Yes, she did not finish her term as governor but she had far more important things to do. Had she not resigned, she would not have had the opportunity to boost the Tea Party and rejuvenate the Republican Party You claim that. Though she would have just been stuck with up holding her responsibilities that she took an oath to. But why allow silly things such as that to get in the way of bigger "agendas". I mean, there are already so few of those types in Washington, as is. Just another reason why I have apprehensions about her being CinC.

She has been more valuable to the country, being part of the daily Obama resistance, than remaining as governor of Alaska.
It was the right move.
There is nothing dishonorable about accepting a higher calling. Using your logic, Dwight Eisenhower should have turned down running the war in Europe so he could finish up his paper pushing duties at the War Plans Division in Washington. I mean, that's how ridiculous you sound...let's see, finish out my term as governor of Alaska or leading the charge to take power away from those who would impose socialism on America. What would YOU choose?
By the way, being elected to public office does not obligate you to finish the term. I think what Sarah did was honorable. At least she didn't go the Obama route - occupying the office while running for the next higher one. Obama spent his entire career doing that.
