So Sarah Palin just announced she's resigning her governorship, for reasons unknown. Some have speculated it's so she can devote herself to running for president in 2012, which would just be...completely insane, dear god. This is confirmed by Bill Kristol pronouncing it a potentially shrewd move. His approval is as good as a kiss of death.
ETA: TPM found the highlight of her (completely bizarre) resignation speech: "Life is too short to compromise time and resources... it may be tempting and more comfortable to just keep your head down, plod along, and appease those who demand: 'Sit down and shut up,' but that's the worthless, easy path; that's a quitter's way out."
Again...she said this in her *resignation speech.* If this level of ridiculousness were intentional, she'd be among the greatest comedians of our times.
