Do they ...

Maybe she'll have her own show like Huckabee.  Maybe Fox has wised up and ditched Geraldo and will replace his show with "Sarah!" 

 I think she is going to seek reparations because the world is so tough on female politicians. Poor poor Palin, the consummate victim.

It's really not necessary that I speculate on what she's going to do.  We'll know soon enough.

What I'm having fun with is the forlorn loons who can't choose between laughing or crying.

One such idiot has already promised us jail time for Palin.

It's just a fun spectacle.

I feel it was a mistake no matter her plans for the future.  She will now be labeled a quitter.  

You left out a choice:

• Punching bag for the MSM and the left

D

Write Congress and Senate and tell them what YOU think!

Keep the ILLEGALS out, join NumbersUSA to send free faxes to your reps.

I think she's going to try and speak out against Obama,Pelosi, and Reids policies. I think she may start with Cap and Trade and just shred anyone who(Dem and Rep) voted on this without reading it. If she's succesful she'll move on to bigger things, if not she'll fade away. I do give her credit for at least trying to do something, It's more than anyone else(exept Boehner) is doing.

Like most two bit tinpots never did anything in his entire life.

She will be crowned Champion of the Iquitarod: 

I disagree with some of my friends who say this is "out of character" for the good governor. Sarah Palin quit five colleges in her otherwise unremarkable collegiate career, before finally graduating from the sixth. She quit her job in television. She and Todd quit their snow machine dealership in Big Lake. She quit as chair of the Alaska Oil & Gas Conservation Commission. Now she has quit the governorship of the state she supposedly loves. Sarah Palin is a quitter. When the going gets tough, Sarah Palin quits.   (Geoffrey Dunn)

Is there a chance that she could become the voice for a new independent conservative movement?  

Playboy spread with Maureen Dowd or any other poison pen lefty that has ripped her.  (Tasteful of course).  NO AIR BRUSHING!

I like Sarah Palin. Having said that, and not that it's her fault, I'm sort of "Palin-ed Out" and suffering from Palin Fatigue at this point (although not nearly as much as my Obama Fatigue). So, I didn't vote in this poll. I hope she has a quiet and restful hiatus and a happy future - no matter what she chooses to do with it. I hope that the jackals on the left leave her and her family the hell alone.

I also hope that shawn backwards ceases to tie up a good portion of these threads with his tiresome sneering comments that seem to be designed for nothing other than seeking attention.

The "Mainstream" Media: By liberals. For liberals.

I put in presidential run, 2012, for three reasons.

1. Her resignation as governor comes after a highly successful implementation of her campaign issus, which was rooting out corruption and maintaining a fiscally conservative and responsible state budget, which she has done. While she certainly can stay in place as governor and be effective, at this point she would be in maintenance mode as all her campaign promises had been fulfilled-years ahead of schedule. In contrast over 40 of the other 49 states are experiencing severe downturns. Had Alaska been on the brink or in trouble, then it would be a completely different manner. It would then look as if she's running from the job, which is not at all the case.

A comparison can be made to having a new CEO come into a company to root out ineffeciencies and get it going on the right track. Once this happened, and the company was successfully restored and refocused with a strong mission statement, then he would be able to move on and let someone else take the reigns with a tight ship.

2. One cannot respond to national allegations effectively in Alaska, especially when the accusers have a strong political incentive to destroy you. Right now, Sarah Palin is the lightning rod of every attack by the democrats, short of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and now Mark Levin. Sarah represents the conservative (and in my happy heart, Libertarian) wing of the republican party, in a way that Teddy Roosevelt invigorated the same proponents in his 1912 run as the candidate from the Bull Moose party.

To that end, had she remained as governor, she would have had to take the high road for her entire tenure as governor. Again, had the state been in trouble, that would have been her duty, and indeed would have been her legacy to have jumped a drowning ship. But with a strong state, she there was no "up-side" to staying in office from a pragmatic standpoint.

3. Running for president takes a lot of money and a lot of itinerary setting. It's difficult to constantly take flights out of Juneau on commercial airplanes to attend the necessary but brutal fundraisers while ensuring that Alaska has an active leader in the state. To that end, resignation makes perfect sense from a financial standpoint.

As a bonus, 2010 will become 1994 on steroids with the Congressional turnover. If the republicans pull off the greatest turnover in congressional history and take over both houses, the democrats will have to divert their attention from the presidential race to demonize the newly-effective republican leaders in congress. At that time, Palin will be able to fully assess her own chances. 

That's why I have no doubt this is a presidential run, and regardless of the end majority results of the congressional majorities at the midterms, Sarah is set up perfectly. In addition, she's doing it in the most fiscally and most effective manner.

______________________
Moderate... Democrat... Liberal... Progressive... Socialist... Communist—The progression is clear as day.

Since the Palins were not rich, and since they could not accept outside income, as liberal politicians can, they simply could not afford to field lawyers to answer the frivolous lawsuits.

Knowing this, the leftists used this method to force Palin to resign. There will need to be legal changes to allow those who are not extremely rich to occupy public office.  The conservatives should make this issue a political priority.   Filing copious  lawsuits against the lowest income  liberal governors and representatives would aid in getting democrat cooperation to limit the profitability of lawsuits against public officials.   

 After a short time as a private citizen, Palin will have a sufficient $ war chest $  to hold public office in the future.

 As a private citizen, Palin will wield more influence,  amass more wealth,  have ability to sue those who publish libel,  and this is causing the liberal hysteria to reach fever pitch.

The people who make America work require representation.

During the week after Obama won the election, I affixed a Palin 2012  bumper sticker to my car and it will stay there.  She's the "MOST NORMAL"  person  put forth on the national political scene in decades. 

