Palin cannot get elected President *only* with the Conservative vote. And to anyone else but a true believer, this is going to look like she didn’t just drop the ball, she threw it over the fence. She’ll look like someone who cannot or will not complete a task that she sought herself. And if she will resign as Governor, why would she not resign as President? How can the average voter trust her?
I myself am more cynical. I think more will come out soon on her reasons. Illness, or scandal?
Maybe she found out just how many Republicans took money from Soros and Obama and decided to play a different game. She may be too honest for the nation we have now.
