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.
