Sarah's Stepping Down?!?!

Ok, this has got to be the biggest surprise since, well, since McCain picked her as his VP, or maybe since the various shocks of her incompetence during the campaign. So, Sarah Palin is stepping down as governor of Alaska? Why? Why now?

My thinking is that there's GOT to be something more to this story, and I imagine, and hope, that it will come out. Perhaps that baby Andrew Sullivan kept asking about really wasn't hers? Perhaps there's something else out there we don't know anything about? Perhaps someone's blackmailing her?

Clearly, the woman has been a pretty terrible governor. All kinds of problems with abuse of power and questionable ethical decisions. The embarrassment caused by her complete idiocy displayed all over the country during the campaign with McCain. Plummeting approval ratings since people started looking at her closely after McCain's obtuse selection of her. Still, though - why not just avoid running for re-election? I can see absolutely no way in which this helps her political future. So weird!
