As an Alaskan, we are all VERY tired of Hollywood and their slams against our recent governor. She is a real person just like anyone else. Has a family, a spouse, and sorry....probably goals like most of us do. We are all very shocked at her choice of bowing out of office, and are very heartbroken. Its clear to me why she did it....I would have too after the chilly welcome Washington and the Obama campaign. Its over, now leave her alone! At least she had the balls to try for the VP position, instead of sitting back and "wishing" it would happen. Go pick up your tabloids and start slamming some other person who deserves it! Sarah certainly does not deserve this crap!
