CNN

DOES PALIN REFUSING TO COOPERATE WITH INVESTOGATORS MATTER?

IT MATTERS!!!! With a VP candidacy she’ll be a heartbeat away from the Presidency!!!!!!!!!!!!!

IT MATTERS!!! She’s not a Hollywood celebrity she’s vying for the seconf most important office IN THIS COUNTRY!!! YES IT MATTERS!!!

IF SHE HAS NOTHING TO HIDE THEN PROVE IT!!!!!

She should have known that, just like she should have know the "Bush doctrine"...I guess she's been skipping her homework!

People need to cover this on prime time casue many do not know this and fall for the garbage that Obama did nothing in his over 12 year career in public office.
Once I researched the records and listened to the lies being spread by republicans the chioce was clear. I refuse to be fooled into another disasterousr 4 years. ENOUGH!

OBAMA/ BIDEN will be my candidate this fall

How can a United States Governor not know about the existence of a Federal Government transparency website. If you add this to her ignorance of the Bush Doctrine then my conclusion is that McCain has short-changed the American people were he to get elected.
FYI – Both issues fall under economy and security.

"I CAN SEE RUSSIA FROM MY HOUSE"

HOW PATHETICALLY DESPERATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You would think that McCain.. being a co-sponser of the transparency bill, would've remembered to tell Palin that this law already exists.

Whether it's an attempt to lie to the people, or just old age where he forgot it exists... it's scary either way.

That was on her list of things to Google....along with the Bush doctrine.....

How about it Gov Palin. Anymore bright ideas. Next time try to come with a new idea of your own. This one is taken.

CBH

The simple fact that these two clearly aren't taking these election seriously, during a period in our history when chaos rules, proves beyond a reasonable doubt in rational minds they aren't up to the task.

Palin – PainLin is super woman ... she will change the white house around, balance the budget, get our repect back around the world and provide a wonderful cookie recipe ..... please she will say and do anything to get into the white house ... Palin first not country....

no way, no how, no McSame as Bush & PainLin

Keep talking Sara...you are single-handedly sinking your own ship.

Another "oops" for "Senator Deregulator and Governor "I can see Russia".

She should just continue doing that standup comedy act that she did at the RNC. She was selected to give snappy insults and be the face of a new McCain and she should stick to it. It seems like everytime she tries to state a fact its either kinda not true, really not true, or just wrong!

lololololololololololol this is the gift that keeps on giving. thanks ms palin your utter ignorance is a blessing for the democratic party base, and like minded independents. thanks you.

oh and by the way ms. rothschild, and mr. trump thank you, that elitist air you bring gives us more money in fundraising. thank you for endorsing john mcfish.

Next Mcain Palin Ad

We will do whatever Obama would have done if he were to be elected President, Only we will Lie alot more and make big Oil richer!

I knew it was just a matter of time, that is why Obama has not had to say a whole lot about Palin, she will destory herself and bring McCain down with her or him or whatever.

mccain/palin not only lie but they steal to.

Another example of how McCain makes poor leadership choices. Good man, but proving he's not right to lead.

The additional irony: Palin's "private" e-mail has just been hacked, exposing how non-transparent her administration really is.

Timing is an interesting thing, and the GOP ticket is 0-for-2 on that so far this week..

She is the most popular town idiot

I read this comment on another blog and it applies perfectly to this situation:

"To those who view Sarah Palin as a breath of fresh air: That breeze you feel is the handbasket accelerating."
-Greg L., Austin

Voters: So what would ya say, ya do here??

Palin: I already told you, I deal with the public so McCain doesn’t have to, I have people skills, I am good at dealing with people, can’t you understand that, WHAT THE HECK IS THE MATTER WITH YOU PEOPLE?!

Palin is awful I dont trust her she lied about the bridge to nowhere the same ole lying politician.....We do not need Palin in the white house

Moose girl is not that bright. Forgive her and then take her back to Alaska.

Palin in PLAIN has not done her homework.

OMG!!! THIS WOMAN HAS GOT TO GO!!!! She is not even a politican, she has no leadership qualities! Obama went right into the firing squad on O' Riley's show! Now have Palin go on the View!!!! iF SHE HAS GOT THE GUTS AND CAN STAND UP FOR WHAT SHE BELIEVES LET HER FACE THE VIEW

Veterans for Obama

Another way to look at it.... just another thing that Palin and Obama have in common. quit griping about this woman. They both share the same basic values.... "make yourself usefull to the common man", they both are Christian (he, Obama, has actually been very astute and specific about what he believes about... oh no... here comes that name... JESUS), and they both have compasion for those around them. What it is that ticks people off about Palin is just over my head I suppose. All this griping about her getting a scum bucket cop off the streets.... shut the heck up. Obama is a good man. Palin is a good woman, both are good citizens of this country, so focus on what policies they are touting, not all this bs about stuff that comes out with all presidients. Have we all forgotten "I did not have relations with THAT woman".... oh ya, let's trust the democrat. Jimmy Carter was and is a great man, he was the only President that I actuall think lives what he preaches, and yet, what a disaster he left on the economy. Good grief people, lighten up. Just go out and vote, and trust in the system we have.... checks and balances.

Will, do you even know what co-sponsoring is? It is basically "seconding" the bill. It's just jumping on the bandwagon– a bill could end up with like 100 co-sponsors if it's insanely popular and a no-brainer. Obama and Lugar actually WROTE that bill, which means that they did all of the hard work.

So yeah, if you want to give McCain credit for being co-sponsor– you're giving him credit for being a follower, not a leader.

It truly amazes me how she constantly tries to take credit for things that she is not even doing. She said she cancelled the Bridge to Nowhere telling congress thanks, but no thanks. She supported it, then congress said thanks, but no thanks to Alaska, then Palin said it after it was already killed. Then, she KEPT THE MONEY!!!! She kept the money!!! She says that she gave the surplus she created in the Alaska budget back to the people. Could the money from the surplus have come from the money from the bridge to nowhere? HMMMMM. I really think that Biden needs to just call her and out and out LIAR at the debates if she sprouts this nonsense. Pathetic. I'm all for a woman in office, but not THIS unqualified woman.

Oh – doesn't this just get better and better?? I mean REALLY....she's become my daily dose of hilarity...and while those right-wing nuts may argue she's simply outstanding, way too many moderate and Independent voters are going to see right through her BS....talk about Transparency!!

god bless you Sarah Palin....you'll hand this election to us on a silver platter....

Obama-Biden

Hold on one sec...
Obama actually sponsored a major bill in the house and in a bi-partisan way?
So he did accomplish something afterall.
Not long ago it was all over the news after Sarah's acceptance speech. You would think she'll remember. This keeps on getting better and better.

umm Bible Barbie. Are the time zone differences to Alaska in hours or years? Can't wait til your fifteen minutes are up.

Man this woman is really a joke. It won't be long before all the repugs will begin to jump ship on M/P. All this woman have to do is open her mouth and Obama will gain thousands of votes or folks will just stay home. Hannidy and Rush littlbaugh wiill continue to make fools of themselves as long as the continue to propogandize the air waves with supporting this women. There credibility will diminish as long as this woman continues to open her mouth. No wonder they do not want her to take questions form the media.

Go back to Alaska! She has NO business running our great and diverse nation!

Stupid, Stupid, Stupid

LOL! Oooopppsss!!!!

This is priceless!

I agree an earlier post, they are playing follow the leader!!

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA

YES WE CAN!!!!

What's next? Should we do away with the King and elect a president?

Oops we already did that too...

Hey, I can see Russia from my house! Isn't that neato!

Anyone who says they have been a democrat all their lives but will not vote for Obama is either a racist, a woman-only voter, or both. His policies are the same as Hillary's and almost every other democrat.

Regarding McCain, he says he will only meet with leaders who share America's ideals, that he would fire the SEC chairman today (jumping the gun just a bit), and that the economy is sound. His sidekick avoids investigations and says she will bring transparency to Washington THAT IS ALREADY THERE.

Man, don't Americans want a leader who is willing to work with other countries instead of punishing them for not standing beside an illegal war? If you think electing McCain and Palin will improve your standing in the world or keep you safe, I think you will be in for a shock. Threatening wars and poking other countries in the eye is not what a President should do......

It would be humorous if it wasn't so repetitive and blatant besides just totally dishonest. With a smile she continually does this stuff: lies, misrepresentations, exaggerations and just plain old BS. We have already had eight years with that kind of representation in the White House and we sure don't need more of it!

