifically designed to represent a "Town Hall" format and that was just 2 days ago WHICH CLEARLY shows he is still into Town Halls - only if Barry was also- but we know who really is scared of them DON'T WE!!!!!

      from fact check.org
      
      Did John McCain steal this story?
      A:
      
      There's no such story in "Archipelago." There is a somewhat similar story attributed to Solzhenitsyn, which we've traced back to Rev. Billy Graham by way of former Richard Nixon aide Charles Colson. But that's not proof that McCain's story isn't true.
      
      The stories aren't exactly the same. In McCain's telling, a Vietnamese prison guard shows him kindness one night by secretly loosening his cruelly tight bonds, then draws a cross in the sand with his foot to indicate that he is a fellow Christian. In the various versions attributed to Solzhenitsyn, the cross is drawn by a fellow prisoner, not a guard, and with a stick, not his foot. The story certainly does not appear in the place that some of McCain's detractors are suggesting that he got it.
      
      Solzhenitsyn's "Archipelago" was originally published in 1973 — the same year McCain returned from Vietnam. But "The Gulag Archipelago" contains no such story. We searched all three volumes of the work through an online version for several key words, and we found nothing remotely similar. It's just not there.
      
      Just to be safe, we also checked the author's novel, "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovitch." It's not there, either.
      
      But we see no evidence that McCain pilfered the quote. The two stories are markedly different, for one thing. In one version, it's a fellow prisoner drawing with a stick; in the other, it's a kindly guard drawing a cross with his foot.
      
      Furthermore, in Graham's version, Solzhenitsyn was contemplating suicide at the time. McCain says in his book that he did consider suicide while a prisoner, but that was on an entirely different occasion when he had been beaten for days and was about to sign a false confession to end his torture. It had nothing to do with the cross-in-the-sand story.
      
      We asked the McCain campaign about the accusation, and a spokesman pointed us to a campaign blog entry with quotes attributed to Bud Day, a close friend of McCain. Day said that McCain told him the story prior to the publication of "Faith of My Fathers":
      
      McCain Report: ...[Day] did confirm that "not long after we all got back together [in the camp]," McCain told him the story of the prison guard who drew a cross in the dirt one Christmas.

    Why does the candidates for the republican party have a need to HIDE their past? That's the question you should be asking yourself, not WHY we need to know.

    There should be nothing wrong with opening divorce records, afterall; it's public information. I've yet to meet a squeaky clean person. I wonder what one would be like if they did exist? Ah, yes, a new born baby.

      Scott Alan Richter is not running for any office and the DNC is trying to get into his personal divorce records? Now this is somthing that should scare the Crap out of everyone of us if this is an example of how the Democrat(ic)s are going to run government. That being the actions they are taking of prying into the personal records of everyone linked to a person they do not like. Even if the information is based on rumors and innuendo.

      As Harvard College continues to flounder in the mires of grade inflation, we applaud the Law School for setting stricter limits on the number of students who graduate with honors.
      
      Currently, 70 percent of graduating law students achieve the minimum grade point average to receive a cu*m laude degree. With that ridiculous fact staring them in the face, Law School faculty members overwhelmingly voted to bestow honors upon only 40 percent of the graduating class.

  why would anyone be interested in looking into Scott Alan Richter's private matters unless there's was someone famous involved?
  
  if sarah palin wasn't involved, the best thing he could do is make his records public. if there's no story there, no one will care and it will be over.
  
  but sealing his records has only made everyone more curious.
  
  and it gives the appearance of a cover up.

  This statement is an insult to Republican and conservative voters. Are you saying that they will line up like Stepford Voters regardless of how black-hearted a candidate might turn out to be just because there is an "R" after his or her name? Are you suggesting that if it would turn out we all discover that Palin and/or McCain have lied or tried to coverup public information - whether divorce records or state trooper files or lobbying efforts for earmarks - to save their political necks and ambitions that conservatives aren't smart and moral enough to rethink that support?
  
  That's not just insulting to Republicans, that's insulting to all Americans.

I use to take offense when less than bright people slamed my country,my christian faith, and me and my countrymen.Today as I watch,and listen to these twerps I realise,not all children are raised to be american citizens it takes everything to make a world.I've seen what the left has done in many parts of the world, and it not pretty.In South Korea I saw little children with their little feet wrapped in rags in weather so cold your breath would freeze.They were driven from their homes,because they too wouldn't give up their love of country,their faith in god, and wouldn't be reduced from Korean citizens, to comrades.So you take your left wing ideology to the voting booth on Nov.4 Maybe your new owner will win.Then you will no longer be an individual,but just one of a group of comrades.You will hear a lot less about country,and faith
