The Daily Beast ^ | 7/3/2009

12. She’s given up on the RINO infested GOP and will start a new party.

[Deb]

The Daily Beast site needs to be swarmed and crashed by Sarah fans.

[AlaninSA]

13. She’s an idiot...and never should have been moved to the national stage.

[BossLady]

"accused her of having narcissistic personality disorder"

No....thats Our Dear Leader's gig.....

[bigbob]

I don’t give a royal Obama what 11 pundits think.

[Always Right]

Freedom to do what she want and not be sued by every group.

[freebilly]

How long you been a dick...?

[aynrandfreak]

I think something along the lines of #7 may ultimately turn out to be what’s going on. Not that she’s guilty, but that something was going to come out to make her look bad.

[Deb]

I'll be standing over here for a bit.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I now wish she had listened to her fellow Americans when we told her not to trust McCain and his ObamaCom, little Stevie Schmidt.

[RightFighter]

13. She knows it will take a billion dollars or more in fundraising to defeat Obama, and she’s getting an early start.

[alarm rider]

Perhaps it's you, you are projecting. Really, uncalled for and beneth contempt.

[Deb]

Exactly. Obama hasn't left enough "narcissistic personality disorder" for anyone else.

This is going to be a real bloodbath as the character assassins make sure she's 100%, completely dead.

Well, I don't think she's planning on running in 2012, or that she can count on it now. The one consistent criticism said of her was that she didn't have enough political experience for the nomination of VP. I don't see how this move can boost her resume or furthers her political experience. I think to be a viable candidate for 2012, she needed to at least finish out her term.

Maybe this decision wasn't actually thought out very well, or maybe the other shoe hasn't dropped.

Theory #12:

IMHO, Sarah is calling this JUST AT THE RIGHT TIME !!!!!

July 26th is right on the button. She would have probably lost her job anyway since that will be right after the Putin leg of the Obamassiah's continuing worldwide "Apology Tour" as I expect him to apologize for the 1867 USA Seward's Folly "cheap" purchase of Alaska, and immediately return it to Putin.

....from a kneeling position, begging forgiveness of course..

[OldDeckHand]

I think it's possible that she is/was close to bankrupting her family with the defense of these unfounded ethics complaints. I've been thinking about this for hours now, and that actually makes the most sense. And, that would be something you couldn't necessarily want to talk about in a news conference. But, if the reports of $500K in debt over these complaints are accurate, that is a lot of money to someone who doesn't even make half that.

I'm not sure what her legal defense fund entails or how large it is, or if one is even allowed in the state of Alaska. Plus, if she is financially strapped, it would make sense for her to get out now and makes some cash for her family, while she's still the hottest commodity around.

[muawiyah]

So what's going to come out? That maybe David Letterman is a pedophile and hired someone to burn down Sarah's church?

What, what, what could possibly top that?

This woman has some very real enemies who are very evil and dangerous. They'll keep going after long after she's out of politics ~ they hate her, they hate her kids, they hate her baby, they hate her snow machines, they hate, hate, .....

Don't count on them even knowing the difference between right and wrong. It's highly unlikely they have anything on anyone.

[Valentine_W]

She shouldn’t have quit the job...she should have fulfilled her commitment to the people of Alaska. She shouldn’t have ran if she didn’t intend to fulfill her term, but maybe there’s something negative that hasn’t come out yet about her or something she’s done. Just my opinion, but this seems really abrupt and a bad decision...so one has to wonder.

[I Hate Obama]

You missed a theory.

I think she resigned because she was so sick of seeing Michael Jackson on the news. She wanted to get a fresh story going.
