Palin: Ready to work with Obama, ready to help media

Sarah Palin is the poster child for Mark Twain's comment, "All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure."

Let's face it. She's got ignorance and confidence in spades. Let us pray that Twain was wrong.

Please Sarah Palin - quit doing interviews and pick up a book and at least try to educate your self. You are making a joke out of your life.

Anyone who thinks for a second that this woman is "dumb", or that she wasn't "up for the job", don't kid yourself. Don't let partisanship blind you -- Sarah Palin is plenty sharp, and she's a doer. As for being "not the brightest or best this country has to offer", well, who is? Was Truman apparently the best or brightest? How about LBJ? He was a total hick, who used to call reporters into the bathroom while he was on the toilet. On the one hand, he got us involved in Vietnam for the most cynical, politically-motivated reasons, yet, while in the Senate, LBJ managed to push through the most important civil rights legislation of the 20th century -- so how do we score him?

Wow. I guess for me the question is do I want some I identify with to be a my leader, or do I want someone I identify as a good leader to lead. Palin is just like Ventura. Mavricks who don't do the leg work and resarch on a topic to form an opinon for themselves, but can repeat the headlines, of the pundents that support them. She amazed me when she asked if Obama wanted to win in Iraq. Win what? 7 years of fighting, and death on both sides, what does winning look like. Like most people who read about war history know, that when you drive a regime change by force within a country, the win is not created by the troops but by politcians in goverment that support you and are supported by the people. Please stay in Alaska, and if really want to help the lower 48, become informed.

I can't believe she is STILL trying that Bill Ayers thing. She should really give it a rest until she tries to run against him in 2012 and loses again because that's all she's got.

The only reason she's still getting airtime is because people are so entertained by her.

Why would anyone want to run for office in this country? This is the type of treatment we give them every time they do. All of the people in this campaign are very bright and dedicated people. They have to be to put up with treatment like this. Because you do not agree with how she says something or what her stand is on a particular issue does not make here stupid.

The Republican party is using her as a scapegoat plain and simple. They were not gong to win this election no matter what. Why? Thank you Mr Bush and the last horrible 8 years. Good luck to Mrs. Palin and I hope we see more of you in the future.

She has given me hope again. Being a feminist myself, she personifies the TRUE feminist agenda. She is smart, concise, and has it all. Everyone is upset because she does go against the grain and upsets the political waters of Washington. She DOES get it . She knows who is controlling the politics and unfortunately the press. She has the courage to tke it all on, and that makes people afraid...... Ver afraid. Thanks Sarah for your fortitude and courage....... You make me proud to be a feminist and a woman.

People, the election is over...get over your hate!!! "Nano" and "KL" sound like haters. Nano, if you did your homework, aside from reading liberal media newstories, you would have found out her husband left the successionist group back in the early 90s, hence is he NOT associated with them any longer. Or was your comment just a demonstration of your own lack of grasp of present tense vs. past tense use of English? So what if she spoke at one of their meetings? Why don't you make an issue with Obama and his associatiom with a domestic terrorist/Reverend Wright/Farrakan/Acorn/Khalidi? KL, did it ever occur to you that Palin's request to "work together" was a bridge to bi-partisanship cooperation, one espoused by BOTH parties during the entire campaign season? Hence, her request is not absurd. It's called setting your differences aside for the better good of the country. It's called leadership, and recognizing that now is the time to come together and unite as a country!

Obama won't make commitments so he doesn't have to admit mistakes. She's got more to show for her time in office than Barack has to show for his. Palin gets stuff done. Kinda like those gals in SNL said. Men just stroke each other's egos. Time for the "good ol' boys" club to make room for some girls. We need somebody who can get stuff done. The guys have had plenty of time to screw this country up and they did it royally.

"Lynette Clark, the chairman of the AIP, told ABC News that Palin and her husband Todd were members of the Alaskan Indepence Party in 1994, even attending the 1994 statewide convention in Wasilla. Clark was AIP secretary at the time. This, it should be noted, does not square with official records.

