I agree. That's why a politician resigning is hard obstacle to overcome if trying to go for higher office.

Bob Dole resigned from the Senate to concentrate on running for President, and he lost big.

Joe Lieberman ran for both the Senate and Vice-President simultaneously.

Probably some time off to contemplate and ready herself for her next move.

Maybe she’ll take the reins of the RNC and make it a Conservative party again — kick out the damn RINOs!

“All in,” as in she’s totally dedicating herself to saving the country from the illegal alien Communist?

Or “all in,” as in exhausted?

OK. My initial shock has passed and the fear of imminent doom has passed.

This could actually be a brilliant move.

If her plan is to spend 2010 campaigning for die-hard conservatives for the 2010 elections, she could be drawing a line in the sand with the GOP, forcing them back to their roots.

Not only would this rally the conservative base for 2010 and hopefully get enough CONSERVATIVES in the houses to slow down this train wreck we are witnessing, it would give her the networking, the campaigning, and the exposure she needs to run — AND WIN — in 2012.

This could be part of a brilliant strategy. I hope I'm right. Quite frankly there aren't many out there that look good for 2012, except for DeMint and a couple of others.

I saw someone that didn’t take too kindly to that remark.

If some comment like that would bother SP (and it wouldn’t) instead of causing a belly laugh,

she doesn’t have a prayer.

"If she’s going to be our next president, she has to start campaigning NOW!!

American don't like quitters. She's quitting. This bodes very ominously for her future political viability.

Conservatives seem to be some of the most doom and gloomers anywhere. How bout hearing what she says rather than the pundiots?

Pray for America and Gov Palin

I think you are on target. Politics is a mean business and when you and your loved ones are in the cross hairs meaness becomes visciousness. Chalk up another win for the Dems’ politics of personal destruction.

Sarah is getting out of the kitchen.

Maybe she's building a house with a bigger & better kitchen.
