Opinion from Alaska
What do you think of Gov. Sarah's Palin's surprise announcement Friday that she will step down from office?
It's disappointing she won't be finishing out her term as governor.
It's exciting, particularly if she's resigning to seek a national office.
It's a sign that she is unable to handle the rigors of public office.
