Those who criticise Palin for quitting the Governorship, should take a look at our Founding Father, George Washington.
He had NO desire to be President, and did so only because he was needed.
Others did the same with regard to service.
Palin realized that by staying she would harm her state, and left. If she was power mad, she would have hung on like the Democrats do...to the bitter end.
However, she chose to leave on a positive note, and has done a LOT to help the conservative cause.
In hindsight, her departure was a brilliant move.
