[...] In On Celebrity CNN Political Ticker POLK CITY, Florida (CNN) — At a boisterous Sarah Palin rally in Polk City, Florida on Saturday [...]

It's so funny how McCain's low road VP pick is totally backfiring on him now

Talk about throwing McCain under the Straight Talk Express

Go Sarah Palin!!!

And by 'Go Sarah Palin' I mean go help Obama win an enormous landslide.

McCain picked her. If history is prolog she takes the jobs of those who appoints her or recommends her, WHAT DID HE EXPECT????

McCain will have " Joe The Plumber"!!!!!!

This is what sell-outs deserve.

Now McCain's name nowheer seen in Florida rally...soon Pallin name will not be seen anywhere either.......NOV 4th is the day.....

People please go and VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE

Some how if this worthless POS Palin thinks she will get independent votes like me forget it. McCain control your pitbull (i.e., bixxx per her own admission that she is a pitbull) before she will lose all independent voters. You know what – I can never vote Republican if that's all the campaign is about;. Denigrating your opponent with terrorist label, socialist, communist simply because he is a black with an IQ that is greater than combined IQ of McCain and Palin. Palin/McCain showed the worst in human beings. I pray for the safety of Obama. McCain get back to basics – you WERE a decent person, but now a jerk like Limbaugh, Ann Coulter and the rest who spew hate and hide under a skirt when it comes to fighting for this country.

Watch out McCain Sarah is aiming for you!

That's interesting because recently I received a copy of Townhall ( a conservative magazine) that showed the same thing. Don't ask me why they sent me this free copy, I'm a registered Independent for Obama. The interesting part is on the cover is a huge picture of Ronald Reagan and Sarah Palin but no mention or picture of John Mccain. They do realize if they win, Mccain will be president don't they?

Well, now what do we have here? Although I wish Sarah Palin would run back to Ted Stevens and Alaska and work on her grammar, we really can't blame her. What kind of campaign management and candidate leadership is this blunder? Who failed to efficiently plan for this rally? Obviously nobody in McCain's campaign.

Looks like the republican voters and the congressional candidate in this place planned well. McShame! McShame! McShame! So much for leadership and experience, "My fellow prisoners." – Quote from the horse's mouth at one of his own McShameful rallies. And he seriously believes terrorists respect him enough NOT to test him. Is he serious? Give me a break, McCain is hard pressed to get respect from his own party and voters. Case in point, this "Palin Country" rally. WOW! LOL people, LOL!

That's quite hilarious....she won't be winning anything in 2012 either though!

Reminds one of rats fleeing a sinking ship.

WHAT? How can anyone be surprised by this...? She's been out for hereself all along. The woman is Dick Cheney's lost child...

A person who wants power so much, should never be in power.

Sweet. McCain distancing himself from Bush, now Palin cutting lose from McCain. Can't make this stuff up.

anybody surprised?

A vote for Palin is a vote for McCain, so if she can stir up support for herself personally, whether or not it was intentionally separate from McCain himself, then the ends justify the means for the greater good of the McCain campaign. You could make the argument either way about Palin "going rogue" here: either she's garnering support for the Republican ticket that might not have been acheived by McCain himself, or she's trying to build up her own "fan base" for her future endeavors. Either way, it is somewhat strange...

Why does this surprise anyone? It's all about her..I previously lived in Alaska...what a pitiful place for anyone with a progressive attitude and desire. Sad to say if she is the best thing Alaska has to offer then that should tell you something. She is uneducated, backwards socially and does not shop in second hand stores. Hello, she is the governor, for now anyway. She should return to her land and go back to school get more education, raise her kids, run for Senator and then try this again. She's no more ready than her husband (doesn't he have a job? why is he at her side all the time?)

There's no other word for it other than INSANE. The woman is INSANE. Please somebody snowmobile her back to Alaska!!!

Why would this be a surprise? Clearly, she has the delusion that she is the presidential candidate and not McCain. This is dangerous and divisive within the Republican campaign when not only do they not have solid plans for America, but they have proven without a doubt that this attitude will carry over into an administration "if" McCain wins.

You think we are in a nightmare scenerio now? Just wait till she gets in office!!

It's not often you see a national politician seemingly revel in being a loose cannon. Not a maverick – a real loose cannon.

Please – and I'm on my knees begging at this point – PLEASE let her take the reins of the Republican Party after losing this election! As a Democrat, nothing would make my heart happier.

palin tried to steal Alaska and all it's resources from Americans! And all the natural gas that Alaska didn't use she sold to other countries!! The "lower 48" got none of it! That is anti-American!

Mutiny. Coup. Can you imagine her as VP?

Can you just imagine, a Palin Presidency? LUDICROUS!

HAHAHAHAAHAHAAHA, has palin gone "more rogue?" I love it when wingnuts eat their own.

Clearly, Mrs. Palin has her own agenda. She was manipulated by the McCain camp to begin with and now is carving her own tracks. She has contradicted herself and is spinning a new web. By the way, are the thousands of dollars in clothing for her children also being returned? Who does she think she's kidding?

