This e-mail episode is definitely a plus for Palin. It is exactly the kind of thing that will chip away at her high unfavorables among the middle and improve her standing even among Republicans. If that continues--Palin as "dedicated honest public servant" rather than the perception of her as a lightweight reality-show celebrity--it will help her chances greatly.
Charles, you can keep banging the drum about her high negatives all you want. It is still a year and a half or so out from the election.
At less than a year from the 1980 general election Reagan trailed Carter by more than 30% in some polls and they were saying the exact same thing about him.
As they say, history repeats itself.

It is still a year and a half or so out from the election. Yes, and this is a step in the right direction of what needs to happen for her. This is a good thing.
I think Palin is one of the four possibilities who could win the nomination (Pawlenty, Perry, Palin, Romney), and one of the three that I would be happy to support (Pawlenty, Perry, Palin). So the more that she can improve her chances of beating Obama, the better.
