Gov. Palin is making a terrible mistake. She is allowing herself to be over exposed. There is no up side to poisitve press two years out and all down sides to negative or even neutral press.
Stay in Alaska. Do a GREAT job as governor and when the country is in the toilet in 2012 she will be greeted as a hero.
If she keeps allowing herself to be over exposed and her name batted around weekly, in 2012 she will be seen as just another politician. She will lose that “new comer” “Outside the beltway” glow. Let GZingrich and others keep the spotlight in these out years and return when the time is right.
She has spent a grand total of 9 days in the lower 48 since Jan. 1, 2009. 3 of those days were for charity fundraising events, 2 more were for the Evansville right-to-life-dinner and the Down Syndrome event (also fundraising for them).
The media, however, has been focused on her every day of this year. What would you suggest she do, resign her governorship?
I totally disagree with you. The Palins should stand up for their family. They have been hit time and time again by lame comics who get laughs by stupid crowds of drones! Sarah Palin should do just what she is doing and most of us respect her for sticking up for her family.
