WASHINGTON (CNN) - Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin will make multiple campaign appearances on behalf of Sen. Saxby Chambliss next week in Georgia, serving as the political closer for the GOP senator who is battling to win a second term.
This is Palin’s first campaign appearance on behalf of another Republican candidate since losing her bid to become the nation’s first woman to serve as vice president.
Palin will attend a fundraiser on Sunday night, then appear at multiple campaign stops on Monday in an effort to rally the GOP base to turn out to vote for Chambliss. The incumbent Republican is facing a strong challenge from Democrat Jim Martin. A runoff is scheduled for next Tuesday, after neither candidate received the 50 percent plus one vote needed to win on Election Day.
Palin is the latest high-profile politician to head to Georgia to campaign for either Chambliss or Martin. Former President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore have campaigned for Martin, while Republican presidential nominee John McCain, former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney have appeared on behalf of Chambliss. Today, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani will campaign for the Republican senator.
Nick Ayers, executive director of the Republican Governors Association, said that it made sense for Palin to help Chambliss in the days leading into the run-off because he noted that GOP governors are “still very popular in the party.”
“She is going to bring a lot of energy and enthusiasm to this run-off,” said Ayers, a close Palin confidante. “She is widely popular in Georgia, and I could not envision a stronger closer for Saxby in this election.”
Georgia is one of two Senate contests that remain unresolved as the dust continues to settle from an Election Day that saw Republicans lose at least seven Senate seats, 20 House seats and control of the White House. Republicans must win at least one of the two remaining unresolved Senate races to prevent Democrats from reaching 60 seats in the chamber and thus achieving a filibuster-proof majority. Minnesota, the other unsettled Senate race, is currently in a recount.

Oh, yah! Palin to campaign for Saxby. Should be good. I predict some record-shattering dull-witted comment from her this time. And maybe she'll make that comment while animals are being skinned alive behind her. Rousing? You betcha. Doggone it. Isn't Sarah Palin ripping off Sheriff Marge Gunderson of "Fargo"?
Chambliss is going to run away with this election unless, of course, the Liberals find a way to steal it like they are stealing Minnesota.
Mr 911 and Airhead wow guess these Gop is really in Self Destruct mode they really want to stay dead for decades!
She'll be serving up moose chili along with her famous co-star "Joe the Turkey Farmer"! Everyone's invited, bring the kids!
Oh thank goodness... things were starting to get really boring... maybe she can take the stage and club a baby harp seal or something...
I sure am glad I don't live in Georgia..........
The circus can always use another clown.
Oh lord here we go again. This people never learn a lesson.
If you want to win an election you don't put dunb politician like PALIN on the campaign trail. I feel so sorry for this guy running on the GOP ticket in Georgia.
He just lost million of votes asking Palin to campaign for him. All Palin will bring is energize democrat voters to go to the polls.
He is as dumb as Palin
Why would the Republicans send McCain, Palin, and Giuliani to Georgia. They are three losers!
I hope their luck rubs off on Chambliss.
Well Palin just don't know how to lay low .... I hope the outcome will be the same as when she campaign with McSame hehehehe gee is this the best the GOP can do? God Bless them all....
Well, if there is one dirtier politician than Sarah Palin in the USA, it would have to be Saxby Chambliss. What a pair of lying sinners. Those who are waiting for the coming of the Anti-Christ, keep an eye on this woman...
Go home Sara, the Americann public does not want you to hold national office.
It's surprising that Alaskans are so ignorant as to vote for a partisan fool with an ambitious heart that will do or say anything for power or money while claiming to be a Christian.
Doesn't she have a state to run? The folks in Alaska have to be getting a bit angry that she seems interested in everything but Alaska.
For the love of god, can this woman go away please. Why you were on the national stage to begin with baffles me. Go shoot something, but please – just go away. Obviously no one wants you. Your like the little kid in dodgeball, that was picked last. Try something else.
Aargh! That's all we need. Another mouthy has-been trying to convince us here in Ga that it would be better to keep useless Saxby than to give Martin a chance to do some work. I tell ya, if I find her up on my porch with some pamphlets, I'm siccing my dawg on her. You betcha, wink wink.
With the bunch of losers the GOP have had campaigning it should be a slam dunk for Martin. Now with the wicked witch of the North stumping for Chambliss it's becoming an IQ test for Georgians.
It is difficult to believe the GOP still think this idiot is an up and coming member of their party. Surely only the wackos and extremists would be influenced by her appearance.
Hope she has time for her Alaskan population... After the gas prices have gone down... profit from the oil companies will shrink... and Stevens isn't there any more for the EAR MARKS... for those roads that go no where.... but I am sure she knows what she is doing.
Can someone please tell me why.
Let's stop this madness
I guess the GOP wants to get more mileage out of all the clothes they bought for Palin.
Apparently, being governor of Alaska is a pretty simple job since it seems to require little or no time on Palin's part to fulfill her responsibilities.
Palin was the main reason for McCain's loss and will surely do the same for Chambliss. In one of Palin's interviews she still talks negative about President-elect Obama as she did on the campaign trail and she needs to apologize. The GOP still doesn't get it and Palin will continue to destroy them.
This lady just can't get enough of the spotlight, however ambition does not equate to intellegence
Excellent – this should help Chambliss lose.
WHY are we being subjected to this person still?
Oh, well, maybe it's a sign of the times. One person can destroy an entire political party, and it looks like Palin is the one to bury the GOP. You'd think that they'd grow brain cells at some point and realize this woman is a babbling idiot.
Why won't the media let this woman disappear of the face of the earth. Well I guess if she is in on the campaign trail then that surely seals the deal for the democrats.
The people of Georgia would be wise NOT to re-elect Saxby Chambliss to the Senate. Obama is putting a great team in place to get the economy back on track and needs all the HELP he can get..,.NOT HINDERANCE!
You can expect more race-baiting, hate-mongering from this rethuglian sycophant, pretty much along the lines of "he's palling around with terrorists."
Ok...so here we go again. What's the attire, hoods and capes or just veils that mask the truth?
I thought someone promised us that we wouldn't have to see and hear her after the election..... empty promise!
With a Turkey in one hand and a shotgun in the other,yelling yeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaa.
Auuugh! I am so tired of her! America is so tired of her! She is the reason John McCain lost the White House, and she will be the reason Georgia Republicans lost their seat!
Who is taking care of her special needs baby while she is advancing her political career?
I thought that when they lost she would go away....now we are seeing her more than ever! What do we do to get her to go away..please someone tell me what to do and I will do it!!!!
Maybe she can do for Chambliss like she did for McCain. Turkey anyone?
Will this woman please just go away.
Who is taking care of this woman's kids?
Why have four or five kids if you are not going to raise them and take care of them?
This woman is so vain that she will put herself ahead of what is best for her children.
If Chambliss loses he can blame Palin. Why won't they let her fade away...
You know, after that last bit with the turkeys in the background, this woman is just plain gross.
Back to Alaska, Palin, I can't imagine you will help anybody out with their campaign.
Gross.
Can do for Sen Chambliss what she did for Sen McCain? Or is she now angling to become his supporter, then do what she did in Alaska, and send him off to an investigation so she can step in as the next GOP senator in Georgia? That clever Sarah Palin, she is outfoxing all of us....
Then the Dem. candidate has it made. This governor can suck the life out on anybody's campaign. A favor to ask; would you please refuse to mention her name for, oh six months maybe? That would allow me to heal and her to finish shrinking up and blowing away. Thanks in advance.
