Since, like
Quin, I was one of those who criticized Sarah Palin when she
quit as governor, I'd like to weigh in to clarify something. I
didn't have a problem with Palin quiting per se, I just expressed
my belief that her decision meant that she wouldn't be a credible
presidential candidate, and I wanted to push back against some of
the commentary suggesting that her resignation could actually
help her presidential prospects. Since there's not much
of a movement afoot to argue that Martinez should be president, I
don't think the resignation is as big of a deal.
