I thought Palin quitting...was because of the way AK politicians must defend lawsuits. The citizens pay.
And also were there not many totally bogus lawsuits?? But had to be litigated anyway?
It was my understanding....that she quit, thus saving the citizens of the State of AK...thousands of $$.
I dunno...I've owned positions in stocks...that went against me, and I took my losses. In order to not take MORE losses.
I've had other investments...that I got out of, before I lost my shirt. I never thought that was quitting....But always that was sound business practice.
Granted....I'm not 100% sure that's how it went down for Palin...but that is what I remember reading.
FWIW-
The Undefeated also depicts that the previously cooperative legislature dug in its heels to oppose everything she wanted to accomplish for political reasons. Thus, her lt. guv was in a better position to take over and keep Alaska moving ahead.
Rove of course is himself incredibly thin-skinned. He’ll take unfair hacks at people for his own personal agenda, but let someone point that out and then he really gets vicious for it having been pointed out.
When she resigned the lawsuits had cost Alaska $2 Mil already. All of the lawsuits were dismissed. One was for holding up a dead fish. No. I don’t know what the point of that suit was. Another for having a logo on her coat.
