Given the situation, a deluge of frivolous ethics complaints, designed to render her ineffective in carrying out her duties, how exactly did she "forsake" (renounce, abandon) her oath of office?
Uh, she quit.(duhhh)
As much as I hate mentioning Gov. Palin with "He Who Should Not Be Named", this certain president has several REAL legal issues during his EIGHT YEARS. One being lying under oath about an certain sexual harassment case. Yet he was able to honor his oath of office despite not being able to pay his lawyers until his term was finished. )
Palin too could have found some conservative friendly lawyers who could have postpone her "frivolous ethics complaints" until she fulfilled her term, write a book and pay off her legal bills. )
If ole Slick Willie could do that then Mrs Palin could as well. )
There, was that so hard?

Uh, she quit.(duhhh)Nowhere in the oath is there a promise not to resign,
therefore she did not "forsake" (renounce, abandon) her oath.
In fact if she was unable to "faithfully discharge [her] duties as Governor to the best of [her] ability"
then resigning was not only the honorable and responsible thing to do
but also was demanded by and a fulfillment of the oath she took.
If you expect Palin to be guided by the same moral compass as Clinton
and seek to claim Clinton's behavior superior to Palin's,
then you have a problem that is beyond my capacity to correct.
