Why did Caribou Barbie resign?
Why is Sarah Palin resigning as Governor of Alaska? GOP leaders are spinning this as her desire to become a national reactionary leader.
I guess she misses her base, and we’ll probably see a resumption of the old Palin “hate” rallies, this time without McCain around to moderate the hate.

“Caribou Barbie”… or “Bible Spice” (another nickname I saw floating around yesterday)?
Though I think my favorite is D-Day’s description of her as Sacha Baron Cohen’s greatest character.

I’d guess that she thought that she’d have a better chance for the VP/Presidential nominations than if she stayed in office. It’s easier to be a critic than to actually run things… especially during the bad times.

I have 2 theories – one realistic & one my happy dream:
She wants to make a shitpile of money & that is harder to do as gov of a shithole state that has media on the lookout for corruption.
Or
Levi is going to court to get possession of his TWO children.

She resigned simply to piss us off yet again.

She resigned because she wants the cool kids to like her.

She couldn’t handle the heat/cold so she got out of the kitchen/Alaska.