When asked if Palin ever identified herself as a member of the AIP, Rogers said, "No, she's a lifelong Republican." A day after ABC News requested a response from Palin as to whether she was ever a member of the AIP, McCain campaign spokesperson Brian Rogers told ABC News that Clark's "allegations are false." Clark rescinded her assertion that Gov. Palin had been a member of the AIP." abcnews.com

So there are still people out there who believe anything they hear without actually doing any research or educating themselves. Heaven forbid she "had the nerve" to talk about the un-patriotic, un-American, ignorant, mean-spirited Bill Ayers and his association with Obama. I also am amused by individuals who call her dumb, when they themselves can barely type or construct a simple sentence.

Sarah Palin can best serve the next administration by continuing to watch the skies of Alaska for any signs of Putin rearing his head in Alaskan air space. Someone has to keep up this important work in Alaska, I'm sure Palin would agree, and she has the most experience for this duty.

Gov. Palin cannot be ignored because she represents the proudly ignorant, self-absorbed wing of the republican party which is quite substantial in size. Like many others, she never bothered to educated herself on social policy vs. socialism, small towns vs. metropolitan values, the fourth ammendment or McCain's own radical associations which are far more extensive...Gordon Liddy, a CONVICTED unrepentent terrorist, Rev. Hagee, a jew hater, Keating, a government defrauder or Phil Graham, the real architect of the mortgage melt-down.

She had the chutzpah to bait like-minded supporters with fear, inuendo and flirtation, while lying about her support for the bridge-to-no-where and her own redistribution of wealth from oil companies to Alaskan citizens who pay no taxes. She needs to become an object lesson in what politics could have degraded to in this country.

So hang on a minute, if she is now willing to work with Obama, then doesn't that mean she will be working with a guy who "palls" around with terrorists?

That also means that she herself will be guilty by association with Obama?

Yes Palin is dumb, anybody with half a brain cell, would have worked out that If Obama did become the President elect then her earlier comments about "palling around with terrorists" would automatically rule her out in any working relationship with Obama.

Good lord--can this woman, for once be sincere? In one breath she offers an olive branch (for her own political gain) but then ads quickly (out of the side of her mouth no doubt): "But I still think he's a terrorist.."
She spews hate about the opposing party because she's shamefully self-promoting at any cost and she's stupid enough not to understand the consequences (a spike in death threats as noted by the Secret Service). And she's arrogantly incurious -- and either completely oblivious to it or completely apathetic about it -- either because she selfishly doesn't care or because she's too stupid to understand why it matters.

So she is still "bothered" by "that" association with Bill Ayers yet quite willing to work with Obama??? How incredibly witless. Her desperate ambition is showing, along with her staggering presumptiousness. If there is a job at the White House preparing Moose Chili, then maybe Obama will give her a call.

WOW! I am still amazed at the fact that people choose to ignore this woman's lack of intellegence.. I mean geez-I don't expect her to have half the intellegence that Barack has, but you do have to have a brain and some understanding of what is going on in the world, in order to feel that you are capable to play a significant role in vice president. Mrs. Palin needs to hang it up and move on!. I am quite disturbed at the fact that she is a political figure and she still has yet to carry herself with some grace and dignity to say something positive about the new president elect. Mrs. Palin never once sent her condolences when his grandmother passed either. She is truley a disgrace..

Has Sarah Palin noticed that she just got a royal whupping by the voters? Who cares what she thinks?

When is Sarah going to start governing again? When is Sarah going to begin caring for her family again, instead of having them walk behind her or stand for window dressing? When is Sarah going away! Enough already! The rest of the world's newspapers are enjoying the joke, but enough already!

I will like to make some comments on Sarah Palin:
This woman knows nothing about good parenting.How could she offer any advice to Michelle Obama when her daughter got pregnant at the age of 17 when she should be prepaing for college?
What expertise has she on energy? How has this knowledge help energy development in Alaska? Obama does not need her on any energy commission board. Palin is not even fit to govern a third world country let alone the United States of America. She should be satisfied ruling Alaska foe now.

Does anyone know of good filtering software I can buy so that I don't have to read anything else about her? I'm willing to pay a lot for it! She suffers from some serious delusions of grandeur. She isn't going to be a serious candidate for President in 2012 or any other year.

