07/06/2009 Sarah Palin announces she is resigning; Marion wants Gitmo prisoners

By resigning as governor of Alaska before completing her first term, Republican Sarah Palin may enhance her long-term political opportunities. So says Thom Serafin, President and CEO of Serafin & Associates, Inc. and Fox political analyst. Where ever she goes, the lights go on, Serafin says. In this appearance on Fox, Serafin also says that moving terrorism suspects from Guantanamo Bay to the federal prison in Marion, Illinois a move that the towns mayor favors would help grow jobs in southern Illinois. President Obama is from Illinois. Dick Durbin is the most powerful member of the United States Senate, he says. If theyre going to send any of these prisoners and any of these federal dollars anywhere in this country, why not Illinois and employ Illinoisans?
