dude, no kidding! Is there even precedent for this? Have other governors in history just randomly resigned before the end of their term without some scandal forcing them out? What the F is wrong with this insane woman? Governors don't just resign! The insanity just goes on and on...

"I don't see how her husband can keep from kicking a bunch of liberal a$$."
Reply
He'll be too busy running his snowmobile races and sleeping with his dogs and other 'manly men' in their tents. What happens in the Idetarod stays in the Idetarod (I know.. I know -- it's a dogsled race, not a snowmobile race).-

"She said in her statement that she tired of the continuing attacks."
Reply
She also said :"Once I decided not to run for re-election, I also felt that to embrace the conventional Lame Duck status in this particular climate would just be another dose of politics as usual, something I campaigned against and will always oppose," Palin said in a statement released by her office.
Wouldn't it have been easier to just say "I'm willing to surrender and run away because I'm too much of a coward to take on difficult times and difficult circumstances" ?-

Yeah, the attacks on her family and phony ethic charges had nothing to do with it and $500,000 of personal money to prove they were bogus. The left should be very proud of their actions. All they need now are brown shirts and maybe a "night of the long knives."

"The accusations made news, but with another dismissal of an ethics charge last week against Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the former Republican vice-presidential nominee has quietly been cleared of every ethics complaint filed since the torrent of allegations began in 2008."

Just Bulls!t charges brought by the slimy left.-

Wrong.

"Sarah Palin did cooperate with an investigation in the firing of Walt Monegan. It was rumored that Monegan was fired by Palin as a direct re**** of his refusal to fire Palin’s brother-in-law. This is false. This is what lack of insight and poor journalism would have you believe. That’s why the Trib is piled in unsold mush on the convenience store floor."
"In December of 2007, when it’s cold in Alaska, Monagan had a press conference with Hollis French, the same guy trying to push ethics violations against Palin. The good ole boys network has been pushing hard to get her out. Monagan, in this press conference, circumvented (bipassed, went around, ignored) Palin’s own reform plan. Nearly two months later, this duo held yet another press conference to announce their own budget, increasing the funds for their department above what the governor, Palin, had allowed. Monagan was fired for insubordination. He was not fired for not firing a state trooper that tasered a young boy and threatened the governor’s father with death. He was fired for going around the governor’s back to pass his own agenda. Palin broke up the good ole boys network in Alaska, and the boys tried to throw punches. "

even Allahpundit thinks her career is over: "Placing your ambition over your commitment to the state looks shady, especially for someone who won’t have a single full term as governor under her belt for the primaries." http://hotair.com/archives/2009/07/03/breaking-pal...

By the way, this story should be re-titled something like:
Reply
'BREAKING!!!: Sarah Palin Abandons the Citizens of Alaska in a Panic After She Breaks a Nail and Gets a Run in Her Nylons'
Palin:
"Hey, ya know...gee...wow... I never expected even to have to manage my state under less than Ideal economic conditions. And I talked even to God and I asked Him if I should get outta this job and He said 'Hell yeah'. So, ya know...I thought about it more. Then I prayed about it. Then I thought about it with Todd. And then Todd prayed about it. And then Todd and I prayed together even. So...ya know. There was a lotta thinkin and prayin and stuff that went into my decision. But I knew I was makin the right decision. You betcha..." When asked why she was cutting and running out on the people of Alaska, Palin winked and then chirped "Gosh...well, ya know...gee...This governing stuff is reeeaally inconvenient."

"I'm not so sure. Slate. It depends on whether there is a scandal pushing this. and I really don't think there is."
Reply
--LOL...It's funny that cons aren't even willing to admit a scandal is going on when they're right in the middle of one.-

Sarah Palin does very well for herself. there is not one amongst us who could have done a better job.
She stood tall and strong against the media machine and the apathetic who bought the crap coming from the media.-

I wouldn't be surprised if she decides to run for public office again.
Reply
There have been many 'come-backs' in politics.
But if history is any guide - she will find a very lucrative career as a talking head for FOX.
She's definitely looks good on camera, is photogenic.
