Why are they pissed? They should be happy - she's gone!

Well I think anyone who runs for and then wins an election for a government position ought to fulfill their obligations. Stepping down as a Governor is not like you just quit your job at McDonalds, they don't replace them that easily with someone as qualified. The Lt. Gov will now take her place, but I don't know much about him. Its a Cop Out.

jrh, your certainly right about her speeches, they are kind of "Country Bumpkin" in a way, but its not bad, just different than all the rest. Now Obama, that guy is a fantastic speaker, absolutely brilliant. Reagan was pretty good too, but my favorite was JFK.

So it is looking less like scandal, or a 2012 bid, but that she is just tired of being Governor. She signed a contract and took an oath, then quit with no explanation. You kids can play loyal all you want, she has shocked the republicans, she has shaken her party and her constituents trust, and nobody quite understands what the hell she is doing. Put all the lipstick you like on it.

I guess she will spend some time at home, then some time touring... speaking engagements... book tours. Cash in on her celebrity status, and throw her support towards someone else in 2012.

I guess... she needed to take this time off of fulfilling her obligations so that she can concentrate on being a celebrity while the notion is lucrative.

So are you the kind of professor that tries to push his/her own political agenda onto their students? Or do you keep an open mind while you're "philosophizing"?

I never push my own political agenda. I don't even have one (that I'm aware of). The only thing I tell my students is to be open-minded and I constantly remind them of one simple fact - that 320 million Americans CANNOT be represented by two parties who produce the same person every year (usually a rich white guy). In fact, it's a logical fallacy - false dilemma.

Dude - you easily win the award for best linker. Your articles and vids are classic.

Teachers pet? But then who's who?