This woman is politics' answer to Lindsay Lohan - fame, and nothing behind it. Both Sarah and Lindsay are actresses. Palin is on a massive ego trip, abandoned by her own party, except for that crucial ability to generate interest during a campaign. It's now like watching an endless loop of a traffic accident; where fortunately no one else was hurt. Obama has been smart to give her zero attention; and we should all do likewise.

Palin is an unrepetant fear mongerer. That's about all a snivelling intellectually incurious person is capable of.

OH. MY. GOD. She's STILL pushing the Bill Ayers thing?! Doesn't she realize that was just a campaign tactic and actually a lot of good respectable people from both sids of the aisle associate with Ayers?! Does she really not get that? Oh my.

I hope President Obama just ignores her. I wouldn't want him palling around with idiots...

Why are we still wasting ink on this woman? Thinking Republicans already realize that hitching their wagon to Sarah Palin and her divisive culture politics would be a disaster. She'll never appeal to more than a small minority of voters. She has no future in national politics. And we can all be thankful for that.

She talks like Yoda.

She has no regrets about her racist, xenophobic fear-mongering? About all her blatant LIES? The woman has NO morals, NO humility, and NO sanity. She exhibits all the symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder... which is an affliction that usually strikes people in early adulthood. From her history, that sounds about right. After the way she treated him, I doubt Obama wants ANYTHING to do with this shrew. He is smart enough to see she is as clueless as a piece of wood.

Only human? Okay, she is a dumb human.

For God's sake! Please, Sarah pick up a book and least educate yourself, stop making a joke out of your life. Better learn foreigns and domestic policies. You are not qualified or has absolutely nothing to offer!

Keep yourself in Alaska, please as far away from Obama.

Thanks,
Ginette

Sarah Palin is, by far, the dumbest person ever to be on a presidential ticket. She is the biggest idiot ever.

Sarah Palin is an embarrassment; if the Repubs try to put her back in the limelight, they will--once again--become the laughing stock of the world.

Obama does NOT need the help of a woman who lied every time she opened her mouth about him. There are far more qualified people to reform the Republican Party without the ignorant and biased Palin..she will just bring more of the same garbage that lost the election for McCain. The people have made it clear that it was the negativity of the McPalin ticket, and not the economy that lost them the election. Even McCain is taking on some blame, but I haven't heard a single word from Palin as to any responsibility for the loss. She blames EVERYONE BUT

HERSELF>

While Sarah was a breath of fresh air I do agree that she was not up for the task of VP. Can she be a player in the future? You betcha!!

She is trying hard to stay in the Game...will do anything ...I mean anything...

Don't you guys know...what she did with people who helped her...Stepped on their heads...

"If the Obama campaign ignores Palin's offers it will be their loss. Looking at the media coverage right now, she's getting more than Obama. Barack, be afraid (of 2012) be very afraid."

By this same sentiment he should be more afraid of Mylie Cyrus and Britney Spears.

Sarah is a very dangerous person. She will not let the Ayers story go - it is crazy that she cannot see the difference. As far as- she could not be dumb because she was elected in Alaska....is this the same state that has elected a convicted felon? I think the Alaska citizens should be forced to take a logic and government class. Many of the people of the US are attracted to her - for all the wrong reasons. I think Obama will not include her - do we really need someone like her? I do not think we do.

She is so full of herself! Yuck! As a United States Senator, John McCain is far more relevant than she is, but he has had the humility and sense of tradition to keep a low profile in the election aftermath. Palin should follow his lead.

Oh my God! You mean to tell me Obama's middle name is "Hussein"?! Where was the media on this?! If someone had just told me, I would have never voted for him! All joking aside, I never get tired of reading the hysterical posts from these moronic jackasses who point out Obama's middle name like it's some kind of trump card. Wow, the stupidity of these people is amazing.

It's presumptuous of Palin to offer to help and to work with Obama. It presumes Obama wants her help, and he doesn't. I'm sure she'd be willing to serve as VP if Obama changed his mind about Biden and replaced Biden with Palin. That's the level of unreality that she's functioning at. And as for 2012, Palin running then would be the best thing that ever happened to the Dems since she scares everyone except far right wingers. I guess her novelty factor explains why the media giving her air time--all the interviewers are hoping they'll be the one to snag a huge gaff from her. She's yesterday's news.

