I think she was a 2 year governor, but then went back for a bit, didn’t she? Didn’t she serve 3 years?
Cruz was class of 2012, so he’s at the 2 year mark now with the election next year. So it would be about the same, unless he were to not make it through the primary season or were to lose.
I suppose he’d remain the Texas senator.
I do get your point. I think Palin was unjustly attacked over her resignation. She didn’t have much money then.
She served 2.5 years (Dec 06 - Jul 09) before resigning thanks to frivolous lawsuits that were bankrupting her.
