I’m still deciding what I think about this. My initial reaction – before I heard her speech (which was more of a meandering ramble, really) – was “what the heck is she doing?” Not sure that question was answered even after sifting through her speech to find her stated reasons.
Her ”higher calling” comment does seem to indicate she is not stepping away from politics, just from the governorship of Alaska.

#2 She’s though of an idea that is completely new. Something no-one has ever thought of before. Unconventional people do that sometimes don-cha-know.
#3 She’d rather be fishing.
