I’m sorry but you must be spectacularly un-informed if you still don’t know or understand the reasons for Governor Palin’s resignation in July. Two things may help:

1. Read her book - it’s very good & explains her reasons; or alternatively;
2. Try this link to an earlier Thread here on FR which addressed the resignation & generated 150+ responses.

Why would I read her book?

Anything that would be put in that book would be designed to make her come off as good as possible. If she did quit because the fire got too hot (my contention) she sure as hell is not going to admit it in her book called “Going Rogue” in which she presumably tries to portray herself as some kind of populist maverick.

I know that Bob Riley never resigned. Haley Barbour never resigned when his own numbers were around 30% and he was facing the worst budget crisis in Mississippi history. I do wonder if people would be this gaga over her if she was a middle aged white man and not a reasonably attractive young woman.

It’s an honest question. If Obama had been a middle aged white man he wouldn’t have been let near the White House. As someone who was black, well-spoken, and relatively young he was able to tap into that huge white guilt vote. What would we be saying about Palin if she were Sam Palin and not Sarah Palin? What would we be saying about her if she looked like Hillary Clinton and not like someone who could be on desperate housewifes?

AC is someone who is most comfortable in her ignorance.

It’s better not to trouble them. In fact, the Bible cautions us on the matter.
