Are you really saying that's why she resigned as Governor of Alaska? It seems to me that if you campaign for elective office and win, it's because you wanted the job. But apparently, if you have the facts right, people only run for elective office because of the salary. Furthermore, the President's actual salary wouldn't enable her to buy the Taj Mahal, either.

I have to give her kudos for exposing corruption in her own party. Apart from that, I know very little about her and turn the channel when I see her on tv. It's a sound aesthetic thing.
Watch her debate with Joe Biden in 2008. Flat-out refused to answer the questions.

As expected, just another loser who cannot answer the question. You are quick to condemn when you do not have the vaguest clue of what you are talking about. She resigned her position because she was not allowed to perform the job for which she was elected. That was not fair to her, or to the state that elected her. Alaska elected a Governor, not a professional defendant who spends their entire working day in court. By resigning and making Sean Parnell Governor she returned the state back to the voters, instead of allowing liberal freaks to continue holding the state hostage.
