One of Sarah Palin's most significant energy policies is in danger of being reversed -- and by Republicans, no less.

Alaska Gov. Sean Parnell (R) is supporting Republican efforts to lower taxes on oil companies. Palin had raised them in what the New York Times called a "major oil tax increase".

Republicans in the Legislature say her tax increase is driving jobs away, and as you might expect, it's Democrats who are rallying to keep the higher taxes in place.

Of course, it's ironic that one of Palin's signature legacies in the state is a tax increase -- something she understandably doesn't talk much about these days.
