If Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm Had Resigned Instead of Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin is wading back into the warm bowels of victimhood, whining that everyone's pilin' on about her steppin' down.

Whatever your opinions, Palin and her family were savaged in a manner that went beyond any reasonable standard.

Apart from Dowd and Collins, Palin's crossed signals on quitting even prompted Karl Rove to weigh in. The point here: no speaker can afford to deliver a message that is self-contradictory.

Palin's resignation exemplified her ongoing mission to blame us for her misfortune; to be known as the victim of unfair treatment by the usual suspects in the mainstream media and blogosphere.

Like a true narcissist, Palin once again acted with a grandiose sense of self-importance, but she is really compensating for a deeper sense of shame.

Palin expects no one to wonder why in the world she would step down from the governorship, which is the only platform from which she can claim any political legitimacy. And we're not supposed to speculate? Come now.

Sarah's resignation confirms what her values actually are by defining what is most important to her. Governor Palin is going to keep as much of her newfound money as she can.

Some pundits have said that Palin's resignation is out of character. Hardly. Don't forget that she resigned from her last statewide office. Sarah Palin is a quitter.

Ms. Palin, you're simply a side-show freak in the corner of the Republican tent that everyone points and titters at as you continue to bark and sell tickets to your own dwindling, embarrassing performances.

It will take a 75 percent legislative majority to override Palin's veto -- no small feat in a rightward leaning state. It would appear to be a political slap shot headed straight for the net.
