you know... I was just thinking about this.

Why announce on July 3rd right before a big holiday weekend when no one will be watching the news??  

Something is going down that she doesn't want people to see.  That's JMO of course :-)

If it were something good, she would want all the coverage she could get.

I'm not a fan of hers, but I don't see how this could be good for her career. If she is doing this in order to prepare for the 2012 election, it just looks like a blatant attempt to further her own political aspirations, instead of fulfilling her oath to the people of Alaska.

You've gotta wonder about some people! This really doesn't seem like the best move if she has any major political aspirations down the road... not that I'm complaining. I'm not a fan of Palin in any way.

Call me a cynic, but that was my first thought - that some scandal is about to break and she wanted to step down before it leaked to the press.

After all of the stupid things she's said and done, and with her WT family, I cannot believe the GOP would still seriously consider backing her for the 2012 election.

I agree with the posters who think a scandal is about to hit.  She is an embarrassment to women in politics, IMO.   

In the (inane) speech she gave about her resignation, she mentioned that people made fun of Trig.  WTH?  I've never heard anyone in politics or the media make fun of the baby--that would be beyond the pale morally and political suicide to boot.  I love how she just makes stuff up.

Here's part of the speech if anyone wants to hear it.  I could barely follow a train of thought.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1tnUvtjaaY


In the end, it is not about the number of moments we breathe, but the number of moments that take our breath away.
