You cannot fault Sarah for leaving the governorship. Really, she hasn't been governing much anyway in recent months. She has been fighting baseless ethics complaints, so I see it as a win for Alaskans. As you said, she will not go away quietly, if at all. This resignation is a counterattack against the lunatics who attack her and her family out of pure hatred. She will write a book and do a speaking tour defending conservatism and will make a ton of money doing it, which will further infuriate her foes. Does she go far in national politics? No one really knows at this point, but as a sold out Palin supporter I certainly hope so. Well written post. You cannot fault Sarah for leaving the governorship.

What she has accomplished against mind boggling odds and opposition does not in any way "jive" with how she has presented herself to the national stage. zhann,

I admit to being confused about Palin. What she has accomplished against mind boggling odds and opposition does not in any way “jive” with how she has presented herself to the national stage.

This is simple media spin, and judging by your tag of Media Bias you seem to have noted that as well. Trying to dig too deep into the reason for attacking this phrase is meaningless, they could just as easily have attacked any other phrase in her speech with the same effect. This one was, of course, simply easy. As for Palin, I don't share your high regards of her. Actually, my view of her is quite the opposite. But, with that said, this story is well written and well thought through, so consider it stolen ;) Personally, I think that the attacks on Palin’s remark has more to do with trying to attack ‘anything’ that she said.
