Here is a great website from a group of Wasilla residents setting the record straight on Sarah Palin, mostly on her claims of being a Fiscal Conservative.
Wasilla Project
They have some great videos, including interviews with city council members, copies of press releases showing unprecedented spending, etc.
I will include the videos individually soon.

Wasilla Resident Speaks Out
A Wasilla resident who has know Sarah Palin since 1992 checks the facts of her acceptance speech.
Read it, pass it on:
A Wasilla resident speaks out about Sarah Palin
A Few Highlights:
Palin claims she lowered taxes, but really only lowered them for big businesses, actually raised taxes for city residents.
Palin claims she opposed the "Bridge to Nowhere", but actually fought hard for that earmark, and only opposed it after the bridge was ridiculed by the media.
She claims she balanced the budget, but as Mayor she started with a city with zero debt and raised taxes and took out $22 million in bonds to pay for pet projects the city didn't need. She actually increased city expenditures by 33%.
She increased a regressive sales tax that included food.
