I smell fear.

Palin CAN take the GOP nomination.

As for the oft mentioned rap about leaving the governorship in Alaska — she wasn’t quitting, she was being a tactical commander.

Why (if only to appease those who say you’ll be labeled a “quitter”) stand your ground when you know your enemy has the advantage there, that they have no honor and that they are intent on driving you into the dirt?

You regroup and fight on the battlefield of your own choosing. As she is doing.

CW, agreed on to why she did it ( resign) , but I was struck by my gut feel the day it happened and how enlightened and elated I felt, It wasn't sad, I just knew she was up to something big. In her words, it wasn't a retreat but a reload...

Name anyone that has gained so much by that decision. 2 book deals, a Documentary deal, campaigning for mid terms, fox news deal, Speaking fees deal, ability to travel etc.... Yeah pretty much brilliant move. That is what I love about her. The press keeps scowling and she keeps taking ground. Love it.

Compared to the seldom- mentioned fact that BH resigned as US Senator.