Senator Chambliss will lose for sure by having Palin campaign. Palin is such a loser. Did you see the video of Palin where she pardoned a turkey then did an news interview with the turkeys getting their heads cut off behind her. Idiot.
He must really want to win. LOL
I hope the citizens of Alaska do not mind her straying away from her day job after the last long absence. I cannot believe that this woman would be a draw for this candidate or any other candidate. Every time she opens her mouth, more nonsense spews forth. Why doesn't she just stay in Alaska and do the job she was elected to do there? I'm totally sick of the sight and sound of this woman personally. She is a very divisive figure–people either totally love her or totally hate her. Guess what camp I'm in?
The ignorant fool needs to disappear from the media.
Wonder how she will smear the Democrat and lie about herself.
That's funny. Remember how she went on and on about how much work she has to do as governor and that it far outwieghed anything Obama had experienced. She sure has found time in her busy life to keep jetting down from Alaska to put her face in front of the camera.
Please just stay home I have a headache already...
Maybe Palin's unwed daughter will campaign along side John McCain and Fred Thompson's second wives, and Guilliani's third wife in a kind of Republican family values parade for Chambliss.
GOP needs to fire up that Christian Coalition base!
It would be real loss for Replicans if Sarah and Rudy started campaigning. The GOP has lost big time especially because of Sarah Palin and her campaigning does nothing to help. Why doesn't Sarah just keep her mouth shut – when she speaks she becomes a laughing stock.
I thought the Sarah Palin Show was cancelled on Nov. 4, 2008. I guess you guys are gonna keep her in syndication. UGH!
If Georgia follows behind the suggestion of Palin, it will prove just how backwards the state is. She reminds of us all the wrong things...
She said every mean and vile lie she could against Obama ... from what I hear ... that's how Chambliss beat Max Cleland in the last election.
I can't image that anyone that lauds those that have served in the military ....... or those that have given of their body for this country .... could EVER endorse Saxby Chambliss .... but some how both McCain and Palin DID.
Hypocrits....
When Sarah Palin heard that McCain met with Obama last week, she accused McCain of palling around with terrorists.
Georgia: I'm from Colorado and very happy to see our state go blue. I hope you will seriously consider coming along with us by making this small first step. Community organization is vital to help our country unite in our greatness. Chambliss will only continue to divide and misinform for his own purposes. Please vote for Martin. Please.
It is sad commentary that anyone can still take this woman seriously.
It is also a slap in the face to the many women who would be better representatives of the conservative republican positions.
This is just what the docor ordered for Jim, with Sarah campagning for Saxby this should guarntee a Democrat victory.Thank you Sarah and Merry Christmas
Mark, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
Now we see Palins role in the GOP strategy: trot out the attack bimbo to energize the idiots. And the right wing mental midgets will persist in their Limbaugh-fueled willful ignorance and fawn all over her, celebrating her mediocrity as someting they can identify with.
Glad to hear this news Palen's appearance in Georgia will do more good for Martin than it will for Chambliss!!!
Meanwhile, back in Alaska, a village is missing an idiot.
Palin and Chambliss would make a good team running for the Presidency in 2016, just what the country will need after the great Democratic years we will experience. They are just about the two worse persons that the Republicans can ever come up with.
Really???? she is back on the trail? i hope the GOP lose this run off
I THOUGHT GERALDINE FERRARO WAS THE FIRST FEMALE VICE PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE BACK IN 1984 RUNNING WITH WALTER MONDALE. FORGET ABOUT HER?
Shouldn't she be working on governing Alaska?
Great, now she can be responsible for a second Republican losing their election!!!!
Aw Jeez, why doesn't this woman just go away.
Help make wedding arrangements for your pregnant daughter before the kid is born, or stay home and bake some cookies.
Fix your own family mess before you try to save the GOP.
Trig is the only norman one in that clan.
You go Sarah! Once the ridiculous media bias about you subsides, the entire public will see clearly the strong and convicted American leader that you are.
Doesn't she have anything to do in Alaska? Then again they're probably glad to ship her back to the lower 48.
STAY HOME TRAILER TRASH.
Alright! We'll see if she can ignite the base, or if she's a political disease.
Explain to us how this is "leaving behind the campaign, supporting the incoming administration and getting back to focus on issues facing Alaskans"
$10 bet right now she goes negative on Jim Martin (who Gov. Palin probably wouldn't know who he is if he were standing in front of her) as Barack Obama and Democrats in general.
Give it rest. Everybody though 2 years was too long for an election campaign and now Gov. Jindal and Gov. Palin are trying to make 4?
If I were an Alaskan, I'd be pretty pee-o'd that this Bimbo is spending so much time doing things OTHER than being the state's governor. Sarah is not welcomed in Georgia, despite her fans from the evangelical radical right that rings the state like the Perimeter does.
The kiss of death.
Will the GOP never learn.
Even National Inquirer avoids her.
Let the barrage of ridicule begin in 3...2...1...
OMG I swear this woman is just annoying as I don't know what! Doesn't she have a job to do like Governor of Alaska- doesn't she have a family to take care of- like 5 kids- why doesn't she go do her JOBS and stop annoying the rest of America with her nagging presence!??
I thought the day Obama won the Presidency her annoying voice would STOP- however people keep talking to her...why??? Its like the annoying chinese dude from American Idol- he was horrible but people kept interviewing him and building him up pretending to like him when we all knew his voice was like nails on a chalk board- this is the EXACT same thing!
The reincarnated "Jim Jones" has arrived.
For the love of God! NOW I am getting sick of this woman. I never gave her a good thought during her campaign with Sen. McCain, but this is getting ridiculous. Doesn't she have a state to run? Kids to raise? A husband to attend to? Something? Anything?
Palin Power !!!
um...no one even likes her. she got beat by a community organizer!
Good for Palin, she can help Chambliss lose like she helped McCain lose.
And here I thought the article referred to the Republic of Georgia that Russia recently invaded. Was sorta hoping that Sarah planned to walk there via the Arctic Ocean. Oh well, maybe she'll be able to help Chambliss the same way she helped McCain.
**yawn** Who's going where? Oh. Yeah. Got it. **yawn**
This is GREAT news...
for Jim Martin!!!
Why are we still talking about her? Maybe she should take care of her own state that she was voted to do. I doubt taxpayers want foot the bill for her to support her own agenda disguised as support for another member. She’ll do whatever it takes to stay in the spotlight.
Yeah...more Sarah Palin....that's great.
Now I can experience more love and tolerance from all the Unity proclaimers of the Obama camp.
Or maybe I can incite a personal attack, or best of all, more censorship from CNN itself.
All DEms and sane Repulicans who want to save their party need to make her effort fail. If it fails she will disappear.
Remember what this idiot did for mccain, are you sure you want her to campaign for you senator? I could care less if chambliss wins but this is so laughable. This woman just continues to make a fool out herself, not mention the stupid people who keep bringing her back, GO AWAY!!!!
Her family needs her more than the country. It is better if she goes back to school and educate herself more in general knowledge and the world. Beauty and shooting around innocent wildlife for pleasure does not make U a good politician you need some brains also. God save US from her.
WOW!! This goes to show that the Republicans are in disarray. I just don't think she can help Sen Chambliss. I'm a Democrat, but there are pleny of other Republicans who should be working for Sen Chambliss than Gov Palin. I really don't understand what the Republican Party sees in her. Yes, she's a Washington outsider, yes, she's folksy, but for me, I'd rather not see a "folksy" person in a national office. I may not agree with VP Cheney's policies, but I'd rather see him talking with a foreign dignatary than Gov Palin any day. If there are independents leaning toward Chambliss, I just don't think she can sway them.
