Nothing for nothing, but she is a potential Presidential candidate. I

as unusual as resigning in mid-term.

Did you have a problem when Obama quit being a Senator to run for
President? I mean, just because he didn't make an honest announcement,
doesn't mean he kept the job..

Hey, I don't have a problem with Palin stepping down, but then, I'm not
an Alaskan, nor did I vote for her. We did have a Governor step down
recently, McGreevey, and while the circumstances were different, I
wouldn't expect him to be able to win a race for local dogcatcher. There
is an issue of public trust. McGreevey broke it, and Palin? It's for
the public to decide, but I would say she did.

She's not running for another office, she's running away from a
contract she signed with the state of Alaska to do a job until it was
finished.

She's a quitter in addition to being an incompetent ignoramus.

I imagine she was simply driven from office by frivolous law suits and
unfounded charges. I hear she is a half million in debt from the legal
bills.

Maybe she shouldn't have put herself in that position. Taking per
diems for living at home? Putting your kid's travel expenses on the
state? Pressuring the head of the state police to fire a relative
who'd already answered to charges and been disciplined?

She brought these things on herself.
