Considering the fact she is now one of the main targets of the liberal left she made a great decision as a leader and will have to stand by it. That decision was to be fair to the votes of Alaska and not pull them into whats to come as the progressives attack her full strength to try and silence the truth. Yes she made a good decision in my eyes. She remove herself from being a liability to the voters needs and is now free to address the false accusation, you know by the same type of reporter whom refuse to address major corruption issues like ACORN, Communist in the White House, Climate Change propaganda... Sorry you do not like her move but guess what you get to deal with it.
She is the #1 target of the left, for good reason. She had a Leutenant Governor who would do a good job, and thus she could save the state from being attacked along with her. She figured she could take the constant ripping but the great state of Alaska no longer needed to suffer.
In quitting, she GREATER served the state.
