Default Goodbye, Sarah Palin

Palin will be resigning on July 26th.
http://tinyurl.com/lm4t3f


My thoughts?
A) Thank God.
B) Will she support me since I'm for the American way?
C) She's not even sticking with being governor, good thing she wasn't elected as VP.

Yeah, me too.
I wonder if it was of her free will, or she was somehow forced to..
I don't know, I could only speculate.

Hehe...you think she's hot. She pulls a face sometimes like she's had a rod stuck up her arse. Although one of my friends thinks she is very much a yummy mummy!

Oh NO! She was the only hope for getting the U.S.A. back on track.
What fools you all were for mocking her! You drove away the bulldog.

This is such a tragedy.
I will miss her intelligent interview answers most of all.

My thoughts is that she's resigning to start aiming for the 2012 Republican Nomination.

She had the highest approval rating of any governor in the country - I wonder why she's resigning.

She's obviously resigning to concentrate on a Presidential run in 2012. Why else would she leave?

Edit: it's also a great idea because then she won't be in public office for a few years where she could make countless moronic mistakes.

Good lord...Could she have rambled on any more in her resignation speech? Gave me a headache.

She is clearly aiming for a run for president in 2012. Still, it's a strange move to resign before her term is up. A couple possible reasons:

1) For the reasons explained in her speech, she thinks this is a good publicity stunt.
2) Her approval ratings are plunging now that gas prices are down and she can't afford to bribe Alaskans with a check from the state. She was down to 54% approval in May, while her high was 93% in 2007.
3) She wants to get a really early start on her 2012 campaign.

There's no way that she could win in 2012. Few liked her, and even more dislike her now. It seems like she just got tired of running Alaska, so she resigned.

Yep. This kills what chance she had at winning it. Quitting half-way through her term won't sit well with a lot of people.
