He came (literally), he saw, and he profits. Republican's love small business. Help a brother catch the bus.

Democrats are afraid of Palin as a threat to national security with her bimboism, not her platform. The platform is a proven loser.

I detest Sarah Palin and believe she is a vindictive airhead. That said, I think it is inappropriate for Levi Johnston or anyone else from the governor's personal life to be taken credibly and to comment on why she has done anything when they have their own agenda.

I am willing to bet that Levi is only saying this about Palin to get his own back and more than likely this person was never going to vote anyway. At any rate, why would anyone listen to speculation from him about why Sarah has resigned? How could he know? He was hardly a confidante of Palin's. This is ridiculous and represents the press digging to keep this issue relevant and in the news--pretty pathetic.

Sooner or later, Palin will let us know what her motives are--either that or events will unfold separate of her which will underline her reasons for resigning.

Whenever someone just doesn't get it. The modern reply is, "Your going all Palin on me!"

She was intimidated by great Muslim hair and truth. Two bad things for Republicans.

Interesting that Levi is also pursuing a book and movie deal. Sounds like hes the one pursuing the dollars. I dont blame him, being a carpenter is hard work.

As far as the money thing with Palin, it doesnt hurt to do what you love and make money doing it. Its pretty much everyones dream so lay off the woman, you'd probably do the same thing.

Okay, your opinion.

You don't seem to understand the difference between private enterprise and public office...

And clearly you didn't get the tone of my post. I don't have any hate to get over... that's absurd that you even imagined that by what I wrote

Yikes.

And I am laughing my fine a... off about the jealousy and walk away with more comment....

What a little dirtbag. I'm very sure his relationship with the family is going to be "peachy keen" after shooting off his mouth to get his "15 minutes of fame" Even if Sarah Palin decides to accept any book or other offers, isn't it their families business. I'm sure with all the legal fees it would be a smart move having to support a large family with the economy being royally screwed up by the Democraps. I'll bet you a dollar to a donut, Bristol is not getting much help from that little twit. I'll bet Grandpa and Grandma are footing a lot of the expenses. The only thing that makes me mad about the Palin family was I heard that they were going to be doing a lot of fishing, and they didn't invite me to go along. I love Salmon

Rush Limbpaw is not old news, he's perfected the at of keeping old fish in front of the public eye. So will Sarah, just wait and see.

His extended "family" (and I use that term loosely) with the exception of Track, Piper, Willow and Trig, don't deserve his or any of our respect, they have earned our disrespect.

Let me ask you, would you be proud to be related to the Palins?

It is about PRECEDENT.

If Sarah Palin is allowed to resign without clearly definable reasons (that anyone could at least, understand) ... and she does not suffer considerable penalties. . . .

That's just plain silly. She was a governor, not a godess. She could, and did, quit for 'personal reasons'. Happens every day - people quit there jobs for a myriad of reasons. Every person that has ever worked in any capacity had initially given the impression, stated outright or implicitly implied a committment - otherwise they would never have been hired or elected. Where does it say - anywhere in any elected office - that you can't quit? Get over the hate lady. you're just jealous she can walk away with more than you.

So, if a member of your family was an alcoholic and went out and was arrested for a DUI that was public record, and stuck into the slammer for 90 days, you would keep it quiet?

If a member of your family was an investment banker who cheated millions out of billions of dollars you would keep it quiet?

Sorry, but parents and grandparents who don't act honorable don't deserve their children's respect, family or no family. Sarah's quitting in the middle of the game, and causing great trouble and expense for the entire state of AK, when there was absolutely no need for her to do so, wasn't honorable.

If Sarah had been embezzling money then I'd respect her decision to step down. But, that didn't happen. All that DID happen was that Sarah's political advisors told her "guess what, everyone hates you so your not going to get any more of your pet projects through the legislature" and she decided to take her ball and go home. She could have simply stuck it out and tried working with her critics until the end of her term, that would have been the honorable thing to do.

Book deals?? LOl what moron would waste the time and money writing a book about this right wing has-been who never-was?
She Gov's a state with less people than Nashville.

"Levi: Palin Quit To Cash In On Fame"

Fame? WHAT fame? only thing Ive seen is her quitting mid-term when things heated up, and seeing her "abstinence" family values program she hoped to make national totally FAIL as shown by her kid who got knocked up by a dude whose original myspace profile (before it was set private and changed) said he didnt want kids.

Must have been mom forgot to tell him about birth control in her zeal to teach "abstinence" LOL
