I was one who cheered when she resigned.
A few political enemies were intent on bankrupting her and her family. They were well on their way when she pulled the rug out from under them.
She was so busy defending herself against these frivolous charges, she could not keep up with her duties as Governor. That left her with the only logical option; Resign!! That left her opponents scrambling around looking for something to do.
It also left her free to earn the money to save what they had spent a lifetime accumulating.
I realize that some who suffer from severe PDS, along with those who just don't like women, are never going to accept this move for what it is, a BRILLIANT political move.
" What so BRILLIANT about losing to Obama then going back to Alaska to quit on your state? When did celebrating failure become honorable?
Very happy to read your post, well stated. It was also a very selfless move, something a true public servant would do. Most politicians would hold on to their power with their last political gasp, no matter how much harm it does to those who they pretend to serve. Our country would be very fortunate to have a president with the integrity of Sarah Palin
