Nothing in the story says she promised anything of the sort.
I assume she indicated that should an tough issue arise, she will stick to principles, and risk not being re-elected.

Where did she “pledge” to serve only one term if elected?
To: cripplecreek
with her empty suite resume , like Obama , she would only serve one term as a loser because DC would eat her alive.

Have you always had a hard time reading, the woman is saying she will stick to her principle over party politics even if doing so costs her a second term. A statement of principle and intent is not negotiating.

An actual conservative who hasn’t hopped into bed with RINOs comes along, and FReepers tear her to pieces.
Sigh.

Yes, it is sad that many FReepers attack Gov. Sarah Palin. That's who you meant, right?

Are you going to retract your moronic, obtuse and misleading parenthetical headline addendum?
