Palin resigns. What a shame.

Sarah Palin resigned today which is not news to many who follow this blog. What is sad in a way here is that she has become a target of a pathetic political class that includes both Democrats and Republicans. Whether or not you like her (and in the sense of full disclosure I do respect this woman for what she has done), she has handled herself quite well despite some of the most vicious attacks any politician has faced.

I don't blame her for bowing out as she has become a lightning rod for every liberal wacko who has a grudge and standing with a court in Alaska. I am sure Geoge Soros is laughing tonight thinking that he has eliminated another potential candidate against Obama next time around. Maybe if George Soros moves back to the United States, our citizens should take him more seriously but we are stuck with his influence whether we like it or not.

I often wonder if Barack Obama faced a similar level of scrutiny, we would not be referring to President Hillary Clinton. Just wondering.
