(AP) ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Sarah Palin says she’s not a quitter, she’s a fighter, but adds that, politically speaking, “if I die, I die. So be it.”

The Alaska governor spoke in taped interviews on ABC, NBC and CNN on Tuesday morning.

She tells CNN that “all options are on the table” for her future.

But she tells ABC’s “Good Morning America” that she recognizes she might not have political staying power, saying “politically speaking, if I die, I die.”

Speaking in fishing waders from the town of Dillingham, she says her resignation on Friday was a matter of progressing in an unconventional way because that’s how Alaskans are.

Palin says she doesn’t think she needs a title to affect “positive change,” but also says she can’t see herself being totally out of public service.
