Actually, I always thought that Letterman was a Stevie fan. He has said as much. He has her on his show often, and he always makes a big deal over her. Many times Letterman makes jokes about people he admires and likes, for example--Martha Stewart. Letterman is a comic. That is what he does. Therefore, I don't see how you could gadge popularity or downfall by him. You could look at it this way, if it was someone no one cared about, or wasn't still successful/popular, he wouldn't be talking about them at all! That shows me that she still has what it takes.
