What scares me is the note that one of Alaska's senators will run for re-election. I'd rather have a moose in the Senate.

OBAMA'S A QUITTER. OBAMA'S A QUITTER.
I'm sorry, I guess I wasn't supposed to say he quit being Senator to the people of Chicago. It's not the same, right? Do you think he will quit being the President of the United States?

Palin consistently mucks up logic to present herself as a victim of the media. One of the reasons she's being criticized for bailing on her governer gig is because when politicians have stepped down from their post they have a clear next step and publicly announce it, but she has not done that. She's being snottishly vague, and that, amongst other obvious variables, is why she is unfit for any public office. Gosh, I sure hope she runs for president in 2012.

I smell a Fox news or Christian broadcasting network deal aside from the book someone will write for her.

Please write a follow up column titled "It Came From Chicago" about the thug who now occupies the White House. Include references to his ghost written book which has netted him millions from the dupes who bought it (including the mass purchases by the democrat thug machine). It looks like we have our own Il Duce!

It is completely amazing to me that anyone with common sense beleives Palin is a candidate for anything! She is an embarassment to those women who have brains & common sense.

Several told me, independently of one another, that they had consulted the definition of “narcissistic personality disorder” in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders—“a pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, and lack of empathy”—and thought it fit her perfectly.

You don't find this statement at all suspect ? If a conservative writer recounted meeting several people who had consulted Mussolinis' "Popolo d'Italia" and found his definition of Autonomous Facism to fit our President "perfectly",would you post it on your site?

I doubt very much that you would. This is drivel.

With a new governor for Alaska there may be some improvement.Like removal of aerial hunting with payment of bounty for killing of wolves. Aerial hunting is not a sport. Swimming is, evenwith sharks.
There may be an improvement in accountability of government funds for roads and bridges.
Less chattering, more substance.

Palin clearly showed she lacks the ability to communicate, she just opens her mouth and whatever comes out, oh well there it is. She talks like a "scattered brain" without making any sense and leaves one asking, what in the world is she talking about.

Sorry, I apologize I need to make some corrections here. Line four should have read, I would love to see you walk in her shoes.

"The world is LITERALLY her oyster." That's what Palin's spokesperson just told Anderson. These people (Palin and staff) just use words for spin, but not for conveying thoughtful, intelligent ideas.

Unless the world recently transformed into a giant oyster, and CNN didn't tell us...

I am a big fan of Anderson Cooper and want to comment on Sarah Palin.
I heard on the news today that she has been offered 7 Million dollars for a book deal. Could it be possible that she is leaving her job as Governor to get started on her book? With the debt piling up for her I felt it could be a possibility. Just a thought. I have not heard any newscasters mention that prospect. I would guess the sooner she gets started the better for her.

This is coming to you from the Napa Valley in Calif
Keep up the good work Anderson..

Sarah Palin is a beutiful person on the inside as well as on the outside. Stepping down is the right thing to do for the people of Alaska. I wish the media would stop attacking her and her family. It is transparent that when the media likes a person only positive things will be reported but when they dislike another only negative is reported about that person. I have lost faith in the media.

I tihnk Gov. Palin is being very honest about the waste of time and money that is happening by other politicians in her state of Alaska. I tihnk this was a wise and caring choice to make for Alaskans. She promised to work hard for Alaskans and to be honest, not to waste their tax money and time.

I watched and re-watched this announcement and still don't get it. She has replaced a specific reason for making this decision with folksy "aw-golly" speech and irrelevant, nonsensical sports analogies.

Why won't she just go away?
Stop the voices! We don't care about her teenage daughter that's a mother...the sperm donor that created her grandchild. They are an embarrassment to the citizens of the U.S. Let's focus on people that are putting their lives on the line for democracy in Iran. People that are starving in the United States. If Sarah Palin, wants to be in the news, then she should talk to Saturday Night Live. Get paid for being the comedian that she is!

I think she is getting a high paying job as a Lobbyist! Watch and see...it is all about money. With her family situation she needs whatever money she can get her hands on and as Governer she isn't making enough money. Money...money...money!
