I remember having a discussion about Sarah Palin quitting her elected position as Governor of Alaska, and the best defense anyone here could muster was that she was doing it to prepare for a Presidential run in 2012 (and therefore it was in the best interest of the people).Now that it's pretty clear that she quit for the sole purpose of advancing her personal wealth and fame (writing a book, taking a job with Fox News, etc), I think it's safe to say...Sarah Palin is a pathetic quitter who made no effort to uphold the role she promised her constituency she would.It bad enough that she can't uphold her own family's values (remember her teenage daughter got pregnant from an aspiring porn star), but to let down her constituency is just plain anti-American.She should be ashamed...
