“Just heard Bill Kristol say that Sarah Palin may be crazy like a fox, and could be a shrewd decision. I tend to agree.”
I also agree. They’ve put a lot of effort into discrediting her, and from all appearances they were getting ready to put her through the beltway shredder and end it once and for all. By the time they finished, there wouldn’t be anything to launch a presidential run from. She just outsmarted them.
It’s a very smart move. She will no longer have to spend time, money, and energy fighting the evil corrupt Demo pols in Alaska.
Now she can focus on the future.
Obama started his campaign in early 2007. It takes a whole two years now to mount a successful Presidential campaign.
Sarah has good advisors. She is shrewd and tough. Her resignation speech today sounded like a shot over the bow to initiate her Presidential campaign.
Right, there is all kinds of time to accomplish other things. She can write her book, unencumbered by being a sitting governor. She can travel the country rallying support, raising funds, campaigning for other conservatives. Even now, every time she opens her mouth, the news will be there to record it.
And her Lt Governor now has time to adjust to the job and win the seat in the next election.
Just a few thoughts.
