She is playing ‘The Shrewd Servant’, I think:
She cannot succeed on her own, or our behalf...for the benefit of a return to our founding principles.... with the established conservative [INO or otherwise] party arrayed against her as an enemy.
She's playing a prudent hand, I surmise,

It ‘s more helpful if your ideological adversaries in your party are somewhat indebted to you. Graham isn’t running in 2010, so there is no endorsement, more likely her donation is to repay something that happened in the 2008 race. Politicians do help each other.
We are at a time in the 2012 campaign where candidates are helping candidates that they believe will be elected and gathering chits that will be redeemed later in the campaign in 2012 and hopefully later. Sarah has a lot of clout and she should collect a lot of chits to be redeemed when appropriate.
Sarah knows how to get around opposition within her own party and to play them like a fiddle. Sit back and watch a master in action.

Her only SarahPac recipients that I can find:
Murkowski
McCain

Gee, it’s too bad she’s not playing the shrewd servant to any conservatives.
