Levi Johnston: Palin Resigned Because Of Money

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — The former fiance of Gov. Sarah Palin's 18-year-old daughter says he thinks he knows why the Alaska governor is resigning _ concerns over money.

Levi Johnston, 19, whose wedding to Bristol Palin was called off earlier this year, says he believes the governor is resigning over personal finances.

Johnston says he lived with the Palin family from early December to the second week in January. He claims he heard the governor several times say how nice it would be to take advantage of the lucrative deals that were being offered, including a reality show and a book.

"I think the big deal was the book. That was millions of dollars," said Johnston, who has had a strained relationship with the family but now says things have improved.

13. What is that supposed to mean?
She doesn't live in a mobile home. And are you implying that mobile home dwellers are idiots like her?

6. If it's true I wouldn't be surprised.....
Palin like most repugs ALWAYS put themselves first before the people they serve. That "Country First" slogan should have been "Money First".

9. She's moving to the NE within 6 months. You heard it hear first.
She's just too big for Alaska now and Alaska is not cosmopolitan.

17. Probably More Like Texas Or Idaho
Mooselini likes the bright lights and the stores (cue the Green Acres theme)...but she'd never make it in a Blue state/area. For her sycopathic grifting to be effective, she needs lots of "like-minded" zombies around. A Palinpalooza rally in New York would draw more flies than people...but in Wyoming, she'd be a superstar.

18. She would be better recieved in TX bu it's too hot for her.
She won't settle for fly-over country even though she would be better recieved there.

Despite this whole Letterman blow out she still is attracted to NY. Just like NY is home to Limbaw, she won't care that most of the state will be hostile to her.

Cue the Beverly Hillbillies theme. NY, here comes the Wasilla Hillbillies!

19. Rushbo Didn't Last Long In NYC...
He was "based" there when his show first got rolling in late '88, but moved to Florida in the early 90's. It was reported at the time that New York made him miserable...shunned by most in the city and divorcing one of his wives in the process.

Mooselini probably would love the stores, but she's definitely an outdoors kinda girl...Tawd couldn't go "slayin'" fish and she'd be a small fish in a big pond. A place she may settle is Arizona....quite a contrast to Alaska, but still fairly red or even a Washington or Oregon which would be more suited to their lifestyle.

Either way, you can just see she's "outgrown" Alaska and it sure looks like Alaska had enough of her.

15. Well then I can't fault her. However, if she does try to turn it into a bid for 2012...
I, like most DU'ers will be verbally relentless !
