I have a queestion about this for anyone. When these “ethical” complaints were going on costing Alaska and the Palin lots of money and in the process defunding the Palin family of their wealth was there any consideration for the republican party to in any way help out Palin and the state of Alaska. It seems to me this is the chief reason she resigned. She figured she only had a little over a year to go in her term so she stepped down to save Alaska money and her family money plus she felt secure in doing this since she had confidenace in the Lt. Governor. Maybe if the national republican party had helped her out or defended her in some way she might still be the governor.
There was a Palin legal defense fund set up, but the maggots challenged that too as being unethical. Funds in it were tied up while the case was being heard. I don’t know the final outcome of that case — it may still be in appeal.
Not just these items. Alaska Dems had already been warned not to cooperate with her anymore. She knew it would be almost impossible to get the programs she needed passed.
The National Republican Party stood on the sidelines quietly cheering Pete Rouse's political hit squad while it was trying to bring the Palins down. The GOP-E want her dead politically just as much as the libs do.
Next for GOP leaders: Stopping Sarah Palin
I was on the verge of leaving the GOP just before he selected Sarah as his running mate. I stayed in to support her, and right now she's the only thing keeping me in the party. If it dumps on her again, and sabotages her campaign this time around, then I walk away for good. Period.
