Breitbart.com has a post up on the resignation of Sarah Palin. Although I am sorry to see her resign as Governor of Alaska, I am sure the decision was thoughtfully made. Governor Palin stated that she wanted to make a “positive change outside government.” Her approval ratings fell somewhat during the Presidential campaign because of the attacks on her from the press. Those attacks have not really let up, but from what I understand, her approval ratings are still very high.
Governor Palin has done a good job as governor, and I hope that she will remain a strong voice in the Republican Party. He unabashed conservatism is what is needed to counteract the massive spending and regulation coming out of Washington right now. I don’t know if she is ready to run for President–I don’t know if the country will accept her as a Presidential candidate–but I do know that she has some good ideas on how to run government efficiently and within a budget–and we need those ideas right now!
