You, sirs, are an unprincipled morons. I have read exhaustively on the subject of her resignation – having been deeply disappointed in her judgement when it happened. Upon learning all of the facts of the matter and listening and reading her account of the incident, I was the one who had to change my opinion – not her. She showed great character in putting her family, her state and her constituents ahead of any personal ambitions that she may have had for the future. It was a move necessitated by forces allied against her for their own political gain, attacking her where she was most vulnerable – she was not rich, not able to take on the hundreds of thousands of dollars in personal liability that follows from defending herself against frivolous ethics complaints. I would not have been able to do so, I suspect that you would not have been able to either. Instead, she stepped aside for the good of those who elected her. Her Lieutenant Governor was elected in his own right – a feather in both their caps – and she has turned the table on her enemies by working to become a reasonably wealthy person. Her books are very successful. She makes a good living though public speaking and television appearances. That’s what we’re all supposed to do – work hard and provide for our families. In retrospect, I am sorry that I doubted her when she quit. Now I see it differently and support her decision. And since this is not the first time she has had to step aside for the greater good, those who are taking our nation down the wrong path had best watch their back. She is not going to take little swipes at them – she’s going in for the kill. Now she stands as the most outspoken critic of the TRAITOR that occupies the White House. When she tweets, people listen. It’s time for both of you to leave the room.
