CNN

[...] advocate and a friend. And I want to be in the White House for them." I got these quotes from CNN. Look, I am not quick to call anyone a flip flopper, because I understand as time goes on and you [...]

Sarah Plain who are you???

I'm sure they will say anything to win this election. She seems to justify everything based on her personal preferences rather than universal ethics.

Palin is not a feminist; pro women she is not. She states she doesn't like labels but she doesn't mind labeling others. This is just more of the hypocracy of the divisive faction of our party whose reign is rapidly ending. We have heard about Joe the plumber , ED the dairyman, Rose the teacher ,Fred the fireman and others which shows just how uninformed and out of touch she is. Not any of these people's income approach 250,00.00 annually. She might as well add Little Miss Muffet, Little Jack Horner and Tinkerbell to this fairytale.

Gov Palin has taken womens movement backards. Her and all the other "June Cleaver's" out there don't mind letting a man define them

Palin's wants to be more than vice president; she wants legislative power. Sarah Palin would be more dangerous than Cheney as vice president because she’s corrupt and doesn’t know what she is doing. Sarah has a lawsuit AGAINST FURTHER PROTECTION OF POLAR BEARS so as not to hinder oil drilling in Alaska's ice-filled waters

A feminist who charged women for rape kits in a state where the violent crimes against women are double the national average? Doesn't sounds like much of a feminist to me?

Like Trollmaster said, someone like Palin who is against abortion in cases of rape or incest is not "for women's rights." Palin is an utter tool.

I am a female too and I find it disturbing that she brings her kids to work with her, how long has she been doing this! If I bring my kids to work I may be unemployed for it.

Guida, your comment sadly speaks for itself. To answer your question, it was 1984. Where were you then?

Go ahead though. Vote for the lying, unlabelable labeler. I believe it's called a "wasted vote".

Everyone needs to read up on her: anti-abortionist (regardless of circumstances), anti-birthcontrol (even for married couples), anti-sex education in public schools (funded by taxpayer money), promotes abstinence only sex-education, creationism over science (and I also consider myself a Christian, and science is real), required women in her home town to pay for their own rape kits while she was mayor...
The list is long.

This woman has nothing in common with me and I don't consider her "my friend".

I say let them test him ! His ready. From day one, bring them on !!! Joe the senator was just esposing Obama's management style that all Americans should be proactive and do not thinkthat it is over on the 4th.
In order to rebuild the USA everybody is important and should continue to stay on the alert to fix the mess throughout the administrations term. Simple and clear and we got the message !!! Ready to GO.

Q. When in the history of our country we had a woman fit, gutsy, smart and dressing well running for the vice presidency of our nation?
A. In 1984. Geraldine Ferraro

It is so ridiculous. She is the master in labeling as we all know... maverick, pro-America and all the lables she gave to Senator Obama. She is a disgrace to the entire country. I don't understand how anyone could vote for Senator McCain with Governor Palin as VP.

Obama/Biden 08... can't wait!

The world is laughing at you America! Get your act together and vote for the best candidate for the job ... not someone who thinks she's a feminist for a minute and not another time. By the way, she's a baggage to the campaign ... admit it. Abusing Governors power by firing the Safety Commissioner and spreading the WEALTH to her kids. Oh .. how about the $150K dolled up expenses to woe Joe the Plumber who earns $250K.

The fact that she did not turn around and ask someone, ( What am I? Is what's a surprise to me. She has not a clue to what she doing. I've watch enough of this to see it's not going anywhere. After the butt kicking they are going to take on Nov 4th. She will be lucky to get away with her job back in Alaska.

The thing that frustrates me the most about this particular election is that I am a democrat in a RED state, namely Utah. So when I read articles like these I am completely outraged that anyone would vote for Palin and McCain. But of course you’ve got to have all the idiots in Utah doing what the LDS Church tells them to do and vote for the conservative ticket. Dear God, can someone please help me! I feel like I am living in the twilight zone!!! Doesn’t anyone understand that the GOP party is running this country into the ground! How hard is that to understand?

I'm still wondering why old McCaine chose her to be the VP candidate....what a joke!!!

EVERYONE PLEASE REMEMBER TO GET OUT AND VOTEEEEEEE !!!!!!!!

She can pick off a wolf from a helocopter and can bring down and field-dress a moose. Yep, I think those are just the right kind of skills to deal with Congress! Go Sarah!

McCain /Palin 08!

To the cople who say Palin is intelligent (if only we would listen to her). They have their masters and by golly they know intelligent. Sarah has a bridge-to-no- where she wants to sell you.

I am want no part of her hate, division, anti-american finger pointing, no matter how smart it sounds.

Funny how she has been so quick to unfairly label Barack Obama as a socialist and at terrorist, and so quick to label democrats or any other people who believe differently than her as anti-american but she deflects any labels for herself and says "that's what annoys" Americans. So why does she continue to spew out that garbage to try to get votes?

Ask he if she is a socialist since she distributes oil money around alaska ?!

feminist? Sorry guys, she has no idea what that means.

Alaska has one of the worst eductation systems in the country.

I know everyone is getting tense with the election, but please keep your comments relevant. Namecalling is going to make us (dems.) just like they are. Don't forget, we're elitists. We know better.

Someone please ask Governor Palin to stop wearing the polar bear pin! She is the last person who should wear anything do to with the polar bear. She couldn't care less about these beautiful animals – only oil and filling her pockets! Sarah Palin, stop wearing the polar bear pin!

Palin can't decide who she is her handlers keep getting her to change and when they are done, she may not even be consider a woman anymore!

The vice president has nothing to do with the Whitehouse. This woman is power drunk. Or drunk.

We will not be watching CN any longer it is clear you have became one sided and Drew owes Governor Palin more than excuses! This is sorry behavier and this is the behavier that comes from MSNBC!

All McCain and Palin do is bring out the worst qualities in people.

this sara palin has a very limited vocablary and she is naturaly dumb. even if the question is Governor ! which is your favorite snack? she will be quick to say that i have enough excutive experience than BRACK OBAMA.AND I AM AN ENERGY EXPERT, I ALWAYS EAT SNACKS THAT CAN GIVE ME ENERGY INDEPENDENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Palin should be rocking the cradle not trying to rock the world. Go home and be a mother. I think your kids need you, not us. And I'm not even American, yet you scare a lot of us here in Canada.

all she does is tap dance and she isn't a very good dancer.

This woman don't make sense when she speaks No Mcain No Palin

She is such a joke!

John McCain & Sarah Palin are not trustworthy just like President Bush & Vice President Cheney.

Sarsh Palin used campaign contributions — part of it government campaign funding — to buy $150,000 of designer fashions and baby clothes at New York's fanciest department stores — Neiman Marcus ($75,062.63 in one shopping spree), Saks Fifth Avenue ($49,425.74), and Bloomingdales (a mere $5,102.71). That doesn't count the $4,716.49 she spent on hair and makeup in September alone. Baby Trig got a mere $295.00 at Pacifier and Steiniauf and Stroller, Inc.

We DON'T want her as VP otherwise she would continue to have wild shopping spree with OUR taxpayers money. She is NUTS.

Palin doesn't believe in labels? I was under the impresson that she got a lot of labels for $150,000. Maybe the problem is that she covets the wrong labels.

i doubt even whether palin went to any school, she cant even answer a very straight question of any nature without attacking obama. how pathetic is that?

John McCain & Sarah Palin are not trustworthy just like President Bush & Vice President Cheney.

Feminist or not, she is going to be a loser come November 4th.

She doesn't believe in labeling things? You mean like the Real America and Anti-America? Oh wait...

Mc Cain/Palin rules

i dont believe this story of a woman attacked is genuine, it is a smoke screen. shaun Hanity wants wants to turn the page!!!!!!!! he is loosing

I'm not a socialists I'm just anti-facism.

Obama/Biden 08

To Charlie Bradley, We can only hope. I'm amazed that she has made it this far without getting caught up. I for one will move my family to Canada if that woman is elected.

If this winking flirt with troglodyte politics ever wins national office, it'll set feminism back fifty years.

if you talk like a moose, walk like moose, eat like moose, sound like moose, stay with the moose then you are a moose.paylin is a moose

She's right. She just uses stereotypes that's all.

It's amazing. The same GOP crowd that did McCain in 2000, convinced him he needed Palin on his ticket in 2008. Wow! They did him in twice.

IF YOU WALK LIKE MOOSE, SOUND LIKE MOOSE,PLAY LIKE MOOSE THEN YOU ARE A MOOSE. SO PALIN IS A MOOSE

Palin is a hypocrite. She says one thing 2day but does another 2moro. She cud say or do anything just 2 get a vote. Unfortunately, u've cost Mcsame d election! Up Obama-Biden.

i dont know how DUMB Americans electorates are? but i sure know that by 4th of november, if Ms Palin becomes your VP-with a step away from the presidency through the vote casted by the people, then i tell you one thing- AMERICA WILL CEASE TO BE THE LEADER OF THE WORLD- becuase the world will openly see how DUMB America is by electing a Dumb VP and a president who thinks that being a Maverick is about being a POW. for all i care, POW's are always ashamed of themselves but Mc Cain convinced Americans to be proud of him for being captured by Vietrnamese soldiers. so if we are to be proud of him, for wasting America's war plane through his SILLY MISTAKES, THEN what happens to the people that really fought the battle and died. Mccain give me a break and stop trying to fullfill an ambition-for LEADERSHIP IS NOT FANTASY AS YOU SEE IT, IT IS MORE THAN THAT. AT 72 YRS YOU MIGHT BE ENTERING INTO AN EARLY ALZHEIMER, YET YOU WANT TO LEAD THE GREATEST NATION ON EARTH WITH A DUMB SPARE TYRE (PALIN) .

any one else nervous that the republicans are going to steal the election again? there is so much sketchy stuff going on. i think we all need to seriously commit to fighting back if mcCain "wins". there's no way it woul dbe legitimate. we have to fight this election fraud and take it very seriously or we have truly lost America.

I wonder why CNN having opened up for comment regarding the woman claiming to have been attached in Pittsburgh by a black man becasue they know it is a lie.

She doesn't want to label herself, fine. I'll do it for her. She's an idiot. I really didn't it was possible for someone to have less brains than W. Her answers to serious questions are rambling and incoherent. You don't need a Master's degree to see that she's NOT qualified for the job. You just need to be a greedy, power hungry, trickle down economics, tax cutting blinder wearing Republican. However, I have to say, I'm glad McCain picked her, but then it wouldn't have mattered. Obama is on the right side of history and will change this country and the world, for the better. Socialist, he is not. BTW, Canada has universal health care, with a capitalist economy and they've had budgetary surpluses for the past 10 years, while fighting the Taliban in Afghanistan. Republicans are trying to protect their corporate friends, the insurance companies, defense contractors and Haliburton (Dick Cheney's company)...or don't you recall the billions in untendered contracts. That's corporate socialism, to fight an illegal war. Republicans should be ashamed of themselves. I'm glad its finally coming to an end.

Ask her a third time! I'll take the 2/3 answer!

Palin labels everyone and everything in her life and her surroundings, but she doesn't want to label herself. Why? Because that would pin her down to being one-faced, and if she did that, she'd be caught in her own web.

As a Republican, the whole ticket sickens me. The shrinking McCain Reps want so badly to find something wrong with Obama that they have to reach into the myth bag and spread it around. But it's not the truth and many of us are so totally turned off by this behavior that we're willing to vote for Obama just to get rid of these fear mongering Reps. These people are the same ones who convinced the country that Iraq had WMDs.. how does anyone believe them? Colin Powell certainly doesn't!

Well I thought she liked labels. Last week she called me anti-American because I don't live in a small town. And her running mates brother called me a communist because I live in Northern Virginia. And she's calling the democratic presidential candidate a socialist every day. It seems to me that Mrs. Palin can be labeled as a LIAR!!!

She believes in equal rights and women's rights? How funny!!! She is neither my friend nor advocate. How can she stand up for me, when she doesn't know what she believes in????
Sarah, get a grip on reality and go back to Alaska!!!

Looking foward to her next interview when she's back to being a feminist again.

I am from Pittsburgh and I am very up set that the McCain volunter is claiming a black man attached her with a knife and a prodomiary white area of Pittsburgh. This woman is lieing to try to start a race war in my home town. I can not wait until the police look over the video from the ATM and find out this lady is lieing for McCain so they can still Pennslyvania, but I got new for the McCain camp. They will not win in my state botton line. Please the McCain camp leave my State and City please. I would for the County government and we working very very hard to make sure that this state say democrated. If they knew any thing about Pittsburgh, they would know most black men in this city carry guns and fighting against each other.

She is a mother and she has a career. So, yes, to me she is a feminist..

Z Z Z Z z z z z z...

Anita Bryant and Phyliss Schlafly and a Bratz doll = Palin = homophobic, intollerant, set-back to feminism, and overly-commercial, vacuuous pop glamor .

I can see why she doesn't want to call herself a feminist. She'd look like tje huge liar she is because everyone knows she has never done anything to help women in her life. Charging for rape kits?? This woman lies all the time in front of her children. She's horrible. She's a bad role model for little girls. I know children who know more about what the VP does than she does. She has a mean heart and no matter how much it costs to try and make her look beautiful the fact will always remain that she is ugly on the inside.

Obama 08!!!

You mean a label...like Joe the Plumber?

What if there is an elitist group hiding themselves within the Democrats, whose goal is to attain a power over the proletariat (just like it worked for a while in the USSR), and to accomplish that goal they must stifle the economy (we can do that with higher corporation taxes), limit the size of the proletariat (we can increase abortion, birth control for the poor), negate the influence of religion (dispute the right of clergy to voice their views), while appeasing the proletariat by spreading the wealth (communism).

2012 ?
Are you kidding me?
All women should be proud of the Palin/MacCain ticket. When in the history of our country we had a woman fit, gutsy, smart and dressing well running for the vice presidency of our nation? Wake up ladies we now have an opportunity to understand our role in history and she is being lead by one of our hero soldiers.
You must be kidding me !
smart and dressing well dosnt mean the best or brightest ,
Male or Female!

As an Australian, I am shocked at how your nation is being divided by this election... What happened to the "United States" of America...??
Some obviously believe in ..divide and conquer......they should know that "He who throws mud loses ground" Enough of the dirty politics.

Just another foot in her mouth interview. She really needs to watch prior interviews of herself to make sure she is giving the same answers. This is a chronic issue with her. McCain claimed that Obama just tells the voters what they want to hear. Palin is the leader on that.. or maybe she's just a dimwit. She has really been an anchor for McCain and he claims she's the best VP he's seen in many years. Maybe his eyesight is going as well. I can't even listen to her anymore. I find myself running for the remote everytime CNN covers another one of her campaign speaches. Getting to be the same way with McCain. If I here 'Joe The Plumber' One more time. It's like watching the same commercial all day long.