God when those sore losers will learn? It is not Obama campaign anymore, IS OBAMA PRESIDENCY! And you fascists got only 40 seats in the Senate, so it is FILIBUSTER PROOF PRESIDENCY! Obama will reshape America his own way, because he got the majorities in Congress to do so! During his first term, 4 (FOUR, I said FOUR) supreme court justices will be replaced, so with the 3 left wing liberals that are already there, that means 7 left wing Supreme Court Justices! 7 of 9...
I haven't voted for Obama, but that is the truth. The guy and his left wing part of the Democratic Party won the biggest majority in the US, in years! So HE RULES NOW!

Sarah Palin is the poster child for Mark Twain's saying, "All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence; then success is sure."

It's amazing how incredibly ignorant Ms. Palin is. Equally amazing is how confident she appears to be.

Let us pray that Twain was wrong.

Say what? She doesn't even make ANY sense!?!?!?

A disgraceful, inarticulate, power hungry, self serving idiot who is too stupid and ignorant to be embarrassed by her own words and actions. Gee, sounds kind of like George W Bush!

I am grateful every day for the intelligence, strength, vision, and determination of Barack Obama to bring about change in this country, and couldn't be more proud of our country for taking the first step in that direction. Barack Obama gave us a voice and encouraged us to walk tall through these troubles times...together, we will build a more peaceful, more prosperous, more tolerant world.

Gee, I think Sarah is aiming to low. Here's a possible plan for her:
Go back to Alaska.
Rejoin the Amer. Independence Party and secede from the U.S.
Offer land grants to all of the "real Americans" that are members of the KKK, Joel's Army, The Third Wave, and all of the other Christofacists and Dominionists.
Appoint yourself the Empress.

The women that support her, purely because she is a soccer mom blows my mind. You ladies use, what she says to defend herself. You say well shes the GOV of a state. ALASKA people. This is the first year in decades that Alaska has gotten some attention. I mean come on the population of the entire state is still smaller than our ten major cities in the country. She has zero experience with anything. And I was voting for McCain. Come on now

Nice of her to offer but what exactly does she have to offer? Thanks but no thanks!

Palin reminds us that there is a big difference between dumb and ignorant. There is no doubt that she is ignorant of the world beyond Alaska -- and perhaps about Alaska itself, given that she left the city of which she was mayor with a huge deficit and she seems to be blind that she rules over a locality with a shocking rate of violence against women. But the woman has demonstrated that she is no means stupid: she's shrewd and calculating -- and if she had half a brain, we'd really be in trouble!

Reading most of these posts simply depresses me. It's so easy to sit behind the safety of your computer and hurl insulting, vile, inhumane remarks about another individual. It appears that for many this medium provides some sick, perverse fulfillment from the opportunity to trash others with an audience. I believe that any individual willing to step forward and offer to take on such a thank-less job as public service deserves at least a grain of civility from the others they have offered to serve. I'm ashamed to be associated with the human race when I read some of the comments posted here. We enjoy, more than any other country in the world, the right to free speech but what I have just read as a new viewer of this website sickens me; I see a genuine abuse of this right so couragessly won and sustained by public servants throughout our history.
Would you actually say these things to the face of the individual about whom you are bashing here? And if you feel you are so much better educated, so much more well-versed in world politics and foreign affairs, please share with us all here, your attentive audience, what you have done lately to improve your family's life, your community, your country, your world.
Are you brave enough to get up from behind your keyboard and do something relevant, something that matters, something really worth writing about.

Those McCain/Palin people sure are bitter after being completely dominated in the national election.

I do believe that Sarah Palin a self serving egocentric, who has no clue how politics and ethics work. In other words, is she fu%$#@* nuts.

So--SP is going to help Obama run the country and help Couric learn how to be a journalist? Wasn't SP a sports reporter for a brief period of time? I am sure these qualified, intelligent, highly educated, competent people are going to run to her for advice and help. Her hubris is overwhelming.

bill ayers is my hero . . . the only violence he committed was against physical property for the cause of stopping a pointless war that killed thousands for no good reason other than dogmaticism . . . look at that in black and white and tell me who the real criminal is . . .

