Then Barry can not claim to be a one term senator. Right?
But since he can walk on water and make blind men see, his kool aid gulping fans will hear no reason.
2012, if he makes it that long Barry',s going to beat feet.
It's going to be President Palin.
Barry can go buy some goats. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 718628
EXACTLY. BARRY WAS NOT EVEN A ONE TERM SENATOR. HE SPENT MOST OF HIS TIME WRITING ABOUT HIMSELF.
Palin has accomplished WAY MORE. |

I could say that you are failure for Failing to prove your point. Its a matter of Semantics or interpretation.

Quitting midterm, however, is highly unusual. It set off speculation about what led her to leave so abruptly. One interpretation among Republicans was that she had simply underscored how erratic she is as a politician.
“Good point guards don’t quit and walk off the floor if the going gets tough,” said Republican John Weaver, a former senior strategist for Mr. McCain. “Today’s move falls further into the weirdness category; people don’t like a quitter.” |

Furthermore - if we use that logic, wouldn’t Obama and Biden both be quitters because they didn’t finish their terms? They (like Sarah) moved on to something else.
If she stop here and ends here political aspirations – THEN perhaps you can call her a quitter. Until then, I think we need to wait and see what her intentions are. |

You paint with quite the broad brush

I think you need to look up the definition of loose cannon because their actions hardly reflect that.
Not to get off on a tangent (as I’m not a big McCain fan) but at least he went to DC in the capacity of doing his job (as Senator), unlike Obama who only went out of guilt. (Obama had no plans to attend). |

As I said, be patient. Many of us believe that she has a reason and will be sharing her plans when its appropriate.
I may be in the minority but I personally don’t think that this will kill her career. |

WHAT A QUITTER. | Quote | Fairly or unfairly, Palin has come across and/or been portrayed by the media as an erratic flake. Her speech certainly reinforced that and quitting early without being able to succinctly articulate why did as well.
To run for POTUS she would have to go through a long primary season against men experienced with the process who could very well attack her on these grounds as well. If she is having problems dealing with political skullduggery in Alaska you have to wonder how she would handle a two year presidential campaign. |

So what exactly do you have a problem with? What she said was the truth. Russia and Canada are indeed her neighbors and are both foreign countries.
Was she a bit nervous? (Sure, lets look back at the first interview that Obama or Biden gave in their career. I'll bet they were as well)
Also, we know that many of the MSM clips that were released of Palin were not shown in the best light.
They purposefully patched various segments of her together to make her look as bad as possible. If that is what you were basing your opinion (of her) on, then the MSM did their job. I listen to context of what she said not how the MSM displayed it. |

Palin and her staff were spending most of their time fighting frivolous, bullshit lawsuits, all of which (to date) have been dismissed. The left wing nutcases bringing the suits made it impossible for her to govern the state.
In a situation like that, what the fuck would you do? Would you let the state's business fall by the wayside?
There's important work to be done, so rather than sit by and watch as that work sits idle, she did WHAT'S BEST FOR ALASKA & HER PEOPLE. Quoting: XLR8
Ok who called captain save-a-ho, haha just kidding you are right,the stupid left cant accept that a normal chick with some morals almost became vice president and has a legit shot at 2012,the thought of a woman in power that is'nt a fem nazi and has'nt had an abortion must scare the hell out of these people.and she is such a Milf!

She thinks she's now too good for the job. After a flash of global super-stardom, dealing with the small-town and small-state nit-picking of Alaska no doubt feels like a comedown. So, the hell with that! On to bigger and better things!
She's weak. It's been a rough year for the governor. After suddenly being annointed the savior of the national Republican party last summer, she's been pilloried as a narrow-minded, selfish, incompetent flash in the pan. And it's true: Being pilloried sucks. But tough folks take it in stride and ride it out. Sarah Palin didn't want to do that.
She's an opportunist and just wants to get rich. Book contracts, TV hosting jobs, speaking gigs, etc. The opportunities are endless. As a private citizen, Sarah Palin will be a millionaire in a week. ("Hell, yeah!") And so the hell with this thankless public-service crap.
A scandal that has yet to come out. Several readers have noted this possibility. It seems less likely to us than some of the foregoing possibilities, but it's certainly plausible. If so, quitting in advance of it, and talking happily about other opportunities, would be the height of weak.
As to the citizens of Alaska, the folks who elected her to do a job? Whatever.
"I quit!"