Palin a feminist?!! She's a small minded, uninformed woman of average intelligence who didn't even read the constitution and what it states about the role of the vice presidency. She certainly doesn't represent American women by wanting to take their right to choose away. I can't wait for AK to take her back & hopefully she'll fade into obscurity.

Ha.. someone just called Palin intelligent in a comment. I find that funny. Intelligent people know when they are not ready to have the most powerful job in the United States. I say this with all seriousness, Palin is a joke. She abused her power as Governor, she used her power to get her children free trips and for them to stay at fancy hotels. She is just like a washington insider but is far enough away that it seems so "quaint." Im a way I hope she does run later on, because she will be very easy to beat!

How is she a "typical" American? I'm sorry, but the typical American woman right now does not have 150K to spend on her wardrobe. She's too busy trying to make her mortage payment (if her house hasn't been foreclosed already), put food on the table, gas in her car, and afford college for her kids.

And a master's degree doesn't = intelligence. Bush went to Yale, look at him. 'Nuff said.

She is really scary in that same interview with Brian Williams he asked her if she thought if someone bombed an abortion clinic would it be an act of domestic terroist? She said Ayers bombed innocent people and when asked again if bombing an abortion clinic was domestic terroist. She said it wasn't a terroist act. I guess she feels that people at the abortion clinic aren't innocent people.

I been listening to Sarah Palin and I was shocked. She is full of negativity and hatred and than what she did with the cop. Now if anyone within the right mind will listen to her and examined her act of firing the cop would make sense. It shows that how much hate she has when things doesn’t go her way. On top of it when I listen to news or read different website, it is always how she wants to run the campaign and how they are forcing McCain to do the thing their way. Is she running for the president? Is she running this campaign? Do we want to give her authority to our Nuclear Weapons so she can nuke rest of the world if things don’t go her way? I can see another Dick Chanie.

After reading the blogs during the Primariea and the general election it is very clear that most of the Obama backers are HATERS OF ANYONE WHO DOESN'T BACK OBAMA. They called Clinton backers every name in the book and are now doing the same with McCain/Palin. If you thought there was Political animosity in this country during the Clinton and Bush years you ain't seen anything yet. These rabid people sound like a bunch of 2nd graders on the playground very little discussion just name calling.

Folks should have the right to change their mind. We all do from time to time. She might have seen the same question the same time as somehow intending to be hostile. Nobody's perfect.

With that said-

Palin and McCain are not what this country needs-

Yeah...just keep talking Sarah. Talk Obama right in the Whitehouse!!!

Someone from McCain's camp must have told her, don't say that you're a feminist anymore. Puppet comes to mind.

Sarah Palin you suck, telling people Obama is not qualified for president, but you are ofcourse should something happen to McShame? You are really nuts.

What I don't like in american elections is when religious groups like Jews or katholics tell people how to vote, you don't find that only in america and that is shamefull.

Obama / Biden 08

you can put prada on a redneck and it's still a redneck.

of course she's no feminist...i dont believe she even knows what it means...or she would not have accepted a token VP appointment based solely on gender. her narcissim and ego got in the way..she is so unqualified it's pathetic. she is a biblethumper's dream and a mockery to women.

I AM ANGRY. I AM SO ANGRY.

THIS ELECTION HAS BROUGHT OUT THE BEST, AND THE MOST DISGUSTING PARTS OF OUR NATION.

ALL THESE PEOPLE CLAIMING TO BE "NOT PREJUDICE" COMING OUT AND SAYING THIS IS A "WHITE CHRISTIAN NATION" CALLING OBAMA A TERRORIST, MUSLIM, AND ANTI-AMERICAN?

SUDDENLY, ANYONE WHO'S NOT WHITE IS NOW CONSIDERED ANTI-AMERICAN?

I AM ASHAMED OF ALL THE PEOPLE FALLING FOR THE SCARE TACTICS OF MCCAIN/PALIN.

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY ADULT LIFETIME, I AM UTTERLY SHOCKED ASHAMED OF THOSE IN THIS NATION WHO THINK THEY ARE STILL LIVING IN THE 1950'S. TIMES HAVE CHANGED–GET WITH IT!

CHANGE. OBAMA '08. CLEAR CHOICE, ONLY CHOICE.

Under no circumstances, A.K.A No way in hell, would I ever want such an ignorant woman making decisions that affect the US.
She has a lot of nerve....and that is not said in a positive way. She may be a fellow member of my sex, but she is not the kind of person I would want to know ,just something about her....smarmy?hypocritical? two-faced? someone throw me a decent adjective here.....
Intelligent women (and others) can see through her BS.

She had on some cool red hooker heels, but doesn't mean I'm gonna vote for her....

By supporting women does that mean being anti-choice?

I'm actually scared of what this woman will do later in the first week of November after she isn't elected VP. Somebody better lock up her guns that day cause this woman SMACKS of sore loser and going postal!!!

flop..flop
this isn't over yet

Obama/Biden 08
Dick Lugar (R) for Secretary of State

This woman is a complete airhead! The lights are on, but nobody's home!

Read the words of Huckabee:

"Republicans will make a fundamental if not fatal mistake if they seek to win the election by demonizing Barack Obama," Huckabee told reporters in Tokyo, according to a report by Agence France-Presse.
Huckabee praised the country for getting "to a point where we did not see his color but we truly saw his charisma, his message and what he brought to the campaign trail."
"When people are really hurting — and they are right now — they're not looking at a person's race," he added.

Then, google PNAC before allowing McCain/Palin to deceive you into voting for them.

Obama/Biden 08

How about the label: "Stupid"

Hockey mom is not a label?

Women do have the right to choose. They can choose to abstain from sex. After intercourse, they lost their choice of the consequence. Abortion is murder. Especially the late term abortions that Oboma supports.

She thinks that a woman who's raped should be forced to give birth to her rapist's child. That's no feminist. That's someone who has no business in government.

and another thing...i'm not buying this story about this woman who says that she was mugged by an Obama supporter.

the B is backwards on her face...

how do we not know if it were a Bob Barr supporter?

that scratch on her face would have been a laceration, because her struggling would have made him cut her deeper.

why did she refuse medical treatment? if this was a mugger with a filthy knife i would want to be checked out by a doctor.

if she was at the ATM why didn't the ATM camera catch the footage?

she says she had a friend with her...why didn't the friend help?

this lady is a fraud!!!!!!

FAUX news is having a field day with this story, and when the truth comes out that this woman was NOT attacked by an Obama supporter...Faux will continue to make this lie turn into the truth for their brainwashed viewers.

and for all you McCain supporters in here....NO MORE!!!! if you dont like what people are commenting on in here...go to Faux's website.

Americans are awakening from their 8 year comas, and we dont need you dopes in here trying to put people back to sleep

WAKE UP AMERICA...FIGHT THE LIES!...FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT!

Obama/Biden 08

So she won't be using the socialist label anymore?

George.....if you move to russia, just be sure its out of view of the Palin household. I bet when she's at home, she's worse than a Jehova's Witness

How much more can the public take? Palin is ridiculous and she makes women look real bad!

The terrified hysteria this woman causes among some of the Obama supporters is just laughable. Of course, it depends on how you define a feminist; she is by some definitions (like the one given earlier), but not by a Gloria Steinem definition.

If she become vice president, I have a few suggestions for her press secretary: Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, or Joe the Plumber. Any of them would be fun.

If Sarah Palin is the best America can come up with then we are in serious trouble. She has the same fundamental misunderstandings of our government that Mr. Bush does. Here's a question I would like to see her answer without her Cliff Notes: What is more important in America: Freedom or safety?

THANK GOD she is going back home tomorrow to give her deposition in the Troupergate scandal. I hope the investigation moves FAST and that by November 1, she will either be disqualified legally, or arrested for her misdeeds.

The American people wil get a reprieve from this woman who can't string together one coherent thought. I would compare her to Rose Nylund but I don't want to insult the Golden Girls, or Betty White.

What has not already been said that could possibly be added now? Sarah Palin is absolutely wrong for this country as a whole. She only represents a small, bigoted, violent and anti-American portion of the country that wishes to force its views on others. Her answers are not formulated to give you nay insight into her politics, because to do so would be to show just how little she has to offer.

Republican supporters are among the most rabid in the world, and will toe the party line no matter who is put on the ticket. You could just have easily put a stale tuna fish sandwich on the ticket as McCain's veep and they would come up with a thousand and one reasons as to why that sandwich would be the ideal candidate. It's disgusting, and shows just how little is actually going on in the head of your average Republican.

But that is why the intellectually stunted vote for the GOP time and time again – they feel excluded from the Democratic party, since that is where your educators, scientists, and other people of actual worth dedicate their vote. They would rather wallow in their own ignorance and vote mindlessly for a party that claims to understand them, rather than improve themselves and better the world with a more centrist philosophy.

Sarah Palin represents that group of people – the less-than-spectacular America that struggles to make its voice heard, even when it is painfully obvious that no one of any real worth cares about what they think.

Let me get this straight, the 'Maverick', 'Hockey Mom', 'Joe-Six-Pack' candidate doesn't want to label herself. Does anybody else see a problem here?

No Way.
No How.
No Palin.

Women for Obama/Biden

This lady career is over after this campaign. She will be the laughing stock of all Govenors in america. the People of Alaska will IMPEACH her seeing her for the fool she really is.

Senator John McCain need to tell all of those who contributed to his Campaign that he mess up by selecting Gov. Sarah Palin..

You know how you feel if you took a women on a date and bought her nice things and dated for long time and thought you was getting something once you get her home. Once home you find out she is really a he and you got nothing...... Well here's Sarah.. She the nothing and guess what she cost you the election Johnny boy..

She'll say whatever she has to. That much is clear.

So typical. Change your opinion depending on whom you're speaking with. How's about standing up for your beliefs chickie?

Never met a 150,000 dollar feminist who fires people for no apparent reason and lies about it. A feminist who hides the FACT that her daughter had a child and she is pawing it off as her own. A feminist who cannot control her own kids, but loves to hunt animals from aircraft. She may not be afeminist, but there are alot of things wrong with Sarah.Palin!

John McCain has gone Nickelodeon on the campaign trail. Featuring characters like:
1. Sam Wurzelbacher as Joe the plumber
2. Sarah Palin as Dora the Explorer
3. Joe Lieberman as Bob the builder
4. RNC as Wonderpets

Whats gonna work, Team work

Sarah Palin resonates with most American women, because she IS like most American women-hard-working, and family-oriented. She manages a career AND a family. Isn't that what the feminist movement was REALLY about. People-stop this ridiculous business that she is not smart. Listen to her speak, for God's sake, then listen to Joe Biden. Biden does not make sense, he rants. Obama goes on and on and says NOTHING. My husband and I both hold master degrees, so we are fairly intelligent and we see McCain/Palin as genuine and intelligent and Obama/Biden as the exact opposite.

Palin doesn't want to use labels? Then what was all this talk about her being a Maverick, a Reformer, a Hockey Mom, and a Pit bull in Lipstick?

Oh that's right it was just a clever facade, she squanders money, and abuses power. In FACT! She is the poster child politician of who McCain campaign wanted to reform.

The irony of it all...

As a woman who fought hard during the 1960's and 1970's to give the likes of Sarah Palin the opportunities she enjoys today, this woman is writhing in the bottom of the snake pit, in my opinion.

She is NOT a feminist, she has no idea what a "feminist" is, she has reaped all the benefits that those women like me have worked so hard for, and she dare not compare herself to us.

How can a woman who can't even organise her family , become a VP. This is where we can see the decisions of McSame. Palin is just scary. How can American present itself to the World when McCain wins.
God forbid.

hurriCAIN Palin
You really need to seek professional help

It amazes me to see what people blame McCain for. He must be a big strong figure or els people would not continue to attack him verbally.

I wonder why the media no longer make fun of her.... she is giving more interviews, but she is still mumbling around the answers, not really making a clear point, and in broken English. It looks that because she overcame expectations in the VP debate, she was cleared to go on record talking non-sense.... really, the only thing she knows how to do really well is to attack Obama, and she seems to enjoy it as well, but when the question is geared to subjects of substance, she is an empty suit. I am no longer amused by her stupidity... really. I now change the channel whenever I see her on the news. I really want Nov 4th to be over so we can move on with our lives, and hopefully Obama and his team will start working on putting our country back on the right path.

Rose Black; S Palin is sooooooooooo much more qualified that B Hussin Obama. He only has community organization under his belt. SPalin is Governor og Alaska and prior to that, other qualifiying positions which Obbama does not have. You have to be inteligent to do that. I guess that leaves you know who out. If and when he is tested as his runing vp Bidin states he will, perhaps Obama will get us all organized to help him make a decision for We The People of this Great nation. We need Obama's backgrouhnd checked out, what his grads were and ext, My gosh people the presidency is not a Walmart job.

I can't believe there are people out there that like this women! She is such a fake person! what happens if she were to become president? That is a very scary thought!

So denying women the right to choose isn't denying them rights?

And did she really say people don't like hearing places, people, backgrounds, labeled different? That's what her ENTIRE campaign has been about! Obama, "Pro-America", COME ON!

These two clowns are contradicting themselves left right and centre. And then they have the gall to go and say things like this, and think the American people are stupid enough to fall for it. Prove them wrong, deny them the chance to screw the country for another 4 years!

To: P Brown – Football mom, career woman, etc,

All of that BS is just a way to keep Obama from becoming president. If there were any truth to any of that, it would be used. You can bet your life on that.

Years ago, they used guns, water hoses and all kinds of violent attacks to avoid a person of color gaining equal rights. Now, because there are so many protection laws along with the fact that people aren't afraid to fight back, they use lies to keep the division going.

Obama/Biden 08

Sara Palin doesn't even know what an elitist is; when she's sitting next to one in an interview.(john McCain)

why cant she do an interview without her John???

her husband gives me the creeps....there's something shady in his eyes.

SHELL 1313, I'm surprised they posted your metaphorical allegory.

They don't post hardly any of my comments, mostly because I allude to CNN's being a covert Republican propaganda mouthpiece.

When McSame decides to do a postmortem after the Obama victory, he will see that his biggest problem is having a consistent theme. McSame we are not stupid. Everyday with you, there is a new drama, a new lie, a new claim, a new makeover, a new stunt, a new anything goes. I'm so tried of your BS. I just want a new president and you are not it. If I could describe your campaign in terms of a movie, I would call it "The Horror Show" unsuitable for anybody to see.

Sarah, I can think of some labels for you:
-Unethical
-Liar
-Idiot
-Hypocrite
-Imbecile
-Crook
-Dishonest
-Not honorable
-Dangerous

Obama/Biden '08

Does this woman's children go to school? The furture son-n-law dropped out to go to work, her daughter's not in school? maybe she should try becomming a roll model before she get's confused about wether she's a feminist or not

She flip-flops like a fish out of water.

