I think Sarah knows she can do more good as kingmaker than as President.
She might, or might now win either the nomination or the office. Particularly in 2012;But in providing fundraising and publicity she can influence the direction of the party and the country. And she would put both before herself.

and, perhaps, she *doesn't* want to own what's coming 2012-2016; better to let the Democrats take the blame.

Maybe I'm wrong, but her moves look much more like either playing kingmaker to ensure that a true conservative wins the nomination in 2012 or running in 2016.

“... can do more good as kingmaker than as President”

In Alaska did she think she could more good as a kingmaker than as Governor?
