P.S. On Stuart Varney’s program, Sarah Palin’s brother said the following (which was why Varney was talking about the resignation being because of pressures):
“Brother says pressure of baseless ethics complaints and relentless defense of her persona takes 80% of her time. Not fair to family.”
Yes, it took time away from her being able to properly do her job. She said as much herself. And she probably spent a lot of time on it when she was away from the office. I don't believe she cracked under the pressure, an idea some like Varney would push. She'd already won against all the complaints, so why would she be running from the pressure? The problem is that there would be no end to the ethics complaints, and she'd never be able to attend to her daily duties while fighting them. They hired her to be a Governor and run the State, not to have to spend most of her time preparing a defense against frivolous complaints from low-lifes.
