Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin gave her final speech as Alaska's governor Sunday before stepping down from her post, telling a Fairbanks crowd that she is resigning "to chart a new course to advance the state."
"Now people who know me, they know how much I love this state ... I feel it is my duty to avoid the unproductive, typical, politics-as-usual, lame-duck session in one's last year in office," Palin said, just moments before Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell was sworn in as governor.
"With this decision, now I will be able to fight even harder for you, for what is right and for the truth," Palin continued. "And I have never felt you need a title to do that."
Palin announced in early July that she would step down this month. She has attributed the decision to tremendous pressure, time and the financial burden of a litany of ethics complaints in the past several months.
The complaints were without merit and took away from the job she wanted to do for Alaskans, Palin has said.
On Friday, Palin attended a farewell picnic in her hometown of Wasilla, and on Saturday, she attended another in Anchorage.

It's Saul Alinsky, 2T2. It just goes to show that you just parrot what you hear from Limbaugh and Lars Larson and Hannity and the other nuts. You couldn't even get your insult correct.
2T2, it's official -You have no interest in a reasonable, honest discussion. Everyone knows he wasn't talking about the 14 year old, and you reveal yourself by milking that comment.
Impolite? Wow...laugh of the day. This whole thread is dedicated to insults, sexism, hate, etc not only to Palin, but to anyone who disagrees with their spitting post. So as far as instructing me where to post and what people here like - please keep in mind that I don't care what you think. Your opinion means NOTHING to me. Notice how I made no personal attacks because I am above the mob you equate yourself with.
So citizens don't deserve a response - how "Stalinist" of you. Just WHO do you think investigates the backgrounds of presidential candidates? The CIA, FBI, or some government agency? They can NOT. It IS up to the people to do so and because they do lemmings call them made up names like birthers. Show the damned proof that he IS a natural born citizen and make the "birthers" look TRULY bad. What does your lord have to hide??
No, we do not. We...you,me, whoever posted above and below, have no right to see another citizen's private records unless they allow it. As for who investigates, each party investigates their own candidates as they run for the nomination. Each Secretary of State or Commonwealth is supposed to vet all candidates who appear on each state's ballot. The NSA vets Presidential nominees. And I am sure each campaign investigates it's opponent. Considering that he is now 7 months into his term and...
(cont) no one from these groups has issued even a suspicion that Obama is not eligible should tell you something. But no, you Birthers just keep showing your hatred for either a black President or a Democratic President by pushing forward with this ridiculous agenda without one iota of proof. Just keep wallowing in your hate and ignorance until you can produce some evidence. That should take you until Hell freezes over.
Masturbatory worship of this woman? So if this were a man would you have typed such a statement? You're a sexist and like all liberal/progressive/Marxist use it as a tool just as racism.
