As I understand it, she felt that it was unfair of her to stay where she was because of the constant court cases brought against her, many for questionable reasons. It was a drain on the state's budget and was tying up her time, time she felt the state should have recieved. Wether that's true or not doesn't really matter, some will believe her and some wont.

I do suggest that the constant attacks she recives from the press and democrats in general, would indicate that she is feared as a potential power player in the future. Afterall, no one goes after a dead dog, it's the growling one you worry about. Again, how this plays out has yet to be seen fully, time will tell.

Personally, I think she will be down in the lower 48 and go on the attack before next summer.
