Palin is a sitting Governor and has won a number of elections and has just come off a veep campaign that made her a national star.

Your man has squeezed out one lonely term has a Governor and failed in his other elections, he has nothing to do for the next four years other than fight to knock down conservative leaders that pose a threat to him and the only way that he can do that is through the media since he is unlikely to get elected to anything again.