Difference between a Pitbull and Sarah Palin: Pitbull can be trained.

I am voting for McCain/Palin, and I have been a life long Democrat. I vote for character. McCain has it. Obama does not.

Way to go, Sarah- open mouth, stick foot in- Palin!

I know everyone wants Obama to FIGHT, but he is a uniter not a fighter. Give them enough rope and they will hange themselves.

This would be funny it the stakes in this election weren't so high.

Wake up America!

Could that woman be any more of a useless TOOL??

Them thar "mavericks" been rustlin' more ideas.

hahahaha....o my god....make the insanity end.

CNN that's what I'm talking about! this is the CNN I like to see! You've got to keep bringing us the truth, that's the only way you can help us in these elections! Now Wolf Blitzer needs to bring this up on the situation room at 6pm!

Harriet Miers McPalin made an ooopsie. Arm-piece VP with her finger on the button is the GOP dream, and my nightmare.

And I can see Russia from my house, that is about the only thing that she knows about foreign policies,

01/20/2009 Happy days are here again.....

Hey Palin, maybe you could start transparency by providing transparency in your own state first. Don't just talk.

This is Bush in a woman's costume. I swear!!

I am proposing to invent the wheel, but it has already been invented?? This woman makes no sense!!

That is why the Republicans have been keeping her from speaking out in public!!! She needs to stay in Alaska and "moose" out!!!

The only thing I regret about this coming out is that it wasn't left for her to trumpet during the VP debate... just in time for Biden to say "actually Governor, we did that already... it's called the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act. Perhaps you've heard of it?" The stunned look on her face would've been priceless.

This woman just says anything that pops into her head. She doesn't know much about the U.S. Government. She is much too dangerous to be our VP.

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE PALIN ANNIHILATED IN THE DEBATE.

MAYBE SHE WILL BRING A SLIDE PROJECTOR SO THAT SHE CAN SHOW US HUNTING, FISHING, HOCKEY FAMILY PHOTOS AND MAYBE EVEN SLIDES OF RUSSIA TAKEN FROM EHR BACK PORCH!

SHE IS A ONE-WOMAN FREAK SHOW!

Now that's a Brittney Spears moment if I have ever seen one.

Opps, I did it again!!

Obama 08&12

Somebody needs to make a superhero cartoon out of these two...something like "Senior Moment and his sidekick The Incredible Babbling Woman"....and their superpowers can include fabricating overwhelming nonsense sufficient to confuse millions of people at once. They fly around in her Jet of Seclusion in search of rational people to zap with their hypocrisy ray, which sucks out all hope for the future and replaces it with fear and a subconscious country music soundtrack that forces the victim to complacently agree with everything they say without questioning.

Sarah Palin's interview with Sean "Fingers" Hannity made me thing that she was deaf, dumb and blind and he was a seeing eye dog!

And every time she said, "reform, abuse, maverick", Sean would bark.

Will...if you are right and McCain is responsible for that act as well....then that just makes Palin look worse. She doesn't even know what McCain has accomplished. Don't surprise me one bit.

I'm with the lady who says we need to put Sarah on e-bay. Don't think she'd sell though..probably couldn't give that gal away.

Did I actually read some of you say Obama was the sane choice? I went to the website created by Obama. Couldn't find anything about his spending of governemnet funds. Do you think Palin was saying she would open up the ENTIRE government's spending?? All of the above posts show people will believe whatever they read and do no research on thier own. Maybe Graham was right about a majority (of democrats) Americans being stupid.

This is really scary... And to think that she is VP and doesn't know what she is talking about.... OMG!!! Please America WAKE UP!!

Obama/Biden is the right ticket!!!!!

It is Xerox Change she intends to bring. She´s not a leader but a follower.

As punishment, she'll have to meet with the "president" of Spain in an undisclosed location.

Too bad she can't be so honest and transparent in cooperating with the Troopergate bi-partisan investigation (that even her own party agreed to)

Ohhhh boy, this is the best one yet.

BIPARTISANSHIP! LEADERSHIP!

Want to know why you're so scary, Sarah? Google "Uncanny Valley."

I can see Yankee stadium from my house, does that make me homerun champion.

But, she can still see Russia....from an island near alaska.....ooooookkkkkkkk

Annie Oakley is a day late and a dollar short.

We don't know anything about this women, I can't believe that no one can interview her but those that are on McCain side like Hannity please!!

If this was Obama this would not be stood for at all. What make her so different and why are these reporters not being more persistence about getting a way to ask her some tough guestions. Something is really wrong with this picture. My vote goes to Obama for President and I am a proud women against Palin crap.

Sarah Palin: the Clarence Thomas of women.

It's nice that she supports Obama's efforts to clean up Washington. She should be quite happy under an Obama presidency.

She is a tool for the Republicans, they knew she would bring alot of controversy,and that is why they chose her. I am just surprised she is not smart enough to figure out.

Here's what's rich: McCain and Palin have repeatedly said that Obama hasn't presented one bill and also that he has never ever worked across the aisle.

Now Palin introduces a "new" bill that has already been co-authored by a one republican and one democrat...Obama.

You cannot make this stuff up!!!!!!! Does the McCain camp even proof read this stuff????

She wants "transparency"?

What about Troopergate?

If she is for real she would put her money where her big mouth is and let the Alaskan legislature investigate.

There are all stuck in that famous bridge to God knows.

Now she's going to claim Obama copied her idea.

This is getting too predictable.

It's not her fault. The blame is with her campaign staff who did not check out the information first before she made it part of her speech. Seems double checking information seems to be a problem for the McCain campaign... like vetting Palin.

That is.... unless she said it without telling anyone about it first so it could be checked out.

They have tried hard to steal the CHANGE message from Obama, now she is trying to steal the government spending transparency.

Do they have anything ORIGINAL, so that they can claim it is there's -

Of course, the current economic situtation, war in Iraq, budget deficit, unemployment, foreclosures, nearly 10 trillion in debt ................................

Go Hawkeyes!

Civil Disobedience in the Heartland! God I love this state!

Welcome Ms. Palin to Grand Rapids, Ohio, home of the University of Idaho!

Been there. Done that. Already got the t-shirt.

Obama-Biden '08

LOL...I like it...

This is hysterical!!!! I can't stop laughing. Those of you who say you are Democrats but not voting for Obama, I simply do not believe you are true Democrats. Perhaps you are just very wealthy and do not want to pay any extra taxes or perhaps you are racist, but I can't think of any other reason to not support a very bright, gifted man like Barack Obama. He may not be perfect but he does reflect our Democratic values which is the most important thing of all. Even if you don't like him, do what is best for the country and McCain and Palin do NOT put country first. Obama has-he picked Biden and look who McCain chose.

Ha!
Palin go ahead and submit to the Troopergate subpeona's. Dodging looks so suspicious

"There’s just one problem with proposing to put the federal checkbook online – somebody’s already done it. His name is Barack Obama."

Change, Reform Washington, Enough,Ethnics reform(already done by Obama too), Regulation of the financial institutions, now they want to put the checkbook that Obama has already put online, online. Will Obama have any ideas that they haven't tried to copy before the election is over?

McCain/Palin
Change You Can Bet I'll Copy From My Opponent

once again she shows how truly stupid and uninformed she is.
WAKE UP AMERICA

lol jesus how great is THIS??? hahahaha well Palin, little too late, hockey mom
I just can't stop laughing. Biden/Obama please jump on that train and tell that story to millions of people and viewers. This is fantastic, haha.

Obama/Biden by landslide

Please say thanks, but no thanks to that joke from nowhere Alaska...

Please tell McCain that we already had one....his Little Brother Bush!!

Marilyn if you have truly been a democrat all your life and will now vote for the opposition, your only reason would be because Obama is black.

Very funny. Somebody take them out of their misery. The Spain thing and this thing in one day!!!!!!!????

Palin – Just what DO you bring to the ticket?

Funny stuff, from the republicans!

Palin says she would reach across the isle and work with people who don't agree with her, but look at what happens to people who don't agree with her. ehem...troopergate.

I still like her for reasons I really can't explain.

Politics hasn't made me laugh this hard since...well, since the Republican Convention. Thank you, Governor Palin, for doing far more to elect Barack Obama than most of his most active campaign people.

Seemed somebody listened to all the idiots who say Obama hasn't done anything in the Senate. He's done a lot, and the Coburn-Obama act was just one part of the legislation he's worked on. Turn off Limbaugh and go to Google.

No wonder they were keeping her away from the national media.

We really do deserve better than this...

