Posted by Scott Tribe on July 4, 2009, at 7:12 pm | I mean, they’re the reason to blame for the Governor of Alaska and the former VP candidate for the Republicans resigning her Alaska governorship early, according to her spokesperson:
Asked why Palin was stepping down as opposed to finishing her term (which ends in 2010), the RGA header cited pesky bloggers and activists as the reason. Palin had insisted she didn’t want to put Alaskans through two years of a lame-duck governorship. “I don’t think this is buckling to pressure,” said Ayers. “I think this is her coming to the realization that the legislature in Alaska and that some bloggers and activists in Alaska are going to do everything they […]
Posted by Scott Tribe on July 3, 2009, at 5:07 pm | There’s a bit of speculation as to why she’s suddenly done this. Is there a brewing scandal? Is it a break from politics? Is she trying to concentrate on trying to get herself nominated as the Republican Presidential candidate in 2012?
Regardless, it seems appropriate to re-post this video:
UPDATE @ 7:53pm: A rather incoherent resignation speech, wouldn’t you say? On another point (slightly off-topic), for some reason, the lead singer of the above video reminds me a bit of Saskboy, who’s my webmaster at Progressive Bloggers and also runs his own blog.

UPDATE: Your latest revelation: Ms Palin’s reformer reputation takes a hit:
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin employed a lobbying firm to secure almost $27 million in federal earmarks for a town of 6,700 residents while she was its mayor, according to an analysis by an independent government watchdog…”She certainly wasn’t shy about putting the old-boy network to use to bring home millions of dollars,” said Steve Ellis, vice president of Taxpayers for Common Sense. “She’s a little more savvy to the ways of Washington than she’s let on.”
Posted by Scott Tribe on September 2, 2008, at 11:30 am | So my blogging colleague Antonio over from Fuddle-Duddle has been trying to tell me how much of a game changer this Sarah Palin pick would be for McCain and the Republicans. He never expressly said it would help the Republicans and McCain win the Presidential election, but I got the feeling he believed it was a positive for the McCain campaign.
There is no doubt from what I’ve seen that she does excite the Republican wingnuts base, and why wouldn’t she? She’s anti-abortion, she’s for teaching creationism in schools alongside evolution in science class, she’s pro-oil drilling and anti-environment, she’s for teaching abstinence-only to teenagers and not safe-sex courses.
