I think if you research in to the matter, he did not just "roll over". He was hunted, marked, attacked, and in the end outmaneuvered so that he literally had no choice.
It was DS Cabal vs Patriots, and the score was 24 to 4.
As far as I'm concerned, keeping your mouth shut and walking away, is rolling over. If I could take these people down with knowledge and proof, let them kill me for it. Anything short of that allows them continue and is, for all intents and purposes, rolling over. If you aren't willing to die for that which you truly believe, you don't truly believe it.
You are assuming his reasons for walking away were completely self centered and for self preservation. I don't think you have any real concept of what people who live in Nixon's world - ie president of a nation - think or deal with.
If he thought the only way to preserve the country was to retreat, then what?

If I could take these people down with knowledge and proof,
That's the thing. I think that at this juncture, Nixon clearly knew that he could NOT take them down. They had him outmaneuvered and out powered.
So, what? Go out blazing for your own sanctification, even though it would hurt the country even more and make anyone who follows later, make their job infinitely more difficult?
In military terms, sometimes a controlled retreat is the best option.

So, you keep Nixon on a pedestal, huh? Interesting.