Here we go again.
This is the voice for the republican party Gov. Palin, former Mayor Rudy, former Gov. Mitt how desperate is this party. I see why they lost. These are certainly mean spirited former candidates who preach divisiveness, fear and bigotry in hope to trun out those who think like them.
By all means, Ms. Palin, please hit the campaign trail. That will help seal the deal for Martin being elected.
Perfect. Sarah and Rudy. One thing about Republican that amazed me is their inability to learn. They should learn something about the 2006 & 2008 election: stupidity and intimidation does not go well with Americans. Why would they keep putting those losers on the trail? I can't wait for the 2nd defeat.
Oh, no.......will that woman never go away? And, for those of you who are going to respond that we're "afraid of her" - not hardly. She's simply annoying, at best!
who cares. leave this woman burried in alaska pleaseeeeeee
Palin – what part about go away don't you understand – you almost single handily cost McCain the election – have you figured out the Africa question yet ???!!!
That's a sure recipe for defeat.
Give it up, Sarah! You have proven you are neither qualified nor suitable, no pun intended, for public office. Go back to college and learn to speak and write correctly.
Best way I know to get another Democratic seat in the Senate. Send Sarah.
The Repubs just gotta do their best to get enough seats to stop any progress.
UGH......Sarah please go away. Funny how Republicans can't realize that Sarah Palin is one of the main reasons McCain lost the election- so she's now the future of the party?
Should leave Palin in Alaska the more she talks the worst it gets. Maybe, her hair should be blonde!
I like Plain,she has a libertarian streak to her, but I am very disappointed she is going to campaign for " SUXBEE".
Suxby is a joke, and that coming from a right-leaning Georgian.
He calls himself a "fiscal conservative": like most if not all neocons, Hucktardians, etc., he's a big spender, he just prefers to borrow the $ for his spending, vs. raising taxes.
I opted to sit out the runoff, neither Suxby nor Martin is "fiscally fit" enough to earn my vote.
I voted for the Libertarian Allen Buckley, he was the only fiscally-responsible candidate in the race, one of very few running nationwide who actually believes in fiscal responsibility.
Chambliss would do better if he had told all those losers to stay away. With his redneck friends in Georgia the chance is better for him to be re-elected.
All those big whigs from the Repuke party that criticized a community organizer on national TV daily was slaughter by that community organizer on 4 Nov. These guys and gals can't see through the forest for the trees.
Now with the wicked witch from the 57th state in the north coming to help his chance for winning has been reduced.
Go...Go...Go... Martin
Palin should stay home I guess she wants to be the leader of the GOP.
Maybe she will think she is running for US Senator.
She really wants the power.
Are you kidding?
I hope Jim Martin doesn't have any terrorist friends to pal around with.
woohoooo.....bring him down just like you did the McCain campaign...
Jim Martin must be smiling. If you're trying to win a tight election, the last thing you should do is bring in a loser with negative popularity numbers. Having Sarah Palin come stump for him is just one more reason why Georgians should kick him out of his seat. We don't need anymore of this fake conservatism.
Are the tax payers of Alaska paying for this political junket?
These politicians need to stop campaigning and do their jobs. This is what Bush was doing the couple of weeks before 9/11. I remeber thinking should'nt he be in Washington doing his job. This is getting sick.
I wonder how the fair citizens of Alaska feel about the continued absence of their supposed leader.
Where's Joe Lieberman? Does he want to be a Democrat or not?
This woman is getting to be annoying. Just go away, please!
Boy these Republicans are slow learners – aren't they? First that mealy-mouthed Plain followed McCain around like a puppy dog and ruined HIS political chances and NOW some numb nut senator in Georgia actually WANTS her to tag along with him and screw up HIS career!
Get a grip on this Rebub's, Plain's name might as well be "Poison", because anyone who gets close to her is destined for failure and ridicule. But what amazes the crap out of me is that anyone could actually want to listen to her for more than a VERY brief introduction!!..... I mean, ya' knowwww?
Meooooooow!!!!!!
How sad is the Republican party when Joe the plumber and Sarah Palin are their superstars?
If you can't find true leaders, how can you change our world?
This is stupendous news: Rudi Guiliana and Sarah Palin campaigning for Chambliss. I hope she won't have any turkeys being butchered over her shoulder, and good luck to the constituency who might surely be persuaded by such heavy hitters to re-elect an individual they already have misgivings and doubts about, which is why Chambliss was not a shoo-in. Win at any cost seems to be the mantra, not what the people need or want.
And her campaigning for him will help him win? GOP is living in a world not inhabited by the rest of Americans
Great, with Palin campaigning , we are bound to lose that seat as well. When are were going to get it, in order for us to win we need to be focus more on the moderate side where there is some intelligence. The more we go to the right the more stupid we look to the people that are voting (which are not conservative right wing nuts). Well, we might as well put a red bow on that senate seat and give it to Martin. Palin is bad for our party.
It's sad that the republicans have sunk so low that they have to rely on a cretin like Palin to campaign for their party.
Why can't that woman just go sit down somewhere?! Doesn't she have business to take care of in Alaska. I feel sorry for that GOP Senator, once people see her – it's over for him!
Gee when is she going back behind closed doors. Enough is Enough with her. she couldn't get McCain Elected, I don't know why anyone would want her as a cheerleader for them even if it is for sen.
YES – YES – YES – YES!!!!! SARAH – SARAH – SARAH – SARAH
We have missed you girl!!! Welcome back – it is boring not seeing you around!!!
Palin 2012
OMG, please go away already
Palin is becoming a defining issue for the Republican party - is it the party who dictates what the voters will get in terms of a candidate, or will the candidate that the voters want be allowed to rise in the Republican party? The political advisors have to love her - a pretty face that can spit out cliches, and a vapid head that won't try to interfere with the political agenda of the king makers once elected to office. (Sound like any other Republican leaders you know?) The sooner the Republicans let go of this mentality and encourage real leaders to rise and take the reigns as candidates the better off they'll be.
Wow, she really DOES NOT KNOW WHEN TO SIT DOWN.
Don't forget to drag the baby along – what's his name, Prop?
PLEASE keep yourself in Alaska Sarah Palin! You know those Georgia hicks will LOVE her.
Well, everyone was asking for it, now they've got it. Palin campaigning for Chambliss. Mr. Chambliss has to be one of the most disgusting politicians ever spawned given his treatment of a former injured war hero opponent who's name I can't recall. Anyway, if Palin is the closer, we can only hope Chambliss loses. She will definitely rally her base in Georgia – the redneck, uneducated, bigoted, fearful, fundamentalists who have more in common with the Taliban than mainstream Christianity. Oh well, they are probably ignorant enough in Georgia to elect Chambliss the Troll and drool all over Palin in the process. This is definitely proof of Georgia's educational quality.
Seriously, no one cares about Palin. Even though your article is only 3 short paragraphs long, I won't even bother reading it.
If I was Saxby Chambliss I'd tell her thanks but no thanks.
THIS IS THE FACE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. 46% OF AMERICA ARE STUPID IDIOTS. GLAD I DONT HAVE TO LIVE AROUND THEM.
I thought she had to stay in Alaska and train as the lead DOG in the Iditarod Race!
...I bet Sen. Chambliss is THRILLED about that!
