Giving herself time to gear up to inevitably fail in 2012. Good riddance, ****. Please don't appear on FOX again. You're irrelevant until you announce your candidacy...Next week.
Yeah, who wouldn't be thrilled to vote for some idiot woman from Alaska who was under investigation for ethics violations?
Hers is an uninformed, immature brand of politics, compensating for ignorance with arrogance. The Republicans would be better off with Bill O'Reilly running for president. At least he talks as though he's read a newspaper.
The big news stories keep coming. I think someone at the AP's fingers are bleeding. He hasn't slept since the Iranian elections and has been crying non-stop since Jackson died.
I liked Tina Fay's impressions of her - but I wouldn't say she was being satirical. She pretty much played the ex governess dead on and because Palin is such a sad pathetic and comical figure, it came off as such.

But at another point she invoked a military quotation, misattributing it to Gen. Douglas MacArthur, in what seemed to be an effort to wave aside any suggestion that she was abandoning the fight. He said, Were not retreating; we are advancing in another direction, she said. (The remark was actually said by Maj. Gen. Oliver Prince Smith.)
My best guess is that she is leaving politics and is going to be a commentator on Fox News. All she has is popularity; she doesn't have tact or grace or capacity, so she'll fit right in with the partisan hacks on the 24-hour news networks. Honestly, I'd be surprised if she's trying to run for president like everyone is speculating, seeing as she failed so hard at running for vice-president.
