Can a good keyword make up for a poor extension?

[Hopper]

Do you think that a good keyword can make up for a poor ccTLD extension?

Or do you think that the extension is the key factor in determining the value of a domain?

What I mean by this is, cana a good keyword hold a good value even when the ccTLD is not that popular. Obviously .com's the daddy, followed by .net & other major extensions but are KEYWORD ccTLD's worth the extra reg fees?

Ironically, I just looked at that comparison
with 2 of my .cc and a .ca domain

OVT 133173 (credit related - 2 words)
.cc = $30.00
.com = $160,000.00
.ca = $360.00

OVT 28368 (popular First name)
.cc = $540.00
.com = $470,000.00
.ca = $6,000.00

OVT 6557 (LLL 1 bad letter)
.ca = $1,100.00
.com = $22,000.00
.cc = $40.00

But since I'll never own the .coms,
I took the ccTLD, just to have them

But seeing these stats, I see the choice
of the ccTLD makes alot of the difference,
I think the keywords can hold their own, but
development is the key! (2 of these are developed)

Hope this helps