So, let us believe that someone who does not believe in abortion or entirely agree with our views cannot be an advocate of women's rights. I am so impressed with the brain power that flows through this blog.

@ P Brown – Obama was born in the state of Hawaii, take a few minutes to educate yourself before you make stupid comments questioning where he was born. Least you want to make yourself look as ignorant as Sarah Palin.

Hey Theresa...I sure your smart mouthed power abusing idol from Alaska has room in her igloo for you too in 12 more days!! Are you also a "good" Christian who is pro choice yet ALL for the killing in Iraq and capital punishment? I will pray for you! Thank God we will not have to hear about her in 12 more days!

Felly...don't you remember, she's a pit bull with lipstick. The only difference between Sarah Palin and a pit bull is one eats Kibbles N Bits and one eats moose.

I agree, she doesn't know what feminist means. One thing I know, she has made the biggest fool out of herself by accepting that nomination for VP, she should have said, " I am not ready", THANKS, BUT NO THANKS.

This is a woman who allows the campaign and NBC to use her short skirt and legs as the focal point during the Brian Williams interview. We all know they are playing to Joe Six Gun. She is an insult and no way representative or a model for this Ph.D, mother and grandmother. Thank goodness most of the idiots who bought her routine have woke up.

She is the most frightening thing since Hitler!

I'm voting for THAT ONE!!!!

Sarah Palin is an idiot!! She doesnot represent THIS woman!

Sarah Palin is a clinic blocker. Stood in front of Palmer AK's hospital and prevented women from getting health care. She goes to a wacko church that is frequented by "Pastor Muthee" a self proclaimed witch hunter who "Prayed her into office"

If the normal people that don't reside in Alaska can't see what a sham she is, then I guess we get what we deserve.

This Alaskan is OBAMA OBAMA OBAMA!

"I'm not going label myself feminist ..."

2 paragraphs later...

"I'm a feminist who believes in equal rights..."

LMAO...What a joke this ticket is!

This woman is a NUT JOB. I agree with "She refused to admit that bombing an abortion clininc is terrorism"

Terrorism to me, is someone or something which threatens our national security by undermining the laws of the land and abuse of power. She should re-imburse EVER single contributor to the McCain Campaign because of her using THOSE funds for her own personal wardrobe. I don't give a spit if she DID wear it on some cockamamie TV show or at some cockamamie campaign stop. That money was supposed to go towards GETTING Sen. McCain elected, not to cover up her rather broad backside. And Terrorists are those who take taxpayers money, to pay for personal trips for her children. Tell me how does "Taking the kids to watch Daddy in a dog race" equate to government business? it doesn't. It's not just the people of Alaska she took tax dollars from, its MINE and YOUR tax dollars she has used for her own personal gains.

You don't have to use a gun or a bomb to be a terrorist. Sarah Palin, YOU are a terrorist!!

Guida Curtis:

Yes, she is fit, gutsy and dressed well, but the smart part of your statement just doesn't fit Palin. I think that you, my dear, are the one who needs to wake up.

The woman is crazy, and she is throwing John MCbush under his own Bus. Obama -Biden 08-12'

hurriCAIN PALIN, you're off your meds again aren't you?

Well, spending $150000 on cloths for Silly Sarah just proves that you can put lipstick on a pig!

The republicans can dress and act like "real" people but, they are deceiving elitists.

No matter what this woman does, republicans think it's cute. I have never in my life time seen people so afraid of electing a man of color until they are willing to take a chance on an uneducated airhead female like Sarah Palin.

My son said to me, if I say something that is true but damaging concerning Obama or the other 'liberal' Democrats, it would not get published on a CNN blog, so why bother. If I get it published by Fox News, none of you would read it anyway. Many of you have closed minds to any view that does not agree with your own.

Take away the "L" for liberal in her name and what do you get?
"PAIN"

Palin is a pain in the Arse and she is a pain in the side of all decent American, intelligent and sensient beings, of which she is not one.

A dolt, a cold blooded, ruthless, egomaniac with the grandiosity of a dictator or a lunatic with the mania of uncontrolled bipolar or schizophrenic disorders, the woman lacks moral fiber and is unethical, dishonest, a thief and pathological liar, a cheater on her husband and with others, an abuser of Gov't position power, a cruel murderer of helpless wildlife, a destroyer of the Alaskan wilderness and the Polar bears and their habitat. She is demented, stupid, cheap, twisted, ignorant, uneducated, and a piece of rotten Trailer Park trash like her kids with strange trailer park names and free clothing and hotel stays and travel on the Alaskan taxpayers' dime and on the Republican campaign's publically funded dime. She is a limelight hogging moron and should be in the position of the wolves and the moose and bears she slaughters daily. Now she is getting her returns. Ha Ha Ha we are all LAUGHING AT HER, certainly NOT WITH HER.

Theresa...go over to MSNBC...tout your Republican bias there...give it a rest...12 days and you can crawl back under the rock you've been hiding under for the last eight years.

Sarah Palin is a theo-facist who tries to ban books and persecutes people who she doesn't like.

Sarah Palin is a bald-faced liar, she tells lies like a mentally ill person, like a sociopath.

Imagine the murderous tyrant she could become as president.

Sen. McCain can you please give back the $50 that I donated for your campaign. I thought it will be used for good things. Why are you paying for the clothes of Palin and family. Is that your deal with Palin. Be my running mate and you will get signature clothes for you and your family. DISGUSTING!!!

Obama/Biden 08!!

"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian, because I'm a MAVERICK."

Sarah Palin is a theo-facist.

Just giving her the power of a mayor in a small time corrupted her to the point where she attempted to ban books that didn't go along with her religion from a library, and attempted to fire the librarian who declined to remove the books.

Think how corrupted she would become as president.

Someone should tell her that the Vice President doesn't get to live in the White House.

My friends, we have 12 days to the election and Palin is the only candidate yet to release her medical records.

And I approve this message.

"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian," she responded. "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "

WHAT!!
She did this with the whole 'real America' stuff!
Its okay to dish it but not to take it?

Please. Just go away!

I am soo proud of you for your comments, P Brown – Football mom, career woman, etc

P Brown – do some thinking and some research for yourself. Okay, let me help you, go to factcheck.org or snopes.com and find out the truth about Sen. Obama's birth certificate. In fact, during the primaries, a woman was trying to dig up dirt on this very subject. Guess what she found? A birth announcement in the newspaper in Honolulu, Hawaii about the birth of Barack Obama! He is definitely a citizen, so tell your GOP machine to stop spoon-feeding you lies.

Can the GOP honestly believe this person is suited for the position of VP (and God forbid President if McCain buys the farm)? Her answers change depending on A) who's asking the question let along B) what the climate and conditions are.
She was FOR the Bridge to Nowhere before she was AGAINST it
She was a Walmart-shopping Hockey Mom BEFORE her spree along 5th Avenue (funded in part by hard-working Americans who wanted to believe their donations were for something more than designer bags for the kids).
I won't vote for you and McCain but I'd sure respect your campaign if you took a stand and defended it instead of the flip-flopping and viciousness you're so hell-bent on.

Ok so what if Palin flip flop. McCain is also a flip fopper. They are teamates right?

If Palin is so much against earmarks, why doesn't she say she will give back the money that Alaska is due to get NEXT year as the bridge to nowhere is nomore?

Does her husband have a JOB???

Who wants a man who doesn't work?

Do her children go to school??

Wouldn't she want to make sure they didn't follow in her uneducated footsteps? Put those kids in school and stop dragging them around to your K K K hatefests!

SHELLI1313 : You and all athe rest of the feminsit women would not reconize a real woman as you have proven with your slurs against S Palin. She represents the women of America that stand up for what is rught and honorable. If all of you were not so jealous of he "butt" as you put it SHELLI1313 you may be able to understnad the message she is tryin g to give all you. It appeasr that some women are very insecure in their role as a woman and fight for their insecuritis so hard they only show how insecure the really are. Take some lessons for the real woman our next Rup. VP. Sahar Palin

NEWS FLASH 10 PM NEWS IN MONTANA

OBAMA NOW LEADS MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA AHEAD BY SEVERAL POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BIG SKY COUNTRY TURNING BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I sure don't think she is a feminist. Over turn Roe vs. Wade??? Take away a woman's right to choose??? All I see in Palin is an opportunist. McCain was stupid to have chosen her. (0r let the RNC choose her.) Either way, I hope and pray she never gets anywhere near the White House. By the way Gov. Palin, the VP doesn't get to live in the White House. McCain should watch his back...

I AM SO SICK OF PEOPLE VOTING FOR HER CAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN!
H E L L O?! Woman or not she is a I D I O T! and anyone who votes for her to be "feminist" should move to Canada. McCain is counting on you to vote blindly, I say no way run your negative ads because you're desperate! It's all you got besides being the traditional white male, with a doting BIMBO running beside you and a "blond" BIMBO behind you.

ok I am not going to bash Palin but I think every canidate is fully Vetted and we know there views and opinions. Lets go vote and make history.

After labeling areas pro-America, implying the others aren't, NOW she says labels are bad?

*facepalm*

This Palin Woman is not A Feminist, nor a Reformer!!! She haven,t got a Clue of who she really is!!.. I betcha ,Doggone it... Send her back to the Bridge to Nowhere!!!! Tell her she can keep all her expensive clothes bought with Joe the Plumber and Joe Six Pack Donation money that was stolen for her and her family!!! This is just another top of another Iceberg..

These erratic comments from the McCain/Palin 'mavericks' are causing people to turn to Obama/Biden-

NEWS FLASH
IT WAS JUST ON LOCAL MONTANA 10 PM NEWS

OBAMA LEADS MCCAIN

BIG SKY COUNTRY TURNING BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Its a Sly question, aimed to slander and mislead Mrs.Palin's Character. Where are the questions the Democrats say they want answered? Everyone can tell the rudness of all their interviews. What the Democrats are not figuring on, is that alot of Americans will begin to pull their investments out , rather than let that Shyster control their monies. As for me I'm closing up shop if that Shyster wins. And I'm sure that goes for alot of Americans. There's more than one way to skin a cat.

She's NOT A FEMINIST! And NEVER will be while holding fast to the agenda that she's laid out on the campaign trail. She's anti-feminist if anything.

P Brown – Football mom, career woman, etc... October 23rd, 2008 11:34 pm ET

Why not investigate Obama's background – birth certificate, lawsuit regarding eligibility to be the president, college transcripts, thesis, etc….where are these things? We AMERICANS apply for jobs, we go through a throughout background check….why does Barack get special treatment? Humm……

Are you implying that Obama is not or may not be an American? If I am not mistaken McCain was born somewhere in South or Central America. The Constitution states that you must be BORN IN THE UNITED STATES TO BE PRESIDENT. Who is getting the special treatment now?

She was a feminist when Couric asked that question but when Williams ask the question she says "I'm not gonna label myself anything” …What happened to Maverick, Hockey Mom, Pit Bull with lipstick just to name a few labels… How bout the labels your giving others. Socialist, Terrorist, Joe sixpack....bla bla blab!!!

Palin please just go away, every time you open your mouth something stupid comes out!

Doesn't like labels???? Terrorist? Socialist?Pro American?
And now...designer labels!
Let me add one- useless

I think she would have to understand the REAL meaning of feminist for her to know how to answer the question. I am willing to bet she is unclear about her answer here because she is clueless about femenists role in society. It's like Fareed Zakaria said a while back..."She doesn't really understand the question." Don't ask her things that are based on common knowledge material like which newspaper she reads or which judicial decision she doesn't agree with or whether she is a feminist or not. Because, she is not interested in common knowledge stuff that any 3rd grader from Gladyswood Elementary would know. But she gives a mean campaign stump.

The problem with Sarah Palin is that is 'dangerously uncurious' Arian Huffington said last night. And I couldn't agree more.

she regularly slips up and shows us how she sees herself – "in the white house". i'd like someone to confront her about this. i have no doubt that she fully intends to be president. if that's the outcome, we're moving to nova scotia.

"All women should be proud of the Palin/MacCain ticket. When in the history of our country we had a woman fit, gutsy, smart and dressing well running for the vice presidency of our nation? Wake up ladies we now have an opportunity to understand our role in history and she is being lead by one of our hero soldiers."

Pardon me: what illegal drug of choice were you taking at the time you wrote that garbage? Yes, Palin dresses well and you betcha she will not give those clothes to charity. That's a cover story. Mighty expensive clothes to be giving to charity.
She is setting women back 100 years every time she speaks. I am not proud of those two bigots, McCain/Palin. It seems most women are repulsed by her and her negative rhetoric. And McCain's hero status has since diminished over the years. Now he's seen as a bitter, angry bigot who is has finally come out of the closet and showed his true colors.
I will not be voting for McCain or Palin. We will be in serious danger if that ticket wins. A win with that ticket will be every terrorist's dream.

I want to thank Gov. Palin for the laughs! Thanks for making SNL funny again and providing some great late night material.

I'm glad that she's not labeling herself. she would be lying if she were to suggest that she or her party were pro-women/feminist.the GOP used her and she allowed herself to be be used. They deserve each other.

This woman is a power-grabbing, marginally functional moron, that talks out of both sides of her mouth– just like George Bush. I mean, McClone.

is this possible....

shes doesnt know what she wants

obama/biden 08

11 more days...oh man could this be real....TOO EXCITED

Palin 2012!

If Obama becomes POTUS everyone will hate him by then!

Global depression on the way with Obama!

Sarah has been an energizing figure and force and I'm proud of her! It takes guts and smarts to stand up to the pro Obama media groups. I admire and respect her. She and McCain will make the changes America needs at this time. Only McCain Palin! No Obama Biden.

Palin would make a better president than Barack Obama. She has already proved herself. He has been present...how many times.

And the ambush interviews continue... What am I talking about? How much coverage is there of Biden? He's had several notable gaffes in the past week alone, but the MSM is only interested in trying to trip up Sarah Palin on something. Why do you Dems hate her so much? She's not more conservative than many other Republicans. Is it simply because she's a woman who is also a Republican. Did that break a taboo of yours? Why don't you just take her out back and beat the carp out of her? You know you want to. LOL! Nice caring, understanding Dems! Peace and love baby...

Palin is not feminist, she is an EXTREMIST! She does not believe in woman's right and she is so right winged that is scary. She destroyed the chance to show the world that working women can be smart and have a work/life balance. All she did is abuse her power and ran all her expenses to taxpayer in order to travel with her kids. She is a SHAME to women in America. Please ask her to return to Alaska after 11/4.

SARAH PALIN make me sick......she is nasty...lair...and we females dont want her.

I'm moving to Alaska ... and contest the next governor election.
How did she get elected??? Alaskans ... what were you thinking?

