I would have wanted a Governor Palin or a Senator Palin - not an ex Governor Palin to carry the ball in the future. Sounds too much like Romney's status for my liking.
Basically I would have liked her to be a rip roaring VERY VOCAL very Beautiful, gun toting Bible clinging very physically fit Governor from Alaska..............................................................the Biggest State, one of the most Important States, an Energy Vital State, a Strategically Located State, a financially secure State. She would have had all of these Credentials.
Instead she will be a rip roaring very vocal Governor... ...who quit, in the middle of the job, to do something else, that would help America more.
Time will tell.
but the worst thing about what Sarah Palin has done is that
it does NOT ESTABLISH A GOOD PRECEDENCE.
Otherwise our folks will start running away from public office at the first sign of some easily constructed left wing frivolous crap, with the excuse that Palin did it so it must be the RIGHT OK thing to do!
Hell, what happens when they hit you with real serious charges? Argentinian Appalachian Trail Adventure?
I mean Reagan was shot in his left armpit, the bullet grazing a rib and lodging in his lung! stopping nearly an inch from his heart! AT THE AGE OF 70! SEVENTY... and he didn't quit, didn't resign or vacation or any other kind of crap. He continued SEVEN MORE YEARS.
HE SHOWED LEADERSHIP based on HONOR COURAGE AND COMMITMENT......its time we again start clinging to those things as well.
Exactly. It’s not enough to just believe in the right things, you have to be a leader. And so far with Palin, I just don’t see it.
The sad thing aobut the GOP today is that the good ones bail (Palin), while the undesirable ones (Larry Craig, Ted Stevens) insist on staying until they get booted out.
