Your Patton reference is really out of context. I don’t normally use “military” terms to describe non-military issues but how about thinking about the governorship like this. Sarah withdrew from a poor position in an untenable battle to conserve her forces and is in the process of regrouping to start another battle in the larger war. Patton was pulled out several times to go somewhere else where his abilities would be better suited.
One of the better jobs I had in the army was to develop a staff ride about Patton in the breakout in France. It was a great two weeks we had retracing his movements, decisions, and steps. In more than a few ways Sarah has some of his better traits.