LOL

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This is the next Ad Obama airs against McLame ...

Too funny, too funny indeed !!!

were are the trolls.... ??????

It is a same for Democrats like Marilyn who can't get over race to decide the future. What is worse is you would rather over look the facts and still find the energy to vote for the same suffering that Bush has inflicted that today makes the USA one of the poorest countries

For every Democrat who will support McCain, there are four Republicans who will either vote for Obama or stay home, among my friends. Palin pushed a couple more out of the Republican column. John McCain is no Rhodes Scholar, but Palin makes him look smart. Perhaps that was on his mind when he selected her.

This is without a doubt the most hilarious story I have read all day, or at least it would be if there wasn't a serious chance this nitwit could end up president.

100+ comments on this article, and not a single one shows support for the McCain/Palin ticket. go dems!

OUT OF TOUCH!!! Let us shake up Washington and re-invent the wheel.

The old senile Senator from Arizona and the Hockey Mom are already bringing Washington to their knees! See it's working! They've got them shaking in their boots with all this reform talk!

Like the rest of us.... shaking with laughter!

Thank's for the reform Barack.... 2 years ago! With the help of a Republican, so much for not crossing the aisle!

GOOOOOO Bama '08!

Googled again.... still no hits....

Now you know why she is not allowed to speak without being coached first.

You guys have no clue what you are talking about, she's a hockey mom and a reformer, a pit bull with lipstick and she knows energy because without Alaska we would still use candles for light and she's very very strong and maverick also, and she has executive experience, she knows what it means to fire somebody, so please stop all your sexist attacks...

Just kidding

McBush and Saracuda don't have a clue!

I am a Canadian (born and raised in Africa) who married an American, Seriously if the prospect McCain/Pailin gives an African born like me goosebumpscare (trust me I have seen a lot!), this is a true nightmare. The recent WALL street events tragic as they were... they may have helped to show who' s actually making sense. Some people just need to be gagged right now!!

America you dont need this - wake up from your slumber and FAST! Vote for Obama and restore sanity to your country.

this is pretty funny, I almost feel sorry for her. palin is such a joke! send her back to her mayor job to work in the drive thru city hall.

Copying another one of Baracks ideas.

McCain Palin Ready to Follow, NOT Ready to Lead.

Sarah its 46 days to go, please dear, don't speak ,just stand there and look pretty. Who am I kidding I just love the daily McCain Palin comedy hour..

good grief! this country is a mess, because of stoopid like this.

She doesn't know much. what a joke.

Bet people lap up her idea like she is proposing something new.

Obama has shown judgement and wisdom consistently

wooot...she's gonna do something already done.

Yay for her...but Sarah...what will you do that still needs doing?

NOTHING of course...because you're a telecommuter VP that will spend her term either at home using yahoo to conduct business for the country (don't forget to cc the 'first dude"), or behind bars..best go check on all those law suits against you. You obviously have no clue about what our country needs.

I guess she didn't see that coming...what's a ticket these republicans!

McCain/Palin represent "a bridge to nowhere!" Obama/Biden represent the rebuilding of the Clinton "bridge to the 21st century." Now that BUSH has distracted us (and practically destroyed everything along the way), it is time to get back on track, leave McCain/Palin in our tracks, and follow true leaders: Obama/Biden.

What's next? Maybe she can invent a small mobile device from which you can send and receive e-mails. Too late, her running mate already did that.

James Carville is right! September 15 will go down as the day McSame/Painful lost this.

Spain, Troopergate, Now this.

There seems to be no final answer to the question, "How stupid can they get."

This Republican is voting Democrat.

Marilyn September 18th, 2008 3:26 pm ET

It just doesn't matter. I've been a Democrat all my life, but I do not like, do not trust, and will NOT vote for Obama. McCain will get my vote this year.

PEOPLE LIKE THIS ARE THE REASON THIS COUNTRY IS IN SUCH BAD SHAPE.

No Matter WHAT the GOP does they DO NOT CARE.

Racism is a STRONG Drug!

Marilyn:
"IT" Doesn't matter? What is "IT"? You mean this country doesn't matter? THat is what you vote against if you think having this woman one step away from the presidency is somehow acceptable.
Hope you don't have kids. You are selling their future by your lack of "caring about "IT"

How pathetic that is!

Again, this lady is a joke.

McCain is a joke.

They can even check the record before she start to shoot her mouth>

Thank GOD for Sarah Palin. Keep it coming! We need more fresh ideas from Palin (Obama)...hahahahahaha!!

Not to be mean but this woman makes GW Bush look like Einstein!

Your'e lucky you to be governor 'Miss Moose Killa from Wasilla!'

CNN knows this, and now a lot of bloggers know that this was an idea that Obama had already implemented. BUT the Republican political machine long ago figured out that the truth is really pretty much irrelevant in the minds of the voters. People will believe what they want to believe.

And in all honesty, there are so many lies and distortions that are served up every day of the campaign, the it is almost impossible for the average person to sort out what is and isn't true. Once you have created a climate where no one has the guts to call a lie a bald faced lie in print, fiction can easily be substituted for fact – at least for a news cycle or two, which is all you need.

Wow, nice try Sarah. To bad we know who the REAL agents of change are in this election. The Republican parties ideas have been tried, THEY FAILED. Time for new leadership. Quit trying to plagiarize Obama's message. If you don't have any ideas of you own to bring to the table, maybe you should step down as McCain's VP, or at least stop being a complete puppet.

What??? How dare Obama have the intelligence and foresight to bring an initiative to Washington 2 years before Palin used it as part of her stump speech! What a sexist!

Omg this woman has no djfhfkh clue at all.

She is not ready at all.

this is a joke.... ppl are not stupid.... mcbush/pain are such copy cats. get ur own ideas.

OBAMA 08

Senator McCain, Gov Palin, I would donate a quarter to your cause so you can call 1-800-GET -CLUE, butt it is a toll free call. But then again someone would have to tell you what to ask.
Road to nowhere.
Bridge to no where.
Campaign to nowhere
and intelligence is nowhere to be found.

"It just doesn't matter. I've been a Democrat all my life, but I do not like, do not trust, and will NOT vote for Obama. McCain will get my vote this year."

Why don't you trust or like him?

What views of yours do McCain represent?

Do you trust somebody who has demonstrably lied in attacks ads and public appearances, and been caught in those lies, and continues to tell the lies even after its pointed out that they are lies? You trust somebody who lies to your face repeatedly?

How do you justify it?

BUUUUUURRRRRNNNNNNN!!!

Ouch Palin. That's gotta hurt! The funny part, though, is that she'll keep on repeating the same dumb line to thunderous applause for weeks to come.

This is just WAY too funny!

DV

oh...this is just too good!!!

Obama Obama Obama, was ahead of his time. SLAM DUNK!

hhmmm is it time to bring back the kids? ;oP

This is soooo sad. Now do her supporters realize that she can not run this country. It will get worse. Go Obama, the job is already a don deal and she did not know it.

This is for all the people that try to say Obama has not done anything substantive in government. Most of the people get on internet and claim Obama has no experience never look at the facts about his voting record. Palin is just a political lightweight and misinformed on the issues.

She did not propose to put the Federal checkbook online. Read what she actually said: She just promised to bring that kind of transparency to all of Washington D.C. She used it as an example of the transparency she will bring throughout all of Washington. You are all so ill-informed

Now she is saying Palin – McCain ticket. He better watch out looks like the inbreed husband of hers will push McBush down the stairs.

Fish/Lipstick 08 the campaign to nowhere!

Boy isn't she inovative. She is so informed on the issues. What a complete moron.

CNN, you can even say OB has ever been a "governor" somewhere other than a community organizer. You can also say it is indeed "Americans" need OB to be the president of USA other than "the European countries".

Keep talking Governor!! Oops, that might be hard to do with your foot in your mouth.

The veneer is coming off, and people are rightfully infuriated with this liar.

Obama '08, Obama '08

She certainly provides a plethora of comedy material! this will go well with "thanks but no thanks!" and "she never requested earmarks as Governor of Alaska!" or "I can see Russia from my house."

You couldn't make this stuff up. Priceless.

LOL Ha ha ha ha aaaha. OoooooWe. As they say "a day late and a dollar short". She is a Few cards short of a full deck. We can win just by letting her talk. Come on McSame put her out there we can use the laughs. This made my day and I can't wait to hear what you have in store for me tomorrow. You better take her back and reshuffle the deck or give her back that tired speech that she loves to give.

