Sarah Palin Resigning As Governor Of Alaska

 

Sarah Palin, 45, has announced that she will resign as the Governor of Alaska later this month. She didn’t mention anything about pursuing another office, but there has been plenty of speculation that she may be considering running for the U.S. Senate or the presidency.

In a speech from the backyard of her home in Wasilla, husband Todd and children Piper, Bristol and Willow at her side she said:

“It hurts to make this choice but I’m doing what’s best for Alaska.  You can effect change from the outside, and I can too.”

“We know we can effect positive change outside government.  I know the time when its time to pass the ball for victory. Trust me with this decision.”

She also mentioned that her son Trig, who has Down syndrome, needs her at home more.
