Sarah Palin's husband Todd files for divorce because he 'finds it impossible to live together' [View all]

I know it's raw story...but still! Who gets the "snow machines"???

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s husband Todd filed for divorce after 31 years, according to blogger Craig Medred, who discovered the court filings.

His lawyers filed to dissolve the marriage on Friday, saying the couple has “incompatibility of temperament between the parties such that they find it impossible to live together as husband and wife.”

The family has had a slew of legal battles and suffered from scandals since Sen. John McCain’s campaign plucked the former governor out of obscurity to run as his vice president in 2008.

The couple’s eldest son has suffered considerable legal trouble after returning from serving overseas. Their daughter has become impregnated twice outside of the “sanctity” of marriage, while advocating abstinence-only lifestyle outside of marriage.