I call her Palin the Parrot because she repeats the same things over and over and over and over and when she tries to think of something new to say she does not answer the question. "What specific foreign experience do you have" Prock – I am confident in my confidence – Prock! I love it!

What's available now is no where near what she's talking about to acheive full accountability...it's only a beginning. But let us not confuse what she's proposing, with the limited amount of information available today.

QUICK!!!! Someone tell her that the Personal Computer has ALSO been Invented already before she takes credit for that too!

That's hilarious. Thanks for the good laugh Prom Queen!

She really is an original maverick! What a joke!

OMG...trying to write a serious, well thought out response but I am too busy laughing at the inept McCain-Palin ticket to do that right now!!!

Uh... well what do you expect from someone who claims to have dressed up as Tina Fey for Halloween? (I've seen Tina Fey. She's not Dracula for God's sake). I wonder how often Palin had to explain, as she trick-or-treated, who she was 'supposed to be.'

Wow! What a knucklehead.

Hopefully, the mainstream news media picks up on this instead of letting this idiocy from Palin go unchecked and unchallenged!

Palin is an idiot and she shows it more and more each day. Rove is right, the excitement over Palin will die down because Americans are not dumb and they'll realize soon enough that Mccain/Palin are impostors and liars.

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

Palin needs to just stop.....

Another reason to vote for Obama. Palin/McCain are at least, conservatively speaking, one step behind Obama at every turn. She is a joke.

Wait. I thought Obama NEVER reached across the isle. LOL!!

You're just a little late Palin...maybe you better ask your handlers things before you go shooting off your mouth on things you know nothing about...but then you probably would never be able to talk!!

That's because the Republicans want someone who doesn't know hardly anything about US (or Foreign) policy of any kind to be VP. The Republicans also want someone who doesn't even know how to use a computer to be President....this is frightening on several levels. Needless to say... OBAMA/BIDEN 2008!!

OK, FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON'T HAVE THE GUTS TO SAY IT, HERE IT GO'S.......... SARAH PALIN HAS NO EXPERIENCE TO BE THIS COUNTRY'S VICE PRESIDENT NOR 1 HEARTBEAT AWAY FROM BEING OUR PRESIDENT AND MORE IMPORTANTLY ********SHE'S A LIAR*******SHE HAS TOLD AND GOTTEN CAUGHT TELLING MORE LIES SINCE BEING NAMED MCSAMES RUNNING MATE AND I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE AMERICAN PEOPLE OUT THERE WHO ARE TAKEN BY HER BS. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE OLD MAN JUST PICKED HER TO BOOST HIS LOOSING CAMPAIGN.

PEOPLE, PLEASE GET A CLUE............................

The McCain/Palin ticket has copied Obama so many times that they should just go ahead and endorse him.

CNN moderators you disgust me. You are more than happy to post all of these liberals' disgustingly ill-informed comments and you have not once posted any of my well thought out posts. I am disgusted with you and plan to email your headquarters and whatever else I have to do to be heard. You are intentionally trying to push this election in Obama's direction. There are 10 liberal posts on here for every 1 conservative post and that is shameful

McCain is in trouble – maybe not from Obama but from Palin.

Her saying the 'Palin/McCain administration' in Cesar Rapids, IA today was not a Freudian slip. It is what she plans on it being.

The thing is, it may have already started – where she is controlling the campaign more then he is.

If elected, we will find out some day that since McCain subcumbed to his age, disease, whatever early in the administration, it had been Palin who was in charge.

She is in the process of taking over the campaign and, if elected, the administration. This should scare everyone – including John McCain.

Good to see Palin is doing her homework before opening her mouth. Then they'll go around continuing to say that Obama has done nothing.

Another thing which has nothing to do with this article.. but does anyone else think it's funny that McCain is more protective of ANWR than Palin? Really... it's her back yard but McCain is more concerned about preserving it than she is. I hate to do it.. it pains me.. but ok, for this.. I applaud McCain.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!

PRICELESS! She keeps making it worse and worse for herself.

I said no thanks to a bridge project that was already shut down. What's the Bush Doctrine? I have an idea that Obama already came up with!

Every day that goes by and she has the opportunity to talk it really makes you realize how out of touch she is along with her running mate. I hope that this little tid bit gets discussed on CNN and other media outlets so the rest of the world can see how ill informed she really is.

I delighted to see that CNN actually referenced to where OBAMA did reach across the aisle and get something accomplished. Often, CNN reports on McCain surrogates claiming that OBAMA did nothing in the way of bi-partisan efforts. They usually never correct the surrogate or add fact-check type references of thier own. This is good reporting that needs to be done on both sides.

If you believe McCain and Palin are reformers, I've got a bridge to sell you in Alaska...har har...

stop stealing our ideas and research bills before you open your mouth ya dtiz

It is absolutely frightening that this woman is so close to being our President.

TOO RISKY!!!!
TOO EXTREME!!!

Vote for the voice of hope, change, inclusion, growth and strength:
Obama '08

You mean Obama saw this way, way before this hockey mom had a clue this should be done in Washington??

I think she is just is of touch - too bad McClueless should have told her..he is more out of touch!

Here we go again. Sarah does her research and then says she will do so. When will people wake up, that she has no credibility. She and McCain are clueless on everything. As for McCain, ask what he has done for Arizona.......................N O T H I N G.

this woman has no sense of political history – first she said no other VP has ever met a foreign leader prior to being voted in office (LIE) now this whole check book issue. Had she taken the time to research like most voters do – she would stop putting her moose where the sun don't shine

Sarah Palin does not know much about the Government so I don't expert her to know something like this. Anyone who believes that seeing an Island that belongs to Russia makes them a foreign policy expert is delusional at best.In the interest of civility, I'll reserve further comments..

Oops... I guess her homework is incomplete. I blame McCain for this (getting someone with limited knowledge).
I have a feeling this will not be her last oops moment!!!

WHO PICKED THIS LADY? SHE IS CLUELESS.

OBAMA DID THAT LONG TIME AGO....JUST FOLLOW THE LEADER

McCain and Pali have stolen CHANGE for BO/JB08 and Obama has to be careful if not Palin will still his name. What a couple of desparados McPlain.

Wow. Looks like someone needs to program the Barbie-bot so that she can get her information straight. McLame, this is your VP choice? Really? Are Americans being punk'd or something?

No way, no how–no McBush/Failin!

08AMA/Biden

I'm starting to wonder if McCain/Palin are PURPOSELY trying to copy anything that Obama does, in an effort to make (ignorant) Americans think that McCain/Palin are a lot like Obama "so why not vote for McCain/Palin?". If that's the case, McCain/Palin are FOLLOWERS, not leaders like Obama/Biden.

I'm seeing a trend and it's PATHETIC.

That is too funny. Seems like the McCain/Palin camp cannot come up with any ideas on their own, and have to take them all from the Obama play book. I see a pattern here. LOL, that one thing she proposes has already been done.... by her opponent! Next thing we know she will be accusing him of stealing the idea from her! She appears clueless, about everything...including what a VP does!! You really gotta laugh at this one....

I don't know why the media is not doing a big story on how the McCain team is doing everything the obama team does after the obama team does it. First the message of changes, now the transparency proposal. OOoh ya, thanks for the blackberry, what a genius of a team McCain has!!!!!

LOL
She is clueless!!!

Please do your homework before you talk....

Oh, that's new: McCain / Palin criticize Obama's "lack of experience and leadership..." and then promptly follow in his footsteps...

Actually, I wanted to comment on a previous entry which CNN has closed comments for: Palin being heckled in Cedar Rapids. It's not being reported anywhere, but Palin actually CANCELLED a rally in Seattle WA. No reason was given by the campaign. But I can tell you why:

The woman would have been tarred & feathered and run out of the state. Seriously. 4 protestors? She would have had 1000 if she would have come to Seattle. Obama is fighting for every vote in every state (well... maybe not Alaska...). The GOP seems to be writing off states left and right.

This is getting really pathetic. Anyone still on board for this woman is just plain ignorant. This ticket is constantly flip flopping back to Obama's policies and plans. If you vote McCain/Palin, you are basically saying that you're a irreconcilable fascist that puts yourself ahead of country.

ONE NATION

The McCain camp is being called out and they can't stand the it! If she did her homework, she would have known that this has been done already??? And you want her to be VP??? If she really care about that position not the prestige, she would have been known. What a joke!

BUAHA HA HA HA HA

SHE IS SOOOOO SLOW.

COPYCATS

No surprise. Obama runs on Change, now Grandpa runs on change. Obama states "enough is enough", now Grandpa states enough is enough.

