Panned by Rove + Silence from Rush = Kiss of Death for Palin from the Twin Spinners of GOP Reality
Paul Begalla listed a number of instances when Sarah had decided to leave various positions she had initially campaigned for. She is not a hard worker and truth be told she is finished with politics in Alaska and vise a versa. She is looking for greener pastures. But I doubt there are any for her to be had.
It's "Begala," by the way, and as he pointed out, she has quit every job she's ever had or held, and in the case of public office before her term(s) expired. There is a pattern here, people, regardless of what one thinks of Sarah Palin or her politics.
She doesn't want to work because if she did, she would have hunkered-down in wherever it is she lives, done her job, kept her mouth shut, and brought in experts on foreign and domestic policy to tutor her on all of the things she plainly doesn't know or understands. She doesn't want to do the hard work of studying and preparing, she simply wants to rant & rave, and skim the benefits.
She IS "looking for greener pastures," however, and that involves green, as in cash, for speaking enagements, books she won't or can't write, and other means of making millions off her looks and fractured syntax.
Nice "work" if you can get it.
And enjoying being viewed as a "martyr" that was driven out by the press. This is the move that few have uncovered. Her supporters will be building shrines for "poor Sarah" while she rakes in the bucks and looks pretty for the camera. Not such a "dumb" move after all is said and one.
Absolutely not necessarily!!
Speaking of casuistry and poison penmanship, let the acid bath begineth...
I can't prove this is true, but it sounds in keeping with Palin's over-inflated sense of self----
I read from an blog from a woman who lives in Wasilla that when Palin announced her campaign for mayor, she announced that one day she would be President.
Hmmmm.
