Default Abandon the space station?

Rather than abandon Hubble it would seem to make more sense to abandon
the ISS and use the remaining parts to build a new smaller space station
in a Hubble compatible orbit. The current ISS is in a poor orbit to
please the Russians and produces very little real science. If we use
the shuttle to boost a small space station closer (orbitwise) to Hubble
we can have both, a space stetion (USA) and the hubble.