Folks, this women should not be VP.

THIS IS GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND PEOPLE REALLY WANT HER AS THEIR VP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11

McCain is flirt and Palin is a Empty skirt. If these two win this country will be last not first.

Let her keep on putting her foot in her mouth

It just doesn't matter. I've been a Democrat all my life, but I do not like, do not trust, and will NOT vote for Obama. McCain will get my vote this year.

John from PIttsburgh September 18th, 2008 3:17 pm ET

She wouldn't have known that being that she is a hockey mom from Alaska with an online degree.
----

Now, now. She went through five stints at four actual colleges over the course of six years to get that Bachelor's degree in Communications.

"Hello Grand Rapids!!!!! Oops, Cedar Rapids. Now that I've screwed that up, let me tell you about a new transparency bill for the budget I've come up with. Darn I messed that up too. You know I was against the Bridge to Nowhere....." She is completley lost. McCain is probably cringing with each comment she makes. No wonder they do so few "solo" events with her. She's a disaster

DEMOCRAT IN HIDING...

Are you nuts???? We are all in favor if it- this article is just proving your candidate doesn't know anything on the Federal level and is not qualified to be VP or POTUS. And on an even funnier note- it is her rival that created the CHANGE and the other half of her ticket..ie her new boss, that supported it....already.

Get it?

I believe it is time to put Palin on eBay.

Thanks, but NO THANKS.
You have been exposed Palin! The bloom has come off the rose!

OBAMA/BIDEN (No drama!)

Just goes to show you how important it is to READ....especially when you are running for a huge (that's a big person) job. Some of us who barely got under grad lberal arts degrees in so-so schools really didn't read the hard stuff or things with BIG WORDS...like laws. I wonder why she did not pursue a graduate degree??? May TOO HARD ???? Guess it was easier to go into local politics .

Welcome Gov. Palin to team Obama, we appreciate your support

Maybe it's time for Sarah to review what's already been done in Washington by legislators who ARE busy doing the nation's work instead of flying around the country spouting generic empty promises.

Or better yet, maybe we should take a look at the 'transparency'
of the Alaskan gov't under Ms Palin (fiscal and otherwise) and find out the real reasons behind the Troopergate shutout by Republicans, as well as the allegations of secrecy,favoritism, dismissals based on personal animosities and other misconduct on Ms Palin and her husband's part.

Let's see the financial info on the 300 nights she charged the State a substantial per diem when she was at home with her family. ....and the money spent on family activities and lodging when she was traveling......and how much money she lost on the sale of the jet, etc. etc.

*sigh* It's bad enough that the proposal already exists but it was actually proposed by Obama. I mean, this is why GOOGLE was invented.

EITHER SHE IS SO UNKNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT WHAT"S THERE OR
SHE JUST WANTS TO GET CREDITS FOR SOMEONE ELSE's WORK, IN THIS CASE OBAMA.

VOTERS PLEASE DO NOT GET FOOLED BY HER TALK.

MEDIA, CNN, TIMES, .... PLEASE RAISE THE AWARENESS TO PEOPLE.

AMERICANS NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE REAL CHARACHTER OF THEIR REPUBLICAN VP.

Geez, Sarah are you really that stupid. Before your next speech you might want to make sure your folks have done some fact checking.

McCain/ Palin should take a notebook and ask Obama to teach them some lessons! They have a lot to learn!

GOOD JUDGEMENT – that is what a leader neeeds to have, not necessary experience.

I can only formulate one response to those comments of hers.

EL OH EL.

Obama-Biden '08!

You are a joke Palin!! Welfare for the CEO's is all you repugs do

"There’s just one problem with proposing to put the federal checkbook online – somebody’s already done it. His name is Barack Obama."

LOL!! What an idiot this Palin is.

I do not like Palin but I also do not think the woman is stupid.
What has happened however is this.
McCain picked a woman who is not even close to being prepared to handle the job he picked her for. He has thrust her into this roll and tried to lie to all of us to make it seem she knows more than she does.
This choice says so much about the judgement of this man. It is actually frightening to think he could possibly be in charge of this country.
Palin has been used and used badly in this whole deal. What I can't understand is if she is so independent why on earth would she have alowed herself to be taken advantage of in this way?

JOHN MCCAIN WAS A CO-SPONSOR ON THE CHECKBOOK ONLINE BILL. HE WAS AS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT AS OBAMA. YOU REFUSE TO GIVE HIM CREDIT WHERE IT IS DUE.

Country Frist? Which country because it appears the dynamite ding dong team isn't paying too much attention to what's going on in this one; they get their news 2nd hand from the Obama ticket. Surely McCain and Palin could get up-to-the minute news on their Blackberry?

Wow! Between McCain getting old and Palin not having a clue in the first place, we are in trouble with these two. Is this really the best that the Republicans have to offer?

Caribou Barbie strikes again! A little research would be helpful, Sarah.

Macain and Sara want to be like Obama. They want to use Obama's ideas and his vission and take them for thier own. Problem is, the American people are vigilant and wise and they know fluff and fluke when they see two of them as in macain/palin.

Obama brought change into campaign '08 and if Mcain try to fool the American people by talking change now, problem is, it is still Obama/Biden with the VISSION AND NEW IDEAS FOR CHANGE FOR OUR GOVERNMENT TO WORK FOR ALL THE PEOPLE. ONE AMERICA, VISSION FOR CHANGE. OBAMA AND BIDEN, PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, 2009-2016.

hummm.... funny I don't see any comments from the Republicans!

How can you justify voting for someone who CLEARLY has no clue as to what she's doing and saying??

Tell Governor Palin the only transparency we need from her and the people in Alaska is to accept those subpoenas and testify.

Once Again Mccain And Palin Follow Obamas Lead! They Keep Taking About How Obama Has Done Nothing Them They Take Something He Has Already Accomplished And Try To Turn It Into One Of Their Original Ideas! If You Fact Check Everything Mccain And Palin Say You Will Find It All To Be Misleading Or An Outright Lie!

She made a transparent proposal.

She claims to have reduced earmarks as governor. But, she accepted the dollars for the BTN anway. If you add those dollars on top of the "reduced" earmarks dollars, what do you get? An effective increase.

hmm, good idea. thanks for thinking of it, BARACK. oh, and what's more, it seems to have been a BIPARTISAN effort. golly gee, thanks for calling our attention to this, Ms. Palin. everytime you open your mouth you just highlight what an excellent candidate your opponent is.

three cheers for future President Barack Obama!!!!!!!!!

HaHa...trying to take credit for what Obama and team members already done...gagg....yet you say He's never lifting a finger to do anything. Palin you are a joke, a trick, an illusion and soon a reality that you are a fake.

I wish Obama would get hardcore and run an ad with all the Republican "ideas" that are actually copycats of his accomplishments. Take it off the table for the opponents. Let them find their own darn ideas!!

Whew!! Enough is enough!

Their policies are george bush's,

Their Ads are karl rove's

Their message is Obama's

They stole his "change" message

Now they want to copy his "transparency" ideas

Transparency, now that's a new concept for Palin! Too funny, obviously she has no clue about what is actually going on in the U.S or the rest of the world either. Interesting info. on Anderson Cooper last nite? Her claim to be such a "fiscal hawk" left her Alaskin town in deep debt when she was Mayor. More proof that she "abuses" power, she started a project there even knowing they didn't own the property! Scary.

Of course she didn't know about this. No one from McCain's campaign acknowledges any of Obama's accomplishments. Too little, too late.

Oh my God... THAT. IS. HILARIOUS.

Typical

Ugh I think she was mainly referring to earmarks and unessasery spending CNN.

CNN; Why so much coverage of Palin? You barely give Joe Biden any coverage. I'm tired of seeing her read-read-read... Nothing ever comes from the heart or straight from her head. She and McCain have no intention of doing what they say. I don't belive this ticket, it's a farce.

Palin welcome to accountabilities and transpiracy in Washington put in place by Obama.

The old man has been in washington for 26 years and can't account for anything he has done that benefit Americans.

Obama come to washington 3 years and has already shown he can work for Americans.
Greate job Obama....yes he has done it and he will do it again.

this would all be funny if it wasn't so disturbing. Has McCain and his people just lost it? They've definitely lost direction and don't make much sense lately. One day to another -one hour to another they contradict themselves. Come up with inane ideas and plans... Just today McCain said he'd fire the SEC president – he can't it's not within the Presidents power to do so. He's lost his grip... perhaps some of the rumors about his health are true?

