Strategist Ed Rollins: ' ... The reality here is her biggest mistake is walking away from the job as governor. She would have at least had a record to run on. She is going to have a partial record today that's going to be very incomplete. I found her very insulting to other governors.' House Majority Leader John Boehner: 'I like her a lot. But I think it will be very difficult for her to run in 2012 given everything's that's gone on in the last nine months.' Strategist Mike Murphy: 'She lacks any real accomplishment -- no military or private-sector career of note, no academic achievement beyond a frenetic bounce between five colleges, including a sun 'n' surf-oriented outfit in Hawaii.' Consultant Ron Bonjean: 'Governor Palin can now run for president without playing the balancing act of keeping Alaskan voters happy. While she has a core following, many Republicans are getting tired of the constant drama that surrounds her family.' Former White House strategist Karl Rove: 'Effective strategies in politics are ones that are so clear and obvious that people can grasp. It's not clear what she's doing and why.' Palin is 'putting herself on a national stage that she might not be quite ready to operate on.' Consultant Stuart Roy: 'If this is geared for her run for the presidency in 2012, it is one of the most politically tone-deaf decisions that we've seen.' Strategist John Weaver: 'I'm not smart enough to see the strategy in this. Good point guards don't quit and walk off the court.'
