Sarah Palin Resigns as Governor of Alaska










Alaskan Governor, Sarah Palin, announced Friday that she would be stepping down from her position as Governor on July 26 2009. Palin will be handing over her duties to Lieutenant Governor Sean Parnell.

In Palin's announcement she stated the reasons for her resignation were:
1. Mounting expenses and hours of tax-payer time wasted on numerous ethics complaints. 
2. A decision that she would not seek a 2nd term as Governor and that Palin views her lame duck status as inefficient "politics as usual."
3. Responsibilities to her family and the toll that "mean-spirited" attacks have taken on her and her children. 

What do you think of Palin's resignation and announcement? 

We can understand her desire to not run for re-election, but find it quite strange that she is choosing to resign. We think that there is more to this story and perhaps there are additional skeletons in this woman's closet. Only time will tell...
