Sarah Palin just announced that she is stepping down as Alaska's Governor by the end of the month.
She's leaving the people of Alaska, the people who elected her, high and dry. A "source close to her team" told CNN that "her book deal and other issues" were "causing a lot of friction." So, if this source is right, she's abandoning the people who elected her to write a book.
I'm sorry Governor Palin, I tried not to think you were a serious nincompoop, but you leave me no other option.
On the off chance that she comes back and gives a legitimate reason, like a disease, or some kind of personal emergency, I might be able to muster up a little respect for her again, but I don't think that's going to happen.
She has now proven that, like most politicians, she's far more interested in her own personal power than serving the people who entrusted her with their most precious political commodity: their votes.
I've lost every ounce of respect for the political Sarah Palin.
"I'm like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I'm like, don't let me miss the open door. Show me where the open door is."
-Sarah Palin (I guess she found the door, if she's leaving anyway can we kick her out of it?)

You had respect for Sarah Palin?
On a side note, the google ad on my screen wants me to donate to "the official Sara Palin PAC".
I have mixed feelings of this.
One, maybe we can elect someone who cares about the people, not power. (Unlikely)
Two. Are my autographs from her worthless now?
Lol :D
Wow, that seems pretty low. If there were too many issues as governor, I wonder how she would have handled vice presidency.
if palin really is leaving for personal gains then i really don't have any respect for her. personally i didn't like her much. she seemed pretty much fabricated.
@I_Am_UnDeR_EsTiMaTeD - You had Sarah Palin autographs? Haha, do tell!
@YossariansWingman - Sorry that it took so long to reply, i've recently forgotten about xanga. Yeah, she came to my town and my grandma is in love with her and went to see her, got several of things signed by her. Meh.
