So what? Again, would it have been better for her to work with corrupt Republicans? The key thing though is: Did she compromise or yield her conservatism to them?

She yielded to her opposition when she resigned. She is a nice woman, but she has demonstrated that she can't take the political heat while in office as governor.

My point is that liberals ran her out office...

No body ran Palin out of office. She ran away from a political fight on her own volition.

She is a nice woman. I wish her well. She has a place in the Republican Party. But that place is not in office.

She had 20+ junk lawsuits filed against her in rapid succession and they were filing against even as she was resigning.

She was over $500,000 in debt defending the lawsuits

She and her staff were spending 80% of their time on preparing for and defending against the self-same junk lawsuits.

She was unable to attend the business she was elected to do as Governor.

So tell me Sherlock what you would have chosen to do?

Get used to being wrong, and probably disappointed.

You are going to have to call her Madame President starting in January 2013 and lasting for 8 years.

Get the facts. Alaska's new ethics law contained a loophole that allowed anyone to bring about any allegation with the burden of proof on the public office. The state or any administration couldn't intervene on behalf of Palin, which means she had to pay the costs HERSELF. Palin racked up a $500,000 legal bill defending herself from the lawsuits.

If she would have "stayed and taken the heat," she would have been flat-broke and the lamest of lame ducks and totally taken out of any 2012 political consideration. Not to mention that Alaska was wasting millions looking into these false charges instead of using the money to benefit the state.

Nobody ran Palin out of office. She ran away from a political fight on her own volition.

The only alternative was for Palin to resign. The harassment and false charges did indeed drive her out of power.

She has a place in the Republican Party. But that place is not in office

Typical, pat on the head thinking. She should cheerlead and raise money but forget about running for the top spot. I vehemently disagree. I believe that Palin is suited to be President, and many others will agree with me.

She ran away from a political fight...

Sarah has run into the political fight like nobody else.

How can you not see that??

“She yielded to her opposition when she resigned. She is a nice woman, but she has demonstrated that she can’t take the political heat while in office as governor.”

That is a liberal Olbermann talking point.

She handed the Governorship over to a Republican and she now is the loudest voice attacking Obama on an almost daily basis.

Where are DeMyth, Romney etc?

Palin has a national stage and is in the fight bigger and better than ever...She’ll be announcing after the 10 midterms.

Get used to it.
