“Leaving the office in the run up to an election is also not quitting. If I am a Governor who is running for President, then it is ok for them to leave office, within reason. If I leave the Governorship 4 years before a general election so I can run for President, then that is stretching the bounds of reason.”
That’s incorrect. The unofficial campaigns have already started...see Mitt’s organization, reference Palin’s multitude of speeches regarding national issues.
“She only had a year or two left on her term. Why not just ride it out and say she is not running for reelection? It would not have effected her run for the Presidency at all.”
You’re showing your lack of political knowledge here. It’s really an ignorant comment.
