I would think mainstream 'Pubs see Palin as damaged goods and not a credible option.

Pork, gerrymandering, incumbency will do that.
Line item veto, term limits, mandatory retirement age, independent commissions to redraw district boundaries will help eliminate these. But this these changes will need to be enacted by the Congress, it will never happen. There is too much ego and money to go around and now there is Citizens United. Just about any district can be bought.
