Actually, there were two reason why she quit her job: 1) The frivolous ethics complaints prevented her from doing her job as Governor of Alaska; and 2) In a six month period she accumulated over $500,000 in legal fees.
How long would you stay at a job that: 1) you weren't allowed to perform because of other frivolous distractions; and 2) cost you eight times more than you made from the job? Not long I would imagine.

In Friday's press conference announcing that she'd step down as governor a year before her term ended, Sarah Palin made a point to mention the ethics charges that bogged her down in office. Fifteen probes took up her time, her money (she's $500,000 in the hole in legal fees), and $2 million in taxpayer resources. "We've won!" she crowed, going on to lament the cost of her victories. "That's money not going to fund teachers or troopers or safer roads. And this political absurdity, the 'politics of personal destruction' ... It's pretty insane my staff and I spend most of our day dealing with this instead of progressing our state now."http://www.adn.com/2010/06/24/1339431/settlement-of-ethics-complaint.html

Personally, I am ready for a candidate that feels the rights, concerns, and safety of this country supersede all other issues. It gets kind of tiresome to hear about our country spending so much money to stimulate and help the economies of other countries while ours is suffering. I would personally like a candidate that is not concerned with feel-good politics, but rather one that considers what is in the best interest of our nation, not other nations.
Second, those distinctly conservative ideals. Have you really listened to what she says in speaking about her conservative views. She is right there with Regan.
He went on to be arguably the best president in the last 200 years.
Where's GWB when you need him?
Some folks on here have made issue with her not having any experience for the job. So what kind did Obooboo have???????????? ZERO!!!!!!!
He was put into office by the likes of George Sorry Azz, and Bomber Ayers. Dang at least she's been in the mix, he's nothing but an empty suit who needs a teleprompter to talk. I may not agree with everything about her, but I don't see much else the RINO's have to offer up, and I imagine that the demicraps won't be backing ****oo again, I'd watch out for Queen Hitlery as being on the demicrap ticket again, or even worse the Wicked Witch of the West!!!!
I can't figure out why everyone hates her. I don't know if I like her or not, but I can't understand the hate.