And anyone is surprised that she has the loyalty of a ... a politician... suprised that she will stab a fellow republican in the back? three days before the election?
If you are you haven't done any research on her background.. the facts are out there and easy as pie to find... look em up yourself and quit taking whatever the parties say... thiink for yourself!
She was just convicted of ethics charges for godness sakes...

As a very liberal Democrat, I have the ability to understand and respect points of view different from my own. I even understand the Republican mindset. However, Sarah Palin truly frightens me, thought not nearly as much as the people who support her. That there are actually people, some of them intelligent, who believe she would be an effective VP (and possibly Pres.) is more than I can grasp. Even if you agree with her morals (pro-life, etc) you must be able to see that she simply cannot run the country. Not even marginally intelligently. It's not Dem v. Repub or even Liberal v. Conservative. She is simply NOT QUALIFIED. To the undecided voter: please! pay close attention to what can happen. Even tho it is unlikely, I am so frightened to death that somehow McCain/Palin are going to weasel their way in to the White House. Obama will let you think differently that he. Palin will make HER beliefs yours, like it or not.

This is just too funny, but so expected. Watch your back, John.

Like Joe the Plumber ???
How many ordinary Patriotric Americans , have convictions
For Domestic Violence , in front of Children
Wurzelbacher , Joseph Docket # DVA0400222.
Or 2 Divorces involving Battered Shelters – Domestic Abuse.

** This should be a bigger story! ** headlining every blog & newscast.

This represents McCain's disastrous lack of judgment. Palin is a vitriolic, rogue opportunist, offering cheap entertainment at the most serious time in our generation. Cheap, vulgar and way off track. Thanks, McCain. You created a monster and now she has eclipsed YOU !!

Bad boys, bad boys, wadya gwanna do ... wadya gwanna do when they come for you?

I am starting to feel sorry for McCain – not enough to not want him to lose by a landslide – but brought this disease in house and is the first to fall ill.

Well, John McCain did this to himself. He picked a VP Nom with "Nothing to loose"...So she can kick him to the curb and continue on without him! Good going McSame!

WHEN IS PALIN RELEASING HER MEDICAL RECORDS AS PROMISED?

Why is CNN refusing to cover this story?

She's already campaigning for the 2012
Palin/Joe the Plumber ticket
What a shame

Hey seniors, before you vote for McCain think about this, and this is factual, not the lies you've been told by Palin. You will be much better off with a Obama presidency, why? because, under the McCain policy that $5000 he intends to give the American people for health care is going to come from your medicare and social security benefits.
Under Obama
If you make less than $50,000 a year you won't have to pay income taxes at all!

Sarah Palin should go back to Alaska and take care of her own business. Her family seems to be the one that is in the most disarray in this country.
And now McBrainless and her are trying the FEAR tactic at the end of all the other garbage they have tried to spread around during this election, like manure.
McCain should be ashamed of the campaign he has run, it was a campaign without any honor.
It started in S.C. in the primaries when he let a woman get away with calling Hillary a "B" word, and I was not even for Hillary, but he should have stopped the nonsense back then. He is no man of honor I do not care how much time he spent in Prison.

Palin is making a statement. She knows they won't win so she is getting ready for 2012

Palin will rot in h*** for her lies and misleadling stump speaches.
This is not my definition of Christian voices.You can almost here the
devil in her voice.It will be Gods will on Tuesday and our votes !!
If she plans on running in 2012 I will switch parties just to vote against
her in the Pa primaries.She a total waste of air..I can't stand the way
she brings out hate in people...This goes for me too !!

They've already written off McCain. It's very scary to see that they can envision Palin being POTUS in 2012..

I am sick and tired of CNN's reporting that undercuts the McCain campaign at every turn, while inflating the Obama campaign. Your bias is shameful and a disservice to the public.

It is very obvious that Palin has interio motives. Mccain, she is using you and right from the onset you picked her she knew you'll not win.

This is just another nail in the GOP coffin.

Did someone call Palin a Diva?

Lol!

Yow!

[her next rally has signs, alrightee! They read "Vote Palin/McCain"!...have you noticed that the standard Obama/Biden signs have the two names in DIFFERENT sized fonts but the McCain/Palin signs have the two names the same size?...dum de dum dum...]

Wow, McCain has already been booted. Miss I lie when my mouth is moving has taken over the McCain campaign.

Stupid Sarah for President! This is the end of America...maybe all good things have to end.

So much for loyalty to McCain. This has sure been a weird Republican run. I don't know who Putnam is but first glance tells me there is an ultra-conservative running in this area of FLorida. I voted Obama so can't get too involved in trying to read the "Republican psyche" on this.... confusing message though.

Until she goes on a Sunday morning talk show, or hold a press conference. CNN can really chill out on coverage of this woman.

Aha! The other snowboot drops.

Go Obama/Biden.

One man, one vote. Everybody vote!

