She is an absolute flake, and has signed the death warrant for her political career with this move. For example:
Quote:

I’ve determined it’s best to transfer the authority of governor to Lieutenant Governor Parnell; and I am willing to do so, so that this administration – with its positive agenda, its accomplishments, and its successful road to an incredible future – can continue without interruption and with great administrative and legislative success.

This quote is in direct reference to the fact that once she got the scope shoved straight up her ass because she was tagged for VP -- and perhaps a heart attack away from the presidency -- it cost Alaska money. 15 ethics probes, boo friggin' hoo. And yes, she was exonerated on all of them. So, instead of finishing her term, as she absolutely should have, she's veiled her lust for the Oval Office by saying that since she cost Alaska money that it'd be better if she wasn't governor at all.
First off, it's pretty obvious to see that this will turn out to be a big lie, that being her motives. How absurdly amazing to see them surmise how dumb the republic will be, as if we're going to forget that she turned her back on her sworn responsibilities. Does she not think that the Democrats will remind everyone at every turn about this? Who the hell are her advisers anyway for this?
Yea, good luck with your new direction change Sarah, I'm sure that all Alaskans will appreciate it when the truth comes out. The truth being, this has nothing to do with Alaska at all, but grovelling for power. And I feel bad about the intellectual conservatives that will have to stare at this terribly unqualified maladroit every time they investigate what the Republican party is doing to push along their ideals. But then again, I think the GOP doesn't really have many intellectuals in their ranks anymore. Just people like my dad who, God rest his soul, thought Palin was a great choice for VP because "she's spunky!"
I just hope Palin doesn't chase the presidency. I hope she sits back and lets someone with brains get the nomination.
