Wow. Just...wow. I really hope everything is all right with her and her family.

Very sad and very depressing. I hope that she and her family is okay, no health or well being issues and no ethics issues in waiting. I can think of no other valid reasons for her to quit before finishing her term.

She was my last hope for the Presidency and, in many ways, for the country. She is the only person since Reagan who has made me feel that way, who made me want to donate time and money to them and their campaign.

I wish her and her family well and a long and happy retirement from government and all the attacks she has suffered from her enemies in the media and in the republican and demonrat parties.

I add, may her enemies feel the full effects of their karma and the golden rule ten fold. They went after her and her family with a ruthless viciousness. May it all come back at them. She and her family did not deserve it, but they've earned it.

She'd be a big, big hit with a national talk show -- and a key rallying point to fight being czarred and fettered; i.e., being subjected to the "Fairness Doctrine" and/or forced "diverse" and local programming, a.k.a. sub-prime radio.

It is going to take a lot of money to run against this corrupt administration and all of the stray dogs associated with it. It is also a fact that the majority of people, that are paying attention, don’t like either party very much.

If I didn’t want to represent the Republican Party and I wanted to support or build a strong third party, I certainly would want to remove my association from the GOP. People are fed up in a big way...sick of the criminality of the politicians and the constant attacks coming out of Washington against their lives, liberty and property.

Sara Palin, you are good woman, a Patriot and a true Conservative. I think you and Todd know what is at stake and I know you both know what it is going to take to save this country.

Let the barking dogs and squeaking pigs have at it. The light has changed and they don’t even see it.......

I'm sure she looked at the petty lawsuits that have kept coming since she was named VP candidate, and saw nothing but those in the next two years. I[m sure those must be distracting to her work as Governor, and are certainly causing financial distress to her family. Not being in public office will stop that silliness. She's also putting her Lt. Gov. in the position of incumbent in the next election.

And if she wishes to do so, this frees her up to work on behalf of Congressional candidates in 2010, and by doing so, position herself for a run in 2012

Sarah’s brave decision to leave her job will have a devastating effect on the State Media and the Socialist’s, now they have to start trying, way early, to pick the Republican candidate for president in ‘12 for us.

I am flabberghasted!
