Poll:Did Sarah Palin Sell Out Alaska For Celebrity and Wealth?

Maybe it is true, but not a particularly bad thing.

We have/had politicians in office who were previously singers, actors and comedians. If Sarah Palin wants to go the other way, good for her.

Personally, I think she is prepping to run for Congress in 2010.

If her objective was a 2012 run for POTUS, she would have been better off finishing her term as governor and simply announcing that she would not re-run for office.

To quit after 2 1/2 years in her first term as governor suggests a person who cannot multitask, handle the pressures that come with the job (working with the legislature, dealing with the press, etc), and someone who is more interesting in being in the spotlight and waving to the crowds than she is in being a serious political force.

Once she went first class.......

Coach just wouldn't do.

So much for the "I'm just like you.....a golly-gee-ya-betcha-soccer mommy"

Pfft!

O' sold out everyone for power and greed . Yet he still can't speak with out a script .

Will probably be slammed for saying this but for me she had nothing to do with Alaska.

Her personal life was in disarray and based on the state investigation, she used resources to attack others that she would not have if she were not a governor. Not the governor of Alaska, but a governor.

People who use their position for non-governmental uses are rampant throughout the world. I didn't want her as a #1 or #2 way before she was in that election.

It has nothing to do with her position or failure to fulfill her position in an acceptable manner. She should not be an elected official and she knows it; that is why she is resigning...

Alaska is still an excellent example of a free state of the USA, despite this critical management.

Palin suffers from "Blues Brothers Complex".

She thinks she's on a mission from God. Therefore she is not beholden to the mundanities of her gubernatorial obligations.

Palin claims that she left office before finishing her first term because she desires to "serve a higher calling" (what ever that might be). Basically, this is Palin-spin for "my current job has become a ball-and-chain holding me back from pursuing my personal ambitions and my desires to attain greater wealth and political clout in the lower 48".