Palin, pls. go back to Alaska. Ooops....forgot.....they don't like you either.

THANK YOU CNN for posting the truth.

SARAH PALIN IS A LIAR.

Drop in Oil =37%
drop in gas=7%
Congress is the only group that can change that and the dems lead congress. What do you think of your party now. They are using your hard urned to put their party in office.

McCain is qualified and so is Obama. Palin is neither highly educated or experienced. There is no way we as Americans can entrust her with the gigantic and complex U.S. economy.

DOH!

Well, i guess her Bush prep team will pull the leash in on her...LOL
Baby girl stick to the script!! LOL

Another try to steal others works, Ideas, and Slogans.

The GOP Way..Take what works for them then claim it as our own.

ANYTHING in the desperate try to remain in power.

Think of this for ONE second.

They LOSE and they become ONE OF US. Who would hire them at a SALARY? Who will they Matter too?

"Have I got an original idea for you that will really reform America.
Let's put the checkbook on-line"

*Liberman whispers in ear*

what's that. Who? He did?
Ooops, ah
hmmmm.

Did I mention I can smell the Borsch from my backyard?

Hillary she ain't!!! lol lol lol
Vote OBAMA, the SANE choice!

Given that the woman didn't know what the VP's office did a few weeks ago, or what the Bush Doctrine is, or remember that she originally said YES to the bridge to nowhere and KEPT the money even after she flip flopped...

Does it really need to be in the news that she's clueless about things? I think Obama had more constituents as a State Senator than she did as governor.

No wonder they don't have her taking questions on the stump – she's just eye candy (*HA*) to draw people to McCain rallies! Oh this is hilarious, welcome President Obama

What's the difference between a pitbull and Sarah Palin? The pitbull can generally be trained to do smart things.

WHAT A PATHETIC PHONY! = Barack Obama

Wow. The only thing transparent here is her head.

the mccain/palin campaign, are going to release a music video called"yes we can" starring celebrity endorsers like Donald Trump and Chuck Norris

Proof she has no idea what is going on in DC...

When McCain picked Rush Limbaugh's favorite for VP, he got exactly what he deserved: Now his campaign is complaining about Obama ads linking him with Limbaugh. Sorry, no sympathy here.

When you lie down with snakes, you'll come up poisoned every time.

What a joke.

This is just plain funny.....

The refusal to testify or honor subpoenas in a Congressional Investigation is not Transparency. It is just more of the same. How stupid do you think we are?

Every time she opens her mouth, she says something stupid and she's almost as inarticulate as Bush. No wonder the McCain campaign is keeping her away from the press and unscripted appearances.

Copycat.
Or the silly ditz knows as much as McCain does about the Commerce Committee he sat on.
She knows enough to try to stop the special investigator looking into her abuses of power in Alaska and to try to stop her impeachment.

Nice try, ding dong. Go back to Alaska and shoot something, we're sick to the back teeth of you.

She stole his 'Change' lines – now she's stealing his ideas! Wasn't the GOP the party of big ideas – seems like they're big stolen ideas!

Ooops... I guess Bush's top advisers didn't know that distortion would be able to be backed up with fact. In fact legislation that Barack Obama initiated. What has Sarah Palin initiated for the American people and not just the "Great State of Alaska"? That's right nothing.

Wow...why haven't the Dems jumped on this...its HUGE!!!! shows her lack of experience and highlights Obamas

Panama Jack and the Drilla From Wasilla are rapidly descending into self-parody.

Remember on the old Star Trek, when Ensign Chekhov kept claiming that the Russians invented *everything*? That's how I'm starting to feel about McCain/Palin... a couple of braggards that keep spinning their tall tales:

Yes, in Alaska, we have wonderful system for government transparency!

We oppose wasteful bridge to nowhere!

Thanks but no thanks for the millions in earmarks we accepted!

I "helped create" the "miracle" of the BlackBerry!

Straight Talk, indeed. More like DOUBLE TALK!

Palin said "that kind of" not specifically a on-line checkbook. This is a reidiculous story that takes something someone said and tries to imply it means something else. Obama supporters will go to town on this, but lets be smart and actually read what she said. People need to grow up and stop jumping to conclusions..the few post on here show that most have not even read or viewed the segement that the article itself distorts. No wonder people are confused.

LOL! This lady is so clueless. I watched a part of her and McCain's "town hall" q&a last night. She danced around the question of "readiness." If we elect her and McCain, America will look super stupid!

Poor Palin! She's so naive.................................i almost sorry for her!

The more she talks, the more she'll hang herself, it's really a shame that McCain pick her..........very insulting.

LOL.

Hang on a second.

LOL.

McCain needs to get new advisors to his campaign...this is bad.

Grasping at straws.

She is so stupid!!! I can't get over just how stupid she is. Really.

Chalk that up with the Bush Doctrine and the other issues she is oblivious to.

as an independent leaning towards Obama / Biden – everyone on this list should continue your commentary targeted towards people like me,,,talk those voters that have not yet made up their mind...and let them see the light!

SARAH.....SARAH....SARAH....

DON'T YOU DARE start talking about "transparency proposal" when YOU WON'T EVEN COOPERATE IN YOUR OWN INITIATED TROOPERGATE INVESTIGATION!!

NOW YOU ARE CRYING THAT THE PANEL YOU, YOURSELF APPOINTED, IS NOW "TAINTED OR BIAS", WHEN 3 OUT OF THE 5 PANEL MEMBERS ARE REPUBLICANS!!!

CAN WE ALL SAY: LIAR, LIAR, LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE!!

YOU ARE TRYING TO HIDE BEHIND THESE DELAYS AND DERAILING TACTICS!!!

DO WE LOOK STUPID TO YOU BABY GIRL? I mean, YOU HAVE PROVEN YOURSELF TO THE VOTERS IN THIS COUNTRY AS SOMEONE WHO IS.,..

1. A LIAR
2. A BULLY
3. MANIPULATIVE
4. SELF-CENTERED
5. DIVISIVE
6. DISHONEST
7. COMBATIVE

Let us here IN WASHINGTON tell you where you can TAKE your "transparency proposal" .... I think if you bend over we can just stick it where it BELONGS!!!.

LOL, LOL! Barack Obama's ideas again STOLEN. Why didn't her advisors do their homework? ZZZZZ

Hahahaah ... funny funny "McSame" and "NoWhere Bridge Sarah"
Try to get some innovative ideas.... as U r Maverics.. remember??? hahahah

Amazing. Absolutely Amazing that this woman continues to try and get away with blatant lies and false truths. Meanwhile the national press are letting her get away with it. Nice interview with Sean Hannity last night Sarah. Real tough questions there huh. That guy couldn't have tossed more softballs to you if he was in a bar league tournament.

That said I really have faith in Americans. They're not stupid. They won't fall for this "oh we're not really Republicans like the ones that have ruined this country" crap that McCain and Palin are trying to sell. It's amazing, if there wasn't an elephant on their ticket they'd have you believe they were running as independents and that they didn't campaign for the clown thats in office now the past 8 years.

ILook Palin who has the upper hand Obama Obama Obama. Two steps ahead.

OMG! This is tooo insane! It just keeps getting worse.

OMG!The World is trembling as we may end up with Gidget in the Playboy mansion...I mean White House!

John McCantRememberMyName is losing Spain as an Ally.Way to go John! Lets fight a World War III -This time it be USA vs the World!

OMG! Stop these clowns pleas. What little respectability we have left internationally is dwindling by the day.
God help us all!
Obama-Biden 08

On SNAP! How funny! Maybe she can suggest some more ideas – such as inventing the blackberry.

Doesn't Sarah realize that her claims and comments can be easily verified?....and have. What a fool she is and what a mess the Republican ticket has become.

Not only was it already done, but it was done by OBAMA!!!

Sarah Palin, please sit down. On a plane. Back to Alaska.

Thanks Sarah, good to know you understand that Obama is years ahead of you in getting things actually done.

Ouch, and Obama reached across the aisle to do it! Since Palin is given her talking points, didn't anybody think to research this a bit?

Oh, Snap!

That hurts. It sounds like a great idea, because it is, and Obama already did it – in a bi-partisan effort.

Ouch!

Good for us, bad for the liars.

Obama said he will run the decent campaign but he didn’t

Mc Cain said he will run the decent campaign but he didn’t

MSNBC supporting Obama

Fox supporting Mc Cain

CNN said CNN will be independent that also didn’t happen

? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? ! ? !

