		<description><![CDATA[Mike,

I think you are taking a skewed view of her interactions with the media...but never mind that...why&#039;d you think I&#039;m ok with her quitting?   I never even implied that.  Sure, I empathize with the pressure she feels, but that&#039;s a world&#039;s difference from saying I&#039;m ok with her quitting.  Quite the opposite, in fact!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Unbelievable you are ok with her quitting.  Every politican faces scrutiny.  Pundits on the left try to dig up dirt on the right and pundits on the right do the exact same thing to politicans on the left.  But, Sarah Palin would play the victim card everytime she had to defend herself and people on the right allowed her to get away with it. 
Throughout her time on the Presidental ticket she showed she wasn&#039;t qualifed as a politician. But, Charles Gibson and Katie Curic ask her questions that she can&#039;t answer and then she looks like a dear in headlights and it was the media out to get her.  But, enough about the left and the media. Bottom line she quit. I don&#039;t think there is a reasonable excuse for quitting. If you support her you should feel let down. People voulenteered countless hours stumping for her and she abandoned all of them. So much for her being a
