She won't be going away anytime soon and I believe she will continue to move up in the party.
Remember that it's her wedge standing and cult of personality that makes her so attractive to the GOP. Assuming they do lose (I'm still sleeping with one eye open) she will become the party's most public and reliable critic of the Obama administration. As Docbungle said, she'll be a top draw as a pundit on talk shows and 24hour news channels, dogging the new government every step of the way.
How well she succeeds in this new role over the next few years will determine her future electability. That's no given, but she'll definitely be a populist presence for the forseeable future.
