LOL! I'm just teasing you about locking the doors. LOL!
You spoke earlier of the Democratic process. What about the American Democratic process of - "Innocent until proven guilty". Does that count for something?
When the story of Gov. Stanford came out that he was missing, I posted that I thought it had a feel to it of scandal, but I didn't elaborate, although, I wanted to post it is probably a woman involved. I waited until I could prove my feelings on that.
That's what I would like us to do with Palin - take her at her word until proven otherwise. You can bet I won't support her if she is lying.
PO, all I'm saying is that I'm listening to her words and nothing I've heard seems to justify suddenly quitting. You are not a lame-duck governor when there's a year and a half left in your term. If all the cases have been settled now, there is no longer a problem with spending tax money or time to fight them.

Absolutely! If she's taken at her word, and as of now I don't have any reason not to take her at her word, it was a purely selfish decision that didn't take into account the wishes of the people of Alaska. They didn't elect her to a 2 1/2 year term. She asked for a 4 year term and they entrusted that to her.
She let the people of Alaska down and didn't up hold her end of the agreement.
That and also, to borrow an expression from my grandmother, she's as crazy as a bessie bug. There are Republican strategists using words like unstable to describe her.

You are actually worse than a lame-duck when you have to spend millions of dollars and most of your time defending yourself from stupid inquiries and attacks that have but one purpose. Fraudulent lawsuits are the left's mode of opposing those that might cause them trouble in elections.

What about other conservatives that find her appalling and being the blame for not winning this election?
Dont you think that if McCain had picked someone else, ANYONE else - a Republican would be sitting in the White House at this very moment?
I dont have a problem with her getting out of the Governor's Mansion. Now maybe she can go home and keep a better eye on her daughters so they wont make the same mistake the oldest one made.
Sarah go home or drop down to the lower 48 and make quarter of a million dollars for one speech; hibernate for a few months and live off of the proceeds; then give another speech. This way you'll have more time to pay quality attention to your kids.
This COULD free her up to say more of the things she really feels and the base feels and connects even more with the conservatives (which may not be politically correct and the viable candidates wont be able to say to win over moderate republicans) but it will help rally the base against the liberal machine. And this will help in 2012.
Yes Sarah go home, look over your daughters and make some real money giving one hour speeches.
Polls show that over 70% of republicans believe she is a viable candidate in 2012, that is the reason the Demo's and the media are trying to destroy her. I'm not one of them.
No, McCain would not have been elected with another VP, it was the strange and sudden complete crash of the economy that caused him to lose. The sitting administration gets blamed with things go south.

Selfish, Mike? At the expense of her family? Her family comes before the Alaskan people. No one was reaming her out, to the extent it has come to, until she was the VP pick and then no one would leave the whole family alone! Merciless and unrelenting - astonishingly crude, rude, vulgar and socially unacceptable!
There is no one, at this moment, who knows her plans for the future. But if she wants to raise her family and then run in 2016 - I'm fine with that.
The MSM is a bunch of crazy Bessie bugs!
And Huckbee tries to say that's politics and he has suffered ethic charges, yada, yada.....NEVER to the extent that Palin has suffered internationally!
How much would 1 1/2 more years take a toll on her family? I don't think any of us knows that, but if I was to save my family - you bet I would ditch everyone else for them.

You said in an earlier post that there are more charges that haven't been settled - besides the 15 earlier charges.

The Alaska FBI denies that they are investigating Sarah Palin for anything, seems to be more leftist baloney.
"There is absolutely no truth to those rumors that we're investigating her or getting ready to indict her," Special Agent Eric Gonzalez said in a phone interview Saturday. "It's just not true." He added that there was "no wiggle room" in his comments for any kind of inquiry.

Right. I am glad they stepped up with the warning, but I was referring to Stew's post below:

I'm not saying that I know what all happened. I'm just saying that my gut tells me there's more. I'm also saying that I'm not willing to say she is pure as the driven snow, just because she is GOP. I do not know her personally so I would be just as unsurprised at anything with her as I would with any other politician.
And I think that she (and her supporters) have plenty to lose with this decision.
At the end of the day and all the arguments - I want to see what she has planned being we seem to find no investigation or wrong doing, thus far.
Pretty soon, we will know a little more - in the mean time - I will wait.
I would love for her to have a grand scheme to turn things around and get this horrible insipid, vile attacking to stop, but I know that I dream. We have taken things into a horribly moral depravity, it's just a shame. We can take our freedom of speech too far and beyond it's original intent. David Letterman is one good example.

Yes, I know. I had seen somewhere else that there were still issues outstanding. I since saw a release from her saying that all the issues were resolved. If that is the case, I just don't see why quit now to save money. That would make more sense if their were indeed other issues.
At the end of the day, however, anybody can just decide to quit any job whenever they wish...I just don't think you can count on people to trust you with future greater responsibilty if there were no compelling reasons. So far I've heard her supporters float so many different reasons, it's hard to point to one compelling reason. But I guess to each their own.
