Politicians double dip all the time. They run for a higher office while at the same time, they try to keep their current job. They either short change the people that they work for or they get some LTD. Governor to do the work while they still maintain their job title and salary.
Either case is LESS ethical then somebody who resigns their post to prepare to run for a higher office.
It's simple common sense really.
Yet, Old Hoosier and his can't-think-for-themselves, politically correct elk don't understand it.
