So if McCain/Palin had won would you be complaining that neither stepped down from their offices during the race? Or is it really basically as Rat said- Obama=bad?
I think it was the right thing for Palin to step down for a number of reasons, one being her stepping down is in the best interest of the state.

I think it is honorable for Hutchinson to step down to devote her full energy to running for governor without any pretense, it is refreshing.

if McCain/Palin had won my view of them on this issue, in particular McCain would be the same compared to Obama/Biden. Seems like McCain has been running for President for about 20 years. Generally I have a problem with incumbent senators who run for president complaining about issues that they can have a direct impact on. I rarely support a sitting senator for president.
