According to the article just run by JE she still has a favorable rating with conservative Rs, and they seem to think that anything she says is gospel be it truth, lies, or gibberish. So, maybe she could still be elected to represent the Republican party, if she can survive the long brutal campaign. That’s a big if. Or maybe she’s more of the mind of being a political mouthpiece for her views, kind of like Rush but only speaking to large pre-selected audiences that would not challenge her message. Having to think quickly has led to her most embarrassing moments. Just get on stage and preach the gospel of right-wing conservatism. This would allow for criticism to only come from the media where she can then label them the dirty-low-down Liberal Media. Very safe approach that she would actually be good at.

Zero credibility, lack of follow through and a quitter to boot. Not exactly the resume we the people look for in any employee, let alone one occupying high political office. You could hear Sarah’s political coffin slam shut all the way from Wasilla.

If she had any ambitions for higher office, she doesn’t now. This decision ended any hope of her getting elected to any national-level position.
Seemingly, she decided to leave her office for a strange reason. She wasn’t running for higher office. She hasn’t stated a medical reason for her decision. It appears she left because politics is an ugly profession.
Who could guarantee that she wouldn’t leave another office, if elected, for the same reason?
I sincerely believe she will not pursue a life in politics.

I was born in Juneau and still have family there. It is my belief that Sarah is on to bigger and better things. She is a smart lady. Rarely do politicians come along that truly “work” for the people and Sarah is one of them. I also think that she stepped aside to let the Lt. Gov. build a platform for the 2010 elections. You all better pray that a Democrat doesn’t win the Governor’s race. Our resource rich state of Colorado has been driven into the ground under Ritter the Dem. Thank goodness we got rid of Ken Salazar when he joined BO’s team. Good luck ever getting ANWR opened with him in the Interior Dept.
And, oh by the way, all the nastiness and name calling isn’t very becoming. Can’t you discuss the issues like adults?

It’s an admission of political suicide-by-indifference. By chumping out on the governor’s job in Alaska, she forfeits way too much credibility and is apparently content to milk the lecture circuit nationally for what she can get out of it while her celebrity is marketable.
Such a change from a year ago, when she was regarded by many (with minds still open, at least) as a new but reasonably competent governor who was working to better her state’s condition.

She’s proven herself unreliable and unable to handle run-of-the-mill criticism that all politicians are subject to.
Her ‘excuses’ as to why she was quitting were all nonsense. Maybe she believes everything that comes out of her mouth, but most everyone else has been trained to expect nothing but self-service, even if it means telling a lie or two.
I remember when she was first nommed as vp. Her and Todd didn’t get their stories straight and Sarah said she of course discussed the job offer with her kids and they were supportive. Todd on the other hand had said they kept the entire thing a secret. A dumb thing to lie about, but was only the beginning of the fairy tale.
Thank gawd our state doesn’t have to feel like crawling under a rock because of her inability to take the heat like a mature person on a national level.
Thank you, Sarah!

As a Democrat I initially I gave Governor Palin the benefit of the doubt and hoped she’d turn out to be another Jay Hammond……..an honest, thoughtfull governor for all of Alaska. Well, she has effectively proven to me that that will not be the case. What we got instead was a pathetic, pathological liar and malignant narcissist. Will her star continue to burn? I hope not because it will be to the detriment of our nation. Time to move on and celebrate our country’s freedom to assemble……..happy 4th of July Juneau!!

Pundits say that Palin has had a remarkable career. How remarkable is a politician who is more anxious about public opinion than Alaskan issues? She compares her quitting and moving on–to where is unclear–to her glory day moves as a high school basket ball player. (Could we have had an adult comparison?) Beyond the deep conservatives whose own governor(s) are having affairs, who is on her team?

