As I said in my earlier post, by dropping out he eliminates the opportunity to use the Begich votes to say that Alaskans were split on Palin.

They will say and do anything to try to undermine her popularity and credibility. That's why I think that having a unified GOP candidate going into the general election will take that character assassination attempt off the table.

This was a jungle primary - it was the electorate at large. She was the most well known candidate by far with 100% name ID. She got 29% of the vote (still counting). Not exactly an electoral juggernaut. Keep in mind it could also be risky for voters who don’t like Palin but would put her second if they turn out and vote - the most likely people to do that would be Begich voters. She’s about as unpopular in the state as Biden...so she will need second choice voters to win.