Why won't she just go away? No one had ever heard of her before being nominated and now she's everywhere. Newsflash lady, people did not vote for McCain because of you and now you're going to hurt this person's chances, cause I'm sure you will say something to blow it for him. It's obvious that you've been bit by the limelight bug and you just can't get it out of your system. Please, don't you have a moose to stuff or some hotdogs to grille? Please crawl back in the hole you came from and stay there for the rest of your term. You betcha, most people are sick of hearing and looking at ya!
The Alaskan Governor needs to go somewhere, sit down, and be quiet. She would be doing the Country a favor.
That's right Sarah. Let it happen for the Democrats.. Thank you in advance.....I'm not sure who keeps letting her out of her cage but we need new security.....
SWEET ! ! NOW THE QUEEN OF GIBERISH CAN COST ANOTHER HIGH PROFILE REPUBLICAN HIS POST. LOL. IT'LL HAPPEN, YOU BETCHA !
Good for her, the libs think they own the world, LOL!
Sarah Palin will be a footnote in political history. Too bad she believes the hype. It was entertaining when she thought she was helping McCain; now it's just sad. Will someone please let he in on the joke?
She is a waist she is only going to hurt even more the GOP ! don't they get it???
Done deal: Jim Martin, next Senator of GA
GOP must be getting desperate to use Sarah Palin. Her involvment in the Chamblis campaign and national politics for that matter is like watching a train wreck.
With Palin, the Republicans have finally found somebody equal to Saxby. Both are show-boaters who just do as they are told. Georgia's gone to blowhards. I'm voting for Martin, he has done something besides rubber stamp the party line.
Please oh please Sarah put Martin over the top.
15 minutes too long.
Why doesn't she give up and stay home with her special needs child. What a mother she is!!
I pray her national career is over, then again she would be a great opponent for Obama in '12.
It is better to be thought a joke, than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.
Between Palin and Rudy, he can kiss it good bye! They will bring the crowds in to see what real losers look like but not the votes.
The Senator's opponent should be very thankful Gov. Palin is appearing for HIS opponent.
Well, Chambliss can kiss this election goodbye
Come on...I hope she opens her mouth and says something that costs him the election. this is bad when you have to ahve her come campaign for you. I would have told her stay in Alaska .
Thank goodness I will be out of town...Rudy? Sarah?
GIVE MY STATE STRENGTH.
Go Jim Martin...GO!!!
One can only hope she helps Chambliss as much as she helped John McCain.
Bring on the hate, Sarah. Let's see how well it works for Sen. Chambliss. Two has got to be a charm.
I wish women wouldn't run for public office, especially if they are attractive. The stress of the campaign and the job wears them down and their faces get wrinkled and old. That is doing a disservice to everyone. If they are attractive they serve a different purpose, let the frumpy ones run for office.
Why are the Republicans trying to lose this election?
That ought to help Martin
Go home Palin. You messed up the GOP enough while you were running for VP. Go back so school and do your job in Alaska!
I am so sick of this lady, she's like a STD that won't go away. For God's sake if she couldn't help Mc Cain then how in the world could she help this other goof ball. She's like a nightmare that you can't awake from. PLEASE GO AWAY, I'M BEGGING YOU.
Don't see how this helps Chambliss much.
He already had the moronic right wing vote pretty much nailed down.
The gift that keeps on giving!
GO Sarah Palin!!
We're pulling for you!
Sarah Palin!!!
She's a bad rash that won't go away!!!
Send Katie Couric of CBS to ask her questions again. This time Palin will definitely disappear for good. This guy Chambliss must be desperate to ask this bimbo to campaign for him.
LOL...she probably read all of the comments on these blogs asking when she was going to campaign for him and thought we were serious. It was a JOKE!!!!!!! We don't want you here in Georgia, stay home.
Go sit Down. Your political career is over. Go back to Alaska, please for the love of God!
Oh, lord, time to refamiliarize myself with the MUTE button on my remote.
Palin will help gather a crowd as a novelty but she will bring no more substance to table nor credit to the candidate than she demonstrated in the Presidential election. We need Chambless but without the political marketing
GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAY GO AWAY! WHAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND YOU IGNORANT, OUT OF TOUCH, RIDICULOUS SNAKE OF A WOMAN!
IT IS SO CLEAR THAT YOU DIDNT WANT THE VEEP SPOT YOU WANTED MCCAINS SPOT YOU JEZEBEL! ARE YOU SURE WHEN THE MINISTER WAS PRAYING FOR YOU AT CHURCH HE WASN'T PUTTING THE DEMON IN YOU INSTEAD OF CASTING IT OUT OF YOU?!
THIS HAS GOT TO STOP! REPUBLICANS PLEASE HELP YOURSELVES AND PUT HER AWAY!
Good grief. Doesn't this dreadful woman have a state to govern or something. I hope her travel expenses are being monitored closely to make sure she isn't using state funds, which at the very least would trigger another ethics violation investigation.
Thank you, Sarah Palin. You'll be a big help to the Democratic party.
I don't understand why a person who does not know history or the Constitution of the United States is someone who would make political news and worst of all would be listened to and taken seriously.
More good news for Martin. Darn right!!
Oh God No! This is a nightmare.
Sarah was not the first nomination for female vice president. There was also a woman under Walter Mondale's ticket as well.
Please, please, please, stop covering Sarah Palin. She is butting in on the President Elect and his plans to help this country. She is doing nothing but trying to steal attention and focus away from a very important administration and get sympathy from the American public. She never has anything helpful or reasonable to say. She doesn't even makes sense! Stop covering this completely baffled regurgitator!
wow,
Martin is palling around with whom?
Palin's 15 mins of fame is over. Wish she would shut up and stay in Alaska.
She has proven to us she has no knowledge or skills, just lucky.
Time for the Repubs to fix their political wheel
Oh Sarah, GO HOME. Your little kids and the pregnant teenager need you..........and just possibly, the people of Alaska who elected you (tho it's hard to tell why). Hopefully she'll turn out to be the proverbial 'kiss of death' for Chambliss, just like she was for McCain. This woman is so unqualified and the media are feeding the stupidity by constantly following her. (that includes you, CNN) She's good looking, for her age, and that's about it. Otherwise people are just watching to see what goofy thing she'll say next. Does that merit all the attention and warrant her to seek a high gov. office? If so, we are a sad, sad country.
I bet Chambliss is THRILLED to have her out stumping for him. That would decide my vote (against him)
And I was so hoping we in the red, red South had dodged the Palin bullet...no such luck. Sad thing is she'll get a heroes welcome.
If that doesn't sink his boat, nothing will. Actually, it may stimulate the democratic base to get out and vote against Chambliss once they get another whiff of her. As I once heard about a former employee, "she's dumb with an attitude".
Good to see her back. Way to go Sarah.
It's bad enough we in Georgia are still subjected to Saxby Shameless' ridiculous TV advertisements. Now HER! Make it all stop!!
VOTE IN GEORGIA on December 2nd for JIM MARTIN.
yay.....she'll lose it for Chambliss just like she did for McCain
OH NO!! Not this idiot once more. Please.. keep Sarah out of the USA .. ok Alaska is part of that, but come on people.. Lets be serious. She is soooo bad.. please NO MORE SARAH!!!
Palin, please stop doing anything but being the governor of Alaska, we are TIRED of you.....we don't care!!!!!!!!!
Doesn't she have a job in Alaska she's been neglecting??
