"And though it's honorable for countless others to leave their positions for a higher calling and without finishing a term, of course we know by now, for some reason a different standard applies for the decisions I make."
Can someone remind me exactly who it was that didn't finish a term and then ran for President?

Are you trying to start something. First you call me a damn Republican and now you are implying that Palin is the new W. You ruined my whole day.
I think Ms. P is headed to Idabel to join you guys is what I think. The more I think.
btw - I saw you guys on the side of the road as I drove by. You were all looking hot and I was feeling very shy.
Yogi is on a roll today. I think that was even some flirting?
I love Ms P!!
Baloney, I only flirt with the good looking ones. I've never denied it.
I love Mrs. P also, in Alaska, or in the bamboo forests of Idabel.
We love Mrs. P too! Just not as President.
I'm not taking sides here. I wouldn't vote for her - too many issues to get through, no one would ever leave her alone, it would be a wasted term.
Here goes:
A lot of people have run for president or other offices, while holding offices - still during a term, and completely ignored the office that they were holding. When they were finally elected, they had to resign their office - abandoning their constituency, if you will. There was an attempt by a governor to sell the Senator's seat, if I remember correctly.
At first I thought this was a big deal but now I don't. I can remember one Senator last fall NOT going back to Washington to meet and debate on the bailout, because he said it was grandstanding or something like that. I believe he said it was taking away from the campaign.
Thank You Mr. Shaw! We forget how smart you are sometimes.
