Palin PING!
Anyone on or off the Palin ping, write me.
interesting. Guy on FNC say shrewed gamble in that she can plan for Presidential bid. Very surprising stuff.
I just hope all is well with her and this gier her a better opportunity to compete with 0. She is such a hero to me - as a woman, and as a conservative.
Bill Kristol just said it was a very bold gamble, but something he thinks will work out in her favor.
COUNT ME IN!
I hope this is for the best...and that it is not the final chapter.
The personal attacks and the ethics complaints were consuming 80% of her and her staff’s time.
She was already determined not to run again in 2010.
But according to her statement, she sees a greater need, both for Alaska and for the country, to speak out on important issues.
She told Alaskans she will not be a lame duck, doing the travel thing on the state’s dime. She went through a list of all of her accomplishments. She said she and her husband are fishermen, and only dead fish go with the flow.
She will not go with the easy way out.
She is resigning and poutting the state in capable hands.
But she is still going to fight.
She is going all in, with no distractions.
Her demeanor was not one of defeat, or resignation, but positive, and of of sureness of her purpose.
Her critics may have one a battle, but she is going to war, in my opinion. She will not be silent, and she will be free to speak her mind.
AND SHE SAID IT ALL WITHOUT A TELEPROMPTER!
The political landscape shifted this afternnoon, in ways we will not know clearly for awhile.
Sarah has a rendevous with destiny.
And I cast my lot with her.