WOW! That alone speaks volumes about the Republican candicacy that Gov Palin would allow those to remain. It not only disrespects McCain as being the presidential nominee, it also clearly shows one more way Palin is going "rouge" and is starting to distance herself from what may be a losing battle at this point.

And you are surprised by this???

Now why would McCain's name be at a Palin rally? She barely knows him. She's running for 2012--NOW.

She knows she has to gain the American peoples confidence in her....A whopping 59% of Americans think she's not qualified to be VP.

Palins motto: 2012 or BUST!!!!!

I say send Sarah Palin home to Alaska where she belongs.

Well at least McCain succeeded in creating two celebrities, Sarah Palin and Joe The Plumber. Perhaps the latter two should run for the ticket in 2012.

I do remember that interview where Palin suggested Obama must have been kicking himself for not picking Hillary. Oh, the irony.

The GOP is putting it's future in Palin's hands? Do they never learn? Will it remain the anti-intellectual party bent on calling smart people elitists? Pathetic.

Sarah Palin is the devil's advocate.

For a woman (I use that word loosely) who professes to be a Christian (and I refer to her relationship with God loosely), she sure can spew lies out of her mouth.

What a vicious woman Palin is.

And to think the Republicans hope she will be the leader of their party. I hope so, too, because you can say buh-bye to Lincoln's party.

What is tragic in all of this is that the folks in the crowds who come to see her are so uneducated and uninformed and have no where to go to get the truth for themselves (I doubt many of them know how to Google).

This lying wench get her junkie butt back to Alaska fast enough. She promotes hate and division. A true political incompetent!

If the REPs still this election........I am moving to Canada!

Now this is amazing even McCains own running mate has realized this is a sinking ship and is trying to save her own skin. Looks like we might see Palin in 2012 for president. And thats ok with me since she has a snowballs chance of getting into office.

Obama/Biden in 2008-2012

Actually, in the video clip you provide there are McCain signs.

McCain's Campaign is extremely disorganized.

The McCain campaign is demoralized! The blame game has begun. There is a big rift between John McCAin aides and Sarah Palin loyalists. It seems Palin is already running for the future. McCains mistake was the choice of Palin for Vice President. She brought the negative tone in his campaign so many people didn't like.

If Palin is claiming Florida for herself now, what happened to her fight for VP in 2008. Looks like a campaign for Republican nomination in 2012.

Oops, is "Joel's Army" on the march in Sunshine State? Any hands on stuff happening?

Disrespect to John Mcain by his on party. Sad really sad!

I'm sure the McCain's are gonna go ballistic over this Palin Maverick. Lesson: be careful what you wish for McCain.

Good luck, McCain. If you are elected, this vile woman will see to it that you do not serve out your term. Better hire a food taster, and watch your back around Todd.

I am not surprise – this is the way GOP works everything (2 faced)

haha...what else is there to say?...hahahaha...

Obama/Biden 08

Kina.

What??? The VP candidate is trying to outsage the Presidential candidate? And this particular VP candidate... she's an international joke. But this... is quitre sleazy. She wouldn't be getting this attention if she hadn't been chosen by cCain. I think that reflects badly on McCain, but has the Barbie ever heard of gratefulness? Guess not... there's so much she hasn't heard of...

That's ridiculous. You vote for the President and the VP tags along. Super ego starting to control this woman. Although in this case perhaps it's a good thing since the main reason many won't vote for McCain is his atrocious choice of running mates, and those signs will serve as a reminder.

This is telling. While only a third of Americans think she is qualified to be VP or POTUS we see that those same folks are coming to these rallys in droves. She is charismatic but it is disturbinbg that they would allow so much emphasis to be on her instead of McCain. What does this say about the Republicans plans and about her ego.? She is his running mate not his boss, at least not yet.

MANY DO NOT HAVE TO BE REMINDED , WHO IS BEST FOR THE COUNTRY.

THEM, PEOPLE CAME TO SUPPORT SOME , ONE AT LAST IS STEPPING UP AN TELLING THEM WHAT THE OTHER SIDE IS LIKE.

OBAMA, PROMISE ONE THING TODAY , CHANGES IT TOMORROW . NEXT DAY STANDS UP AND SAY'S " I NEVER SAID THAT "

ONE THING HE DID SAY" ON MEET THE PRESS , WHEN I GET IN , THE NATIONAL ANTHEM HAS TO BECHANGED, ALONG WITH THE FLAG , " MAKE IT MORE ISLAMIC , SO MICHELLE AN I CAN ENJOY IT. YES, WE HAVE WENT TO MANY FLAG BURNINGS IN OUR DAY'S.

WAKE UP AMERICA , THIS IS UN WARRANTED , WHAT DO ALL OUR VETERANS THINK OF THIS . I FOR ONE DISSAPROVE , OF SUCH A STATEMENT , AN THIS MUSLIM IS TRYING TO ENTER THE WHITE HOUSE. IF IT HAPPENS IT IS A END OF AMERICA ERA. OUR FOUNDING FATHERS WOULD LIKE TO COME AND FACE SUCH . A LOW BLOW . YOU COULD NOT GO MUCH LOWER.

