Probably intends to make it her full time job to run for President.
Maybe she's quitting to be a stay at home grandma?
Personally, I hope she doesn't run. I mean, she seems like a nice person and she's hot for her age, but we already tried that mediocre intellect for President thing. This time, let's run someone a little brighter.

Originally posted by clandarkfireSensible conservatives with an eye to the future know she can't win a general election for them. Not completing her first term as Governor has probably now sealed her unelectibility.
I don't really care if she runs for president, because it seems there are enough intelligent people out there that have realised she knows nothing about the job. However, at least she can see Russia from her house!

Sarah Palin to Step Down as Governor of Alaska
By Melinda Henneberger
Another week, another on-camera breakdown by a Republican governor: In a rambling, borderline bughouse decoupage of sports metaphors and intimations that the forces of darkness were running her out of public life, Sarah Palin announced Friday that she had decided to step down as Alaska's governor, and would be leaving office on July 26.
At one point, she suggested she was quitting because people had made cruel remarks about her baby Trig, and at another, she seemed to be saying that she was being forced out for being too effective, and also because various ethics investigations into her administration were wasting public dollars. Listening to her talk in furious circles, it was hard to say whether a) some new scandal was about to break, b) she'd had enough of politics, thanks, or c) on the contrary, she was only getting started and was quitting to run for president. With a $7 million book advance and supporters who would love her regardless, she in any case didn't need the job, and my money is on d) she just plain felt like it.

wouldn't seem to be the best move to start off with.
She wasn't bright, but that doesn't justify the treatment she received from the media.
Originally posted by sh76WHy does she need 3 years to run for President? He was making fun of her sh76. It is attacks such as this that perhaps she wants to be free. I just can't decide if the far left is really afraid of her despit their efforts to paint her as stupid, but then, as the continued attacks keep flying I tend to think they are. In fact, they do this with ALL their opponents if you have noticed. I would say that McCain was an exception in this regarnd, however, they instead painted him as doddery and a "W" clone. The funny thing is, it would appear that Obama is the "W" clone as he continues his crazy spending and bailing out companies etc. In fact, not much has really changed since he left office its just on a grander scale.

Originally posted by sh76You are being very harsh! After all, he has served only 5 months. He should be able to drop the teleprompter, stop pre-screening journalist's questions and develop the ability to speak from his own beliefs soon enough.....Well, perhaps.
but we already tried that mediocre intellect for President thing.
You should take a 'wait and see' stance and see if he is able to improve before issuing a blanket comdemnation of his "mediocre intellect." Tsk, tsk!
