After listening to Sarah Palin's resignation speech and reading the response from the Left, I'm starting to believe she has been seriously underestimated by everyone...myself included.
I applaud her decision to resign. It has to be extremely difficult to raise a family and run a state while constantly being forced to defend yourself from a highly aggressive media.
I can understand (but don't approve of) their attacks on her character during the 2008 campaign. What's a political race in the U.S. without a truck load of mudslinging? What has me baffled is why it continued so long after the elections?
She's up to something and the Liberals are veritably trembling in fear. Look at the total lack of substance to her announcement in the Comments section of this article. Lots of name calling, but nothing that really shows her being a bad governeor. I'll copy/paste some of my "favorites" here:
"Great speech, I did not know Trig was such a good speechwriter!" -b93950
"She brought it ALL upon herself. She didnt have to say yes to running for VP. And after the election was over. All she had to do was keep her mouth shut! Plus the fact that she was still parading her children around in public in thel ower 48, when she should have been in AK doing the peoples business. No sympathy from me." -Oldgeezer1
"More material for Stewart and Colbert! Yay!" -Harmony1812
And on and on...
Joe Biden doesn't believe she has been the target of a "political blood sport". There are simply way too many examples of this to site here. Do a google search and grab a sandwich.
None of this matters anymore. She's out of the political scene for good. There is no way she can hope to obtain political office after her resignation. I view that as a good thing.
Now she's free to say what she wants when she wants and to whomever she wants without concerning herself over GOP nominations. I, for one, can't wait until she does. I think, based on her resignation speech, she's really going to put the screws to the current regime.
I think the liberals know this too.