NO NO OBAMA , ANOTHER LIE JUST OUT HE DIDN'T KNOW HIS AUNT WAS AN ILLEGAL AN WHAT NEXT????.

IT IS TIME TO STAND UP , PUT DOWN THIS DNC CHOICE , CLEAN UP HIS BACK GROUND AND TRY 50 YRS FROM NOW.

GOD BLESS AMERICA. – SHE IS NOT FOR SALE.
GIVE EM HELL MAVRICKS , MAKE EM EAT THERE OWN WORDS.

Hi,
Are Americans really so stupid as to relect republicans ?
Republicans have destroyed both the image of America world wide and the economy.
No one noticed that the Iraqi Ministry of Petrol was ransacked when the war was "won"
Is America really so stupid ?
Is America going to re-elect republicans ?
America is dead in that case.
Long live America.

Seems that Sarah Palin is running for 2012 now – McCain has to lose first.

Sarh Palin is the lowest common denominator among the ignorant, and only those who embrace themselves with her "Joe the Plummer "bulls@*t champion her cause. "A fool will always try to find another fool to admire them."

She is now at the top of the ticket.

Sarah Palin......the product of "Reality TV" in the US.

So obvious that Palin is power-hungry! This speaks SO loudly for the true state of the McCain campaign! They are already throwing their candidate under the bus! Poor old McBush!

I guess this is what's meant by 'going rogue'.....yikes!

Gosh, I wonder why they didn't include McCain's name. Whatever could that mean?

I think Palin will screw McCain over and use him for her own advantage just like she did others in Alaska.

I forgot one thing....

Florida is NOT Palin country! Go back to Alaska, animal killer!

Poor Mcain..not even his running mate Palin Half Baked Alaskan wants him for President!

OK, that is more than a little weird.

Looks like they are all planning ahead to 2012.

Palin has already bailed on the McCain camp and is looking forward to losing in 2012.

Looks like Sarah is ditching another mentor in her ambitions.

Hmmmm, maybe the ticket ought to be reversed at this time and don't forget about the possibility of the VP nominee having greater power over the president's office under a McCain/Palin administration.
First, she tends to draw a bigger crowd than him and secondly it is an expansion of the powers of the VP, especially seeing that the president is old, forgetful and dumb enough to have chosen her.

Where are Palin's medical records? She said she would release them, but she has not. Palin Lie #1,827.

That figures. Palin is pretty self-centered. She's a disgrace to dignified and intelligent women!

Maybe Palin is smarter then most think? You would have to think she is looking at the future, her future that is.

I still cannot believe that Sarah Palin is the VP nominee for the GOP and STILL HAS NOT HELD A PRESS CONFERENCE
3 days before election . This is unheard, they would want to get someone elected by showing her off behind curtains or by carrying her around in a bird cage like a parrot, who keeps repeating the 10 words she knows .

Yeah yeah yeah....Palin taking over, blah blah blah.....hey CNN...where is the update on Dick Cheney coming out and publicly endorsing McCain??

Hmmm...one can only wonder what this means.

No big surprise.
Obviously, there is real tension between McCain and Palin, and not just their advisers. Palin's plan: lose this thing for McCain, and blame him for not letting her talk enough.
Shoe-in for 2012.

Wow! Sarah, you could at least wait until the electionis over before you diss your running mate. He is, after all the reason you have a national stage to promote yourself and your wayward agenda! You have been so aptly named: Sarah Barracuda.... I've said it once, and I'll say it again, Republicans really do eat their own.

what does this means... vote for me and hope he dies.

Now That's Just Mean. Sarah Palin And Her Team are Just Out For Themselves.

I'm not a McCain Supporter but i feel very sad for Him

WOW............ the new repubican party!!!!!!! Thats just great...

Is anyone really surprised? She's started her 2012 campaign.

Seriously, these conservatives that are for Palin are as dumb as they look. You want the most unqualified person to be vp and possibly the president who has done nothing but preach hate and doesn't know anything about the national issues nor international affairs. " Alaska is next Russia, there for I have foreign policy experience" . REALLY.....I was shocked to hear that come out of the GOP.....They said that out loud.....really....

I dont think that picture matches the caption.

I wouldn't vote for anything with her name on it! McCain (if he wasn't such a negative old man) wouldn't be so bad if she wasn't on the ticket! Oh well.... I'm an Obama/Biden fan all the way and Palin needs to go home and raise her children – especially that pregnant child.

Sarah will be sitting up in Alaska for the next four years throwing darts at Obama everytime he makes a mistake. Obama will probably be impeached in 09' as he is overwhelmed by the failing economy and people are walking the streets looking for work.

Sarah will retun in 2012-wiser and tougher to claim the U.S. Presidency. Can't wait.