I voted for McCain/Palin 08! They are America’s only hope this election!

But, I can wait to vote for Palin in 2012 if B O wins in 08. By then Obama-hate will be as bad as Bush-hate is today!

I went through Trudeau-mania and the huge disappointment that followed his equivocating reign!

However, Obama will lead us into a global depression the likes of which we have never experienced!

Palin is more experienced than Obama and doesn’t keep putting her foot in her mouth like Biden!

And, Palin is authentic, intuitive, energetic, wise, smart, courageous, tough, a servant leader, a very quick study, (it took Obama months to learn what she has picked up in weeks), and she has a strong moral center plus American values!

Also, the "least of these" wee ones deserve protection not disposal!

I hate to hear this woman talk using words like gonna for going to and ya for you! Yak! McCain would have been better off chosing a whale or moose for a running mate! She is so uninformed and downright dumb I don't know how anyone would elect this ticket. Then again the man in the Whitehouse is just as dumb.

Honey, you don't need to label yourself anything...we'll do it for you:

LOSER. RASCIST. VACUOUS TOOL. ELITIST. SECESSIONIST.

george,
i will personally buy your ticket to russia. one way!!!!

MCCAIN-PALIN 2008

not going to label yourself? seriously maverick, reformer, hockey mom, joe six pack?

GUIDA CURTIS.........How can you possibly be proud of a woman who has already been convicted of an ethics violation, can't construct a correct sentance or answer a question from a 3rd grader correctly? She is an example of a woman who has let her mouth override her capabilities, outright lied. She is a prime example of trailer trash.

"All women should be proud of the Palin/MacCain ticket. When in the history of our country we had a woman fit, gutsy, smart and dressing well running for the vice presidency of our nation? Wake up ladies we now have an opportunity to understand our role in history and she is being lead by one of our hero soldiers."

Pardon Me: I'd like to know what drugs you were taking when you wrote this garbage. Proud of those two bigots? I don't think so. You are right – she's dressing very well and I can betcha she will not give those clothes to charity. I betcha we see her in pictures after the election, months later, with those clothes on. The charity will be her closet.
McCain might be a Navy hero but not everybody gets all gushy about that stuff. He's been commended for his service in the Navy and that's it. Just because he was captured and was a POW for five years does not make him President capable. And if he was so great at solving everything, why hasn't he done more for as long as he's been in the Senate. Things that make you go: Hmmmmmmmm!

To Guida Curtis who said we women should be proud because "When in the history of our country we had a woman fit, gutsy, smart and dressing well running for the vice presidency of our nation". Are you kidding me? Those are the characteristics of a candidate that are going to make you proud she's a woman? Fit, gutsy and dressing well? Yes, I know you said smart, but you lose points for burying it in those other three. I want a proud feminist who believes in and strives for women's equality. Not a mean spirited, say anything show piece who doesn't have to keep repeating that she is a maverick, a pitbull, a fighter, experienced, because it will be OBVIOUS.

YOU LIBERALS ARE SO JEALOUS OF SARAH PALIN. SHE IS A THREAT TO YOU OR YOU WOULD NOT FEEL THE NEED TO SLAM HER CONSTANTLY. AND CNN IS PATHETIC FOR ALLOWING DREW GRIFFIN TO COMPLETELY DISTORT AN ARTICLE ABOUT HER IN NATIONAL REVIEW WITHOUT AN APOLOGY ON AIR OR PERSONALLY TO SARAH PALIN!!!!!!!!!! HOW DARE YOU. APOLOGIZE TO SARAH PALIN NOW!!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE KEEPING YOU HONEST, CNN,
ADMIT YOU WERE GROSSLY WRONG. IT'S CALLED RESPONSIBLE JOURNALISM. FACT CHECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i can't stand her. she may represent some women, but i don't think she represents the women who have worked hard, died, or suffered to advance women forward. how can she consider herself a friend to women when she believes a rape or incest victim should bear the child of the hideous crime?

TO GUIDA CURTIS:

Thank you for your thoughtful comment. I respect your view, even though I do not share it.

Here is what women who do not agree with Palin think:

Palin is riding on the shoulders of the women who came before her whom her party has demonized for years and years.

Palin would take away a woman's right to choose what happens to her body.

Palin does not represent the vast majority of American women.

While I do not agree nor support Gov. Palin, I am glad that finally the Republicans have a woman on their ticket.

Failin Palin is the biggest butt hole in the world. She is not America friendly, nor does she care about her children's education. They are with her 90% of the time along with her non working husband. She is a lier, cheater and to top it off she is stupid. $150,000 on clothing, jewls, purses for her, her husband, and her children. Makes me sick to my stomach

how can she say she believes in equal and women's rights, when she is pro life, and trying to take the right of choice away form all women?
doesn't quite make sense...

She is scary because she is so inept she really believes she's qualified....

Labels are for the other party. Besides sounds too much like feminist, socialist, communist. Maybe she thought they were related.

She refused to say that bombing abortion clinics was terrorism. Nuff said!

If you put a lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig.

The rudeness of many Democrats and the bias favoring the Dems by the Media will be the downfall of your ticket.
After McCain is President and Palin is Vice-Prisident, many of the "CNN / MSNBC Employees & Fans" ought to take civility lessons!

Palin is not a feminist. She's not a feminist either. The only "-ist" she is, is an opportunist.

I'm with you George!! She is scary because she is so inept she really believes she's qualified....and there is a genuine nastiness about her behind that phony grin.

Sarah Palin aka carabou barbie is a disaster. She is highly unqualified to be on mccain's ticket. she actually charged rape victims for treatment expenses when she was mayor of her tiny little town.

sorry mccain ..i gotta jump on the obama bandwagon express. i voted yesterday

@ "huriCAIN Palin"...... why such hate? Why such vile? You are an example of the reason the Republicans will lose. You people don't "get" that .......hate is divisive and vile, and we, Americans reject it! Peace be with you!

Palin disdains Feminists.......but...... she has succeeded on the BACKS OF ALL THE WOMEN BEFORE HER, WHO HAVE BEEN DEMONIZED BY THE FAR-RIGHT! Hypocrite.

The FACT IS, that IF Palin was a Democrat VP candidate, the far-right-family-values-crowd would have crucified her for ABANDONING HER FAMILY!

Interesting how the far-right can be such hypocrites!

Sarah has been an energizing figure and force and I'm proud of her! It takes guts and smarts to stand up to the pro Obama media groups. I admire and respect her. She and McCain will make the changes America needs at this time. Only McCain Palin! No Obama Biden.

I can't believe anyone is taking this woman serious and even considering her for a run for the white house. OMG

OK, I've lost what little respect I had for this woman. I never know what's happening with her next. Mrs. Palin can't remember (or figure out) where she stands on basic issues, doesn't know thde job description of a V.P., allows the McCain campaign to lavish her with $150,000 worth of wardrobe while calling Obama an elitist, and then makes sure we understand that Obama "Pals around with terrorists".
What do people see in this woman?!?! And what kind of "maverick" is she anyway? I don't get it.

Throw her under the bus already!

I don't know why my comments have never been posted CNN.

Her voice and body language are not feminist to me.

Women have always been "expected" to do the same as the guys, the problem is that women get paid less to do the same thing as the guys. So Palin, where do you stand on womens rights? Yea thats right she dosn't care, she is where she wants to be. Well almost.

Pfft, she'll set back woman's rights by 20 years if she is elected, mark my words people, her entire selection is an insult to feminist everywhere.

We're not suppose to know what she thinks. She doesn't do real interviews 'cause they're full of 'gotcha questions'...like, what does the VP do?

Does Sarah Palin spend that kind of money from the government of Alaska, I wonder what the people of the state of Alaska think of her being so free with the peoples money. I think Alaska should question where the money from the sale of the airplane went and she did not return the money from the bridge to nowhere and other things. She legally steals and it is OK. If you or I steal, guess where we will go.

Someone please send this woman back to Alaska where her views and underhanded sneaky ways are apparently appreciated. She is in no way qualified to represent the lower 48!!

Its ok. Sarah Palin decided in this same interview that people who bomb abortion clinics aren't terrorists. So just remember, as long as she agrees with your ideology, its ok to blow people up... What the heck is wrong with her.

Why not investigate Obama's background – birth certificate, lawsuit regarding eligibility to be the president, college transcripts, thesis, etc....where are these things? We AMERICANS apply for jobs, we go through a throughout background check....why does Barack get special treatment? Humm......

Erratic... just like McCain

why,when interveiwing sarah palin,doesn't anyone ask her
why she kills wolves? and is she out to kill other defensless
God's creatures? you got my vote,obama!

I honestly believe that she does not know the definition of feminist.

Also on her "maybe" releasing her medical records, looks like she has something to hide, mental illness possibly?

She is an insult to women.

Obama/Biden

I have not watched CNN in 4 weeks. I know so many people tuning out because of the biased reporting. How are your ratings CNN??? To: McCain/Palin supporters, if your tired of the not stop bashing from the Left turn to FOX for the best coverage!

Okay, so maybe there is so little new "news" today that we are noticing and commenting on the minutia, but did anyone acknowledge the gargantuan polar bear pin on Sarah Palin's designer blouse today? Palin has publicly opposed the addition of the polar bear to the Endangered Species list, stating (and I'm paraphrasing here) there is no evidence linking climate change to impact on the natural world. Palin's stance as an "energy expert" on climate change warrants more attention, but the decreasing population of the polar bear has been well documented. Although it may seem minor in the grand scheme of things, Palin's pin appears to be an attempt to suggest she is an advocate of the polar bear, and perhaps the environment. I find this insulting, and I'd like to add that as a woman, I am not inspired by Palin for this and many other reasons, and I will not feel represented by her in the White House.

Fit? Gutsy? Dressing well? She may have that, but not too smart. She is being played by these politics. Its sad.

She is far from a feminist and women should be scared to see her in office.

who are some of her favorite historical feminists, at least?

Sarah Palin is destroying the future of women. This is a person that barely, just barely, graduated from college. If she were to be elected, she would be, could not avoid being, a horrendous failure. That will set women's rights back 50 years.

F A I L I N will sing any tune to take advantage of the lucky break (unlucky for McSame) she got when chosen for the McSame ticket.
She will do anything to get what she wants> Just look at "Troopergate"

Doesn't want to label herself, but she sure will label the rest of America...
She's a psycho that will put all our daughters in danger of becoming baby making Stepford wives who have no ability to think for themselves.
No thank you, no way, no McCain, NO PALIN.

ANYONE but McCain '08

It doesn't matter what answer she gives you people will find something wrong with it. Gov. Palin represents the people and you people are too stupid to realize it. She will work for us not the Washinton insiders.

To all the McCain supporters you all are just showing your poor sportman ship because he is behind.When Obama becomes Pres. and cleans up the mess in Washington you will all be thanking us for putting Obama there.You'll see

Was this story REALLY datelined "Beaver"?! Reality gets funnier every day.

Sarah Palin a feminist...........what a joke. Ask her what a feminist is. Like McCain she sways with whatever or whoever they think will give them a vote. Caribou Barbie doesn't have a clue. Send her back to Alaska where she can wave to Russia, allow coyotes to be shot from helicopters and along with her husband reinstate themselves in the Alaskan Independent Party that wants to secede from the US of A.

Enough of the hockey mom who has no clue of what a real mom is, one who has to scrimp and save, not one who bills the government for trips for her kids who weren't invited, but yet charged her state for their expenses or someone who wears clothes that cost more than most people make in three, four or five years.

And the Republicans think women will vote for her because Hillary didn't win the Dem nomination. Please.......Give us a break. Just because she wears a skirt doesn't mean we will vote for her. Reminds me of Bush Sr.......he chose Dan Quayle because he was handsome and he thought women would vote for him. Republicans have no clue as to how women vote. GREAT for Obama.

As a registered republican, I received a request to make a donation to the RNC by Sarah Palin (She probably needs more clothes). I sent the envelop back empty, as I have already voted early for Obama.

Oh, and if you think of running for some office in 2012, you WON'T have my vote.

Obama/Biden 08

Palin is just UNRELIABLE. She is inconsistant, illprepared and always has this fatuous grin which shouts out- 'Hey, I'm in the limelight, how thrilling!'.

CNN you report on stupid stuff like this and Biden is saying something stupid everyday. Is this a double standard? Where is your fair reporting? Maybe you should check Bidens medical record and see if he is mentally capable of being VP. No one in history has made as many stupid statements as Biden and your bashing Gov. Palin?

She is about as far away from being a feminist as a woman can be. Being a feminist is way more than just believing in equal pay, etc.
The important thing here, though, is that we can't really know Palin because she is constantly just saying whatever comes out of her mouth at any given time, and there isn't much consistency. Kind of like a Stepford wife with a defective part.

Do we really need any more information about Palin? We have a pretty good picture already.

CNN, you have lost all credibility in being objective during this election! Too bad for you and your crew. You can go and do something with yourselves! Or perhaps McCain and Palin will do that to you once they are elected!!!!

CNN – Are you obsessed with Caribou Barbie? “you betcha you are” She is in every other headline you write about. Talk about slanted.

Earlier you’re reporting on and aiding in her Fear Mongering tactics. The McBush/Fargo ticket is throwing the kitchen sink trying a different theme each day campaign and CNN is reporting on it like there is no other news. I guess drama queen news makes for more viewers.

Keep it positive CNN, let McCain be the grumpy old negative man.

Vote – Obama/Biden 08’

When you go out there to vote you better pay good attention and double check your vote before you summit it. In some ste if not all the republicans fix the machine up. If you vote straight democratic they fix the machine so your presidential vote go for McCain intead of Barack. So you might think you vote for Barack and the machine was fix and it goes the other way. So pay good attention to make sure your presidential vote goes to your choosing candidate. These are disgusting tactics that the republicans are using right now in some part of Texas and may be nationwide. We need fair and free election so rigging these machines is nothing but disgusting tactics. Also when you go to the polling place no political T-shirt because they will turn you away.

If Obama gets elected, four years from now when you are unemployed, pennyless, and mad at Congress; you'll owe all of us who told you idiots not to vote for him a big apology. Obama only knows how to do one thing, and that's win (steal) elections. The man would have sold his soul to be President, and once he's President, the American people will be at the mercy of the worst Congress in American history. Do you people actually think he'll ever stand up to his party much less hold anybody accountable. McCain done it with the Boeing Tanker Deal; Palin done it with the fraud and waste going on in Alaska. The American people just simply got played. Unfortuately, McCain campaign folks are simply not up to the task. They are boring and reactive, not proactive. They have not delivered the positive message and have done McCain, who is the better man and would be President, a hugh disservice. Please folks, this nation deserves better than to be suckered like this. I am an independent but know these guys records very will, don't get played be Obama's smooth talk express. Don't let this nation be at the mercy of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. If McCain loses, there is no one left to hold Congress accountable for there actions, no one to protect us from bad policies, no one to point out corruption because neither the media (to liberal) nor Obama will. We need McCain in the White House, MCCAIN IS NO GEORGE BUSH.

