WASILLA, Alaska (AP) — Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin says she will resign from office July 26.
Her spokesman wouldn't say why Palin decided to step down, but the announcement stirred speculation that she would focus on a bid for the 2012 Republican nomination for president.
Spokesman Dave Murrow says Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell will be inaugurated at the governor's picnic in Fairbanks at the end of the month.

Didn't Palin say, if Hilary can't take the heat , she should get out of the kitchen. Who is getting out of the kitchen now? She was great when she was running everyone down, now she is getting back what she deserves.Report a Violation

No one is concerned that, should Mrs. Palin be elected President, she won't "hear a calling" somewhere else, or have all the negative press she can take, or whatever... and decide that she's done, finsihed, she quits as President?? She didn't complete her term as Governor - why would she complete a term as President? Commitment to the job is kind of a priority, isn't it?Report a Violation
