When in doubt, follow this...

Palin's salary as governor is $125K, and she owes about $500K in attorney fees.

She's still popular in Alaska, but she's no longer viewed as a "maverick governor," battling special interests. The office doesn't hold much clout in the Lower 48, so she is largely ignored by Washington insiders.

Her far-right base is going to support her no matter what, so the governorship serves no purpose as a platform, and may be a liability.

I see Fox News in her future. She'll make a ton of money. She can "quit" in a couple of years if she decides to run for office, or...

take the money and run.