Hopefully Ms. Palin's "midas touch" will have the same effect on Chambliss' campaign that it did on the McCain campaign It is time Mr. Chambliss to receive his just reward, a resounding defeat, after running one of the most sleazy campaigns in history against Max Cleland.
You Go Girl! Team Sarah is now over the 58,000 mark, approaching 100,000, in just a few short weeks. We are with you weather a Democratic, Independent or a Republican in puruit of 'Country First over politics or party!.
Didn't we send her home already? My gosh Mrs. palin, please just go away.
Well doggoneit,......will someone PLEASE tell this woman that she LOST so she can go home and STAY there?
You betcha,.....
Really, its time. Go Away.
OMG, does Sen. Saxby Chambliss want to lose this race?
I can't image anyone would take this woman seriously!
Good...this should make certain that Chambliss looses the run-off and the dems gain yet another seat in the Senate!!!! Why do they keep using this idiot? Maybe Chambliss should talk to McCain before he allows this whack job to represent and worse, speak for him. But the worst thing is we (the intellegent public) have to endure more media coverage of Caribou Barbie. Please make her stay in Alaska!!
Chambliss won his seat by denigrating the patriotism of a man who was maimed in Vietnam. I hope someone asks Palin to find Vietnam on a map.
The Republicans need to quickly reinvent themselves and start campaigning in an all out effort for future elections, including the 2012 presidential election. They need to go on the offense full force and continuously. There should be no more sequential campaigning.
OMG> the Repubs just dont get it!!! ahahha. hope she loses it for him. GOODNESS. Get a GRIP Republicans
She going to be back to governing alaska at any point or is that offically her side job now?
Wow. I guess the presidential election hasn't taught the GOP anything. I just feel sorry for the people of Georgia. The poor souls have to put up with more of her winking and "you betchas".
It is all about Sarah Palin!
Will she be our first female VP or President? You betcha!
This just in ......Jim Martin has won!!!! Thank you Sara Palin!!
Palin should stay in Alaska. The GOP must be desperate if they send a simple-minded, narrow-minded, divisive politician to represent the party in Georgia! If she is the "face of the party", it is time to worry.
I want to know who's going to pay for this useless trip.
Welcome To Georgia Governor Palin. I plan on going to one of the rallies, and Senator McCain got my vote.
Saxby Chambliss is going to lose this election, like he shouldve done years ago to Max Cleeland. That is before he decided to take a page from Rove and co. Politics may be a dirty game, but insinuating a man who has lost limbs on the battlefield for his country is soft on national defense is a new low.
Justice will finally be served because of the idiocy of the GOP. Palin and Guilianni? NOBODY LIKES THESE PEOPLE. GET A CLUE.
GA: punish this idiocy and vote for Jim Martin!
Are you kidding me?
Palin has nothing NEW to add. Dragging along the fresh 'loser' title doesn't help anyone.
Get one of the real GOP governers out there. Jindal, Pawlenty, Samford...
This is GREAT news. GO SARAH! She'll get in there and - ya know - help the Dem win. MAGIC.
Well, if I were a Republican, Palin is all I'd need..... DUH!!!!! The Republican party has yet to learn that brains work better than looks...
Apparently Alaska doesn't need a governor.
Sarah is seldom there.
Apparently the Palin family doesn't need a mom, either.
Sarah is seldom there.
ALL REPUBLICANS SEEM TO BE IN THIS RACE TOWARDS 2012. THEY ALL WANNA BE PRESIDENTS. ITS CRAZY HOW REPUBLICANS HAVE ENDED IN A DISARRAY. ABRAHAM LINCOLN WOULD HAVE BEEN SAD TO SEE HIS PARTY LIKE THIS BUT THEN AGAIN HE WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN MORE SAD TO SEE HIS COUNTRY LIKE THIS.
Why wont this woman go away. Shes a moron. Doesnt she have a state to govern?
I wonder if this will help Chambliss the way she helped McBush. Why on earth would Chambliss want a losing VP candidate who is the poster girl for insane at his side?
What is she going to wear, now that her campaign wardrobe has been donated? Please, for the love of all that is holy, go back to Alaska and find a big rock under which you may crawl.
SHE'S BRINGING JOE THE PLUMBER TO HELP HER TOO! Anyone want freshly killed turkey?
Sarah, please go away. Seriously. Please?
Congratulations Sen. Martin, you just won the senate race in Georgia.
that's where she's best good at.
Senate Campaign.
She is no presidential material.
Palin, a shameless politician.
This women cannot give it up. Maybe I will eat crow in 4 years, but if this women is the best that the Republican Party has to offer, then they are in a situation to reform. I respect the fact that she airs her opinions, but she just does not have what it takes to be in the political arena (changed or unchanged). I know we all want change, and I pray to God that it comes for the sake of this nation, but we do not need this dangerous women anywhere close to a light switch, even more the nuclear button.
Please Palin, give it up already!!
Good! The more she campaigns, the more we are reminded of how awful Republicans remain.
In the words of our IDIOT PRESIDENT, BRING IT ON!
Really? C'mon, I don't understand why anyone would want her speaking on their behalf.
Why won't she go away?!?
Groan.
Sarah Palin = Ignorance Cubed. Saxby Chambliss = Bigotry Cubed.
The United States is doomed if it lets people like this become its political leaders.
Give a mouse a cookie and....
Bring her on. She will remind Dems why they can't forget to vote in this election!
Say Goodbye Saxby...This seals it.
Thanks Sarah!
Is this woman out of her mind? Sarah, we know that it took you 7 consecutive years to finish college, we know that each time you open your mouth, you talk nonsenses. The lack the basics of the U.S. Government and History, never mind the U.S. Constitution and International Affairs. Do us a favor, stay up in Alaska and fire your M-14. For those GOP members who still think this woman was the change, I had the privilege to know her personally; she is one of the dumbest person in the planet.
Good... maybe she can ruin his chances at being elected also.
who cares. palin is a joke. please make it stop. she is a blight and a has-been of the political school of thinking which must be exterminated for our very survival. wise people see that
GOP is JOKE.
She'll probably turn out the largest crowds ever in a Senatorial election
Can't wait to see the 500 comments this article will generate from the hate-filled fascist obamabot left....
You have to be kidding me!
Obv iously Sen. Saxby Chambliss doesn't want to win either..........
She is bored up in Alaska..... next Dancing with the Stars.....
What has he done to deserve four more years? I want to know.
Oh goodness who called this in the rudy thread
oh no !
not the dim- wit sarah palin again.
Should"nt she be home with her kids who need her ?
Doesn't this women have a job? Does Alaska run itself?
I wish I had a magic wand to make her GO AWAY!
This is awesome. I just love Sarah! Not only did she pave the way for Obama to win the election, she continues every day to provide entertainment and comedy relief in these economically dire times. She's the perfect sociology experiment on multiple levels– not only an example of just how many people will follow the dumbest politician ever simply because of their narrow idealogy, but also how many people will watch her because of her looks (myself included), again, despite her being the dumbest politician ever. Please, Sarah, you go campaign for Saxby. That should give the Democrats a substantial edge.
I think we all need to cut Sarah Palin some slack. After all, she is from Alaska which has among the highest per capita incidence of alcoholism, rape and incest, i.e., she is from one of those "un-American" parts of our nation. In addition, she has no doubt been affected by the company she keeps, including a corrupt, convicted Senator, a witch doctor, and secessionists. In other words, she has been palling around with people who do not see America as you and I do.
So like I said, let's cut her some slack. She just doesn't know any better.
Dear God....please just go away!!! Please!!!