She began a national political action committee. Her podium has a banner that reads, “Country First.” Does anyone really think she has any intention of fading into the background? Quitting at this point in her gubernatorial career was a BRILLIANT execution of strategy for two reasons.
First off, her term is essentially done anyway; she’ll get little else done in a lame duck session of the legislature. She’s also facing a big loss on stimulus funds if she stays on. She is also right when she says she can affect Alaska issues more from the outside; she has higher credibility with people down south compared to people here in AK who’ve had to put up with her.

This decision could have a negative impact on any future political aspirations for her. However, I she is still popular enough to be voted back into a public office. plus, like her predecessors before her she has left the governors office accomplishing a few objectives our state had before her term, which would run in her favor and the republicans on top of that I feel during the last two months the republican party has done a better job at defending each other when one current public official was criticized, which would also run in her favor. It depends on her how successful she will be in the later future; however she still has those traits which makes her appear genuinely likable and incompetent to the general public.

I don’t know what it is but sooner or later the real reason for Palin’s resignation will hit the news. Sarah Palin is doomed to become a laughable footnote, and an object lesson is how NOT to do politics. I sincerely hope the Neocons persist in running her for something. That will put the final nail in their coffin and the Republican Party can finally return to normallacy at long last.
We always need two viable political parties to balance things out.

We should never forget that fact. She left a strongly and competently managed state that Parnell just needs to keep on managing as Palin has done. That’s all. We will be fine. She will move on – and hopefully (or so we should all hope) she will be given the chance to help us all – in a broader sense – nationally. As we certainly are not being “served” competently and accountably in Washington, D.C. right now.
Best of Luck, and thanks Governor. Thanks very much.

Lets keep things in perspective, even on her worst day, is still better and infinitely more honest than than Frank Murkowski. Mortaxski was a blight on the state, Sarah by comparison was a minor pain in the tush, used as a pinata by the liberal media including the Vampire itself.
Her national career aspirations will take a hit, but teamed up with a proper Republican may do well.

Sarah said all the right things when she was campaigning for office. That’s what a politician does! Whether they follow through depends on how much contact is made with the real world. Cudo’s to the governor for throwing the towel in. She knows she’s lost the confidence of Alaskans, her staff, the Legislature! She just couldn’t do the job! She was not used to taking criticism because she was a star in high school. They raved about Sarah!!! Well, this is the real world. That ball has quit bouncing for her, and she’s gal enough to realize that! For her sake and her family, I hope that the ball stops bouncing here and she returns to normal living, her hubby goes back to the Slope, and she just spoils her grandchild rotten!

No I don’t think anyone running for office will take a chance with her, look what happened to John McCain’s campaign.
Sarah Palin would not listen to anyone and she thought she was being a “Maverick” but she was being foolish.
And Sarah Palin stop trying to sell our state out to the highest bidder. Most Alaskans want to protect this state from the companies that want to come here and suck the life out of it just so people can live over the top life styles.
Yes this is a new age and we need leaders that will take us in a different direction where we protect our natural resources and use them as God intended. God never intended for man to destroy this planet by using his natural resources the way we do.
So, yes I am glad that you quit because we need people in office that understand this new direction our country must move in order to have any hope for a sustainable future.

That was a fiasco of an exit. Rambling speech and no clear transition announced in terms of what’s next. Not even the old chestnut of “spending more time with the family.” Instead vague rhetoric and basically admitting defeat. If she doesn’t go sight-seeing, being a gov is more work and harder than she wants to deal with right now. Doesn’t even apologize to the people who elected her or for breaking her promise to serve four years.
I don’t see how she expects to be on the varsity team when she wants off the court during a JV game.

kar- GREAT analogy with Varsity/JV. What if she would have gone to the level of VP. would she have walked when the going got tough? Only in my nightmares would she be anywhere near the white house. She may have realized what she has done to herself and family, and is quitting while she is still on thin ice, rather than haven falling through. Unfortunately, I suspect she has done this for personal/financial and other gains. I guess we will see soon….