Unbelievable. Now that the election is over, she is trying to redeem herself from all the criticisms that came up over the course of the campaign. Sadly, she doesn't seem any wiser. She complained about the "elite media" and now she respects the mainstream media - but she is going to teach them a thing or two about objectivity. The election is over and the Bill Ayers chapter is over, but let's repeat my accusations one more time just in case you didn't hear it the first time. She's going to reach out to Obama and lend a hand - to a man she clearly didn't respect. She's repeating her campaign trail rhetoric. Someone remind her that the election is over -- and SHE and McCain LOST!

Until reading these comments, I didn't realize Sarah's husband attended meetings to discuss secession from the United States. You go, Todd! I'll gladly move to Alaska if we can do that. We'll make Sarah our president, we'll have plenty of oil and the most scenic country in the world. Sign me up.

Oh, stop it!!!!! My sides hurt!!!!! Help from Palin? That's hilarious!

She sank McCain (his fault, really) and now she's prepared to help Obama? Hmmm, let's see you want to talk about Obama's record and casual, long ago associations, but no one should associate my skills as a leader with my pregnant 17 year old at home.....that's irrelevant.

Dumb as a stump and arrogant to boot.

She's not as dumb as all of us Americans who voted for Obama who pals with Ayers and others. So cut her some slack and be fair.

She accused him of palling around with terrorists, now she wants to Pal around with him. Is it me or is this women dillusional?

If this woman runs for president or vp in 2012, I will be right there to vote against her.

Obama will probably face a tough challenge in 2012, but it won't be from Palin! The primaries are much more difficult than the general election. For the past two months, she was the only conservative in the spotlight besides McCain who was never really embraced by the party loyalists. To get the nomination, she'll have to defeat other energizing candidates that are more intelligent -- Huckabee, Jindal, and (gulp) even Romney. And those guys won't take it easy on her in the debates like Biden was forced to do. They'll destroy her.

So stick to governing Alaska, a state whose population is just slightly more than the city of Boston! All of the people who think governing AK is such an acheivement, don't foget that it's a low populated state that does nothing to protect its vast land and generates surpluses from oil! Any fool could do it.

This from a woman that didn't know Africa is a continent! Air has a higher IQ than Sarah!

Don't get nasty.. JUST DON'T VOTE FOR HER IN THE FUTURE. She is still agood looking lady.

I wish the press would just ignore her and let her fade away. She draws ratings the same way people taking about three headed mice do ;so they keep on interviewing her. Enough already, the woman is an embarassment.

Palin has proven in her campaign that she is willing to say anything to get elected. As far as I'm concerned, Palin has attempted to corrupt the democratic process, and that makes her un-American and unpatriotic.

Wow. This chick becomes more and more engulfed in herself with each passing day. She should get help. There really is a very serious problem there.

John McCain had several more qualified Republicans to select from. Why he chose Sarah Palin is beyond comprehension especially when there were many more qualified and intelligent Republican women he could have selected let alone men. If there is anyone to blame it is John McCain period. As for Sarah Palin's future, I don't believe she will be selected to run for President in 2012.

Someone tell Paulson to allocate some TARP funds and get Palin to shut up. We need to be rescued.

Apparently they don't teach geography in Alaska along with all other college prep courses. Hummm! Let's see and now she wants to pal around with Obama the Harvard Graduate and President of the USA. Wow! Talk about opportunist!

jstacey...you are an idiot...did you also vote for Bush 4 years ago? Look where that got us.

Obama, a self made man with a Harvard education, has nothing to be afraid of, especially from someone who can't name one newspaper let alone her own hometown newspaper when asked.

Palin will disappear, just like Fiorina, another self promoting ditz full of hot air that no one cares about.

Very funny. She doesn't seem to realize that she is nobody in Washington, with nothing to offer. People keep interviewing her because she is a freak show, but she doesn't get it. Caribou Barbie, get a clue--to the media, you are now a two-headed calf or the reincarnation of Anna Nicole Smith.

Let's cut her loose once and for all. Here's she's all over the 'filtering' and 'gotcha media' using them like old rag. The funnist thing, still lying, still spinning her tales. The only thing she's really accomplishing is proving that she is a whack job. And please let the GOP run to the right.

