I'm with VDH   [Jonah Goldberg]

On everything except the idea that we can know she's not looking at 2012. In fact, as I said yesterday, her resignation doesn't make much sense to me if she's not looking at 2012.

Update: From a reader:

Unless her reason for stepping down really does have to do mainly with removing her children from the exposure of the continued vicious attacks of the left.  In this case, she has decided family first.... and is willing to take the short-term hits for "abandoning" her post.  In the long run, I think this is a plus with the conservative base.

Fair enough. It certainly is true that nobody in public life in recent memory has been as shabbily treated as she has.