SARAH PALIN IS THE MATERIAL GIRL, WHO SPECULATES AND PUTS EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING INTO ONE CATEGORY. THAT MAKES HER THINK THAT SHE IS BRILLIANT. SHE MAY FOOL SOME PEOPLE. BUT, SHE DOES NOT FOOL THE MAJORITY.

CNN is the WORST News Organization EVER. One-sided – BIAS, baby, BIASED!

It's taken 20 months of not listening to our children to realize that most of your 'FACT CHECKS' aren't factual but bias against an EXPERIENCED candidate.

GONE are the 1991 Iraqi War fair reporting days. SELL OUTS to the $450M dollar presidential candidate that only has to 'talk the talk' because he's never 'walked the walk' besides as an community organizer.

THIS CRIMINAL of a Presidential candidate forced out his challengers by pulling the same dirty politics as CNN is pulling by reporting that they're the MOST RECOGNIZED NEWS ORGANIZATION..yeah, recognized for being one-sided.

Times are tough and although Obama, CNN, Nancy 'No Nuts' Pelosi, Harry 'InSearchlight of knowledge' Reid and Howard 'YEEHAW' Dean have rigged this election..the middle america that will now be ready to pay higher taxes to fund the Democratic Plan or 'TAX AND SPEND' can only PRAY that in 2012..HILLARY RUNS AGAIN and the other 17 million that didn't vote for her, does.

Why couldn't we remember that the 90's under Clinton worked..and believed just maybe, she as his partner, had something to do with the success he had..

Also – PRAY that Pelosi and Reid get FIRED by the American Voter.

ask Rush if he thinks she's a fem or not!..we all know how he feels about N.A.G.S!!!...in his mind she is wayyyy too attractive and happy to be a fem..he said so himself on Tuesday...god..the hypocratic irony just keeps coming..losers backing losers(if she endorsed Barak tomarrow , then says she didnt...i wouldnt be at all surprised)

"And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different"

****************************************************

labels such as "pal [of] terrorists," "socialist," 'wealth spender," "real America," "pro-America," "reckless," and the list goes ...

It all depends on which way the wind blowing, Palin would call herself a alien from mars if she thought it would get her elected.

Where did they find a plane with two right wings to bring this airhead to the contiguous United States

so you are not a maverick or a reformer or a hockey mom or a pitbull

I like her outfit. I bet this joe-six pack hockey mom bought it at Walmart, or some place similiarly cost effective.

Hillary Clinton is a feminist. You, lady, are no Hillary Clinton!

Where is the apology CNN for Drew Griffin lying about Gov. Palin? Drew Griffin blew it off like it was nothing. You owe Gov. Palin an apology. You have zero criedibility. I put you in the same trash can as MSM with your unfair reporting. You are the Obama network. How can you cover an election and be so unfair to McCain/Palin?

Well she had a few months of intensive coaching. Frankly the old clueless Sarah Palin was more "refreshing" than the new phony "coached" one. She was a clueless puppet before, and now she is a trained puppet.

"Country Fist" must have been on McCain's mind when he picked the "most qualified VP candidate ever" as he said.

Believe that and you voted for Bush twice and now will vote for McSame.

She is great at labels. She calls Obama all kinds of names. Socialist, terrorist, liberal tax and spender.

Maybe she just needs a few hints for her own Party candidates. How about Senile McCain, Geriatric McCain, Elitist McCain (after all, they called Obama elitist and Obama knows how many houses he owns). OK, how about Palin the simple, Palin the unethical, Palin the future Mother-in-law of a high school dropout.

See, all she needs is a few hints. Isn't this fun.

She just doesn't know when to keep her mouth shut does she?

Open mouth – insert foot............

"I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds..."

Wasn't it only last week that you labeled some parts of America as "real-America", as people you come to your rallies as "patriotic", Obama as "wealth-spender"? Is this woman drugged? She seems to be in difference states of consciousness every time she talks. She can't recall what she said in the past... VERY SCARY indeed as a VP.

She really is a piece of work. I sincerely hope the Republicans come up with a viable candidate for 2012, or we're going to be doing this all over again!

blame the adviser.....

Once McCain picked her as his running mate, those who operates his campaign are really smart to not allow her to have a press conference as expected from the person who's going to be the potential president of this great nation. They understood that she is gonna end up screwed. well, we're seen it one after the other.

Make up your mind!

Of Course, I already know the answer

No, Not Now Not Yesterday Not Tomorrow not Ever!

She could not label herself, because she would have to confess she is anti-feminists.

She is aPALINg

Palin is an idiot.

this woman is evidence that politics in the united states has finally scraped the bottom of the barrel. she expresses herself on a fourth grade level. it is obvious she merely recites talking points that have been provided to her by her handlers (and most often rather poorly). it is an insult for her to pose as a representative of intelligent, hardworking, and honest women (regardless of party affiliation). is she capable of leading this nation? please! we need more than a wink and pretty legs!john mccain robbed us of a viable choice with the selection of this fraud. was elizabeth dole unavailable?

NO PAIN-NO MC CAIN

IF THIS MC CAIN/PALIN TICKET WINS

I'M MOVING TO RUSSIA

Either she doesn't know what she believes in, or she is so morally shallow she will say whatever anyone wants to hear. Or maybe it is that she is so intellectually shallow that she really doesn't know what a feminist is, just like she doesn't know what a VP does. Her ability to so easily change directions 180 degrees makes her a perfect fit in the Weathervane McCain campaign.

Forgot to add that for someone who spent $150,000 on clothes in one month -should not be allowed to comment on anything. There are people starving, losing the homes, jobs and struggling. And this idiot stands on stage in a new expensive wardrobe telling people she is just like them. I don't think so Ms Palin. Us good christian women would have given the bulk of that money to the homeless and poor. Not another boring black suit, that looks like all your other ones, from Saks.

This woman is whatever the conservative republicans want her to be.

So not a hockey mom or maverick anymore either?

Sarah Palin is NO feminist...

she cant even make her husband stay home with the kids to ensure that they get an education..eat...get dressed, practice safe sex, and take care of the house.

Todd has no job, so why is he following his wife around like a jealous creep.

I'm a Dj and sometimes my gig takes me to other cities...i also have 4 children who attend school EVERY DAY.

When I'm gone; my husband takes care of EVERYTHING at home...I'd leave him if he has to follow me everywhere with the kids while i make a living.

Sarah Palin is a poor representation of a working mother.

Please tell this abuse of power Governor to go home. I have lost my patience with her lies, enticement of hate mongering at her rallies, and her lack of honesty and integrity. I was excited when she was chosen. But soon came the alarm. I have researched her intensely up in Alaska. This is not a lady that I would ever want in the White House.

She is not a femenist. She is a loud mouth, abrasive, qualified idot!

ALSO ....Last I checked....who shopped for Michelle?...Oh i forgot...she shops at target....where are the prioities here?

Sarah Palin is truly frightening.

She is, essentially, against women and anything they stand for.

She doesn't support a woman's right to choose. She believes that a woman who suffers a horrific crime against women should have to pull into a hospital emergency room and pay for her exam.

Go Barack Obama/Joe Biden 2008, 2012

JOE THE PLUMMER......MCCAIN THE LOOSER......PALIN THE SHOPPER......OBAMA THE PRESIDENT.........

Well, CLEARLY its the fault of the gotcha media!

How can she believe in "women's rights", but want to take away Roe v. Wade? Isn't that the basic premise?

She believes in women's rights? Is that why she is opposed to abortion even in the cases of incest or rape? Is that why she will try to undo Roe v. Wade? No thank, you Palin: you belong back in Alaska, not in the White House! Your views would set women back many, many years.

Wow! Sarah the feminist! John the liar! campaign the dishonorable!
campain staff the lobbyists! barack the president! Joe the Vuce president! I lke this! Me the voter!
Obama!Obama!Obama!

And complain about how we label every area of the country different... you mean like, "real America" and "unreal America" or "pro-American and "anti-American." Oh, I know, you know, I just hate those kinda labels gittin in the way of labeling people and such.

palin waist of time

Obviously we know where we stand at this point....No more needs to be said ....so who's fooling who?

This woman is perhaps one of the most confused, misdirected, and vitriolic figures launched into political prominence in American history. It is absolutely astounding that people are willing to acknowledge any remark she makes. I feel dirty for even having written this.

I think we should follow Senator Obama's lead and simply refuse to even make further comments on her. As a politician and potential representative of the American people, she deserves to be rendered irrelevant and forgettable.

Yeah right. You know what we are so sick of your lies. You came to the lime light saying you are a hockey mom. Hockey mom or Joe six packs can't even dream of wearing cloths worth $150,000.
So stick to your lies. I don't think Flip Flops will look good with your designer cloths.

Let me just clean up the coffee I choked on when I was thrown under the bus. Oh please. She could possibly be the first US Pres. who is a woman and her best reply now is to deny her own identity as a feminist?

Wow. Looks like Gov. Palin would rather see us all barefoot, pregnant, and back to scrubbing the cave walls for our suppers. OUCH!

Is she going to be on the Joe the Plumber reality tour?

"Nobama will need his supporters to stand with him as tough

decisions are made" said Biden, that equals – NOBAMA IS NOT

READY. democrats cant get anything registered into their kool aid

filled brains

I'm registered as an Independent (no party). As a 32-year-old single college-educated white woman who has never been married or even engaged, it has been too easy to be cynical about the future.

The media, being political as it always is—whether overtly or covertly—has made it perfectly clear that everything is insanely whacked: divorce rates, medical bills, working multiple jobs, mortgages, and raising children under the aegis of a plethora of municipal, state, and federal regulations that do not allow for parental self-determination.

I am voting for Obama because for the first time, I see myself becoming OPTIMISTIC about the future.

I’ve always had a vague feeling that it would be awfully nice to get married or form a partnership with someone special, someone with whom I could spend many more years, creating a cozy home and raising a family.

I sure as heck hope that we Americans do the smart thing and keep Palin out of Washington, DC, so that there'll be no further confusion over feminist (equal) rights and other important things such as parental self-determination in creating families, and supporting the economy Main-Street style so that all of our families, both existing and future ones, will have better chances in the future.

All women should be proud of the Palin/MacCain ticket. When in the history of our country we had a woman fit, gutsy, smart and dressing well running for the vice presidency of our nation? Wake up ladies we now have an opportunity to understand our role in history and she is being lead by one of our hero soldiers.

Please not that not all women in Alaska think Sarah Palin is qualified to be a VP. She won her republican primary because the incombent was the lowest rated worst governor Alaska has ever had.

It isn't what she labels herself that counts, it is what we label her. Let it not be 'Vice-President.'

Voted Obama '08

Well, well. I guess Brian caught Bimbo with her head bobbing the other way. How about a Sarah bobble head doll to raise funds for her wardrobe? It conveys the image AND if finances the campaign!

I believe in women's rights and I'm glad either way that women have gotten this far. I'm even happier that I can vote and have the right to choose. But I'm sorry Palin... it won't be you. If anything you are souring the image of women in politics. Please women out there don't vote for McCain/Palin just because you supported Hillary. They are nothing alike and we will have our day soon enough – but Obama is who we need for at least the next 4 years. McCain/Palin – the definition of insanity – doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. We don't WANT change. We don't HOPE for change. Change we NEED! And I'm demanding just such when I vote OBAMA/BIDEN 08!

but she will label others/

Actually, I don't know what a feminist is anymore either. If you are pro-choice, then it seems you can't – diametrically opposed – mutually exclusive- possibly be a feminist. At least that's the impression I get these days. N.O.W. is really N.O.L.W. Guess what "L" is in that acronym?

O.K. Sarah Palin is the VP pick for John McCain. So she's a feminist. I would accept Mickey Mouse as VP under John McCain, who is an American hero.

PLEASE!!! WOW! She does not want to label herself? The smart mouthed power abuser has no problem labeling everyone else!!! What a "Christian"! Thank God in 12 more days we will be sending her and her $150,000 wardrobe back to the igloo she came from!!!

Palin--"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian," she responded. "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "

Why do you label Senator Obama ........LIAR!!!

I don't know too many "feminists" that would spend $150K on clothing. She also seems to like labels when they're attached to the back of her outfits or emblazoned on her credit card receipts. Please, for the love of God and the USA, send this woman and her family packing back to Alaska. She truly scares me.

Not only is a feminist described as someone who believes in equal rights for both sexes, but can also be described as activity that promotes the rights of women and their interests. Everyone knows where she stands on THAT issue. She SHOULD be backing away from the feminist "label".... she has never been a true supporter of women's rights, and she knows it.

I will just label her a megalomaniac

I am more a FEMINIST than Sarah Palin will ever consider herself to be. Who is she kidding???

Funny how she has spent so much time labeling parts of the country "pro-America" and Labeling Obama as a "Socialist". But when asked if she is a feminist she balks that labels have been annoying Americans.

Similar to her attacks on Obama for supporting the different hometown sports teams, then doing the EXACT same thing herself. If i saw these things happening with a child, I would sit them down and explain that they need to treat others as they would like to be treated. You know, that old "Golden Rule".

If this is any indication of how she conducts herself, she has no business "Running the Senate", aka being the VP. Please, someone get us a REAL feminist so we can compare and contrast.

After 2 months of the Carl Rove school of don't tell'em anything politics. She has earned her diploma in the school of deceptive politics.

How is this news? Palin has two good qualities: looks and big talk. She's perfect for Miss Alaska or a sportscaster, because of those two qualities. Those two qualities also will win her party some votes.

Bottom line: she doesn't have the intellect, experience, or social skills to run our government.

I'm sick of this monster. So she must not want the "Maverick" label anymore, either?

Isn't pro-life oppression against women? I think it is.Pro choice gives every women to make up her own mind.I would not have an abortion but I will not speak for all women.They deserve the right to choose their own path.
Palin is not a feminist. She is an ego bound human that is out of control and very dangerous.She justifies everything she does as her"right". I wonder how McCain feels about her "taking over" from him and canpaigning for 2012? There is no limit to her nerve.

OK, I am confused. Did she not just label part of the country late last week or last weekend? Didn't she say that there were pro-America parts of the country. Is this woman real?

Are her supporters really, really naive or are they just ignoring all of this information?

Give Sarah a break. Considering the confusion she has over the role of Vice President, she may simply not know what a feminist is.

Another flip-flop from Palin, what a surprise.

The woman will say anything to be elected. I wonder how much the outfit she was wearing today was worth as she tries to make voters believe that she is "Jane 6 pack".