She is as smart as a rock. Putin is over there rearin' his head again. And where does he go? Alaska. Of course...and Pallin' around with terrorists...wink wink...but im ready to work with him? F-in dumb...doesnt that make her a person working with "terrorists". Oh Africa is a continent...omg...dumb...dumb...and dumber. No wonder why she wasnt vetted..lmao.

{So hang on a minute, if she is now willing to work with Obama, then doesn't that mean she will be working with a guy who "palls" around with terrorists?

That also means that she herself will be guilty by association with Obama?}

And also true of all of you that voted for Obama. You can bet she did not.

This is a very sad thing. Sarah Palin is the dumbest, illiterate person I have ever had the displeasure of listening to. I am absolutely blown away at how dumb this women is. How illiterate can a person be and continue to open their mouth and spew out illdumbliterate word. I'm sorry but this cause for a new word, people. Please Mrs. Palin take Katie Couric's advise and Keep your head down. What Katie is saying is (in a polite way) keep your mouth shut. It will do you well. We don't want to hear from you anymore. Please Go Away!!!!

People, people.... Sarah was asked a question about Ayers. (Reporters WANT to stir up controversy. It sells.) She gave her answer and then followed by expressing her sincere sentiment that the election was historic for our nation and that she looked forward to working with Obama. All of you who voted for Obama should relax. You got your guy. I didn't vote for him, but I sincerely hope that he is successful. Our country needs him to be.

sarah palin is so full of herself that she thought she was talkinng to the president of France ??/on the $%$%$%BLOODY))(*&&^^% eve of the election... give me a break ...you gotta be kidding me...right...even after the comedians left several clues like fake names and silly accents...she still couldnt figure it out..my 13 yr old niece could discern those fake accents... Mrs. Palin instead of trying to ban books...you need to pick up a book, and then read a book...by the way..i think she graduated from community college after attending six times or 6 years..something like that.,.not to disparriage community college though...she is willfully ignorant and dangerously unfit for office. to all those that like her,,please consider her policies and beliefs and not her personal or sexual appeal!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, she has already helped Obama immensely, but now that the election is over, she is just a comedy relief sidekick with no straight man. She certainly loves to be the center of attention, even if it's at her own expense and at this point, that's all it amounts to. Her political career is over. The media is just harvesting whatever audience attention left from her relentless jabbering in circles. Put a camera on her or stick a microphone in her face and she kicks into high gear. The beauty contest and election are both over and she came in second again. I feel sorry for her poor kids. Someone so strong against birth control, should attempt a better showing as a parent. It's obviously easy to have them, just rub Todd and viola, another one to follow her around and get knocked up in High School. The nuts never fall far from the tree. Thank God, the tree is back in Alaska where it belongs. I've got a feeling the voters up there may be thinking about some pruning. You betcha, wink, wink!

Palin is a hangover. Conservatives are right on a lot of issues and I understand why they might not enjoy Obama. But dear lord people, she was a stunt. She was a reality TV plot driver. She was a strategy move. She was a firework. It got everyone's attention. It worked. But she is nothing more than that. She is not the next leader of the free world. Find a conservative with more understanding, more intellect. More. Put them up and support them. Look for a great man or woman and those of us who supported Obama will take an honest look at them. No more weak minds in the White house!

"There you go again." - Ronald Reagan to Jimmy Carter, 1980.
"There you go again." - Ronald Reagan to Walter Mondale, 1984.
"There you go again, Joe." - Sarah Palin to Joe Biden, 2008.

Pathetic.

how can anyone (nano) compare palin's husband sitting around with a bunch of yahoo's talking about succession and wiliam ayers and his hag of a wife actually planting and exploding bombs (that luckily did not kill anyone) ?
anyone who does is a fool and ayers and his hag of a wife should have been hanged.

it is going to be interesting to see if a dissenters opinion is allowed on this site.

I am a rural Alaskan. There are plenty of bright Alaskans, including our republican Senator Lisa Murkowski. Governor Palin just doesn't compare. When Palin won the republican primary during the previous election, she was running against perhaps the most unpopular republican 1-term governor we had ever had. Without a viable 3rd party candidate to split the right-wing vote the democratic contender have no hope. Palin loves the cameras and will persist in seeking the limelight. She desperately wanted to win, and it shows. Ethics and honor are not her strengths.

