Palin quits again...
Sarah Palin dropped out of a 5k race on Thanksgiving Day in Kennewick, Wash. The former vice presidential candidate and Alaska Governor quit the race because she wanted to avoid the crowds that were waiting for her at the end, according to The Tri-Cities Herald.

Palin was 1 of about 3,000 participants. The paper reported that her presence drew a "mass of onlookers." Palin announced that she would be running the race on Twitter.

3. I don't get the whole "Look at me / don't look at me" thing.
This woman needs a good therapist.

4. Once again leaves her fans early
Didn't take the time to sign all the books or even finish a 5k run. You'd think her "fans" would figure this out, she doesn't care about them or their time.

10. She's utterly pathetic.
I find it hilarious that she's a darling of the republican party.

12. To save time...
...she should just overnight cardboard cut-outs of herself to events she doesn't really want to participate in.

She should include return postage, too, in case one of the cutouts is accidentally nominated for president.

15. When it became apparent she wasn't going to win, she decided dropping out
And blaming John McCain's campaign team for it was the best thing to do.

18. No Show Sarah!
She's making Gil Scott-Heron look good.

Well, he's awesome. If only he would show up to play when he says he's going to do so...
