MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell reports that Palin has had it with politics.
Given the pressure and criticism Palin has recieved from the media since she was announced as McCain’s running mate in August it is possible that Palin wants to get out of the lime light and return to a normal life. But, Politico has a story that says quite the opposite. Mike Allen reports that Palin will stay “extremely visible,” and will seriously consider a run for President in 2012. Bill Kristol thinks this is “a gamble,” but “it may be a shrewd one,” if she positions herself as the national leader conservatives are looking for.
