The big news–which will hopefully die down and vanish along with Sarah Palin–is that Palin abruptly resigned her position as governor of Alaska. Her delivery of the announcement was perhaps the most bizarre aspect of it all–an incoherent rambling nonsensical “stream of conscienceness” which offered no real explanation for the resignation; delivered without any warning even to those closest to her; given in her backyard (with geese honking in the background) late afternoon and on the day before a national holiday weekend; without any really warning to the press for coverage.

Maybe Palin hopes to become Obama’s adviser on healthcare? Or on energy, which she considers to be her “specialty?”

Anyway, I don’t want to waste space on Palin, but Andrew Sullivan (perhaps the foremost Palinologist of modern times) has a great blog entry about her resignation. So many questions, so much speculation, so few answers. What exactly, would cause the woman to completely flip her lid?
