I don't think so....I thought once upon a time, she was a pretty good governor You forget that she had a very high popularity number before she was nominated. But when she got nominated and went on that campaign trail with McCain, it changed her for the worst. Upon her return, she changed into something like an egomaniac. More dogmatic, more tunneled vision and more obstructionist in nature. It went to her head as if Alaska became too small for her and she was too big and important for our state. And she been riding on that surf as long as she could until it lapped itself ashore. And now she been beached and now she is "irrelevant". Thing was, she has been "irrelevant" for a pretty long time but no one told her about it. If she wasn't nominated in 2008 and didn't go on that campaign trail, she may have end up as one of our most popular governors and probably be sitting in the US Senate by now!! You may consider her fate to be tragic.
