ANCHORAGE, Alaska | Brushing aside the criticisms of pundits and politicos, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she plans to jump immediately back into the national political fray stumping for conservative issues and even Democrats after she prematurely vacates her elected post at month's end.
The former Republican vice-presidential nominee and heroine to much of the GOP's base said in an interview she views the electorate as embattled and fatigued by nonstop partisanship, and she is eager to campaign for Republicans, independents and even Democrats who share her values on limited government, strong defense and "energy independence."
"I will go around the country on behalf of candidates who believe in the right things, regardless of their party label or affiliation," she said over lunch in her downtown office, 40 miles from her now-famous hometown of Wasilla population 7,000 where she began her political career.

Party before Principle?
I can't wait 'til she heads our way down here in the lower 48.
“Even dealing with the political maelstrom she unleashed, Mrs. Palin flashed the down-home, personal touch that even critics say helped her forge an extraordinary bond with supporters on the campaign trail.
When a photographer prepared to take pictures of the interview, Mrs. Palin, wearing open-toed shoes, said laughingly, “Don’t get my toes in the picture they are green on the bottom.”
Indeed they were. She said the marks were grass stains she had got from her mowing her lawn the previous day.”
Hehehe. Man with the political world in a tizzy with her resignation, identifying the whitehouse in organizing dissent in Alaska, stating she will support all conservatives whatever their party affiliation, and she’s has been fishing and mowing the lawn.
She's playing these idiots...LOL. She learns fast.
'Course she needs to keep the lawn looking nice. It's the future Western White House:
WTFH?
There is no such thing Sarah.
This better just be talk. If it is it’s bizarre and ill-advised talk, especially since those fake-conservative democrats do want your ‘help’.
Part of Ginrich’s lets back “conservative-to-moderate” rats in districts we “can’t win” plan? Our limited time, money and efforts are best spent elsewhere.
There are no conservative Blue Dog Democrats in Congress. None!!
Post #666 ? Ooooh, you da debbil !
It’s a conservative site.
But there are NO CONSERVATIVE DEMOCRATS ANY LONGER. The small handful of semi-conservative democrats (who are all worse than the average Republican we call RINO) only serve to enable their leftist leadership. Any conservatism on their part is ruse to get votes in their conservative districts.
This isn’t 1955.
I’m not voting for Mitt Romney. Now go play somewhere else.
Me? No! The devil is either Obama or my dad, according to my mom.
Um? I @#$%ing hate Mitt Romney. What’s your problem? Did I say anything about Mitt Romney? Why the hell do you assume I’m a supporter of Mitt Romney cause I don’t want Palin to endorse scumball fake conservative democrats. That RINO scum Romney can go to hell.
And he can take “conservative” democrat Congressman like Lincoln Davis and Gene Taylor with him.
Just because you make a comment critical of something Sarah Palin says does not make you a supporter of leftist RINO turd Myth Romney.
Don’t ASS U ME.
Ask my well known Romney hating friends what I think of Romney “Cripplecreek”.
Yeah sure whatever.
Look at my past posts. Find one where I praise Romney. I loathe him.
Just gotta praise everything Palin does or else you're "the enemy" huh?
YEAH SURE WHATEVER.
I don’t care enough about what you have to say to waste time looking at your posting history but it sure is fun watching you get all worked up over it.
Okay, look, both of you are perfectly fine conservatives, and last I checked, Impy is not a Romneybot.
Take it from the #1 opponent of Slick Willard on FR, he’s not a bot.
When people make knee-jerk reaction posts about me it pisses me off. I’m quick to anger.
If Palin keeps doing weird things like resigning mid-term and saying she might endorse some democrats you better get use to criticism of her from lots of people and they won’t be Myth Romney supporters but conservatives.
This is probably just talk. Palin will be as independent as Bernie Sanders and Joe Lieberman are. Voters like candidates who are not overly partisan. Mark Kirk, Crist, Bloomberg, and McCain like call themselves post partisan Republicans. Mayor Daley likes to put up a show about him bringing independents, GOP, and Dems together to make Chicago great.
I really doubt any Dem candidate will want to be seen with Palin. The Kos Crazies will go after any Dem who is on friendly terms with Palin.