All I can say is, "NO!" I think she should just get her kids caught up on school. I think she should take her 7 year old's high heels off and get involved in the new baby's life that's on the way through her other daughter, Bristol.
She is not on board with Obama, as she keeps mentioning Ayers. Ayers is an entirely different man than Obama. She needs to go talk with him. Obama pals around with Michelle, Sasha, and Malia. Period. I need Palin to tell me more about her secessionist pals, the AIP. I need her to tell me about her palling around in bed with her hubby's best friend while married to Todd. Stay away from Obama.

Hey, chill out you folks a little bit here. Sarah Palin is just an actress playing politics show-biz, just like G. W. Bush, Tony Blair and other clowns/clones are/were. She just 'articulates' lines that were written and given to her by some 'unindentified individuals' (or gangs). She is not supposed to understand/subscribe to/take responsibility for her character lines. Real politics is (and always has been) getting done behind the curtains.

Jack of all...I've been thinking the same thing. Obama "palled around" with Ayers for the same reason Palin wants to "pal around" with Obama. To further their political careers, and (giving her the benefit of the doubt) do some good for the people. I hope she keeps up the hypocrisy, so she stands no chance in 2012. This is the same person who thinks "spreading the wealth" is an evil thing, yet "sharing the wealth" is a decent thing. I don't see much difference. Someone who calls people like herself who live in small towns more American than the rest of us, yet sees this country as "so imperfect" as to want to secede from the Union.

Time will show that Rep. Michele Bachman, Rep. Paul Broun, Florida TV reporter Barbara West and Gov. Palin were all right to bring up Sen. Obama's blatant Marxism. They all should be commended for it rather than attacked for not being 100% positive about Obama. It's his actual record and all they did is point out the truth, however that angers some. But people who deny it simply haven't researched it for themselves. Obama would have gotten nowhere 20 years ago, but now our country has forgotten what communism is like. Obama and the liberal estabishment media have been spinning the cold hard facts of his past, such as the comments he made on "major redistributive change" on a radio show in 2001. No one could honestly say that he opposed such change in those remarks, since what he actually said was that he wasn't optimistic about bringing about such "change" through the courts, and thought legislation was the way to go, but his defenders somehow did manage to twist that into he was actually against such "change." I hope people will look at the transcripts and judge for themselves.

Obama also ran for State Senate as a democratic socialist sponsored New Party candidate, as internet records show (see Politically Drunk on Power blog), and had a pro-communist band, the Decemberists, open and close for him this year at a rally (they're named after a lower-class uprising, and they perform the Soviet anthem in Russian). That's a horrible example for our young people, who don't know anything about communism, and who are completely divorced from the reality that there are still people on this planet who live oppressed under one-party dictatorships without any of the freedoms that seem so natural we take them for granted and would be crushed by the "culture shock" if we suddenly had to live in a police state ourselves. If we suffer only the tiniest fraction of what these people do, we think things are really bad. My own father snuck out of one such "paradise," East Germany. We need to remind ourselves why so many East Germans and other citizens of communist countries risked their lives to get out of them. Check out "Crisis in the Koreas” for a sense of what communism means.

Can't we just put up some kind of Palin Spam filter and spare the world ever hearing her name again?

pleasr sarah,go away and leave us alone!

No way should Palin or any other Republican be groomed as a candidate for the next election. Way way too much time to give to the biased media to rip the person to pieces.

Making too much of a scapegoat out of her can create a backlask, some would stand up for her and she'll end up with bunch of supporters for the 2012 campaign! Just watch!

Praise Jesus for Gov. Sarah Palin. She is the The (Real) One who is blessed by our creator also to save our nation in a time of energy crisis using her expertise there. She is blessed with an angel's tongue and Moses' wisdom by calling out domestic terrorists when she sees them. And she married one also.

Sarah the big-hearted?
She's willing to help Obama and the media. How touching.
The only thing big about her is her head.

