In response to ""As much as I love the State of Alaska, I believe I can have a greater impact on more people by stepping down and being more active on the national" by pmb

here is what she said, not sure if that is from the speech or not

"So, we are here today at a changing of the guard. Now, people who know me, and they know how much I love this state, some still are choosing not to hear why I made the decision to chart a new course to advance the state. And it should be so obvious to you. (indicating heckler) It is because I love Alaska this much, sir (at heckler) that I feel it is my duty to avoid the unproductive, typical, politics as usual, lame duck session in one's last year in office. How does that benefit you? No, with this decision now, I will be able to fight even harder for you, for what is right, for truth. And I have never felt like you need a title to do that."

Responses:

When she says it's because she can't be effective as a lame duck that it gets seriously off track. By that logic everyone should blow off the last - pmb Jul 27, 10:03 3
- how can she be a lame duck, since she can run again? - tRuMaN Jul 27, 10:05 2
  - I know. It leaves out that she simply decided not to run again. -- nm - pmb Jul 27, 10:11 1
    - It's like she's trying to start some sort of Ultimate Quitting League -- nm - Beryllium Jul 27, 10:12