Let all these pygmies take a shot. Who cares. I would rather listen to Sarah rattle on than endure Mr Umm-Ah forming a sentence. I know hers comes from her heart in a blurt and his is s-l-o-w-l-y being read off some mechanical whiteboard inside his head. I don't know if I would vote for her--who knows--but I am not going to slam her. I am a mom, she's a mom--and I support her and enjoy her.

PALIN FOR PRESIDENT  2012 - 2014.5!

Are there any Alaskans here?  How do you feel about your governor quitting on you?  How do you feel about the lieutenant governor taking over?  Given that governor and lieutenant gov don't run on the same ticket, you tend to get 2 very different politicians.  I'd be worried if my governor stepped down.

I kind of felt like she would resign.  She's spending a hell of a lot of time in the lower 48 states.  I think she might leave Alaska.

I think she may very well become the head of the RNC some day.  The left hates her.  Some on the right value her insight on what the GOP base is thinking.  She is a hit with the hardcore right.  She has that knack for grassroots politics.  She has unique insights.  Think of her as a potential Howard Dean for the GOP.  I think its more than a possibility that she will become the RNC chair.  

She has the "street smarts" to match up against the current Obama machine.  Given time, she could deliver the masses to the GOP.  We keep hearing about the "silent majority."  She seems like she knows where to find it.

I think she understands the demographics of Republican VOTERS.  Obama is showing that he could be moonbat crazy.  2012... GOP has to run someone that is imposing, strong.   

I am not aware of anyone who can read Sarah Palin's mind.

My answer: 'Time will Tell.'

Sarah Palin: Secretary of Energy in the Romney administration.

Howard Dean was in a similar position.  A faction in the democratic party hated him for being the governor of a "backwater" state.  He wasn't "sophisticated" enough for them due to his "complacency" on guns and pandering to "hicks."  Democrats eventually get pounded.  They turn to Dean and his knowledge of grassroots organization, the extreme left, the base of the party, the base of the opposition, and activist groups such as ACORN.

Obama ran a campaign based upon Dean's campaign for president. He used the web, he used the youth, he used the activists, he used the media, and he avoided stirring up hornets. Some don't acknowledge that Howard Dean himself has deep ties to ACORN.  ACORN has been his tiny private army.   Obama raised tons of cash over the internet like Dean and disciplined himself on gun control.  He didn't stir up the NRA, something that Howard Dean espoused. 

Now we have the "moderates" in the GOP sinking the ship.  The base is ticked off, they embrace Palin.  I could see her leading a new wave of GOP candidates in 2010 or 2012 as party leader.  The Democrats fear a wave of versions of Sarah Palin emerging from the GOP.  They are hellbent on pigeon holing the GOP into obscurity and don't want people outside the mold to threaten their efforts.  They love the GOP as it is now, with the "moderates" in charge.  They are easy to defeat due to their malleable characters.  They really don't stand for anyhing.  They have no connection to the base.  They like to play both sides.  The ones that are content to feed of scraps and will play by liberal rules as long as they keep their seats or get some power in return. 

Liberals are saying Comrades, er uh I mean fellow Democrats, "Palin has zero experience as a Community Organizer". How could she possibly be ready to lead America?

Why she has never even taught ACORN how to 'Steal Elections'.

Democrats say Sarah Palin has NO plagiarism experience, like Joe Biden.

One World Government supporters are afraid, Sarah Palin will NOT appease Iran and Syria, not to mention Ayers, Wright, Farrakhan and The Nation of Islam.

Democrat Elitists scream, how many articles has she written for Harvard Law Review?

Democrat leaders scream we have not heard her say "um", "uh" or "er" once, how could she possibly communicate with Obama followers?

Affirmative Action advocates complain, Sarah Palin has NEVER even fulfilled any kind of quota.

Obama Cultists state, Our Obama-Messiah has created a whole new class of Americans, 'Bitterclingers' who might see this 'SarahCudda' as relating to them.

Quoting 'Messiah Obama' "this is NOT acceptable".

Pro-Choice feminists scream, this woman doesn't represent 'The American Woman', she didn't even allow her young to die in a dirty hospital utility room alone.

Code Pink supporters screech, Sarah Palin was pictured with a gun and a soldier. Need we say more about her lack of Patriotism?  

Metrosexuals recoil and hiss, Horrors of Horrors - she doesn't seem to know her place in the 'Collective'.

Radical Educators say, how will we explain to the children that the Palin family doesn't have two mommies or two daddies.

All Liberals agree, Sarah Palin is a mockery to 'womyn' everywhere! She's like some sort of different species of human!

She doesn't know what to do. She knows the options, but she's on the verge of deciding to leave public life...even if she hasn't recognized that yet. She's eccentric and an easy target because of her country-style speech and lack of knowledge on issues. She could learn if she wanted to, but that's not on her agenda. Never was.

of the above poll numbers, it appears to be anybody's guess what Sarah will do next...Depending on how you look at it, she has either opened the door to a whole slew of new possibilities for herself, or she has misguidedly (and possibly unintentionally) closed it...Who knows right now...I'm not even sure that Sarah knows for sure. Time will tell... 

"The problem is not that people are taxed too little...the problem is that government spends too much." ~President Ronald Reagan

I'm so sick of politics that I would vote for her because she is real. Anyone who would go on national TV doing an interview while hauling and gutting fishies (and proudly wearing their guts) is my hero. We are so fake in the press it is refreshing to see Palin out doing to the fishies what she is gonna do to American Politics. She is saying exactly what the rest of us peasants are saying about the elites in this country. It's time to haul in the pols, gut them and throw them on ice. GO SARAH!
