Why do you say no?
Palin resigned because she was overwhelmed by investigations and public-records requests.
That is the Cloward-Piven strategy, and she cracked under it.

She didn't. She didn't want the state to suffer under the obstruction that was making her work impossible and cost the state ressources. She can fight back against the smears and work for America, Alaska and Conservatism more effectively without the shackles.

The benefits of her now being unleashed far outweigh any downside. If she "cracked and caved" she'd withdraw entirely from public life and put her politics to rest. That's not what's happening.

You mistake a tactical maneuver with a retreat.

And how is a public servant supposed to pay $600,000 in legal fees? No job should pay less than the cost of holding the position.