Changing one's tune – I would say that comment drips of sacrasm – oh wait, let's see who wrote it – oh yea, the neanderthal man. Feminist is so last decade. The woman runs a state government. Leave it to CNN to undermine woman with legitimized power – you know like CNN did with Hillary Clinton. All woman are feminists – it's known as evolution – but neanderthal thinking hasn't caught up.

HYPOCRITE.
She is an evil, ugly type of woman.
I would love nothing more than to see her and Hillary in a debate. But then again, is it really fair to drag Hillary ALL THE WAY DOWN to this womans level, and put them on equal footing?

I think not...

Sara Palin seems to be a woman free of tabus and prejudices. She understands her role in history. It just happens that she was born a female and the players at this time in history are not developed to understand her importance. John McCain is the only one who recognizes this phenomena.

Well a feminist, Ms Palin, would allow women to decide for themselves what to do about a pregnancy. they would also support a candidate who voted for equal pay for women. I also love the comment about not labeling people. Was she not the same Sarah Palin who labeled small town america as the "real america" and those of us in cities, and not republican as not real americans. Hopefully america, and especially women who actually believe in women rights, will show her the exit door on election day. And All I have to say don't let hit you on the butt on your way OUT!!!.

What a surprise! Sarah changed her mind. Did anyone notice how she took over the interview with Brian Williams today and said she wanted to be there for women in the White House? She's planning for her future and believe me we all need to take notice and run for the hills.

My Aunt told me that everything her generation fought for regarding women's rights over the last 55 years Sarah Palin has destroyed in 55 days. I think that says it all.

What else is new? She's a two face, no good repub.

Vote smart. Vote Obama/Biden

FLIP FLOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Nothing more to say!

Apparently Palin is just all around confused. She doesn't even know the role of the vice President, and belives that the VP is in charge of the senate, too.

She's probably thinks a feminist is someone who sells Mary Kay products.

Flip, flop...flip, flop. One day she is and the next day she's isn't. Considering she doesn't want to label herself, then what the heck is "maverick", "reformer", etc.

I am so ashamed that this is the type and caliber of the woman running for the 2nd highest office in our land. She gives a bad name to women everywhere.

My scariest nightmare is any little girl looking up to that women!What on earth is she talking about? Did anyone see tonight interview with Brian!She is embarrasing!

How about social conservative, Christian right theocrat for a label. Even members of her own party have to watch out, Support her or she'll turn on you. I can't account for her popularity but then I didn't understand why people would vote for Bush.

Gov. Sarah Palin has finally realized that people, Dem, Rep, and Ind are seeing through the false images she is attempting to present.
Gov. Sarah Palin is corrupt and Senator John McCain knew she was the wrong individual to have as a running mate. Governor Palin desires the United States to pay for her children. It is clear that the direction she is leading the state of Alaska is troubling. She may not win re-election in Alaska as Governor as her favorable rating has drop to 60% from 80%.
She is a feminist and will say anything to win an election. She is a socialist and desire to collect paychecks for her family for the rest of their lives.

CNN PRINT AND BROADCAST AN APOLOGY TO GOV. PALIN FOR DREW GRIFFIN'S DELIBERATE DISTORTION OF BYRON YORK'S ARTICLE AND THE IMPROPER EDITING OF GRIFFIN"S RESPONSE TO HIS QUESTION.

DO IT NOW- DO IT OFTEN- COWARDS' NEWS NETWORK

I wish this woman would tell the truth ONE time! Give us a little strait talk PLEASE! Correct answer ala Palin: "I personally consider myself a femminist, but I've been told by the GOP handlers that I should back off from that position because it may offend some of the Evangelicals...so I guess I have to say I don't want to label myself.
Please ask me a question that I can turn against Obama".

One of the qualities of a Palin feminism is for guys to buy you a whole wardrope to say that? This woman should not appear on CNN again please!

Riveting, just riveting.

Keep up the great investigative journalism. You have certainly earned your degree.

I don't care whether or not she calls herself a feminist. Focus on her abilities, knowledge, and credentials (or lack thereof), and concrete policy suggestions. The thought of her as President is downright scary.

FLIP, FLOP!

One day she is a femenist, one day she doe not know what she is.
Well, of course she is a lot of oher thing:s

Hocky Mom,
pit bull
Joe-six-pack type
Redneck woman

If there was just one reason for McCain to loose, is Sarah Palin, his runnignmate.

Go for OBAMA -BIDEN for change!

She'd better do a lot of studying for 4 years because she does not have a handle on the issues.

She'd better do a reality check on her honesty as well.

She won't even make it through the 'Primary Process', she appeals to a minority of the Republican Party. In fact, the Republican Party has been hijacked by the 'religious right' and by McCain's lack of leadership in allowing that to happen, he's lost the small "c" conservatives and the Independents.

Ummm... okay – now she is an expert at something?

According to the American Heritage Dictionary,

feminism: n. Belief in the social, political, and economic equality of the sexes.

Feminists, in the true sense of the word, simply believe in equality of the sexes. Nothing more, nothing less.

"Feminist", like "liberal", has had a negative connotation because a certain section of the country decided that perhaps they did not agree with equality.

This woman would get lost driving to the white house. She is a complete fraud and thinking American's have already figured this out. Just like the right wingers to support somebody because they look great in those clothes bought by the RNC donors.

Whats new? I think Mccain is even questioning Mccain's judgements

Why am I not surprised?

she shouldn't have accepted this VP nomination, I don't know what she was thinking when she accepted!

Furthermore, I absolutely have no idea what McCain was thinking when the idea of picking Palin crossed his mind...

Now, the boat is sinking...and there is only less they can do now!

Is this woman nuts – even a squirrel has more going upstairs that this one. I am totally convinced she has a plastic brain. Does she not have one coherent thought process – today this is the answer – two hours later, this is the answer – tomorrow, another answer.

Get a life.

According to my friend, Thomas J. Aron, women have had a large role in fighting crime in Alaska history. His novel, Sour Rain, is based on his own experience in Juneau in 1967. Does having a part in breaking up a crime ring or exposing and helping disband the "good-old-boy" network make a woman a feminist? Maybe each United States of America voter should get informed and make his or her own decision.

Yesterday McCain denied reports that he has flip-flopped, well, today on the RACHEL MADDOW Show, she rattled off exactly where he has flip-flopped (yes, I wrote them down): abortion, torture, immigration, social security, Bush tax cuts, gay marriage, campaign finance, off-short drilling, more troops to Afganistan, and finally on making Martin Luther King Day a holiday (yes, initially McCain was AGAINST making this a holiday! Enough said!! Mr. McCain are you regretting yet having chosen Karl Rove's people to manage your campaign? I could tell when they came on board, because then your ads began getting vicious. It's ironic, because they are the same people that campaigned against you in 2000. BY THE WAY, did anyone see SNL's Thursday show today? It was hilarious, the part where McCain is trying to get away from Bush.

Would she really run for president? I guess what's scarier is that a lot of people will vote for.

FEMINISM HAS LONG BEEN DEAD IN THIS COUNTRY

Does she know the definition of a feminist?

My headache is coming back again.--Will you please ask Sarah to define advocate, reformer, feminist, friend.-–Let me simple say Pallin is not prudent at all and McCain lives in the past.
McCain campaign and the republican party has cultivated a culture of hate and a divide that this nation has never seen before .

I am very convinced Obama will bring us back togther as one Nation

Her, a feminist? Please, my 6 year old daughter has more common sense then this twit...What has she proven to anyone, besides showing us she can wink, wave and shop...

Here we go, the say anything, do anything Plain. Just like Mccain! This woman couldn't put two sentences together just a few weeks ago. Now she is nstructed by her campaign as how to answer reporters. As an independent Voter, she does not represent me in any way shape or form!

LoL. Palin already said that she considered herself a feminist and now she is not going to label herself as one? My god, she will never stop lying.

To expect that she will remember something she said few weeks is too much

Palin says she is for equal rights and opportunity for women, but hasn't said she's for equal pay. Which is good considering McCain effectively voted against equal pay for women not so long ago. So she's two-thirds feminist. Way to sort-of advocate for your gender...

If she's a feminist, I'm a Conservative. Not!

Obama/Biden 2008 to 2012
1600 Pennsylvania Ave Bound

I guess the McCainians want a woman who knows her place.

Govenor Palin is a "Cosmo Feminist" – Hide your agenda behind your sexy style, and then when you've snagged your man (or position) POW! Remind him that its "cheaper to keep her" and do as you please! Palin has a nasty agenda – Mc Cain had better watch his back, because if they win, he will find himself screwed before he knows it – and he won't even get a kiss.

Was the wind blowing in the studio with Brian?? That would explain her flip-flop. It's amazing – she doesn't know what the VP does either...geez

"And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. " – Palin

What a hypocrite. Seriously.... it's unbelievable.

This woman is so stupid, she doesn't even remember what she said before.

I will be disappointed if anyone though she can be a good president.

The only people left supporting their ticket are people with an IQ less than 50, sexist and racists!

Obama/Biden '08

(i hope)

Why not look into Bill Ayers or Jeremiah Wright or Tony Rezko or any of these other people allied with Obama? He's running for Prez, not Palin, but the biased press wants us to know about Sarah Palin's wardrobe. Candidates usually get their designer clothes for free. Palin actually paid for her's like a regular person. Palin plans to donate her clothes to charity. What has Biden given to charity? Nothing. The media smears Sarah Palin (the very kind of woman they claim to care about) for buying clothes. Who paid for Hillary's pantsuits, Pelosi's pearls, and Biden's hair plugs? You couldn't pay off one of Tim Mahoney's mistresses for 150 grand, or Jesse Jackson's, or John Edwards' - not to mention the $80,000 Spitzer spent on hookers!

Technically, it's not that big of a deal. Perhaps in the earlier statement she made in which she agreed she was a feminist she meant the same thing as the second statement though she refused to "label" herself. Over a month of campaigning, you just learn to choose your words more wisely I suppose...

Why don't the interviewers ask if she is a flip-flopping two faced liar?

Because we already know the answer to that one!

Let's not be unfair about candidates spending money slavishly. What about Obama's television ads? All the money he makes he gives it to the midia. At least Palin is donating the dresses to charity. What's Obama doing about floding the television networks here in Virginia with his tv ads? I'm about to disconnect my cable tv because all I see is Obama's face everywhere. I like the guy but I just don't know why he doesn't give some money to the poor.

Yet she doesn't believe in a woman's right to choose what to do with her own body??? hmmmm.

She's a Dingbat!

So why does Gov. Palin charge women in Alaska over $1,000. for a rape kit, havn't they (women) went through enough.

a woman who won't say she's a feminist? no thank you.

i'd like to move forward instead of backward.

I do not think Palin knows much about anything

The VP candidate who says she doesn't believe in labels has done nothing but try to label Obama in the most inflammatory terms she thinks she can get away with.

she is not getting my vote.....pants suit lady for OBAMA

Really? She doesn't want to label herself now? Why not? She's so good at labeling everyone and everything else including "pro-america" parts of the country!

You see this is what really bothers me....she never answers the question....just telling you indirectly "yes I am a feminist if this is what you need to vote for me....but no I am not a feminist to avoid non-feminists to vote for me"..... GOVERNOR PALIN IT IS TIME FOR CLEAR ANSWERS!!!!!!!

Apparently, she does not know what a feminist is or she does not remember what she says from day to day.

The woman is an idiot. Please keep her away from anything of importance, ie. The White House or infact my house...She is scaring me.

No McCain/N0 Palin

Sarah is a mermaid,thats why she flipflops a bit.We are setting her up to run in 2012.

WOW, she should really go back to NOT talking to the media and stop taking interviews. She just keeps digging a deeper hole each time. I almost feel sorry for her. (I said ALMOST!!)

Every time she opens her mouth, makes me donate more money to the Obama campaign.

She will never EVER speak on my behalf, nor would I ever be friends with a close minded woman as such.

Flip Flop. What a numbskull. Please go back to Alaska so they can prosecute you for abuse of power and fraud.

PALIN DOESN'T BELIEVE IN A WOMANS RIGHT TO CHOOSE OR MAKE HER OWN DECISIONS.SHE IS A RIGHT WINGED REPUBLICAN WANTING TO SEND THE WOMEN BACK TOTHE STONE AGE. THE REPUBLICANS AND MCCAIN VOTED AGAINST EQUAL PAY FOR WOMEN.

MAYBE SHE SHOULD BE ASKED WHAT THE WORD FEMINIST MEANS.

GOOD LUCK! OBAMA\BIDEN FOR A NEW DIRECTION!

Really? YOU believe in equal rights? I would guess, given your speeches and your political affiliation, you don't have a CLUE what equal rights are. Please just go back to Alaska and speak in tongues or whatever the heck you and the Toddster do up there.

A woman who becomes a state governor is by definition a feminist, in the sense that she has sought and held a traditionally male job on her own, no matter whether she chooses to use the term or not. Or whether she chooses to use it some times and not others. This article is just another attempt at the inane hair-splitting that has become the norm for CNN's coverage of Palin and McCain. It serves no purpose other than fodder for the pack of jibbering baboons that attach themselves to this Ticker column and think that calling presidential candidates ridiculous names makes them look clever.

The woman cannot give an accurate answer..... The only thing i can say is this, what in God's name is a VP candidate doing on SNL?????!!!!! She is going to be one of the most powerful people in the world not Mrs Alaska 2009!

SAD

If she believes in women's rights, right off the bat she should agree with Roe v Wade regarding to a woman's right to choose .... but she doesn't and she's a phony .........

and the story is? what is the point of this story?

Of course what Palin really is is a LIAR.....

Palins definition of a feminist is a women who knows how to shoot and gut a "Moose", abuse their powers and go on a shopping spree.

I guess the Repubs forgot to tell her if she's a feminist or not.

Obama/Biden 08' Please!

Must think it would be a liability for 2012.

She's gonna say that she isn't a feminist now, as opposed to a few weeks ago when she said she was one of them there fema-nazis. That is the Maverick in her.

So sarah so there you go again lying

Sarah the nieman marcus shopper/ McCain the $500 shoe owner

sarah the feminist / non-feminist – McCain the eratic 2016

Sarah Palin seems to have a problem keeping everything straight. Whether its an answer to a simple question, reason for toting her girls cross country, at the expense of Alaska, or her reasons for targeting her brother-in-law.

"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian," she responded. "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "

WHAT!!
She did this with the whole 'real America' crap!
Its okay to dish it but not to take it?

Please. Just go away!

Sarah Palin is not a feminist. She does't repersent anyone but herself. she want to throw away every rights women worked so hard for.

Please make her stop! She is quite possibly the dumbest person to run for public office, EVER! Racists and Stupid are no way to go through life Sarah darling, Bless your heart!

Palin...go back to Alaska and fininsh growing up.

