To see whether this was really a savvy political move, just take the names of every freeper who is saying it was, and look at all their posts over the last 6 months.

If you find a SINGLE FREEPER who supporter Sarah who ever said the smart thing for her to do was resign, post it. I haven’t found one person yet who said Sarah should resign to help her political career.

On the contrary, there has been LOTS of posts about how she wasn’t a quitter, and how great it was that she wouldn’t back down while being attacked. About how much better she’d be in 2012 having served an entire term as Governor, and how she’d show how to get a state through the Obama depression.

Now of course, many Freepers are blindly screaming that this was a great idea, and that anybody who thinks otherwise is a RINO traitor.

But none of them called for her to resign on Thursday.

If we didn’t know she had already resigned, and someone posted a thread saying “If Sarah is serious, she would Resign”, I’m sure these same people would be out in force trying to get the freeper banned for his absurd suggestion.

But the drowning will grasp at anything.

who am I with my own job to give SP advice? i presume many other SP supporters don’t think she needs their advice

good night, she’s her own woman. what she is doing is different but given the Swamp of AK politics, she probably has done all she can do there if in fact there is no way to stop the BS ankle-biting.

And actually, I will LOVE it if she comes to the lower 48, campaigns, give speeches, and helps good candidates.
I hope she runs for pres some day but even if not, she will be a HUGH help for us conservatives here in the lower 48?

doesnt that excite you as a conservative looking at breaking DU control?

On the other hand let’s see what the people of Alska say that voted for her and see if they understand her speech, her reasoning, the basketball references, and so on, hmmmm???

Sheesh, when the Germans bombed Peal Harbor we didn’t quit did we? HELL NO!

Sorry, you lose. You can search my name and find it if you wish.

I said, clearly, that she needed to 1)resign and get out of Alaska to campaign for 2010 Congressional races and 2) build a national organization.

I think you are entirely missing the point. There is a huge difference between having or being forced to resign and resigning for other reasons. You can see that I hope.

And what the hell is with this crap saying we FReepers who support Gov. Palin......in your words are “blindly screaming” that this was a good move.?

Lets all get out in mass tomorrow for our 4th of July Tea Parties.

I think it would be interesting to do the same with all the FReepers who reject Palin to see what their stands have been on Mitt Romney. I bet that the majority of Palin doubters -- by the way, isn't Duane Patterson the guy affiliated with Hugh Hewitt, who lost so much of his talk show audience during the primaries when he became an embarassing shill for Romney? -- are Romney supporters, the Romney whose every "conservative" solution calls for more, bigger, heavier-handed government.
