Many are scoffing and clucking at Sarah Palin recent announcement that she is resigning as governor of Alaska at the end of the month. Either the pundits can’t figure out why she’s doing what she doing or they’re saying what a political catastrophe it is for her.
I will take the contrarian view and say I think I understand what she’s trying to do. She’s running for President in 2012. After meeting with several top GOP politicos when she was in Washington last, including Bush I aide Fred Malek, they must have told her she cannot be governor of Alaska and run for President at the same time. So she took their advice and decided to vacate the office and made the decision to do so right away.
Sarah takes the headlines again.
What can she do next? She neads a suggestion, here's one. Appear on Conan's show and get David Letterman mad at her or appear on David's show and get Conan mad at her. Doesn't relly matter she will get the headlines.
Now we know why she really quit being Governor of Alaska, she takes advice, (see first paragraph.
Question? Do you think she has much of a chance beating O'Bama, or anyone else who may run for Presedent?