14:59:59
I don't know, does Chambliss really want the dumbest politician ever to campaign on his behalf? I hope some of the more intelligent republicans will jump over to the good side with this move.
Does the RNC condone this? I would think they would want her to stay away from all elections from here on out.
Good news for Martin!
Get over yourself, Sarah! Do your job that you signed up, and lead the people that really want you and need you!
Did anybody else the article last week where she has 800 personal appearance requests across the country for the coming year? Let's see– do my job as Governor of Alaska or stroke my ego by doing personal appearances all the time????? Wonder which one she will choose???
And I can't imagine 800 idiots in this country would actually want to book her to appear in the first place!!!!!!!!
Great!
Let the gaffes begin!
I told you They need me in the lower 48's.
Besides I needed an excuse to get out of Alaska again. So don't hate!
Please, Sarah, please....do tons of interviews. Maybe this time with a network other than Fox. Maybe someone who will ask tough questions AND follow-up.
If a were a resident of Alaska, I would be quite peeved at my governor spending time on politicking in Georgia! I understand her being away during the presidential campain but now that its over shouldn't she be a bit more focused on Alaska?
More details please ticker, like who is financing this trip?,
Nooooooooooo!!! Please, just make this woman go away already.
Does she and her handlers really think she's going to help? Don't they realize she is going to cause more damage to the party? to any candidate? to our sanity?
Send both Bush and Palin to Atlanta, that would seal it...
Caribou Barbie go back to your Alaskan dream house. America said thanks but no thanks on Nov 4th. Get the hint.
Is there nothing to do for a governor in Alaska?
She is been out for months now. She beter serve her people in Alaska rather that spend all her time in the lower US. or she can just get a job in the lower US, for her political career. She is so very well loved here...
WHYYYYYYYYYYYY??????? Go away already!!!!!!
And I thought we were done with her for a while. How disappointing.
What the heck is happening in on with these jokers. First Huckabee, then Rudy "911" Guilianni now Sarah "bulldog with lipstick" Palin
Take a lesson from John McCain and get out with some dignity!
Doesn't she have a job in Alaska that she is being paid to do? Why isn't she there doing it? And who in there right mind would want her endorsement?
Oh NO!!!!!!!!!!!! She at it again, spreading hate, lies and division among the American people...
Isn't Alaska COMPLAINING because she isn't doing her job????????
Well she did such a great job for McCain why not have her help another one not get elected.
She is like a pimple that won't clear.
Please please give us a break Sarah....stay in Alaska, please
Noah,
Shouldn't you be gathering your animals?
People need to get over this woman. She is not the vice president. She never had a shot at being the vice president. She needs to take her 150K in clothes and go home and stay there.
The more she stays in view, the worse it is for her in 2012.
So by all means Sarah, stay visible!
We can't get enough of her and we miss her malaprops.
She has no family values as far as I can see. She is very narcissistic
and into Sarah Palin. Who cares about her baby?? I am a Christian from Ohio and find her a real nut job.
Another loser going to the defence of a big loser in Georgia.
Looser Paulin, better stay home in the country where she should never leave!! Change in here.. Republicans will loose again!!
Are Republicans getting dumber by the minute?
Who would support this nit-wit?
Glad all those Democrats that supported Obama's "unity" and "change" are so eager to bash Palin....how do you say...hypocrite?
I feel SORRY for those intelligent republicans who have to be in the same party with Palin
For Crying Out Loud...CNN Make this thing go away...Please, Am sick sick sick...
so close CNN
We were so close to being done with her for good!!!!
Granted we saw her and some dead turkeys recently, but still ...
I think the one thing to take away from this is ... she has no handlers this time ... granted the GOP knew she was coming and they're not stopping her, so they obviously want her there...
I guess no one has learned.
Is this the best the GOP can muster??
Wonder how much the campaign is spending on this? Did the RNC re-loan her a campaign suit for the appearance?
She is Baaaaaackkkk ! Enough, pity, please, spare us !!!
What? None of the other losers have worked so far for Chambliss? Then let's try some good old "divide and conquer," Palin style!
Oh dear God! Just when I thought it was safe to turn the TV news back on...
This Palin person is a constant nightmare! She keeps popping back scaring us to death!
If only she knew how the rest of the world viewed her, she'd never leave that comfy home in Alaska.
I guess CNN has, for whatever reason, made the decision that they will report on Palin every four hours from now on.
I have no interest. There are 50 governors in the United States and Palin is no more or less interesting (or popular) (or important) than any of the others.
I'll be getting my news elsewhere from now on. CNN's new "All Palin News" programming is boring and useless.
Goodbye, CNN.
Another photoop for Palin. She does love the cameras and truly thinks she is becoming more popular with each appearance. Her appearance is nothing more than an annoyance to any intelligent person and, once again, I would question Chambliss' judgement by letting her campaign.
It's admirable to be ambitious, but ambition + stupidity is a very, very dangerous combination
If the media – which Sarah claims hates her – would just stop seeking her out and covering her every move, maybe she would just go away. If we wanted more of her, we'd have voted for her. We didn't. Please grant us an early holiday wish and ignore her.
Omg, when is this palin nightmare going to end for us the republican. God why is my fellow Gopians continuing to showcase this woman. Now i know for sure we are gonna loose georgia too to dem. brrrrrrrrrrrr
sadly she'll do great down in georgia. just indicative of a mentality there that isn't interested in issues. it will be like an old time good old boy rally only minus the white sheets.
Noah–Fair is fair. The Shrub stole Florida in 2000. It's our chance now to steal Minnesota. Deal??
The republican party in the USA has now become the laughing stock of the rest of the world. It is truly the party of clowns, freaks, and mentally unstable. Sort of reminds you of some terrorist groups.
The woman reminds me of the Nicole Kidman character in what was it "To Die For" – an untalented driven ruthless and stupid all in one semi-polished shell.
Although very scary to the rest of us, her love of cameras is going to ruin her. Just wait.
She did not help when the election was about moderate independents nationwide. It might make sense in GA though. But as I remember Charlie Daniel's song "The devil went down to GA and LOST. I hope she does the same
I Second This One! Well Said!!
Luke Brown, Charleston SC November 25th, 2008 11:03 am ET
Maybe Palin's unwed daughter will campaign along side John McCain and Fred Thompson's second wives, and Guilliani's third wife in a kind of Republican family values parade for Chambliss.
GOP needs to fire up that Christian Coalition base!
Go Sarah , and for all you demolibs remember 48% of the USA did vote for her. truely a breath of fresh air vs black puppet Clinton regime
Why oh why won't she go away!?!?!
Chambliss already treats legless vets like traitors, maybe she can come in and kick some puppies and babies around just for fun.
We wont get 4 years of Bush policy but we get 4 years of this dope. Thanks mainstream media!
SWEET. I was afraid there wouldn't be any more comic fodder for a while from the Saks 5th hick. You get in there and get all governorey with the people, just spreading that wisdom doggone it. hee heeeeeee
ugh When will we stop hearing about Failin Palin? She is a BAD joke, and need sto go home and do her JOB. You know, the one she was actually ELECTED to do. The rest of the country doesn't need winks and "you betchas". We need intelligence and steadfast leadership. Let Alaska suffer with the dregs... they wanted her after all.
Gp away, PLEASE - just GO AWAY!! Can't this woman take a hint? She's not doing this for Chambliss, it's a self-serving move to stay in the public eye. Doesn't Alaska need a governor anymore? And what about her family??? She's going to be changing even more diapers very soon....
