It was an interesting story if you imagined Jonny Lee Miller from the 1995 flick “Hackers” cracking Sarah Palin’s e-mail account last week.

Instead, the glory goes to a bored college kid who GUESSED a password reset question in order to gain access to Palin’s Yahoo! account.
The question that gained him access to her email account?
“Where did you meet your husband?”
Of course, half the blogosphere is jammed to it’s gills with Palin information. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to Google the question and get the answer (The answer is high school, btw).
The twist in the story is that the college kid who’s suspected of accessing her Yahoo! account is the son of Democratic state representative Mike Kernell.
Now it all makes sense! If you’ll allow me to quote myself from last weeks posts announcing the hack:
Things I immediately noticed from the screen shot sent by the hacker: they use Firefox, AIM, and Windows Messenger. Oh… and apparently there’s a paintball video playing on YouTube.
All the makings of a bored, rich, white, politicians son. Can I call them, or what?
