BREAKING NEWS
Gov. Sarah Palin to resign her office
Updated: July 3, 2009 01:24 PM
Gov. Sarah Palin will resign her office in a few weeks, she said during a news conference at her home Friday morning. Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell will be inaugurated at the Governor’s Picnic at the end of the month.

Not a big secret, nor a surprise. Why else would she be under constant attack?

[NormsRevenge]

so now she runs for the Senate in 2010.. right? and then ... who knows..

[Jeb21]

Some RATS at MSNBC opined that she should get more experience as a Governor before making a decision on running for President.

They had no idea how stupid they looked.

[sybilll]

She needs to become a community organizer, so she can be more electable?

[cripplecreek]

I want to take this time to announce that I’m not voting for Romney.

[RegulatorCountry]

There’s nothing positive that would be reported in the MSM about Sarah Palin, regardless of her course of action. If she actually has decided to not seek reelection as Governor, that’ll be spun, too. Fear of looming charges, no end to the complete bs.

[SpaceBar]

Maybe she’s tired of being called every name under the sun expect a child of God by a media straight out of Nazi Germany.

[spectre]

OMG...this is awful.

[KoRn]

A governor that runs for president needs to be reelected as governor, unless they are from Virginia. lol

[pollywog]

Senator Palin?????That will be a start !!! Then PRESIDENT PALIN!

[bereanway]

She’s just wrapped up the TransCanada pipeline deal with Exxon-Mobil which everyone said was dead and will do more for our energy security than Obama could in 20 years.

The timing is very good as this will allow her to devote all of her energies to putting her team together for 2012 without the constant wailing that it’s being done on Alaska’s dime. Gets rid of the APPEARANCE of potential conflicts of interest which is an angle the libtards would hit very hard. There are a lot of other things she can do to burnish up her resume that wouldn’t place the limits on her that a governorship would.

[hoosier hick]

That frees her up to campaign in the lower 48 next year, fund-raising for Congressional candidates without the constant “ethics” crap drummed up in Alaska...

Lisa Murkowski is up for reelection next year. She is described as a “moderate Republican” (translation: liberal).

[dfwgator]

“You won’t have Palin to kick around anymore.”

[Allegra]

I want to take this time to announce that I’m not voting for Romney.

I second that.

Wrong move. W ran for re-election as Texas governor amid Democrat squeals of protest that he was just setting up for a run at the Presidency.
Intelligent minds prevailed as they knew the Demos were just trying to prevent W not just from getting re-elected (thereby proving his popularity), but also in the hope that he would fade away and be gone from the public's mind come 2000.

Faux noise wants Crist, Pawlenty, Steele, Ridge, or Giuliani to carry on the McBush RINO flame(out).