Why did Sarah, Todd and Bristol came to Juneau? She didn’t participate in the parade and didn’t have the courtesy to tell the parade organizers that she wasn’t going to do so.
It doesn’t seem that Sarah has had any affinity for Juneau in the past; quite the opposite is true. It seems she pretty much moved the state governmental operations to Anchorage. So why go to Juneau?
Was Bristol already in Juneau at the time of the speech? She wasn’t with her mother when she resigned.
If they felt it was important to celebrate the 4th in Juneau, did Willow and Piper come as well? After all of hooplah, it seems that the family would have wanted to spend some time together.
If they stay, why would Sarah, Todd and Bristol need to be in Juneau on Monday? Since Juneau is the state capitol, maybe certain documents need to be filed there. Anyone know about Alaska’s laws and rules concerning issues relating to the Palins that might need to be filed in Juneau or might be filed in Juneau to fake out those who are watching in Anchorage.
Folks in Juneau, please watch what the Palins are doing. If you like you can discuss at Palins Deceptions http://www.palindeception.com/blog/

Lots of talking out of both sides of the mouth from the pundits analyzing this strange woman. If everyone makes fun of her, can’t stand her, think she’s a menace to society, etc.etc., why buy her book, why pay to hear her speak, why encourage her to share her convoluted thought process??? Maybe if more people simply ignored her, she would go away. The minute she saw that red light on the television cameras go on, she has acted like she finally found her place on this earth. And it has nothing to do with God’s will or faith-based reflection. She insults Alaska by saying she’s doing this FOR her beloved state, she insults God by suggesting he/she is responsible for her behavior. Oh wait, she thinks SHE is God, so that makes it okay…I guess there are just some people who are attracted to train wrecks and simple minds.

@”hatters not welcome:”
You wrote, “Give it a rest! all you hatters”
I agree completely! All hatters and coaters and shoers need a very well deserved rest.
So, my advice to all hatters is simple, “Take off their hats, coats, and shoes. Take a load off. Just sit down and ruminate–about all of those roomers that have taken residence in Alaska. Have they been registered as Republicans, Democrats, Alaska Independents, or what? Did Acorn have anything to do with it? The Wasilla Council of Churches? The Personnel Board? The Troopers, on or off duty? My goodness, the possibilities… And what about all of Sarah’s RNC hats and coats and dresses and shoes? They must have been involved. Yup. You betcha.”
I feel so much better now that I’ve taken off my hat. You will, too!
(Or, dear “hatters not welcome,” do you just need to clean the “t” on your keyboard? If you meant “haters,” you just don’t understand–it’s not hate, it’s extreme disappointment with the presence (read “persona”) and performance of Governor Palin. By the way, would you say that she was doing during the campaign as she incited crowds of supporters to the point that “Kill him” was chanted? At more than one venue, too. Now, that’s hate, ain’t it?)

Palin has been unable and unwilling to deal with all the criticism and constructively respond to it. It’s one of those laws of human nature – you encourage criticism from others by being negative, reactive and defensive. I doubt she ever learned those tenets in grade school. Besides, if she had to repeat the 10th grade she might have a better understanding of world geography.

Among social and religious conservatives – “values voters,” as they’re known – Palin will remain popular, though if she runs in 2012 she probably will have competition for those voters from former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee and perhaps others.
Why would you prefer Palin over Huckabee? he is a really intelligent person in contrast to Palin.

Milspec – it’s amusing you and others would turn this discussion to Obama to apparently deflect or distract from the disastrous repercussions of Palin’s resignation. If you seriously believe Obama did not know there were 50 states when he supposedly said what you quote him as saying, then I believe you’re mistaken. On the other hand, there’s no mistake that even Fox News commentator Liz Trotta exclaimed this morning that Palin is “inarticulate and undereducated.” I would wager you a fine Juneau beer that if you asked Palin to complete a map of the 50 state names (not to mention the capitals) she would fail miserably. She might not even recollect the name of the Capital of Alaska! So I rest my case on Palin’s dismal understanding of world geography, notwithstanding her astute perspectives of Canadian and Russian borders and airspaces so infamously described during the Katie Couric interview.

