Sarah Palin lacks what the GOP needs most
The Republicans need a White House candidate with ideas, steadiness and the ability to unify. That's not Alaska's departing governor.
Doyle McManus July 5, 2009
Is Sarah Palin the answer the Republican Party is looking for?
Not likely. Palin's abrupt announcement that she's quitting as governor of Alaska may be part of a long-term strategy that leads to the Oval Office. But at the moment, it looks more like the impulsive act of a hot-headed politician who can't abide criticism -- poor attributes for anyone who hopes to run for president.
Take Palin at her word: She decided to quit because she didn't think she could get much done for Alaska in her remaining 18 months in office, beset as she was with ethics charges that never seemed to go away.
"My staff and I spend most of our day ... dealing with this stuff instead of progressing our state," she complained.

Oh. My. Gosh.
What stooooopid people...
Completely bass ackwards article title.
No. And that is why The Republican Party is also known as The Stupid Party.
Obviously, conservative ideas are invisible to the author of piece.

Not likely.

The libs are giving advice again. lol
She isn’t dumb enough to take advice from the LA TIMS
Stupid-ass LA Times. No wonder nobody reads that rag. It's not that the charges never seemed to go away, it's that her haters filed endless frivolous charges which drag on for months and years by design.
Good for you, Sarah Palin!
At a time in American history when our liberties are under direct assault, our focus should be on how we can regain our country’s freedoms by understanding, supporting and embracing leaders who possess real character, courage, honesty, and integrity, leaders that put faith, country, and family at the forefront of their daily lives – Leaders like Sarah Palin who because of her outside Washington DC politics position, has seen herself and her family mercilessly attacked by those who do not possess 1/10th of her integrity and character. We respect Sarah for taking this stand. After all, it is most apparent that Sarah’s liberal adversaries are engaging in distractive techniques to prevent her from reaching the battle frontline where she would be a formidable force for the good of this country – these distractive malicious attacks are similar to the devil’s spirit of distraction anytime a servant of the Lord attempts to follow His guidance. Hence, Sarah’s advancement in a new direction is totally understandable under the circumstances and we hope that she will re-emerge in the political arena in the future. God knows this country needs leadership that holds to the values and principles that made this nation the greatest on earth.
The constant bleating of fools. Will it ever end?
And the judge of this idea is a writer for the LA Times, or a judge for the 9th Circuit....hard to tell the difference.
Maybe Doyle Smackmyanus could write a piece on what LATimes really need to prop up its sagging circulation.
The problem for The Republican Party is it has no clue.
Palin does. Just you watch.
Asshole.
Yes she lacks ideas where Government is the answer to running the every day lives of morons. Because they don’t exist.
Let’s see. Smaller, less intrusive government; stronger national security; greater freedom; less corruption; pro-life.
Naah. Those sure don’t sound like “ideas” to me!
It would be great if Sarah could own that company. Seems like defamation on each count per article against them would be great starters.
I know it’s not balls or integrity or courage. Hmmm, what could it be...
