Resigned On The 3rd Of July: Sarah Palin Steps Down As Governor
Posted on July 3, 2009 at 4:51 pmJim Geraghty breaks it down:
Way back on Tuesday, I wrote about Sarah Palin, “I can only imagine a life running a state while caring for a son with Down syndrome and a son in Iraq and a daughter who is a new mother in the sharp glare of the public spotlight and a grandson and another daughter suddenly appearing in David Letterman’s routine. This may not be the right time for another go-round in a multi-year process in which vast swaths of the political world will aim to see her torn down to nothing. She’s 45 years old; it’s not like the window is closing.”
Perhaps, it became too much.
Not finishing her first term will provide a major, major, major obstacle to any presidential bid. I thought a 2012 campaign would be a mistake; from today’s comments, it’s not clear whether Palin is still interested in that option.
But the moment she expresses an interest in a presidential bid, every rival, Republican and Democrat, will uncork the ready-made zinger: “If elected, would she serve the full four years, or quit sometime in the third year again

LOL. Mitt Romney strikes again.
Sarah loves to campaign, it is the governing that she can’t do. Good luck, Sarah in 2012. We can’t wait to hear your lies about Obama again:
Palin in 2008: “How much experience does he have?”
Palin and crowd “ZERO”.
Let’s try that lie again, Palin and freepers. Maybe this time that sound byte won’t fly.
I feel sorry for her — that is to say, Tina Fey…