I would hope that this puts paid to her political ambitions once and for all. However, I read yesterday that she was quoted as saying that if she ran against President Obama, she would beat him….wonder if she was refering to a foot race? If anyone is interested, there is an article coming out soon titled “It Came From Wasilla” that is in the August 2009 Vanity Fair. If this is not on the news stands, it can be read online…just use your browser to look it up.

Ich Rauche a few lines up has it right….it is about money….when you are a conservative darling in a time of no competition…you will make the big bucks riding that speech curcuit…book deals….kind of like baseball card shows…you can make big bucks signing autographs and such. I submit that as as ex gov at this time is absolutely the best financial decision that Sarah Palin has EVER made. She is free to work for the highest bidder and will retire comfortably in a few short years. In many ways, I salute her astute business sense….be the right brand at the right time.

Heck, Teddy Kennedy can’t even make it across a bridge in his part of the country without dunking a car. I doubt he, or most any other politician R or D, could get more than 35 or 40 states correct on a map.

She wasn’t going to be a lame duck that traveled around the state/country…yet she gives her notice to resign in Wasilla, then flies down to Juneau for the fireworks and the parade on a weekend, and now is commercial fishing on the western seas of Alaska. Did the State pay for all that travel? She refused to be in our parade and what business was conducted on the weekend? Will she get paychecks from two places at once, commercial fishing and as Governor? Per her description, she is being an active lame duck!
Will the State give her a guaranteed retirement with full insurance for life for her and her family, even though she didn’t complete even one term as Governor, by her own choice? Shouldn’t our legislators be looking into this?

Remember the days when breaking the law was a crime? (Well folks if you run for office you’re above the law just ask Senator Stevens). Sara Pain in the state probably found a conscience and decided to bail out before the investigations were finished. If you or I did some of the things she did we’d be at the grey bar hotel, but as I said only the ones in power or wealthy are above the law. I say good riddins!

I’m not a Sarah fan, but you’re all being VERY short sighted and really full of yourselves. First off, Gov. of ALASKA is really little league PTA dribble. It’s barely one step up from Mayor of nowhere. The Obstructions have tried endlessly to hand-cuff her legally in effort to bog the processes….. Well, Houdini just slipped out of the cuffs and I do believe she’s smells blood in the water. I don’t think she has ANY aspirations for Presidency, BUT!!!#1 – The national cameras love Sarah, she’ll become the bread winner for the Republican Party. She’ll make Obama look like he was Trick-or Treating for UNICEF. #2 Whether Alaskans like her or not is irrelevant, conservatives in most of the U.S., and especially in the bible-belt LOVE her. #2 – She’s, as she should be, P!ssed-off. Take a look at how SEACC managed the mining issue and how those of the same ILK have tried to tie up Sarah in court. Notice any similarities? Mark Begich and his smack talking buddies are in for a fight. Sarah will HAVE his job, their is no possible way for him to avoid it. Sarah, in Congress? Begich, SEACC, LCCS and likes are toast. I’m betting, like another poster here, Sarah’s not quit at all. She’s heading out to bloody some noses. I’ll donate $100 cash to her cause just to see where this train is heading. I’ve had my complete fill of obstructionists leaf-lickers too… Go Sarah!

Who cares about Sarah. We’ve got new problems. As someone in the Anchorage Daily News blogged,
“Is this the same chief of staff Nizich:
–who did not stop the governor from using private email accounts for conducting official state business in order to circumvent public record laws?
—who approved Palin cashing in thousands of $$$ in per diem checks for living in her Wasilla home while not incurring any additonal expenses and giving herself a raise thereby violating AK laws?
—who did not protect Alaska’s interests by not invoking AK Constitution’s Article 3, Section 9 (Temporary Absence: In case of the temporary absence of the governor from office, the lieutenant governor shall serve as acting governor)
because he was too busy pallin’ around with the muckity-mucks at the Republican Convention?
And where was Sean Parnell when all this was happening?”
We need a clean slate not business as usual.

