Palin NEVER quit her job at FNC.
In March of 2011 FNC suspended Santurum and Newt from their jobs appearing because they were running but Palin continued to make regular paid appearances on FNC as a paid political commentator all through the election.
She NEVER intended to run. If she was she was have been off FNC too. Those who believed she was running were fools. It was as clear as day and night.
Matthew 5:22
But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire.
