She had no chance of coming back and running the state. Many Alaskans never forgave her for quitting the Governor job. Her popularity went from abnormally high to normal politician range over night.

That's why I love the family so.

No matter how far you stray from personal responsibility it's OK because it makes you like everyone else! (Well like everyone else who lives this life style anyway)

45 and knocked up? Virtuous

16 and knocked up? virtuous

That is what I meant...she did herself in by resigning and going on a bus tour.
I guess more money for her that way.

Palin is a nut and you can bet John McCain wishes he would have never picked her as a running mate.

She is also an embarrassment to the country.