Does this surprise anyone? She is now campaigning for herself and a possible run for a Senate seat or President in 2012. LOL She threw McCain under his own straight talk express a long time ago. Had McCain been able to nominate his own choice ( Lieberman ) he might have won this thing. All Palin did was bring the RW base home, while Lieberman would have pulled indy's, moderates and women voters along with the real conservatives..

2012 just began.

The state of Florida on that sign oddly resembles the depiction of a gun does it not??

hmmmmmm I wonder who the president would be if they got elected?

Wow these Republicans are really upside down. Sarah Palin doesn't really care if McCain wins, in fact I think she wants him to loose so she can run as the President in 4 years. She wants to take Sen. Ted Steven's position for four years and run for President. I think America needs to simply disown this disgracesful Sarah Palin figure.

Sweet ... and rogue indeed! Palin's ambition has no ceiling and her judgement has no floor, and that is just fine with me The sooner she starts her 2012 run the sooner it will end.

Trully, let the GOP split in two, the moderates and the radicals. Fascinating ...

I have no respect for McCain or Pailn at this point. Close listening to S Palin has shown me that she does not listen to herself. She has the ability to deliver liers, she does not have the ability to think.

I guess that self respect & integrity are not part of her values. I am so disappointed in her as a female, lies, lies & more lies. How can a candidate deliver such vile and false statements & think we are to believe her, sadly there are some out there who will, they are the uninformed who have others do their thinking for them. They do not search for the truth, so on election day their votes will be cast & they will not have learned anything. The lines to the polls are long but the lines to the truth are ignored.

But, she is enjoying the attention, that is very obvious.

What do you expect?? Obviously, the VP pick for the Republican party is only out to make a name for herself and continue in the national spotlight!!! I don't believe, nor do I hope, that John McCain will be our next president, but if he surprisingly is, he better hire a food taster! I wouldn't trust Palin as far as I could see her!!

I never planned to vote for John McCain, even before he announced his pick for Vice-President, but having her on the ticket only reinforces my initial choice of Obama/Biden!

Go Barack O./Joe B. '08!!

I think Alaska would gladly give her to them.

----–Palin 2012--No more liberal media and no elite liberal media, finally. We can go back into the 50's. Palin is a joke. She should host a realtiy TV series....Palin In Moose Country!

She has no shame

McCain should watch his own back if he is elected. His VP should not be trusted.

She has declared WAR against intelligence! What a complete joke! Only 3 more days until we send this arrogant, hate spewing, dim witted, devisive, ignorant, moose killer back to her igloo! I am not sure what is worse? Her or the 32% of the morons that think she is a good choice!! I wonder, if Florida is Failin's Country maybe she would support them seceeding from the union just like her friends in Alaska?

This Nut has defected and stabbed her Boss in the Back even BEFORE she got the Job!!

WOW who in their right minds would trust her with ANYTHING???

Now if she would also find a way to remove her own name ...she might have something.

If you reporters have nothing better to do than following this loser I suggest that you look for other employment.

WHERE ARE YOUR MEDICAL RECORD PALIN?

Obama should use this rally as a scare tactic! Palin is a footstep away in becoming president. Now that is scary!

Of course. I think we all now know what her motives are. Palin, 2012? Laughable.

Did you not see the people standing behind her wearing McCian and Palin white t-shirts?

she got dreams of her own people. I knew it.

hmm someone preparing for 2012 just incase? this is the most awkward campaign duo I've ever seen.

It's staggering that McCain's name is nowhere. I guess the Repub's have given up the presidency and instead are focusing on trying to keep a few congressional seats.

This is what you get when you get a pitbull with lipstick...the lipstick eventually wears off and all you get is a crazy baboon.

It is McCain/Palin all the way.

McCain/Palin 2008.

She is mind-boggling unbelievable.

They're trying to cleanse the McCain-Palin ticket of the McCain????

THE- – - – MOST- – - – RIDICULOUS- – - – TICKET- – - – IMAGINABLE!

l will vote obama 08. sarah go back to alaska

Reality is Reality.

I'm so sick of Joe the Plumber. McCain and Palin see him as God-like. lol lol lol......Morons.

If you win McCain you better hire a full time food taster. You sold your soul to the devil and now you have to live with it.

Unpersoned....a fitting finale for a disposable hero.

Pallin is simply looking out for her future by forgetting the great man who put her where she is today. Cheney would not have even done that!!!!!!

Nice suit Sarah........that old thing has been hanging in your closet for years, right?......."you betcha".
It's amazing how so many have been fooled, but more, how many have been easily led.
OBAMA*BIDEN for a new direction.

Lets try to make everyone believe McCain is the VP nominee.

Johnny, you should have vetted Palin!
The Baracudar has come home to roost!

Palin is a loser just as McCain is

"therealmccain.com" Check it out!

Are Republicans already distancing themselves from Senator McCain and banking on Governor Palin to lead the herd?

Maybe she thinks Bush or no show joe is coming?! Jokers!

Palin must be getting ready for the 2012 election.

