When was the last time you had to find half a mil to pay for defending yourself against constant ethics charges brought by the other party ? She left the governorship in good hands, and can get a breather with her family. The media has never let up on her. This last bit with Letterman and then VF with info from that snotty Steve Schmidt was too much. They have rendered her governorship useless to AK. She has already accomplished a lot for her state-now it is up to her to choose where to go.
Personally, the way the GOP bigshots have been disdainful and, literally, joined the media and Dems have turned me against them. I am a conservative, and when the Repubs want to join me, they can--til then, I despise McCain, his henchmen, and Mitt Romney's crew just a bit less than Dems.
I think turning off a huge base of Conservative Christians will help Mitt et al lose even bigger than Juan McC--there aren't going to be enough moderates to go around.

That's precisely how I feel.
Frankly I think Sarah Palin made a really smart move.
I saw this post and can’t really take credit for it...but it expresses my thoughts exactly...
Since 15 minutes after her acceptance of the VP candidate slot the Obama campaign went into a paranoic frenzy because she was smarter, more charismatic, more successful, and her constituents loved her...whereas Obama is a dullard, not very smart, limited to parroted teleprompter speeches and statements and hasn’t so much as run a popsicle stand...and he started driving a manure truck down the highway trying to run Sarah Palin into the ground...
The election was lost...
And the manure truck just kept driving down the highway at her...even ran off the roads of the national scene onto the Alaska scene and kept up the frenzy of paranoic smears and law suites, trumped up ethics BS, et al...
If a manure truck is driving at you full speed ahead constantly, are you going to stand there and let it run you over? That would be kind of a dumb move....
The smart thing to do is step aside...let the manure truck keep speeding down the highway until Obama and his communist ideology crashes into an oak tree...then come back and hit him HARD from the flanks...meanwhile, who’s he going to aim is his manure truck at now? He’s null and void!
Smoove move, Sarah...you go!
What are the CBS and ACORN operatives running their comment boards going to amuse themselves with now as they make their $7.68 an hour to post under several different nic names smear campaigns against Palin if she’s not in office?
