Norm Semanko, chairman of the Idaho Republican Party, figures it’s a combination of intense media scrutiny, ethics investigations and mounting legal bills. But he says Palin fought the good fight. “Having been born in Idaho, and graduating from the University of Idaho, you have to be proud of the way she’s conducted herself and handled things,” Semanko said/2NewsTV.

ABC caught up with her yesterday:
“As to whether another pursuit for national office, as when she joined Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., in the race for the White House less than a year ago, would result in the same political blood sport, Palin said there was a difference between the White House and what she had experienced in Alaska. If she were in the White House, she said, the “department of law” would protect her from baseless ethical allegations.
“I think on a national level, your department of law there in the White House would look at some of the things that we’ve been charged with and automatically throw them out,” she said.
There is no “Department of Law” at the White House”

“Fought the good fight”? Semanko’s high.
She quit. Write it down, remember it.
She quit. End of story.

“Department of law”
Now that’s funny.
Stick a fork in her, she’s done politically, but will make a fortune on the rubber chicken circuit and her book. God help her editor on that.
No amount of cramming as the poor demented Cal Thomas suggested today can save her.
Her only hope is for her image to be found in a piece of toast, and worshiped accordingly.

==================================================
I get the impression that has already happened.
I can envision the neocons laying in their beds with personal effects on their nightstands and a Sarah Palin pic on the pillow beside them.

Given an image of SaraCuda AND Jesus on a Dorito, anything could happen.

Silas Parks also graduated from the UI - is Norm “High on Crack” Semanko also proud of him?
And really, the way Palin speaks English as a second language doesn’t exactly give high recommendations to her education, does it?
