Palin's spokesman, Dave Murrow, would not say why the Republican former vice presidential nomineecandidate decided to step down, but the announcement stirred speculation that she would focus on a 2012 bid for the Republican nomination for president.
Murrow said Lt. Gov. Sean Parnell will be inaugurated at the governor's picnic in Fairbanks at the end of the month.

Interesting that this announcement arrived today, just after the publication of the Vanity Fair article. Interesting also that it arrived on Friday, the place in the news cycle that usually is reserved for stuff politicians want downplayed.

I've never heard of a governor resigning more than 2 years in advance of an election, to git ready fer it. Definitely a story behind this story.
