When will people like you stop calling Sarah a quitter. She was driven from office by so-called ethics violations. In Alaska ,elected officials have to defend themselves against such charges at their own expense.

With 25 such charges, at twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000.00) each she was approaching a half million dollars. The Palins were comfortable, but not rich. These charges were bankrupting them, threatening a lifetime of hard work.They were also taking up most of her time, making her unable to run the State.

As an aside, they also cost the State a whopping $2.1 MILLION dollars. She knew that these scurrilous Charges would continue, the State would be left leaderless and the Palins would be bankrupt.

She also knew she could make a lot of money writing a book and thwart the enemy by resigning, She also put a leader back at the helm.

BTW All the ethics charges, save one minor one were proven false. The one was over failing to pay full airfare on her daughter, Piper.

Since then, she has made a small fortune writing books and driving the Liberal Demonrats crazy. You go, Sarah.

“When will people like you stop calling Sarah a quitter.”

I’ll stop calling her a quitter when the disciples of the church of Saint Sarah stop worshiping her and the over hyped gas bag actually does something like run for something.

Sarah is a decent enough person but like all people has plenty of faults too. She is not the second coming and she will not save the country.

And despite a loyal worshipping following that wanted her to run for president, she quit before she even started on that quest in 2012.