How can Palin suggest that Obama is a socialist when she taxed Alaska's oil companies and gave over $3,000 dollars to each person in Alaska?

But I must thank Palin for awarding the $40B pipeline project to TransCanada. Its nice for Alaska to outsource jobs to Canada!

This dimwit is completely out of control!

Vote Obama / Biden or don't open your mouths for the next four years. If you think things are bad now, just let McCain and Palin get in.

Florida likes Palin!

Palins Name Wont Be Found Anywhere After Tuesday Either!

McCain thrown under the bus by his own running mate and party. How very, very sad.

Too funny! Palin is running for 2012 and leaving McCain in the dust! ROFL!

Wow! She's ignoring McCain even before they're elected. How long before her incredible arrogance and stupidity get her put off the ticket and into jail?

When Sarah can draw large crowds, who needs McCain? And while she complains that she's unfairly targetted by the news media, she's the only candidate who didn't have to share her medical records with voters.

funny.
she dont need old john anymore!

Florida will never be Palin country!

CNN enjoy the money now ,because after Wed. I will no longer watch your programing or visit your site.You have made a mockery of this election with your lying polls and your moderators.

The "Whack Job" Palin (words from McCain camp, not mine) is "going rogue" even deeper. It wouldn't surprise me to think that she believes she's running for president, not vice president.
Why is anybody even taking this woman seriously? She's already been convicted of "abusing power" while governor. She's not even in D.C. yet and she's already corrupt. What about all that money she spent on taking family members here and there and the bid-rigging scandal involving a pipeline contract that benefit only one firm –one politically connected to Palin. And the McCain camp makes fun of Chicago-style politics??? What about Alaskan corruption. What about Palin's good friend Ted Stevens?? Guilty on ALL counts against him.
This is pathetic.

Isn't it obvious? If she loses this year she's setting up for a 2012 run. I think her negatives with independants and Democrats are so high, she'd probably never win the Republican nomination. I'd never vote for her in a million years – no matter what she says. The real her is already out there, and I don't like what I see – way to right-wing.

Palin is her own boss mccian is not one for her

Not surprising. Her personal ambition is now greater than her own party. She probably could have a better argument as one of the future republican leaders but her own personal affairs will absolutely deter that ambition. Her role model image as pundits says does not equate with her achievement as a mother; her oldest and second children does not represent a good result as role model (teen pregnancy and a son reportedly forced to join the military due to juvenile acts).

Palin is an insult to this country and clearly reflects McSenile's senile judgement. She is simply not qualified to be VP, a breath away from being the president. Palin managed to stitch together a college degree from various backyard nondescript colleges and eloped to get married to her non college educated husband, after she got pregnant outside wedlock. Christian values indeed! Look how she got to be mayor. Back stabbed her benefactor, the former mayor. To become governor, she again back stabbed her benefactor, the former governor. She is already tending towards backstabbing McSenile with her plans for 2012. She is a vindictive and petty minded idealogue.No wonder she was found to have abused her office in Alaska. When Pfailing opens her mouth, she spews hate and nothing else. Please let us help Pfailin to keep her hate and vindictiveness to Alaska where they can be frozen forever. VOTE OBAMA!

Seems she is running her own campaign.

lol. this is just hilarious.

palin for 2016...!

Gives a new meaning to going "Rogue".
She is definitely ready to be President "OR"... "OR"?! Mr McCain, hindsight is really 20/20. Now you know how Ceasar felt when Brutus stabbed him in the back
Is this circus over yet?

Vote for "THAT ONE"

Shows she has her own agenda. Whos using who!

IM SURE THERE ARE SEVERAL INSTANCES WHERE OBAMA WISHES OL JOE BIDENS NAME DIDNT COME UP TOO. BUT THAT IS SURE TO BE WRITTEN IN THE BIDEN BIG PICTURE BOOK OF PSALMS WHEN THEY REWRITE THE CONSTITUTION AND THE GOOD BOOK.

Hopefully Adam Putnam, the spolied rich vitriolic effitist, will go down with the rest of them....

That's rather alarming isn't John McCain the one who elevated her
to popularity in her party. he's already been forgotten that's gratitude for you!! Sarah your just so dog garn sweet

This women is so divisive she even divides her own followers from John McCain's! can't fault her ambition but i can cringe at the wake of destruction behind her

Hmmm, is there an agenda there? You betcha... Not surprising for a campaign that's been nothing but a self-serving pit of negativity that they'd eventually turn to eating each other alive and putting their own interests first.

Hope and change... Obama '08

palin/putnam 2012? or putnam/palin 2012 either way scary. I know adam and i have always liked him because simply put he is very very smart but it kills me he would embrace this idiot sarah for political reasons. I still love you adam but how could you man, you know tthis woman has no real grasp of the issues. I have always believed you will be our president oneday, please stay above this crap going on right now please.

Boy, if I were John McCain, I would be afraid to turn my back on this woman. She is flat out scary & untrustworthy. Her personal ambition seems to transcend this election– she is more concerned with advancing HERSELF to some higher office no matter what it takes.