GOP
Sarah Palin
Dumb and Dumber!!!
She needs to stay home and take care of her family
All you folks in Alaska have to be sooooo tired of this, too.
This woman is like a nightmare you just can't wake up from. As much as the rest of the world favored Obama they find this lady to be an absolute joke. For those of you Americans that support her, I only guess because she is a woman or your a strong Republican, as there is absolutely no logical reason to parade suck poor representation infront of anyone, think about this, people honestly think she is a joke. So many good republicans and wonderful female representative across the US and the republicans put her and Joe the plummer forward.
Oh my God, go home!!!!
Honestly...I am a Democrat, but some of you think the word Democrat is the godsend. Competence in Government is what we need, and while I am impressed with the Obama decisions so far, I dont think too much control is a very good thing.
Thats why I am rooting for the GA incumbent (R).
And,
Congress needs to do a driveby turkey sandwich and get their collective bootie back to work in DC.
That Nancy Pelosi MUST GO, and Barney Frank too!
At least Sarah has a RECORD of doing something in the couple of years she's been in charge up there!
Alaska wake up...you voted her as your leader, or did you vote for her to be a republican bimbo fliting around the country. Serves you right for electing an airhead. You might want to chain her to her desk in the govenors office so the rest of us dont have to see or listen to her.
Another loser looking for a big mouth to sling mud for him.
I think it's a given that anyone asking this lunatic to campaign for them, plans to fail. Did this guy just totally miss the presidential elections?
Don't underestimate the star power of a beauty queen shooting a wild hog in the Okefenokee Swamp and then knocking down some cool ones with the good ole boys!
shouldn't ol' Sarah be home planning a baby shower and a wedding?
Someone actually asked, "What can the Republican Party do to reestablish a positive image?" First, OPEN YOUR EYES!!!!! The more you put Palin out there, the worse you look! You may as well get George Bush to strump for you!!!! You people are in denial!!!! If your party doesn't get SERIOUS, you're doomed!!!! But then again, I don't mind. I voted for Obama! Keep it up and we will be eternally grateful!
Doesn't this boob have a job she was elected to do?
There's much to be said about someone who enjoys hoarding the public spotlight as much as this woman. You would think after months of campaigning, and being a key figure in destroying the McCain campaign she would get the hint by now.
How about raising those kids of yours, Sarah? Yeah, remember them?
Hahahahaha!
GOP – you have no one to blame but yourselves.
Also, Alaska – we're sorry to break your peace and quiet, but seriously, keep her up there and we swear we sill stop making fun of you.
Who's going to be paying for this trip.....the Alaska Tax payers or the RNC because it sure won't be Palin. I do find her entertaining as long as she's not fanning the flames of racism.
This could be a disaster for the GOP. Let Palin keep her buttttttttt in Alaska. They can do better than have her giving false and smears agains. Stay home Sarah.
Why won't she just GO AWAY??
NO
i only hope she does as much for chambliss as she did for mccain!!!
If everyone would just BOYCOTT any story from Palin, any news article of video from Palin – the media will tire and realize that she's not getting through to us.
AMERICA, BOYCOTT PALIN!!
Sarah.....just click your heels three times and repeat..."there's no place like Alaska..."!!!
Gobble Gobble! Thanks for helping another Democrat into office Sarah.
Good business for the high end stores in Georgia. Republicans still do not get it.
She truely is the last nail in someones coffin.
Oh, she'll galvanize the base and bring out the vote all right... for the Democrats!
I just got to say something... Idiots... I'm done now...
Who is running Alaska these days?
If Palin does not want to perform her duty as Governor of Alaska, then perhaps she can be replaced.
Someone has to speak up about Palin and her obvious disregard to her obligations to Alaska!
Well, at least the Democratic Party will be stronger, thanks to Palin!
If we are lucky, Palin will be responsible for the Democrats to have a filibuster power in the Senate!
Somebody please make her go away.......
NEWS BREAKING HEADLINES -
Done Deal in Georgia! Democrat Jim Martin has been elected Senator by a landslide margin after Sarah Palins campaign of hate and division across the State of Georgia....way to go Sarah!
God Bless President Obama and the First Family!!
This woman will chase the spotlight in a heartbeat!! It's really pathetic that she thinks she actually has a shot in 2012. The majority of Americans can see through her blind ambition..
The woman reminds me of the Nicole Kidman character in what was it "To Die For" – an untalented driven ruthless and stupid all in one semi-polished shell.
Although very scary to the rest of us, her love of cameras is going to ruin her. Just wait.
One can only wonder "why" he's asking her to campaign with him.
Maybe there's something going on that Mr. Palin should look into.
Anyone who believes that Palin can ever lead voted for Bush two times. I can't believe that anyone is still covering Palin.
Interesting to see how many still are afraid of the Sarah Palin impact.
... and for a good reason I will add
nooooooooooooooooooooo!!
Jim Jones in lipstick!
First Rudy Guiliani and now... "Heeeeeeeere's Sarah Palin!" I think this is absolutely laughable but the truly sad part of it is that it just might work...
Please! Save us from this woman! Why can't she just stay home, cook up a little moose chili, and let the really smart, accomplished, polished women represent us? A shell like her trying to be an icon for women or have any kind of far-reaching power is the worst thing that could happen for us! It would be so dangerous for her to actually get in a position of power outside her decidedly socialistic state of Alaska! She doesn't even know that giving the state's oil revenues back to the people is what socialism is! She thinks it is something else. But what? She must be just what her state needs and, perhaps, she understands the people she represents; however, more people live in my hometown, Houston, Texas, than live in the whole state of Alaska. Wonder what kind of damage she could do as mayor of Houston?! Our state does border a foreign country, so all of us down here in Texas have foreign policy experience. Some Texans can see Mexico from their front porches. Travel to a border town can be extremely educational but most of us have sense enough to know what we don't know. Sarah, go home and stay there! Please, Senator McCain, put SarahDora back in her box! It's the right and merciful thing to do.
i dont get it. why all the hate? this woman does an excellent job as govenor for alaska and GOOD luck to all you liberal dems who want to find out if she is as "bad" as other past leaders (clinton, pelosi, dodd, frank, meeks, waters etc etc etc). shes almost poerfect in her life as a woman, a mother and a political leader. dont hate, appreciate.
I also like Palin to pal-around and feed the MSM. In times of crisis and tougher days we need a comedian to make us feel good and Palin is just suitable and perfect for that.
Come on folks. Think about days without any news from Palin – How boring it will be.
Thank you Gov. Palin for all the entertainment you are providing.
But, No Thanks for being a serious contender of any national level public office. Please. Hope you understood that by now. If not ask your 'friend' President SARKOZY.
When does your "jealousy" of Gov. Palin ever stop??? Enough – you idiots have your chosen one in office!! Or could it be you are AFRAID of Gov. Palin???
Beauty, Brains and can handle the big boys and can still stick it to you "jealous ones" !!! LOL – LOL
Gov. Palin will kick Nobama out of his comfy chair in 2012!!! LOL!!!
Palin is a narcissitic sociopath who will do anything for attention. She has already been advised to go home to Alaska. She simply cannot accept the fact that she was defeated, nor will she ever, yikes!
Why are we stuck on Palin here. Obama is running the country into the ground, we are going to have to make it through 4 years of an administration even worse than Bush's. I need some money, man! C'mon! Dang!
is this like palin pardoning the turkey on one hand and on the other
hand the turkey is being hung upside down be hind her ???????
democrats like it when palin comes to town.
bush , mccain ,palin are all G.O.P as cluess as these 3 ?????
