Because if people think she quit as governor they might not vote for her.
But if they knew she really just resigned (SHE DIDN'T QUIT!) to do more important things like go on Hannity’s and Geta’s FNC shows and point out how Obama is doing everything wrong (note that there is a shortage of Republicans willing to do that right now) it will be obvious to everyone how Presidential she looks and she may not even get opposition in 2012 because they will all be scared of her.

Some of these "Anti-Palinistas" would never make it in a real military battle, much less any political one ... LOL ...
Instead of "Blitzkrieg" ... bypassing small and inconsequential enclaves of opposition and "going for the goalposts" -- these Anti-Palinistas would have Palin sit there and slug it out, hit-for-hit on some small and obscure out of the way place, as if that was accomplishing something. What a bunch of "dolts" these Anti-Palinistas are.
Instead, Sarah Palin did a classic "breakout maneuver" and left that inconsequential battle behind -- to engage in the real battle for this country, "going for the jugular" and going after the "big boys" -- and not engaging with some "no-name loser leftists" in a place that hardly anyone would pay any attention to in a useless "war of attrition".
At least Palin is a whole lot smarter than these Anti-Palinistas are ... :-)