Folks, this woman is the most hateful bigoted shrill shrew I've ever heard on the campaign trail. Initially I just thought she was a clueless nitwit... now I'm more concerned she's potentially dangerous. I don't think she has any conscience whatsoever. I wouldn't trust her as far as I could throw her..

How many grandkids DO you have???????????????????

So many of you say that McCain was a totally different war hero then we are witnessing today. It is sad that he was in the Senator for 26 years, and by running for President and picking a VP (that has shown in Alaska she cares only for what she and her family can get without being qualified enough to earn them without a wink or a smile of inducement) that has caused the rest of American voters to see his campaign filled with divisive and mug slinging hate in the eyes of American people whom he say he fought for. When it is all said and done, Palin will want to be seen as the REAL American (not long TRYING to divide Alaska from USA) excluding McCain all together. Yes, I was upset he choose any woman to bait other woman, I just wish he would have picked a educated (6 yrs. for a 4 yr. degree isn't bright), Strong political and Foreign Policy background and ALSO had that special motherly inner wishing about herself... For her to stand for equal rights for woman, TEACH our children OUR Country IS about LOVING each other, ALL diversity of PEOPL.

Before this ELECTION I taught them about loving everyone regardless of race, and I will continue to do so. I refused to let my kids watch any rally of McCain's and especially Palin's. Hate and Prejudice is a disease!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Guess what. Palin's brain wasn't seen anywhere near the rally either.

I guess they were confused. They didn't know if they should put McCain on there or Joe "The Plumber".

LOL I think John McCain better hire himself a food taster......

I am not surprise. John McCain has played out.

Is it just me, thinking that Saran Palin is a bimbo? Or, are all those who are cheering for this airhead, is just that dumb or still stuck in the back woods.

Why should this surprise anyone? Sarah Palin is a diva and a whack job (comments from McCain officials). Nothing is more dangerous then the combination of being extremely power hungry and not too bright.
I laugh when right wingers say she is the "real thing." What does that mean? The woman has lied to everyone in her state and to Americans. She has spent more time bashing others then talking about what ideas she might have for our country. This is the real thing? This is Christian? Not at my church!

Okkkkkk then why is there a picture of Obama at the top of the article... did the content editor take off this weekend CNN????

wow.. now that says something, his vice president is out campaigning and the powers that be, thought it best not to mention the actual presidential candidates name...

he lost control weeks ago, and now it is just so sad to see his own party abandoning him they way they are.... tossing john mccain in the trash, and sarah palin in the recycling bin for further exploitation.

obama/biden 08

Ridiculous!!

Vote!! Take the day off work and vote, then watch a friend's baby and help them vote! Whatever it takes... it will take all of us to stop the Republican Machine.

Palin is Dangerous: She is the death of woman's rights, environmentalism, and the separation between church and State!!!!

Why is there a picture of Obama on this story? He isn't even mentioned in the article. Just another example of CNN's political endorsement.

Campaign: Obama didn't know aunt's immigration status? Just like he didn’t know wright speeches were so controversial , rezko was a mafia tug and obama didn’t know that he started his own political career in his living room , that his beautiful wife that hates America , and ayers was a terrorist. Ho yes he didn’t know? another obama lie.

its a palin mcCain campaing so please stop acting surprise.

Who cares! They are both idiots, one just happened to be a POW. The other, well, no comment. Her interview speaks for itself.

Sarah Palin sure thinks alot of herself doesn't she? Too bad, nobody else does.......she's a fool.

And so the backstabbing begins....she is trying to distance herself from him no doubt for her own run in 2012. The only reason they didn't completely pummel her was the fact that she was a woman and the long battle with Hillary. Had that never happened, they would have slammed her left and right and made the joke out of her that she is.

As much as they talk about Obama, this woman is so fundamentally weak in all aspects that it's laughable. She talks a lot and says nothing. I can't wait till she is sent packing back to the ice block she came from.

She is the last person to talk about Phony. I'm sure she's sad that she had to give up the clothes and special make-up people. "Ordinary" and "Maverick" my behind....she is no different.

Sarah palin is showing her true self....FRAUD

McCain should have dumped her along time ago. She destroyed the Republican ticket. Tough stuff, she ain't.
GO OBAMA!

The location is fitting. Palin is indeed on a fantasy flight.

There's something with the picture in this article...

Not Surprised!

Why should anyone be surprised that McCain's name isn't mentioned. The tension between the two of them is obvious. They don't even agree on policy issues. She wants a Constitutional Amendment on marriage, he doesn't. She wants to go in to Pakistan if we have good intelligence on the location of Bin Laden; he doesn't. She took all that earmark money while she was Mayor and Governor. He's against that. She believes that God is punishing the Jews by sending Palistinian suicide bombers into Israel. I know he doesn't believe that. They are not a team and never will be. He showed his lack of judgement by picking her.

