What Do You Think of Palin's Resignation?
Outgoing Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin on Saturday laid the groundwork to take on a larger, national role after leaving state government, citing a "higher calling" with the aim of uniting the country along conservative lines. A day after surprising even her closest friends by announcing she would step down as Alaska governor more than a year before her term was up, the controversial hockey mom was still keeping details of her future plans under wrap.

The loons don't use facts. They just spew lies and nonsense. Just go back through the pages and read the idiocy.
CzarsRUs
Why let a few inconvenient facts get in the way of a perfectly good propoganda onslaught?? That is not the liberal way.
CzarsRUs
Well...I have to admit you libs sure got it going on. The billboard making fun of her Downs baby was a stroke of genius. Liberals must be bursting with pride today.
mersey
When you have no morals, you have no shame.
puckerup America
This is hilarious. Liberals can't fathom someone doing the right thing. Instead, they take credit for running her off with their name calling! You nanny-nanny-boo-boos are funny!
Anti-Lobbyist
My understanding is she quit every job she's had--councilperson, mayor, and now Governor. Those that say they would vote for her again, may want to remember that. Hate to think she'd do that as President
PATRIOT UPRISING
Let's all pray that neither Biden or Pelosi get to move up the corporate ladder either.

Sarah Palin was first elected to a seat on the Wasilla City Council in October of 1992 and was reelected in 1995. In 1996, she ran for and won the Office of Mayor and was reelected in 1999. She concluded her public service as Mayor in 2002 and was unable to run again due to term limits.
Why spew??? Check out some facts once in awhile. It's good to read!!

I don't get it...is that supposed to be a joke?

Sarah Palin did the absolute right thing, both for her and for Alaska.
She stepped down to give Alaska a "full time" Governor again.
She freed up her time to go on the lecture circuit, maybe write a book, guest host a Fox News show or two, etc. Any or all of which will replenish her coffers.
When 2011 comes around, she will be in a strong position to start her campaign (if that really is her game-plan).
If she does campaign, I doubt very much that she'd accept the VP slot should she not get the nomination. Once is enough for anyone.
She either wins the nomination, or she will 'fade away.'

Palin needs to start a new party "The Common Sense Party" ! The Republicans wont stand and fight for her as the Liberals continue to attack her.
The Libs cant leave her alone. Why are they are so afraid of Palin? Because she is a real American not a suit from the beltway. America needs to rally around Palin and others with Common Sense to take our country back.
WJC
We aren't at all afraid of Palin. The people said they didn't want her as a vice-president, so why would they elect her President? No losing vice-presidential candidate in the television age has later been elected President. So I'm not concerned and actually hoping she will run.
Crook
Before she can start a party called “Common Sense” she has to get some. That’s like Burger King not having burgers. “Common Sense” would have told her that qui-, I mean, resigning for whatever reason is political suicide. If it wasn’t blackmail, then why would she do this?
PATRIOT UPRISING
Ya, as a dem you can ask a cripple to stand and be recognized, as Biden did, and not be fired.
Taint
If it's the "Common Sense Party" how will Palin be in it?!
UNION BREAKER
Is your Momma's name Palin too?

If there's a common sense party you won't be allowed to vote.

Yep--Pitiful Palin, not Pity Palin.
puckerup America
I would say she is definitely honoring her commitment to conservatism. The cost to her state is now at 2million over those lawsuits, and she refuses to let it escalate any higher. Good for her. Did Keith mention any of that? Aw shucks. Now you know.
mersey
I still don't know who Keith is. Is he the man behind the curtain?

Loved her final quote...Per Gen. MacArthur, "We are not retreating, we are advancing in the other direction". DeMInt/Palin 2012.

Every politician gets heat. She sure isn't Presidential material.

The mean liberals were picking on her and calling her names like Caribou Barbie. No politician can take this kind of abuse!

Nice of her to go after the gold and not honor her commitment

A politician giving up the seat because frivolous lawsuits are taking too much time and costing the state too much money. Imagine that?

I used to watch MSNBC but I was so sick of their commentators and newscasters. I can't believe we have adults on television that are allowed to rant and rave and make fun of people like they do. Do these same people allow their children to talk about and make fun of people? I would hope NOT!! Such good, moral examples they are.
j846860j
i will vote for her as the next president of the united states...But hey Palin if your reading this Pick Mitt Romney as your running mate...thre is a ticket!..i would say Huckabee but their styles are so different...Palin/Romney 2012
birdsjd
I'd like to see Palin run, but I think 2012 is a little early for her. She still quite young and I'd like to see some more experience . . . just so we, as a voting public, can see exactly how she stands/votes on issues. Maybe a house or senate run, or even sit on the President's cabinet?
Mathias
WE WILL VOTE FOR HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you think the billboard making fun of her handicapped son had anything to do with it???

I think she's sending a message that everything starts at home, from values to hard work. Even though with Bristol's teen pregnancy, her family showed that they are there to still support her. It is the parent's responsibility to teach their children values and hard work not the governments, school or anything else. It is also the parent's responsibility to be there for their children during issues like Bristol's. Remember folks it all starts in the household.
