If she's the party, whether on Fox on in a 2012 Presidential Primary, the party is over. She makes Mark Sanford's meandering public confessions seem a little saner. Or maybe she just earned herself the next room in the sanatorium.
From Josh Marshall, quoting the speech:
The potential real reason:Life is too short to compromise time and resources... it may be tempting and more comfortable to just keep your head down, plod along, and appease those who demand: "Sit down and shut up", but that's the worthless, easy path; that's a quitter's way out.Quitters stick to it. Winners quit.
I've now been able to get independent information from multiple sources that all of this precedes what are said to be possible federal indictments against Palin, concerning an embezzlement scandal related to the building of Palin's house and the Wasilla Sports Complex built during her tenure as Mayor. Both structures, it is said, feature the "same windows, same wood, same products." Federal investigators have been looking into this for some time, and indictments could be imminent, according to the Alaska sources.She'll spin it, to be sure. Federal Obama government intruding into Alaska and personal life, political vendetta, blah blah. And her stupid, I mean committed fans will eat it up.The BRAD BLOG has not been able to receive confirm from any federal sources on this. Our information comes from local Alaskans who follow Palin, and who have been keeping an eye on this for some time, while keeping it quiet at the request of federal investigators.
Bottom line, though: same ol' same ol'. If true, just another narcissistic corrupt pol.
With a 'cuda smile.
