Comments on the Palin Resignation

Here's one comment, from a conservative source, on Governor Palin's resignation: http://pajamasmedia.com/eddriscoll/2009/07/03/gov-palin-resigning-in-weeks/

Here's another: http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/palin-resignation-shocks-political-world/. I liked this woman's comment: "The timing of this announcement is very odd for someone who is trying to execute a strategy to get into the White House in 2013. Not only is this a “Friday afternoon news dump,” but it is the mother of all Friday afternoons. Because many people are taking today off and left their homes yesterday for the beach, the lake, the camp, or the hiking trail, we’re well into a three-day weekend for many. If the governor wanted widespread publicity for this unorthodox move, she could not have picked a worse time."

And here's one from Philip Rucker of the Washington Post. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/04/AR2009070402761.html?wpisrc=newsletter

Jazz Shaw characterizes Palin's move as "political suicide." http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/palin-commits-political-suicide/
