Makes one wonder if he really did 'resign' or if Govenor Mitt 'made' him 'resign'......
The nosy wants to know....
Sometimes people do the right thing.
Whatever the reason.
Of course, with one's arm twisted around and up between their shoulders, and being frog-marched to the podium with the live microphone, and not being allowed to leave until the words "I resign" have been croaked out, it would SEEM to be coercion, but I submit that it was still an act of free will.
Because the alternatives were spelled out pretty clearly.
