politically, she's a relic. She had some value when the tea party was a big deal.
Today, they're not. Today, the top GOP leaders are going out of their way to swing moderate. Rand paul, Rubio... they're all finding middle ground suddenly. Jindal too. They're doing it all at once, because their core values don't resonate with 51% of Americans, unfortunately.
Palin doesn't have monster intelligence. They didn't even let her appear/speak/pundit at the RNC... I mean, they had some seriously average guests, yet didn't give the rock star of the 2008 election even stand there with a smile and wave?
She'll have another show on TLC or one of those networks. She'll always be a favorite to some people, always have her niche. This isn't a "win" for her... A win woudl be to stick around as THE voice of the far-right conservative movement for all those debates, etc. however I think there are much brighter people who can articulate those positions and their values WAY better than she could. She shouts slogans. her analysis is just too weak to warrant staying power.