Who' Sarah Palin? That's the real question. We know she's an extremist and an abuser, but I am sure there is much more we dont know

It's hard to keep all the lies straight, folks. Geez. It's hard to remember who you are pandering to. Geez. It's even harder to remember who you are supposed to be when you're whole existence is a sham!

More like feminot. Palin is a joke

Labels??? I'm confused.If Palin has an affinity for placing labels on herself, why does she do it to others? It is hard for voters to know what she stands for when she does even know herself. She should have plenty of time to firguring it out after the election when she's back in Alaska. Bama, go Obama'08!!

Already flip flopping – LMAO

Yes I am......no I'm not.......well.....maybe I am......then again......

And they expect us to make this lady Vice-President? PLEASE!!

Sarah Palin one of the new faces. Obama could have closed the deal 2 month ago BUT he stuck with the OLD crowd, Biden. Barry's is th eone who makes this election close like McCain did with Palin.

When she does decide to answer a question she can never get her facts straight or give the same answer twice. One day she a feminist the next day she isn't. Which is it? After all these months campaigning she still doesn't know what teh roll of the VP is. Why can't she get it right, even a group of third grader got it right. This women is involed in two different investigation, and there is no telling what else has yet to be discovered about her.

What do you expect. She has had 2 months of indoctrination in the Carl Rove school of politics.

She is against reproductive rights, including access to information, so she is no friend of women. Palin will say she is whatever you want her to be to get your vote. Manipulative, not feminist.

To bad she doesn't believe in a women and that womens family's right to choose.

GOP doesn't believe in big govt but all of a sudden they want the govt to get in a very personal decision.

That is a decision between the woman her family and GOD. Government but the heck OUT!!!!

That is probably the most backward platform the GOP has.

Does Gov. Palin ever remember what she says at times? May be Katie Curric had her under pressure as McPalin claimed from past interviews. Or may be she was prompted to say anything to get women votes for Senator McCain presidency.

What a pandering sleaze.

sarah palin acts like a buffoon during interviews. give it up!

OBAMA 08

where is the hokey mom now? Standing in the light with her makeover. It a shame to do what is not right. Clothes don't matter it what wear in your heart. So put your heart in the right places. All hockey mom can't go on shopping trip.If you want to talk it you need to walk the walk.

She's not going to label herself unless she thinks that label is a positive thing like: maverick, hockey mom, reformer, pitbull with lipstick, etc. etc. etc.

What a joke this thing has become. Sarah Palin, welcome to the dustbin of political history, you're campaign is toast and you were just the lever that pulled down the bread.

Palin does not know what she is. Her first interview she said she was. She just all over the map . She is a woman that what control.
Something about her is not right......Ibelieve that she is after McCain
because he say stop and she say go what is she doing.....waiting for 2012.....she is a liar, but to be a good liar you have to have a good memory.......the lights are not on in Denmark!

Good answer the first time around and then a scripted answer once the "old boy network" had corrected her.

I am amazed I now hear so much about Palin for President on 2012. She was just found guilty of abuse of power, her ideals don't match most of America and she has, although she will argue this, no training at all in governing on the scale needed to cover the diversities of the United States. The arguments against Obama are actually more apt when speaking of Palin.

Let's get over the pretty face and new, shiny exterior and realize there are better men and women ready to serve for service to this nation and not self-serving amusement and shopping sprees.

VOTE –Palin–08

"And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different …. "

McCain and Palin started dividing and labeling different parts of America as being Pro-America areas and Real Virginia, and now she is claiming that she doesn't like to label different parts of America different. When in last few days and weeks that exactly what you have been doing. Hypocrites

Hypoocrite. Fake. Intellectually bankrupt. Loser.
For the sake of all caribou Barbies everywhere, pack up your designer clothes and shut up already. The sooner you go home to Alaska the better. Like John McCain, you have no credibility.

She also gave Couric a very different answer on abortion than what she recently told another interviewer. Her abortion viewers are, not surprsingly, strongly expressed in non-mainstream outlets. Does this mean she can get rid of the line about Obama saying one thing and San Francisco and another in the midwest?

The woman is confused. What a mess.

She didn't abuse her power either

She didn't use taxpayer money to fund trips for her children when they were not requested

She did not incite anger and hatred at her rallies

She did not spend 150K on wardrobe and then label herself the "average hockey mom from Alaska"

BULL

My Vote Counted

Obama/Biden

Don't advocate for me. You certainly can never represent me and you're no Hillary!

Is it Nov 5th yet?

I am so sick of the main street Media!!! They are the most stupid bunch of commentators and also Anybody with one eye and common sense would know Sarah Palin is much more qualified , God forbid that anything happen to John McCain. God help the people that are so narrow minded that they can't see that she is much more qualified than the so call Presidential nominee of the Democrat party Barrack Hussein Obama. What has happen to people that are so closed mind they cannot see how unqualified he is!!!!! Biden is so unqualified to be President , he can't keep his feet out of his mouth. God help us if Obama and Biden are elected. As for as Colin Powell backing Obama, what do you expect out of a person that was a failure as Secretary of State. He is just bitter old man!!!!! CNN you are awful to let your guy interview Palin and make a fool of himself. Then you don't even apologize for his stupidity.

I don't identify myself with Sarah Palin in any way. I have a brain, my own opinions and am no one's puppet.

She can't say that.

How about the right to a free rape kit?

How about the right to choose whom to marry?

How about the right to equal pay?

How about the right to choose whether or not to abort if one has been the victim of rape or incest?

Oh yeah........that's right! It doesn't jive with her FUNDAMENTALIST religious beliefs!

Can't wait for 11/5 so she gets sent back to where she belongs!

she doesn't like labels? right.

she likes designer labels, labels that divide us and rally people around emotions of hate and fear.

who is pro-american sarah palin? that's a label you keep throwing out there.

it's sad that she doesn't know what she stands for.

Funny...she doesn't want to label herself (at least not now), but she doesn't mind labeling Americans; as in "real" Americans and those who clearly must be "non-real" or "un-real" Americans.

And the part about her having been brought up in Alaska where she was expected to do whatever the men were doing. I wonder if that worked in reverse as well? Were the men expected to do whatever the women were doing? I doubt it. So it wasn't really about equality, but about making women do even more.

Say it isn't so Sarah. Are you saying whatever it takes to get elected? Saying one thing when you are with one group and another thing with someone else?

she doesn't know what it means. why vote for this ticket?

Bull. What happened to the comment about "real americans?". Isn't that a label you hypocritical woman?

Gov. Palin, what r u saying? U need to pick a lane and stay there. Quit jumping all over the place, it ruins the reputation of all women. Take my advise, do not say another word. U'll be better off that way, trust me..

She is an idiot.

SHES BEEN PUTTING LABELS ON EVERYBODY

JOE THE PLUMBER
ED THE THIS
TITO THAT THE THAT.

post post post!

Just like John McCain, she can't stick to her comments, Just flip flopping around, on issues. Sure first she's doesn't label herself, and before she says she is. Well What is it. Do you even know what a feminist is. Not. That's why she can't really answer that.

With all do respect, I do not want to come off as someone who doesn't seem sympathetic of the position that Gov. Palin is in at the present moment regarding this campaign. I think that she was used because of her gender to somehow bring those 18 million Senator Clinton voters over to the Republican side of the aisle and Gov. Palin has found herself in a position of being herself instead of being who and what her Republican party thinks she should be. I feel that she is grasping at straws that are sucking away at Gov. Palins natural voice all in the name of the Republican party. I think that Gov. Palin is starting to understand that she has an two fold battle to fight; one against Sen. Obama and the second against the Right Wing Republican Party. May the best win

Google -Election Day Keith Beatty

Tell me, Caribou Barbie, does that last statement apply to 'Pro American Women" or women like you who are members of a seccessionist party? You've contradicted yourself NUMEROUS times and that tells me you have no credibility whatsoever. Go Home.

Oh! Sarah the Feminist! or Not

But does a "feminist" wink cutely instead of cultivating informed, clear thinking?

I think that a lot of feminists would take issue with that definition, and with Palin calling herself a feminist.

I'm sorry but Mcain doesn't have a chance with a woman that changes her mind all the time.I would have voted for Hilary but Palin is definitely no Hilary

Please god November can't come fast enough. I'm not just talking about this particular post here, but I have a feeling things will get ugly in the days to come and my stomach hurts just thinking about it. Politics have to change and this election showed how important it is for these lies to change and change perminantly! If Mccain is elected, these Rove tactics will never go away, again I'm not just talking about this particular post but you guys know what I mean.

Oh, but she has no problem labeling Barack Obama or parts of America as "pro-America." Give me a break.

WORSE THAN A BLOND!

WHERE DID THEY DIG UP THIS DING DONG?

MCCAIN GONE INSANE

sounds like she doesn't know what her identity is. Just one more thing that shows she is not ready to lead. A real feminist would not allow the campaign to use her as a "Spokesmodel."
Obama/Biden 08

FLIP FLOP

"What annoys a lot of Americans" is Sarah Palin. Really. I cannot wait to start seeing much, much less of her. I think I speak for many when I say this. . . Whether she is a feminist or not–well, she acts like one of the "mean girls" from where I am sitting, and I've never seen much sisterly solidarity among them. That, coupled with her obvious antifeminist positions, pretty much takes her out of the "feminist" arena, I think.

This woman has no idea what she says!!
So let's just imagine ...GASP... for a minute (and that's far to long to my confront) she's ever in... swallowing hard!.. the White House, and she tells one world leader one thing and another something else.
ooppsy! We started a big ole war!

Seriously though, She's no feminist. She will do NOTHING to advocate for or protect the rights of women in this country or around the world.

How do you think McCain will grade this on the "saying what people want to hear" meter?

Who cares CNN do you have some kind of fetish with Palin. Your pundits constantly talk about her especially Brown. She seems to have a sick obession with her.

I just watched Palin on her airplane taking to a reporter and was asked if she was a "feminist" and she stated that she was that she believed in "equal rights for women". Now she stated in an interview this past week with NBC that she was not a "feminist", and how you define a "feminist". All in all she is a phoney. She states that she is a "hockey mom", she shops at Wal+Mart, etc. What happens recently the RNC buys her $150,000 worth of designer clothes for her to wear. That would almost buy a home for the average person. The "hockey mom" does not use that amount of money to purchase clothes. I speak from experience because I am a "hockey mom", etc., and I don't spend that much on my clothes. Again, CNN and the other media are partly at fault for the description of Palin. The interview that CNN had with Palin recently was not much of an "interview". A lot of softball questions were asked of her without no followup.

I honestly dislike her more and more each day.
How is she for equal rights for women BUT opposes equal pay for equal work??? Makes no sense – she lacks sense.

Is it a surprise that a woman who 'pals around with' secessionists (like her husband) say stupid things?

Hmm, sounds like someone must've gone to a couple coaching sessions, amirite?

Palin: "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds"

Gov. You mean like labeling people terrorist, socialist, communist, un-American, un-patriotic, real Virginia, real America, etc?" IT seems no one is better at labels than you and yes IT IS ANNOYING US!

She is not a feminist or an advocate for women. Anyone who seeks to deny women the right to choose what happens with their own body is NOT a friend of women. I doubt very seriously if women like her are in favor of forces vasectomies for men to keep women from becoming pregnant.

she will say anything, be anything to help herself. But she will label obama something new every day. Time for her to go back to alaska.

Flipping and flopping like a flounder on a boat's deck. I'm pretty sure that a "feminist" would be pro-choice. I could be mistaken... It's happened before. She doesn't like labels? Then it would be good if she stopped labeling various parts of the country "the Real America." As far as I can tell the "Real America" is wherever she is.

Sarah believes in the women in her universe – the universe that's only 6000 years old and she won't dare describe what that universe is like to the rest of the country.

Scary Sarah is keeping her cards close to the vest but, she has exposed enough of her beliefs to qualify as a truly flaky person.

If America wants to progress economically and in world stature, we need a new leader in Barack Obama!

She had no problem "labeling" what she thought was "pro-america" or "anti-america" so why would she have a problem now? You are no "friend" of mine!

Obama/Biden 08 and beyond!
Turn VA Blue!!
VOTE * VOTE * VOTE * VOTE * VOTE * VOTE

P.S. I shook Obama's hand yesterday at the No.VA Rally. He was so authentic and real during his speech which was a combo of the "usual" stump speech and interacting with the excited and exhuberant crowd . And he even signed my books. I'm convinced now more than ever ... he will be our next Prez!

The feminists must be killing themselves because for generations they have had a monopoly on the definition of feminisim. It was so-called 'feminists' who were out front attacking Palin in the most disgusting ways when she first emerged. So much for the lefts' anti-hate rhetoric.

This is not a surprise, but I'd at least expect Palin to remember her remarks in previous interviews especially after the gaffes she's had.

I think she's just trying to keep her head above water and survive the next couple of weeks knowing that if McCain gets elected things will slow down (at least in her mind) so that she can get her much needed on the job training. She's probably also changing her feminist stance because she's thinking ahead as to what position will work best for her 2012 run.

Somebody please help this lady back across the street to Alaska!!!

Wow...her kids must hate to go to school, or anywhere else where it's known that she is their mother...what a pathethic woman.

Of course she changes tune on 'feminist" just like she does on a whole range of things, and just like her political mentor Sen McCain. The McCain-Palin ticket is completely bankrupt of ideas and it would be the most unfortunate thing for America if they were to win the whitehouse.

she wears baby polar bear mittens.

It's easy to flip-flop when you're impulsive, erratic, and operating without principle, always on your own behalf. America, meet the real Sarah Palin.

She doesnt want to label americans different but thats just what she did on the campaign trail

FLIP-FLOPPER

She does not believe in womens rights.

She charged rape victims for the forensic exams (rape exams). Shame on her.

She will not be an advocate for women in the white house.

oh and if ur raped, ur not allowed to take the morning after pill in her administration and if u get pregnant expect to remain pregnant.

not even in the case of rape/incest does she believe a woman has a right to choose.

Im pro-life but her stance on womens issues go way tooooo far

VOTE OBAMA 08 for WOMENS RIGHTS

SO WHY CAN'T OBAMA SHOW US HIS REAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE. WHAT ARE YOU HIDING OBAMA? PROVE TO US YOU ARE AN AMERICAN CITIZEN.

When will this ridiculous display of ignorance end??

A Feminist (yes-I have a clear understanding of such) for Obama-Biden!!

Then why is Palin trying to oppress women?

She's such a moron, it's unbelievable.

The fact that the Alaskans actually voted her in means I don't ever want to go there.

And if Americans vote her in, I'm moving to Europe.

Doesn't believe in labels, yeah right. She doesn't seem to have a problem insinuating that certain people are socialists.

Wow thats the last straw. I'm voting for that nice guy thats visiting his grandma. You know, the one all the reporters are voting for.
Keep up the good work.

