Dennis Egan has also always had it in for the progressive wing of the party, and no doubt saw this, in part, as a way of sticking it to them.

It may also have been something he promised Palin in exchange for getting appointed to Juneau's senate seat(he was chosen to replace Kim Elton, our previous senator, who'd been given an job in the Obama Administration). The Dem caucus wanted Palin to appoint Beth Kertulla(who is the current House minority leader and is also daughter of Jay Kertulla, the former senator from Wasilla, a man that Sarah P. had always hated) but Caribou Barbie refused to choose her.
