Quitting Doesn't Cut It

Dear editor:

Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska has once again surprised the country by resigning her office at the end of the year. She used the analogy of a basketball point guard passing off to another player and letting them score for the team. Yes, this happens all the time in basketball, but what Governor Palin fails to realize is that the point guard doesn’t leave the game but rather stays for the next play either offensively or defensively. They don’t quit.

Mrs. Palin also stated that she is doing what is best for the people of Alaska. Does that mean that they are better off without her? Interesting thought.
