The left forced her out of the Governorship.

I bet they’re bitterly regretting doing that.

Fortunately, Presidents take a lot less abuse than Alaskan governors, so I’m sure she’ll show up at the convention making herself available to be drafted.

Yeah, but she is a “quitter”, not “ready” for the rigor of politics.

PDS mode off...

Apologies for the frivolous lawsuits scheduled to arrive in 3, 2, ... oh wait. Sarah Palin is the ultimate success story for the anti-American left. Anyone who rocks their applecart will get “the treatment”.

I used to be one of those who slammed Sarah for quitting....but this puts it much more into perspective, and frankly, I don’t blame her one bit for doing what she had to do.

God forever bless and protect Sarah Palin and her precious family from the likes of this intrusive evil that is the lamestream.
Thank you, Lord Jesus. She prevailed!

I think it is reflective of Palin’s solid, normal character that she and her husband undertook to pay the legal expenses by working to earn the money.

The alternative was defaulting on the legal bills, or finding wealthy individuals or political interests to sell her soul to.

She didn’t go looking for a Soros-type patron. Todd went to the slope and she went to the book-writing and speaking circuit.

It’s not political success, but it’s the way a good life is lived. I really respect that.

I don't either, and If she dropped off the planet to just live her own life, I could dig that too.

If my memory is correct from her book, they took a 400k equity loan against the house to pay the legal bills. The advance fro her Book got them back to par or in the black.

In this time frame again if my memory is correct, her Church burnt, so one may ask how did that happened?

In totality, they tried to destroy her and her family.

If Newt had any brains he would ask her to be VP. After all this crap, she can take anything thrown at her, because she seems to always find a new way to fight on another day.

When you're under heavy fire, and almost out of ammunition, or money, you have to improvise.

In addition to thinking about the welfare of her family, Sarah realized she could do the country more good by leaving the Governorship and talking to the whole nation.

The speaking fees she got helped to pay all the legal bills that had piled up and for representation to twart all of the bogus lawsuits.

It was a smart move, and she left the state of Alaska in much better shape than she found it.

There has been a coordinated campaign by the Democrat Party and the MSM to destroy Sarah Palin ever since she got the VP nomination.

Many people on McCain's staff have helped in the process.

The people involved in the ethics complaints were a small group of Democrat operatives. The sources in most of the hit pieces on Sarah Palin use quotes from this small group of Democrat operatives.

Sarah has survived and prospered throughout this..She has done great. She was wonderful riding a Harley through DC. Her speech at CPAC was amazing. You could feel the electricity in the crowd. After her speech she was surrounded by fans who just wanted to talk to her, to get her autograph or to wish her well.

Sarah is a remarkable woman. The vicious attacks she has been subjected to would have broken many people. She has an inner strength that can only come from a deep spirituality and a humble willingness to do God's will.