We are not stupid

Hillary we are really miss you

So much for the Repub claim that Obama doesn't work across party lines. His record has not been touted as much as it should have been. He is responsible for much legislation that has not even been discussed, leaving the McCain team to say he has done nothing. Here is one example of many.

woooooooooooooooow..........way to go gal

ha ha hah ah aha haa ha aha ha ha ah aha ha ha ha a
oh stop it hurt
hah ah aha ha hah ah aha ha ah ah aa

no seriously stp it
oh ha ahah aha ha ah ah aha ha ha a ha ha

what a joke

Nothing is happening for the pair. I am almost sad for them.. They might as well take the Obama website and change the Name to Mcsame.

What is so wrong with what she said. She is simply endorsing Obama. You go girl.

I'm laughing so hard right now, I'm actually crying! Sarah "Caribou Barbie" Palin is just too much for me to handle. Send her back to her pink mansion in Alaska.

Just for clarification, John McCain was also a sponsor of that bill along with Obama. Funny how they don't point that out until the last line of the article, and all of you liberals conveniently give credit to Obama and not McCain for it.

A little advice for the beauty queen. When you dig yourself into a hole the first rule is to stop digging. I think Joe Biden was wrong. The third sequel to Dumb and dumber is better.

It astonishes me just how poorly vetted and even more poorly handled poor Governor Palen is been. She is clearly way above her pay grade and reminds me of Ross Perot's running mate when he said "Who am I and what am I doing here?"

I'm not a fan of hers but, I have to say, I've gone from fearing her stardom...to recognizing a formidable opponent who has flaws...to pity...in just two short weeks!

Hey, Sarah, Great idea!!

I liked it even more when Senator Obama created it a few years ago. Perhaps you and your running mate need a few more lessons in navigating the internet.

Oh yah Sara, that’s what Obama, was doing while he was community organizer. So I guess he did more then write a book. If you know that, you would not be taking credit for some of his and others work.

Obama campaign use this as a commercial!

Also Obama campaign you guys owe it to cnn to do some more interview exclusive's, I recommend campbell brown she is the best and she's gorgeous!!

I'm sure the sheeple in the audience thought this was a great idea that Sarah came up with all by herself. LOL

thanks for the laugh today, i needed it !!

Goodness, first it was McCain trying to steal the "Change" mantle from Obama, then it was using "Enough is Enough" in their campaign ads, and now Sarah is proposing something that Barack accomplished two years ago.

Next thing you know, McCain and Pain will show up on the campaign trail and introduce their daughters Malia and Sasha.

This has gone from being ridiculous to absolutely insane...

heh...

There they go again, trying to steal Obama's plans, and make them their own. They see that their "ideas" weren't going to fly this year with the voter's, so now they're stealing Barack's ideas, and hoping personality, she's like me, characteristics can win over voters, all things being "equal".

Where this fails though is like a student cheating on a test. They can spout the right answers now, but can't adapt to new problems that may be a little different, because they don't know how to think on their own.

Hey Palin you can not put something out there when it already exist. What is this everything Obama has done, is doing you guys want to do the same thing.

Please read a book.

She did'nt get the memo?

This is too easy . . . but in order to run the government, one would think, that you have to know SOMETHING about our government.

Please people do not take ANYTHING this woman says serious. It either turns out to be a LIE or just completely WRONG!

I think McCain and Palin is tranparent to each other neither knows what is going on. Palin if you were from here you would have known that but you are an outsiders and didn't care to research your homework before you spoke. Keep talking and the world will see how much you left Alaska in DEBT.

Wow! She really is clueless! Way to go Obama!

Obama/Biden

Devry University : )

When will Americans wake up! The Palin-Mccain ticket has been stealing Obama's ideas and language throughout this campaign and pretending like the made the stuff. Original mavericks – what a joke!

This is unbelievable. Are people so blind and ignorant to actually consider voting for this Republican ticket? I listened to Gov Palin's comments during this rally (since CNN showed in full), although quite painful. She is a joke, literally, being played on very uninformed and unsuspecting citizens. She is simply trying to parrot (actually steal, but I'm being nice) Senator Obama's ideas, plans and comments. These people stand for NOTHING (except maybe greed and power), have ZERO integrity and have the audacity to try and claim sole ownership to patriotism - how pathetic. Senator McCain, you cannot have honor without honesty (Senator Claire McCaskill).

Buffoonery. Just plain buffoonery.

Hum! I guess she was feeling gutsy and drifted briefly from the script she was given to read! I bet big daddy Mc Cain puts her over his knee and gives her a good spanking. AAAHHHHH!! there you have the real reason he wanted Palin as VP! His long affection of beauty queens! Sad to see him go down this way! I voted for him in 2000 now he is just an old pasty shell of a man. He can thank the Radical right wing that has taken over the GOP for that

This "transparency proposal" already exists.....she's beyond laughable. Pathetic.

Lies and Jokes and exageration.

I am getting tired of this woman

Doh!

It probably doesn't matter to McCain. Since it's online he doesn't know how to get there and look for himself.

But she has never stepped foot in the House or Senate, and McCain is not able to goggle this type of information from the Web–

DOESN'T PALIN KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT GOES ON IN WASHINGTON? SOMEBODY NEEDS TO TELL HER WASHINGTON IS NOT ALASKA AND GOD HELP US IF MCCAIN IS THE ONE THAT NEEDS TO TELL HER BECAUSE MCCAIN IS LOST HIMSELF.

goodness, more of the mccain/palin change spin! why are we still surprised at this woman's ignorance and at this campaign's bag of tricks, and mccain's web of lies?

HAHAHAHA!!!! Remember, he's "inexperienced", an "empty suit". If so, then why do they keep stealing his ideas and policies and claiming them for their own??

Barack the Vote!!!!!

It's funny to see you media types go out of your way to discredit everything that comes out of the McCain campaign. If only you guys would be so thorough with Obama. I guess it's too much to ask that you treat the candidates equally. Let me ask you Mr. Hamby, are you a paid employee of the Obama campaign, or do you just volunteer?

Obama the good choice. McCain/Palin the copycat...

That seems to be the narrative of the GOP candidates this year. They have seen how Obama's policies have sparked interest from the public and so they try to pretend they have come up with some of them themselves. CHANGE for example. REFORM for another. Both have nothing to do with the GOP. The words do not exist for Republicans. If they say them the base knows it is a lie and they let it slide. Say anything to fool non-Republicans to vote for the GOP. I'm not buying it...............

HAHAHAHAHAHA breathe HAHAHAHAHAHAHA this just keeps getting better and better.

./grabs his popcorn and waits for the debates.....

What an idiot!

Burn!! And people actually think this person is ready to be Vice President! With a Journalism Degree, she should know to check her resources before speaking.........CNN Please post, Thanks!

The Headline should be changed to recognize the fact she wants to take credit for Obama's ideas.
How about: "Palin advocates Obama's solution"

Duh!!

Obama/Biden '08

How does she keep being allowed to say bs on the trail and stump?? Daily proof that she knows little about anything beyond Alaska...

Yes, this is one of those pieces of legislation that not one Republican or News Anchor could recall when all the lies were being thrown around my McSame and Failin. Obama had never authored any significant legislation.

Check out Obama's Record! There is a lot of substance there actually.

Republicans can only lie, cheat and steal this election. They have no morals to win on anymore.

WAY TO GO CNN!!! Journalism is back!!!

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.... ah.

It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.
There is so much at stake in this election.
Yet another case of McCain/Palin lies and deception, taking credit for ideas and accomplishments they have no right to!

They disgust me!

Once again, she has no clue. Gov. Palin could end up winning this election - for Obama.

Wow

I hope she feels stupid

I didnt know he actually did that, but then again, im not the Governor nor am I running for VP

She should have known that, with her "experience" and all

I hope someone calls her out, like TODAY

I hope she keeps on talking, because she is sounding silly

"There’s just one problem with proposing to put the federal checkbook online – somebody’s already done it. His name is Barack Obama."

What more do people need to know in order to see that Palin is just reading the contents of scripts written by others without checking to see if thery are valid. Prior to accepting the VP offer, I don't think Palin even watch the news. Otherwise, she would know how the media works and would not have accepted it as she knew her past would come home to roost.

Obama/Biden 08

This is just too funny. She is an idiot!

more proof that palin is a 'transparent' fraud. ill be glad after the humiliating loss in November sends her back to the tundra.
whats the difference between dan qualye & sarah palin?
lipstick!

Caribou Cheney is becoming quite a blessing for Obama. Way to bring attention to how Obama has no record of working across the aisle.

