As the party VP nominee in 2008, Palin was in the seat as presumptive standard bearer for 2012. She abrogated that position when she declined to run. Her sphere of influence has dwindled greatly as a result. I doubt the Elites consider her a ‘force’ in the party politics. She became little more than an ‘also ran’.

I fully agree with your premise. Sarah will make a viable Ali, but as a candidate herself, she has gathered too much moss, as well as baggage from her earlier behavior in 2011.
She could not easily step into a “Brokered” nomination and I think she would turn it down if it was offered to her.
She is doing what she is best suited for, as a staunch advocate for smaller government and lower taxes. Not to mention getting out of debt. But as the one to fix the mess? I don't think she is well suited for that task. For that it will take a Newt Gingrich or Ronald Reagan.
