Not surprising given the 24/7 lambasting and abuse by a very biased media focused on character assassination at the behest of insecure liberals afraid of someone that stands head and shoulders above the ethically challenged. They fear accountability and personal responsibility and Palin was used to take the focus off their own personal and professional deficiencies. But don't count her out, Palin can now spend her time pushing back on a national stage without the distraction of the Governors office. Fox News reports:

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin shocked the political word Friday by announcing that she will step down at the end of the month and transfer power to Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell.

Palin made the announcement from her home in Wasilla, flanked by her husband, Todd, and family and state commissioners.

The announcement came on the same week that one of her top public health officials says she was forced out of office because Palin felt she wasn't in step on social issues.

Palin's decision now allows her to avoid the difficult task of running for president while serving as governor.

Todd Palin told FOX News that his wife will concentrate on "doing the things for Alaska and the country" that she is passionate about and can not do as governor with the limitation and constant opposition she deals with within the state.