"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian," she responded. "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "

Hypocrite.

The dumbest she can get, she doesn't remember her answers now. McCAIN is the one who is willing to say and do anything to get elected. I"m tired of this dumb stuff.

Okay, let me answer this – HELL NO, she's not a feminist. Feminists care about their sisterhood. Feminists don't WORK TO TAKE AWAY THE RIGHTS OF OTHER WOMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHAT WOMAN WOULD VOTE FOR THIS WOMAN!?

LABEL DIFFERENT PARTS OF AMERICA = "PRO-AMERICA" comment she made.
LABEL ON HERSELF = "HOCKEY MOM, MAVERICK, REFORMER, FEMENIST"
OH PLEASE PALIN.

please do post this CNN!

Someone told her what a feminist is.

If she ever understood how the economy works, she stands for Wall street while people in Main street are loosing homes through foreclosures, people working double shift-nothing wrong with working double shifts but what if that’s all you do without spending time with your family, she’s does not portray her self like though cookie Mum,
-She could be advocating for equal pays
-She could be advocating for Main street bail out or just a relieve
Maybe because Alaska pays for her kids going round even to uninvited function that might be why, Joe Biden understands more the kind of conversation that goes a round the kitchen table than she does
So Go Obama and Joe

She labels herself as everything else so what's the problem now? She says "I'm not gonna label myself anything" but she has labeled herself as "Joe Six Pack", "maverick", "average hockey mom" and on and on. This lady is clearly lost and was thrown into a campaign way over her head. She can cry wolf as much as she wants but it is very clear she was and is not ready to be even close to a Presidential campaign. She needs to spend the next 4 years in Alaska prepping herself for 2012.

Gov. Palin is "not willing to label" herself (at least at this sitting), but she is willing to label Barack Obama a "socialist."

Says the Hockey Mom, Maverick, and pit bull with lipstick! Come on Sarah be honest! My label for you is GIMMICK!

People are not looking up to politicians who changes their definition of who they are depending on where and to whom they are speaking to just to gain votes!

Sheesh.

Ms. Palin is VERY GOOD at speaking from BOTH sides of her mouth.

MS. PALIN: YOU ARE PLAYED OUT!

Does this woman have a straight answer for anything?

Palin is about as much as a feminist as McCain is a real conservative.

Yea, and I'm Mother Teresa. Maybe Alaska should seceede–Morons

LOL She is about as far from a feminist as anyone could possibly be.

she is not a feminist. one who thinks that a women has no right to choice even in the extreme cases of rape and incest is by no means a feminist.

The sooner she returns to Alaska....the better it will be for ALL women!!

She doesn't want to start labelling different parts of America? As in calling parts of Virginia 'real Virginia'???? Calling people terrorits? Socialists?

She's totally wacked!!

This woman is crazy... notice when she is speaking, you can see LIES coming from her tongue. A good liar never stops talking and always has an answer to any and everything. Please , lets send
Paliar back to Alaska, (I am not sure if they want her back after getting to know and see their real Mavrick.
Obama/Biden 08

she thinks people should have equal rights, unless you're a loving gay couple who wants the same rights as their straight, married counterparts. before she gave interviews, people complained she wasn't giving interviews. now that she is giving interviews, it seems to be impossible for her to say the same thing to more than one person. she should have kept her mouth shut.

Gov. Palin, you are absolutely right, the American public is tired of political campaigns with labels. Is calling Obama a "liberal" not "labeling?"

Obama-Biden 2008!!

OMG she FLIP-FLOPED!!!!! Oh wait it's the republican ticket.

Obama 08

Equal rights. How about "Pro Choice". Do women really need the vote from men to decide what happens inside her body. A bunch of crusty, and dusty old men spitting their tobacco on too bar room floors will decide if a woman has this right. Genius! If it were us (men) who got pregnant, I'd bet that we'd see this right written into the bible, forget the Supreme Court.

Okay, that just did it for me. I'm switcing parties from voting for McCain and voting for Obama. Obama/Biden '08

Again, Palin offers no specific plans, initiatives or policies for her 'women agenda' just as she has nothing to add to her energy policies or anything else. An empty, albiet expensive, suit.

It's obviously another example of "gotcha" journalism...doesn't matter to me though because none of the women I know respect her at all and my vote has already been cast for Obama/Biden.

another gem now coming out of the other side of her mouth.
One has to admit – she truly has a gift for B.S.

A feminist who wants to take away my rights over my own female body.???? Explain.

Funny how she won't label herself, which is very easy for most people to do but, she has absolutely no problem telling everybody who the "Real American's" are... she has no problem labeling Obama as a "socialist" or even somebody who hangs out with Terrorists.

This woman truly scares me. I've known people like her and I can tell you right now... "It is either Her way or the Highway!" There will never be any nicities like "let's agree to disagree" and remain co-workers, friends, whatever. Her way or NO way!

150,000 worth of clothes in two months, that represents a whole town of struggling average jane. lady!

I am counting down to Nov 4th so as to never run across Gov Palin's unstable remarks, ITS TOO MUCH!!!!
I am so DONE!!
Besides if she considers herself a born again christian like she claims, then she should have been told that feminism is no where in the Books
aaarrrghhhhhh!!

Q: Gov. Palin, do you consider yourself an intellectual?

A: DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH................YA YA YA YA YA!!!

Did she forget what she said previously? If not, why has she backed away from her affirmation of being a feminist? Surely she understands the speculation that will follow? She must have a plan here that will become evident once we see the light.

CNN–why don't you get off it? Sarah Palin is so much more accomplished than her critics--Mayor, Governor with the highest approval rating in the U.S., Member Alaskan Energy and Conservation Board, Candidate for VP-all by the age of 44 and all while raising 5 kids. Not only that, she's gorgeous and that further kills her critics.

You can keep criticizing but she just keeps on smiling at you and moving forward. She's the big winner in the end because she has millions of adoring fans who don't care what Ticker readers say and they will reward her in many ways.

Do you think there is any bias in the media against women? Hillary never got a fair shake. I know Obama is the greatest leader that ever was, but they need to ease off of Palin. The american people might get the wrong idea.

What about charging women for rape kits in Wasilla? How does that qualify her as feminist (per the Couric interview)?

She may not want to label herself "as anything". But she sure doesn't have any trouble smearing others as terrorists, un-American, rogue cops, rogue police commissioners, socialists, etc.

Palin told Couric she defines a feminist as "someone who believes in equal rights. Someone who would not stand for oppression against women."

ME, TOO, SARAH! EQUAL RIGHTS! YOU GO, GIRL! YOU'RE LIVING IT! I ADMIRE YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The old "feminists" - and the "drive-by media" entrenched in their PUTRID "Obama Mania" - are nothing more than a bunch of dried-up old hags, holding onto their particular version of "feminism" of the 60s and 70s.

GO McCain/Palin !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - for restored sanity and honor in our great U.S.A.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are people blind and stupid? This woman is incredibly laughable..

Quote:
In an interview on NBC Nightly News that aired Thursday, host Brian Williams asked Palin: "Governor, are you a feminist?"

"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian," she responded. "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "

Go back a week or so..

Quote:
"We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard-working, very patriotic, very pro-America areas of this great nation,"

Stupid

"I'm not gonna label myself anything, Brian," she responded. "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "

You gotta hand it to Palin. She's got some gall!!!!! SHE SPENT THE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN LABELING AMERICA!!! This Northeast Liberal "Anti-American" elite (as she likes to call us) is amazed at how two-faced this woman can be.

Nice to know that she doesn't believe in labels. This coming from a woman who has painted her opponents with every label under the sun. I cannot wait until the clock runs out on this vile hypocrite and her fifteen minutes of fame.

Sarah your a idot!

She probably doesn't have any idea what a feminist is.

150,00 worth of clothes and make-up, lady you certainly don't represent me.

so Joe Six Pack and Maverick label was all just a gimmick too?

What was it that McCain said today? Oh yeah...

"Obama will say anything to get elected".

This is vintage Karl Rove; blame your opponent for everything you do wrong.

I am still waiting on CNN to call Sarah Palin out on her ties with the Alaskan Independence Party!

She should just describe herself as an air head since that something everyone can believe and she won't get caught in a lie.

Imagine this could be your President. You betcha.

Hmmmmm...well which one is it Palin, you make me wonder why you accepted to be the McCain choice for VP, a skirt and a smile will not get you in.

As Bugs Bunny says: "What a maroon (moron)"

And I want to be in the White House........if that mean flip flopping and ditch McCain on the curb!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sarah Palin believes what she is told to believe.

palin doesn't want to be labeled, but she sure does a good job labeling others.

if palin doesn't get elected, she should join fox. they love her there.

lady you certainly don't represent me.

She doesn't really have any position on this, she just says what she thinks poeple want to hear or what her handlers coach her to say. Cardboard cutout...not a true candidate by any stretch of the imagination.

Ms. Palin's extremist views on abortion make her anything but a friend to women. The last thing we need is a theocrat reversing Roe v. Wade and ruling over our reproductive lives. Abortion is a complicated issue in so many ways, and each woman should be able to make her own decisions with her doctor.

Here we go again. This is like a BAD soap opera that we have been forced to watch till Nov-4. I had to get it over with today and voted for the folks who will move our country forward. Vote OBAMA-BIDEN.

Palin has not bought forth any NEW or BRILLIANT or even positive ideas. All she blabs from her moving lipstick are ugly,divisive and untrue statements. Attack dog- yes she is. Smart – She is not.

We have seen what happens when we are governed by people who are not Smart. BE WISE!

HAHAHAHAH – really, seriously...Palin said she doesn't like to label people, parts of the country?
So, calling Obama a terrorist pal and Greensboro NC 'real America, pro-American', calling the East Coast 'elitists'....She is a regular Dymo Label Maker!! I'm still laughing at this

Palin is a pseduo-feminist. She is a woman who, in a leadership role, attempts to set female progression in America back several decades. With Palin in power, women should expect progress to halt and remain static or, worse yet, devolve.

Why do instances such as this make headlines CNN??? You are so in the bag for OBAMA it isn't funny.

This is a much bigger issue, but hardly covered..

Did Obama change his tax plan just days before the election?
The Verdict: True.

That is an issue.. not about weather someone thinks she's a feminist.
CNN- you should be ashamed..

I'm so sick of this woman. One day she's this, another day she is this. How many days now until this is over, 12? Is it possible to sleep for 12 days and avoid what other crap she comes up with until then?

She doesn't know what she is, unless somebody tells her.

Wow, she IS running for 2012. SCARY

Wow.

For someone who refuses to label herself, she is sure quick to slap a label on others.

Watching Larry King Live with Michael Moore. Has plumber's for Obama working on the back ground. The two "plumbers" have been working on the same sink for the entire hour. Now I can see why they are Obama supporters. They are probably union members.

Oh, Sarah, but it's alright to label Barack as a socialist, elitist and possible terrorist. I see, thanks for clearing that up for me, hypocrite.

McSay anything and pickle brains can't get their lines straight... When you asked the lady from the view to campain with you that was a slap in the GOP face...

Dear God,

Please save us from this woman.

Your daughter,
Heidi

Thanks, Sarah, but this American woman doesn't need anyone to be my "friend" or my "advocate" who feels that they should get a say in wht I do with my own uterus. Thanks, but no thanks.

Not only does Sarah Palin not know the job description for the position to which she aspires, she's confused even on her own positions. She becomes a bigger joke every time she is interviewed. This is certainly not someone we should consider to be next in line to be the leader of the free world, and McCain shouldn't be elected because his stunningly bad judgement in this and vicious attacks in this nasty campaign have discredited and disqualified him in the minds of many thinking voters. Obama-Biden....our only choice.

Regarding the McCain supporter that SAYS she was robbed and had the 'B' cut into her face – some reporters need to investigate because the 'B' was cut backwards – like you do when you do it to yourself in a MIRROR! What a scam! I hope they find out the truth and charge that girl with making a false report.

This does not relate to this story but why is Florida cutting back the hours at the election centers. I cannot believe the Repubs are trying to steal this election again....

CNN, why are you not investigating this issue....this is a big issue, I hear some of the centers close at 3pm...

People in Florida, please be aware.

Vote for Obama/Biden. Florida, turn BLUE.....

Waht a complete phony!!!

palin is so double minded, which one is the lie, palin?, you have lied to us so much. how in the world did you get to be governor?? VOTE OBAMA-BIDEN

GO PALIN ... you are my Lady – keep up the good works! We are human and we do make mistakes – do not let that throw you off – I hope you continue to bring out the information that BARACK OBAMA wants a welfare STATE, why should we work hard and give out unnecessarily. Some of these people can find jobs and work but they sit and wait on our money – WELFARE and FOOD STAMPS..
LET THEM GET WORK TO DO

GOOD LUCK SARAH PALIN AND JOHN MCCAIN

And yet McCain recently made a point of saying that Palin was not a feminist. They can't make up their minds about anything.

...and want to get married. Palin is a GOP puppet and a severe liar.

"And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different … I'm not going to put a label on myself. "

You Think?! So whats with the parts of the country that are Pro-America comment? Come on do you hear yourself?

So in other words, Sarah, just like always, you don't know what the Hell you are talking about!

You can't correctly explain what the duties are of Vice President of the United States, the position you're running for, and you can't even explain your own views on issues in the world with any sort of consistency. I know that McCain was trying to appeal to all the women who wanted Hillary Clinton, but this is to the point where it is really sad......

Obama/Biden 2008

This woman is a fool and no more than a prop for McCain.

She is an insult to American women.

That's interesting. She's certainly willing to throw every label at Obama quite easily. And as far as labeling different parts of America "different" isn't she also the one who was so happy to be in the "pro America" part of the country? Here's a label that suits her well: hypocrite.

Maybe Brian Williams should have asked her if she was a moron...she would have answered yes to that one....you betcha!

Lol..I guess McCain TOLD her the appropriate answer after the Couric interview...

Oh, my Lord. Did she really say, "And I think that's what annoys a lot of Americans, especially in a political campaign, is to start trying to label different parts of America different, different backgrounds, different..."?

Governor, isn't that EXACTLY what you've been doing lately? Putting labels on "real America," and "real Americans"?

What a ninny!

Michael Moore said it best on Larry King....weather you are a Repub or Dem, do you really want to give someone the keys to the White House after only knowing them seven weeks? I mean come on.....at least Obama has been in teh "spotlight" for 4 years....

She changes her mind on issues like she changes shoes....

Just wondering......do her children go to scholl or are they schooled on the road? And if they are schooled on the road who is paying for that? At least Obama's kids are going to their regular school!

first McCain says Obama will say anything to get elected and now Palin, the self-described hockey-mom-maverick-pitbull doesn't think she should be labeling herself or different (pro-american) parts of the country? these republican hypocrites need to get their stories straight. get real.

Obama 2008
