Gov. Palin makes a great political move

bobmnu @bobmnu (8157) • United States 6 Jul 09

Governor Palin resignation took everyone by surprise and many feel it is a poor move and will politically hurt her. I think the move could be brilliant. First she is being measured against what every career politician would do,...