It is obvious from the smears of Obama supporters and the left that Obama is much more afraid of Sarah Palin than they are of McCain–she is the future and has already been vetted on a larger scale than Obama. There is no more dirt to dig on her. They can't find anything and they have scraped the bottom of the barrel. On the other hand, things come out daily about Obama. He should start getting very nervous for 2012 if he manages to squeak out a win this time.

This is shocking, but not all that surprising.

She is like an olympic figureskater. People just crowd around her waiting for her to fall on her cosignment shop dress wearing butt.

McCain better watch out if he is elected. I am all for McCain, but I can't stand Palin. I fear that she is only using him to become president herself...and if they don't win, I will bet wih anyone that she will undoutedly blame everything on him. She did it to Stevens and others who helped her to be where she is today. She uses you and then throws you away..a parasite. I think she is the biggest mistake McCain ever made in his political career. But I guess, he is using her too. I can't believe he sold his moderate republican soul. Please McCain, go back to how you were. We miss you!

Such a maverick she's bucking her boss. I know who's interest she has at heart. Not americans' , but her own.

So there you are. Typical Sarah Palin strategy for her future career within the Right Wing Christian Evangelical base of the Republican party. Not so subtile suggestion that the Presidental candidate is irrelevent and the future is SARA PALIN. What a political slime machine.

Who's running for President on that ticket??? hmmmm.

And so it has begun...

ZOMG!!!

Oops!

The repubs campaign is so bizare this year, no wonder why they are going down in a hand basket.

No more repubs this year, landslide Obama/Biden 08/12.

Sarah Palin for VP. Georgia has her name all over the place. Especially Atlanta, GA.

HA HA HA

John who?

So what, maybe mcCain even doesn't want to be linked to Palin's Hitler like qualities. And doesn't want his name and her infamous one together. Hey audience for Palin: kill anyone lately! You racists nutjobs!

Humm, watch out McCain. She did step over two other old guys to get where she is, what's one more?

Yes my friends Palin is gearing up for2012 stabbing ole mccain right in the back sad!

This is a clear indication of a city divided against itself. What do you expect? Republican supporters are keeping blind eyes as if they do not know what is happening in the party. Voters is it the cohesion and the organizational masterpiece you expect from your presidential team?

the exodus has began. She kick mccain to the curb.

Where are her medical records, anyway?

She getting all mavericky on the moron that picked her!

Ha Ha. With Palin as her VP, McCain does not need Obama to sink his ship.

Diva! I just hope the dingbats that vote for her remember Gramps is the one on the top of the ticket.

Were you voters not aware Phailling Moose thinks she is running for President?
Easy to see she hates standing by the old Phart.
The news is she is running in a ditch .
Her voice OMG who could listen to that screaming nonsence and she knows nothing about the world problems just hate,lies,witchcraft religion.
Lets send her back to her best friend the Felon .

I pity my McCain. But at the same time he thought Obama was the kind of guy he can gamble with. What comes to a man is equal to that man.

Looks like the race for 2012 has begun!

McCrazy is being replaced and he isn't even gone from the top of the ticket!

Wow, Palin has her eyes set on one goal alright

She's not doing this "for naught."

This is really sad when your VP out shines the top of the ticket.

Where are Palins medical records? CNN do your job. Report on this.

I noticed that myself. It's like she is distanceing herself for McCain.

Palin has gone rogue. She knows the game is over and has started another one. MaCain made the worst mistake of his campaign by picking Palin.

Hmmm – team player, Hockey Mom?

What the....? Who is actually running for president here? Apparently Bush AND McCain are both so damaged that even Sarah Palin doesn't want to campaign with either of them. You betcha!

Getting a headstart on her 2012 run. She won't be happy until she not only splits the country but also the GOP itself. You betcha.

President Barack Hussein Obama

What a wonderful sound.

Voted early to be sure mine is counted.

It is actually scary how some people could still think positive of Palin and showcase her like a queen. All in the name of their political party and no consideration into her being a complete idiot.

NON-STORY. . .

SLOW DAY CNN?

Y A WN

OBAMA/BIDEN 2008

Now thats interesting......

This is proof that she is not satisfied with the VP...She wants the top spot, watch out McCain...

Obama/Biden08/12

I think she already started her 2012 campaign. Can't she wait atleast until Nov 5th morning when McCain goes back to AZ into retirement.

Oops...

Has she given up and is now focusing on her own future political career?? Hilarious.

Betraying the top of ticket. How Mavericky! Sounds like Palin/Putnam 2012.

Will someone tell mccain. This is so sad, mccain is old and out of touch and palin and company is taking total advange of him. Is there something strange about cindy mccain, does she like johnny or palin. I think todd should make sure that he is still the first dude.

What does that tell ya???

Obama/Biden 2008

Can't wait for her to tick off Cindy – we'll get to see a good old-fashioned Alaskan style cat fight.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

If they do win... John's presidency will be short lived that is for sure. This woman is dangerous to him and our country!

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

He'd better hire a food taster. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha

She's not just a power-abuser, she's power hungry.

Obama/Biden '08