Reasons to quit:

4. Ethics complaints
5. Spoiled legislative relationships
6. Bottomless pit of need for National attention
7. Gotta make that $$.
Reasons to stay:
1. Proving she can run a state will give her at least some credibility in 2011.
2. Limiting National exposure will minimize chances of more embarrassing moments.
3. Those pesky kids could actually use a mother.

However, I am not rich and I would guess you are in the same boat as me. I don’t know about you but I have not seen any increase in my income and I noticed that taxes are certainly not receding either. You talk about the rich, what do you think will happen if the rich are over taxed, the ones who own companies and create jobs? They will move over seas or start letting employees go. This Cap & Trade BO want’s to push down our throats will certainly destroy this economy even more then it is. The poor will just get poorer and middle class and rich will be at the same level. Are you better off sense BO has been in office, do you really think this administration is looking after you and your family? Just curious. I apologize to all for running off topic.

Bill…..define “rich”. It seems like the dems, who for some reason think that people who make a lot of money hoard it all to themselves, are slowly lowering the “rich” bar. Now being wealthy is defined as any family making $200,000 a year. Granted, that’s a good living, but I know people in Juneau that make that kind of money, and I certainly wouldn’t call the rich or wealthy. Hell, Al Gore thought that anybody that made $200,000 for 5 years was a millionaire.

When their sort of venom comes from a conservative we’re called HATERS, and yet that same spew coming from a liberal is called “healthy debate”. Don’t think for a second that all conservatives enjoy the work of the likes of Limbaugh or that we’re all bible pounding fanatics or that we all turn our nose up and any ethnicity or sexual preference. Some of the biggest bigots I know are registered, card carrying Democrats. Their are those of us that are simply refusing to pay the way for those losers in the 18 to 40 age bracket who choose not to work, as a life style. They survive by being leaches on society and their are a ton of them right here in Juneau. Some need a hand up to get going, I’m first in line to help. Others are continuously asking for a handout to KEEP going. In those cases I’m also first in line to deliver the bad news. Also, don’t mix the terms Republican and Conservative thinking they’re one and the same, or interchangeable. I am a conservative, but I will never be a Republican.

If she disappears for a few years she can come back as an ‘elder statesman (woman)’ and America being America, we’ll have forgotten all of the ignorance and stupidity she displayed last year.

When did democrats become so mean and viscious? You guys used to be the loving, caring, kind party that was the voice of the caring people.
Some of the comments on here are brutal, childish and uncalled for. If a republican said some of these things about a popular democrat leader, you people would be on here freaking out about the evil arrogant republicans!!! But because you all don’t like Palin, it’s apparently OK to say as many insultive things as possible as you want.
The disgusting thing is that most of this hatred isn’t really born because of the job Palin has done. It’s because she’s a republican who failed. And maybe some jealousy because this unknown woman almost became VP before your hero Hilary did!!!!
Am I a Palin fan? I think she had her strengths and weaknesses. And that the run for VP pretty much doomed her. She clearly wasn’t ready to jump up on that big of a stage yet. But the way you people are attacking her is ridiculous. Frankly, I expect better from you. Your inability to seperate your political believes from reality is scary.

Apparently our fearsome gov was getting paid by the state of Alaska the whole time she was stumping for VP. And, she committed a major breach of protocol by not being willing to hand over her gubernatorial responsibilities to Parnell while she was out of state during the campaign. I hope there’s a lawsuit and she is finally held entirely responsible for her abuse of the office she was elected to. Contrary to the image she is trying to portray, she is not the victim. We are.
