Today's Poll Question

What is your reaction to Sarah Palin’s resignation as governor of Alaska?
If she gave up her elected duties as governor just to run for president in 2012, I think it is very wrong. She gave up on her state 2 years into her term.
If it is for personal reasons, I could understand.