In the same week that McSame claims "the fundamentals of the economy are strong."

McInsane and Sarah Pain Gaffes = PRICELESS

GOP supporters...look at real transparency and not just talk about it. Look at bi-partisanship and not just the ghost of what it used to be.

Also look at the Obama-Luger bill as another example of Obama reaching across the aisle to get the job done.

Your candidate with busy riding Bush's coattails.

Finally you guys get aroud to calling her out on this. She's only said it about 20 times already. But aye, better late than never!!

Now make it the headline of all your newscasts. You would if it was Barack or Biden.

Sarah just blumbles along...looking pathetic.

doh...
Just cause I see Taco Bell from my work window doesn't mean I have foreign policy experience.

lol...McCain/Palin ticket is officially the clueless ever in American Presidential history.

One thinks Spain is in Latin America run by a dictator....

The other's reform plan include implementing work already accomplished by the rival candidate.

You can't make this stuff up.

It would be funny if the polls isnt still close. How thick headed do you have to be b4 u see the light?

This has become funny now.
Bush follows Obama's lead.
McCain follows Obama's lead.
Now Palin follows Obama's lead.
Do you know what this is called?
Follow the leader... Obama is the leader. Do as he says...........

That's just plain funny.

You're such a reformer Sarah. And such a breath of fresh air.

You're an original for sure! With original ideas.

Obama/Biden 08

Ooo. Man they are making this so easy . . . . .

Wow does she do any research before opening her mouth?

And this is what half of the media claims that we have fell in love with.

Whatever..............Palin has just gotten on everyones last nerve.

LOL - way to go Sarah. Let's steal some more ideas – as well as slogans - from Barack Obama. So now who's the LEADER?

She wouldn't have known that being that she is a hockey mom from Alaska with an online degree.

So much for her "new" idea... I guess this is why she has been relegated to a script. This is what happens when you allow her to speak off the cuff. Her "handlers" should know better. This is a big deal, because they are the "reform" candidates.

Try again, this idea already exists..

America please wake up... Let's elect someone this year with intelligence!

Oh I love this!!! I knew Barack had great judgement. Yeah, he may sound too good to be true but he's the real deal. Sarah Palin has a lot of catching up to do. Obviously, the policies she's proposing already exist. Thanks but no thanks Palin. We've got it covered.
Barack '08

doh!

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL...You really cannot make this stuff up! I mean seriously. CNN u need to cover this in prime time! Obama does the transparency thing to a new extent. I mean his and Joe's tax return are all over their website. I have not seen Palin's at all.

Palin is proving she doen't know a darn thin.
This is just ridiculous!
Enough is Enough!
She knows nothing!
Hey everybody,I'm going to create to something that somebody else already created!

I now understand why the McCain camp don't want to let her loose. She don't know anything!

Uninformed..

What an idiot. This would be one of those Major Accomplishments that the Republicans say Barack has not accomplished.

See how intelligent she is....

Good Grief America...

Wake UP!!!!

Go figure... Maybe we should do our homework before opening our mouths.

Why don't you try using some transparency in the Troopergate investigation?

Another goof up. Know the facts before you open your mouth. I think you should keep your mouth closed for the next several years, understand how US works before you start talking again.

This goes along the lines of..
But you can see Russia from Alaksa so I know Russians.

oh yeah! weeelll she can see Russia from her home!
can you do that? jajaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

When will people wake up and realize the she is not as creditable as they thought. She is just words, just speeches... She pulled herself up by pulling others down. Not this time, Not in this election.

Oh God,

This stuff is rich. Hollywood couldn't even right this stuff if they tried!!!!

ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oops Sarah. I love your fresh ideas that Barack thought of 2 years ago!

This just shows how Obama is ahead of his time and is the right man for this job!

Doesn't Sarah realize that her comments and claims can be easily verified? A a fool she is and what a mess the Republican ticket has become.

This lady is not ready for prime time. She is out of her league. I hope the Obama team points this out in a major way. Between her and McCain (who now suddenly supports regulation), they both are way behind the curve. Voters, wake up!!!

Too funny....

Love It! OBAMA 08

She is Clueless. She might do well spending time to study what she wants to fix than just saying whatever the GOP winds pumps in her mouth.
She and her buddy are followers, while Obama is the LEADER.

How about we start with the proper use of mail. why do we use personal email accounts to do government business? Mrs Palin should explain to us this first before trying to lecture us.

Yea...that is funny!!!!! Obama is always a step ahead. He will make a great President!

Palin, what do you actually bring to the ticket?

Seems like they just keep stealing Obama's ideas, and they call themselves mavericks?????!!!!! Yeah, right!

They dont have an ideas of their own so what??? what else is new. They should stick to making fun of community organizers and Obama's movie star friends......

Fish/Lipstick 08'

I love her comments. Not only has her opposition done this, but he reached across party lines to do it.

Way to go Sarah Palin. Just who is she running with.

Obama/Biden 08

She's a pro.

palin your 15 mins of fame is up.
just go build your bridge to nowhere.

you are totally stupid and dispicable.

leave the leadership to the smart one.

you and mcbush need to check into the nuthouse.

obama 08

Palin and McCain love to steal other people's ideas, especially Obama's.
I wonder if Palin is going to try and steal Condi Rice's speech on Russia today and try to use it in the debates with Senator Biden.

Yet again............Another "Mis-spoken" word by Gigget. I am fed up the this duo. Enough of this. I pledge my support for Obama-Biden.
John McCain/Sarah Palin are turning this presidential race into a complete joke. I am appuled and ashamed to be a lifelong Republician.

Republican playbook: When down in the polls, copy your opponent's ideas.

LMAO!!!! Good Job, Sarah. As always: A day late and a dollar short!!!

STOP LIYING THROUGH YOUR TEETHS MCCAIN/PALIN/LIE

Call a spade a spade. Gotta love those protesters...way to go gals!

Well, surprise, surprise! McCain and Palin seem to be doing a lot of "copying" these days from Obama's message and policies. Looks like Ms. Sarah learned a thing or two about plagiarism from Botox Barbie McCain! Recipes anyone?

She really has no idea what she is doing... does she.

As if we needed any more proof that she is an idiot.

She's just keeps on shoveling it, doesn't she?

I can't... stop... LAUGHING! I'll probably post again later... Palin is the Democrat's gift that keeps on giving!

LOL now this is funny. I still can't believe that ANYONE thinks this woman is qualified to be VP. Thank you Senator Obama by the way for the openness of the federal budget.

oops.

hahahaha...I wish the Obama campaign or his folks would look at the Political Ticker once in a while and used there stuff....

I'm so serious. Obama and his team are too overconfident on this thing. So negligent.

If it was Hillary or McCain in the reverse role ohhh God like 3 ads would had come out already. Never mention the big inexpericed pathological liar of Ms. Waldo up there.

Does McCain-Palin have any ideas of their own?

"Google for Palin's Federal Knowledge" comes up empty.....no hits.

Try again, Sarah...

Have you noticed that John McCain looks more and more confused?

*****And we want her for VP?????? This would be a free trip to Disneyland and her and Goofy would work fine together.

Alaskan Moose in the headlights

LMAO

Obama should use this in an ad.

Oh, that's rich.

did she mention where the money went on the bridge to nowhere went? i bet you anything she didn't. transperancy my eye, liars!!

Whoops! Aww heck, what's another lie?

Also, I thought O'Bama had absolutely nothing accomplished in the way of Bi-partisanship while in Congress?

can someone show this woman the door. she put her town in 20 milion debt and can't even come up with an original thought.it must be the moose meat

LOL! Lots of catching up to do Sarah. That's a big ooops moment.

McPalin = CopyCats

Ouch....

Could the Republicans please stop stealing Obama's ideas?

Thanks.

It shows again how uninformed she is. Her candidacy is a joke.

D'oh! Somebody needs to train her better.

It is limited...

OBAMA has already done that! Does Sarah have one original idea in her head...apparently NOT!

VOTE OBAMA, the SANE choice!

Been there, done that! Yes we can!

This woman needs to shut up and go back to hunting moose!

Obama/Biden '08/'12

The pain from Spain rains mainly on McCain!

Once again, Moose girl strikes with her dumb insanity.

The only thing left to be decided in this election is which lie about "change", which brand of poison to pour down the throats of the American populace. Vote GREEN.

THIS WOMAN BECOMES MORE OF A JOKE EVERYDAY!

WHAT A PATHETIC PHONY!

Biden is going to chew her up and spit her out in the debates.