Katie Couric has given Palin some advice: "Keep your head down, work really hard, and learn about governing before contemplating a presidential run."

Best comments yet. She is not intelligently informed about any issues to be governor, let alone vice president of the US of A. Sure we've had other idiots in office: The question is, when we have a chance NOT to have an idiot running the white house, why would we choose the idiot?

Thank God for Barack Obama. GOP's got nothing, and they keep serving up piles of nonsense in every election.

If I were Obama, I would tell self-rightous Sarah, "thanks, but no thanks." Something just doesnt sit right with me about her. The more I hear and read about her and the post-mordem interviews she does, the more I see that she is just really a talking billboard of self-promotion. As time goes by and we all learn more about her, I think her shelf life as a person of interest will quickly expire.

I really wish Palin would go back to the rock that she crawled out from under. She is a national embarrassment. She is hateful, totally without credibility. She tells a lie until is stops working and then switches to another lie. It is clear that in her world truth has no place. Please, stop writing about her. If the idiots in Alaska want her as governor, then they deserve her. The rest of us are much better off without her.

"Sarah Palin is not dumb. She got elected the governor of Alaska for god's sake."

Of course, and her solutions to the energy crisis with drilling simply exemplified her wisdom. Exploiting Alaska's national resources and winning votes through payoffs from oil companies does not just make her stupid, it makes the entire state of Alaska the same way.

Palin is the gift that keeps on giving to the Democratic Party. The more she opens her mouth, the more God slams that door she wants to "plow through." Gosh, darn it, let's keep her talkin'!

The below comment is so hilarious. I coudn't stop laughing for nearly 3 minutes. I think you should send it to more newspapers so that more people may read it :).......maybe make a cartoon and publish it.

Someone tell Paulson to allocate some TARP funds and get Palin to shut up. We need to be rescued.

Oi. She really does make my head hurt. Out of the one side of her mouth, she's willing to talk about Ayers. Out of the other, she says that that is a closed chapter.

It's not that I like Obama so much. He's a very inspirational speaker, but he's also a little too shrewd and – gasp – inexperienced for my liking. It's that Palin's approach to everything is simply grating and ingratiating. Add to that her general inexperience – double gasp! – and cluelessness – faint – and we really have a very dangerous person.

To be clear, I am an old McCain supporter who voted against him because of his recent transformation into a cynical partisan willing to put party before country, exemplified by Palin’s selection as his running mate.

And I get it. To have any feelings other than sheer adoration for the Alaskan governor is to commit heresy and ascribe to all things liberal. That is fine. We in the Center have been dealing with folks like you for years. You are no different than the Lunatic Left that looks to Obama as the messiah (a title given to him by the Right), and you are becoming increasingly easy to defeat, both in logic and in vote.

To those who are worried about Obama cutting defense spending, McCain plainly stated early in his campaign that he would do the same thing. Perhaps the president-elect can get a few pointers from the Arizona senator on this issue. (Remember: he was running for POTUS, not Palin.) It is one of the reasons that I wanted to vote for McCain; he really seemed to have a thorough understanding of what can and should be cut and how to get out of senseless no-bid contracts.

Run, Palin, run! Run all the way to 2012! Maybe by then we will actually have a strong “third” party.

Uck! GET RID OF THIS WOMAN, WILL YOU!!!!!! She is SUCH an embarrassment -- I've never in my 53 years of living seen quite anything like it!!! Seriously! If I have to hear from this woman again, I'm going to throw up! Alaska ....... take her back! Puleeze!!!

CHILDISH SUBJECT.Who's that female anchor for the NBC Today show that got fire from her job,Katie Couric?.

The combined attack on Sarah Palin from the democrats, republicans and other low life seems to be a coordinated effort to eliminate her from any political consideration in the imediate future.It appears to me that she is an honest,inteligent and straight thinking politician- a rare combination in todays snake infested political environment.

Oh, yes, Obama needs Sarah so much, he should hire her right away! Who would be talking to Sarkozy on his behalf if not Sarah? Who would help Michelle with her shopping? Poor woman gets by with J. Crew outfits, Sarah will teach her to dress like first lady! And, by the way, would Obama know how to drill, baby, drill? Without Sarah?????? No Sarah, no energy policy!
