What’s Next for Palin? An Alaskan Reaction
Sarah Palin has been a lot of things: hockey mom, a Miss Alaska pageant winner, a high school point guard, and a Republican Vice Presidential candidate. But in a few weeks, one thing she won’t be is Alaska’s Governor. On Friday she surprised the nation when she announced her resignation from the post. Joining The Takeaway to discuss Alaska’s reaction to the news, and to guess what Ms. Palin will do next, is Larry Persily, former aide to Governor Palin and a long-time Alaska journalist.
