Levi Johnston Says Sarah Palin Resigned As Governor Of Alaska Quit For The Money

You’ve got to admit that Bristol Palin’s baby daddy Levi Johnston is pretty brave to speak out against his former almost mother-in law Sarah Palin. Levi told the press why he thinks Sarah Palin quit as Governor of Alaska. Levi thinks Sarah Palin wanted the money and not the hassle connected to a life politics.

Levi Johnston, the former fiance of Gov. Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol, on Thursday joined the crowd offering up potential reasons for Palin’s decision to step down.

Johnston met with reporters to say that he heard her musing about a better life, one in which she could spend more time at home, reduce her stress, and accept the lucrative offers coming her way.

Back in December, a month after her election defeat as John McCain’s running mate, Johnston said that Palin “had talked about how nice it would be to take some of this money people have been offering us and just run with it, and saying forget everything else.”

Asked about Johnston’s remarks, Palin’s spokeswoman, Meghan Stapleton, said, “It is interesting to learn Levi is working on a piece of fiction while honing his acting skills.”

Johnston, 19, and his family have engaged in a public feud with the Palins over issues like whether his mother and sister could visit his son, born to Palin’s daughter Dec. 28, and respect. Now Johnston is the latest to join the rampant national speculation about why Palin made the decision to step down July 26 as governor. [SOURCE]