She can lead my state as well as Joe the Plumber can do my surgery.
Did Chambliss not learn anything from her influence on the Rep. party Presidential campaign...?
Might want to rethink this a little bit...
:/
I would bet that the citizens of Alaska would love to have an active Governor.
Noah/Genius,
"Chambliss is going to run away with this election unless...."
Ummmm...why didn't he just run away with the election the first time? Then there wouldn't be a need for a run-off.
Time to re-try the cunning stunt known as Sarah Palin. No doubt she'll be a hit in the Peach State.
She is keeping herself in the public eye. She wants to make sure that people remember her when she runs for President in the next election. Everyone should just turn off their television when she is doing her "song and dance"
PLEASE GO AWAY
That should be the kiss of death for the Republicans in Georgia.
You know what Democrats...this isn't this about you. It's the Republicans gig.
Go troll somewhere else.
At what point does she govern the state of Alaska? What's this campaign wardrobe going to cost? Maybe Ted Stevens and Joe Duh Plumber can tag along just so she doesn't feel like the biggest idiot on the campaign trail for Saxby Chambliss.
Please God no...no!
I'd be willing to pay her a one-way ticket back to Alaska Doesn't she have an igloo to tend to ?
Republican = Stupid.
GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol..thank you sarah six pack...you will make our task easier and we will be one step closer to get the magic number 60 fillibuster proof....I think Sarah Palin doesnt get or may be she is pretending not to get it....oh well...let her do what she got to do and let us take georgia senate seat from the GOP...
Drat. My holiday wish was that Caribou Barbie would stick to the snowy Alaskan outback and save us from her sly winks and folksie crap.
bah humbug
Good. This should insure Chambliss' loss.
Who's governing the State of Alaska?
Noah, you poor lost little man. Your name says it all. Christian, evangelical, racist, hate mongering, and all of the other negatives that Palin has voiced to America so "intelligently". LOL
Hey, I may be wrong, but wasn't there another Republican gunning for the White House this November? This one was male, though....or am I nuts?
Jim.....John something?
Sure, let this nitwit stick her nose in a campaign and hand the democrats another seat!! She's a horrible mother, leaving her special-needs child with God knows who, just to put her mug back in the limelight? I can't wait till we can truly say good riddance.
You LIB'S are so scared of Sarah you should be. Get ready you president will be gone in four years he will be another Carter. Oh look at the change weclome back the Clinton's nothing new. Enjoy your four years hateful sayings and your welfare checks. O how about the 2.5 million jobs OB promise wait a minute now he says to save not create.
He is not change he is the same old BS.
Will she please just go away. The woman is clueless. This from the person that stood for 3 minutes doing a "happy go lucky" interview while turkeys where being slaughtered. People and small children are going to have nightmares. Wouldn't Palin or a aid say, "we need to move this interview"?
Anyway, isn't she the governor of Alaska? Would her time be better spent there. She didn't give up the position.
Will somebody PLEEEZE keep this hick-talkin" Wasilla trailer trash in Alaska. Some turkeys need slaughterin'...
Okay, I'm from Ga and I wasn't going to bother to vote in the runoff election, but now I am. Jim Martin, you've got my vote!
I hope she has new material to speak about. I know they do not want to hear about... “What I did in Alaska” or Ayres… I know she is wondering what kind of shopping she can do in GA. Do what you do Ms. Palin. But I’m sure it would be nice if you could spend a lil time with the Baby... unless you have a belt clip with a lil baby pocket on it for him on it for this campaign
WOW! With all those HEAVY HITTERS, McCain, Palin, Guilianni, all losers, pulling for him, he cannot miss!!!!!
Thou protest too much. People without good values do not like to be confronted with people with good values, makes them uncomfortable.
The media ought to remind the electorate of how Sen. Chambliss got elected in the first place. His campaign bitterly, falsely, and unforgivably attacked the patriotism of his predecessor/opponent, a critic of the Bush/Cheney Middle East policy.
That took some truly infernal chutzpah, as former Sen. Max Cleland is a much-decorated Viet Nam war hero who left three of his limbs on the battlefield.
Georgians, as you vote, think about the trashing of Max Cleland, and return Sen. Chambliss to private life.
I hope she does all she can to continue McCain type of winning streaks. I hope she runs for president forever.
Democrats 2012,2016,2020,2024,2028,2032
Please Palin keep exciting your divisive base.
The funniest thing i'm reading is about the governor of louisiana being a potential republican star.
Hello!!! Republican base can only vote for people they feel look like them.
Don't forget to drag the baby along – what's his name, Prop?

typical liberal dem response. you people hate babies, disabled folks, old folks and well, the average person. but you like crooks, gays, liars and cheats, lazy poor people.
I guess the GOP really is that dumb.
Glad to see there are plenty of people in the GOP that can't tell the difference between notoriety and good publicity. Yes there will be lots of cameras and microphones there. Heaven knows what they'll capture and distribute to the voters, though.
As he should have, McCain lost based on who he picked as a VP candidate, and how he handled the rest of the campaign. Anyone else making the same sorts of choices...well, it's "just desserts", folks.
Stupid is as stupid does.
Instant Loss – just add Palin!
Sweet ... she can help him lose, too! After that ... she needs to go back up to the turkey slaughter house where the only thing more "foul" than her is the foul! LOL!!!
She's in her 16th minute of fame now. When will she realize that her 15 minutes are up? The Democrats hope that she becomes the Republican flag bearer, as this will ensure a Demcratic majority in the years to come.
Oh my. Please keep her in Alaska away from the camersas. WHO CARES, already!
Good grief – enough of this clown – make her go away!
SARAH PLEASE GO AWAY.
GO BACK TO ALASKA. WE ARE TIRED OF YOUR DUMB BUTT
Will she be traveling with Todd, Piper, Picked, Pack, Pickled and Pepper also...
Who's paying for it and will they all get a new wardrobe for the trip?
She is making sure that democrats get the absolute fillibuster-proof majority in the senate. Great Job Plain! Keep it up!
So...Sen. Saxby Chambliss must want to lose too, eh??
Does GOP not realize THIS IS NOT A GOOD THING?
Sarah is welcome to Georgia because she is like us, middle America. Sit down and stay a while Sarah..., enjoy some of our real southern hospitality instead of that agenda driven crazy cattie crap the divisive left has been offering you.
Please, just go back to Alaska and keep an eye on Russia, enough already!!! Shheeeesh!!!
I wish people would leave Sarah alone. She is not dumb. The liberal media made her out to be that way, and all of your are dumb enough to buy into that.
She has graduated from college, led city government and now state government. How many of you have done that?
This is like a scene from "Night of the Living Dead"........everytime you think she is politically dead and buried, she comes back to life and haunts your TV screen. Enough already!
I never had so much fun in life conpare to reading people reaction to her comming back on the campaign trail on this blog.
I'm in tears. Good news for SNL.
...and for that matter, who is running Alaska's state government? Has it actually improved over the past 18 months? Will Gov. Palin claim the additional time as "executive experience" in office? Now that she's flown around the country many times, is she an expert on domestic policy as well as foreign policy (you can see a lot farther from the plane window than from her front porch...)? Will the Couric interview suffice to tank the aspirations of anyone dumb enough to have her as a spokesperson for them? And, best of all, what new howlers will she let drop from her mouth?
She is so hardheaded...rambling Sarah...noone knows what she says or understands what she says...rambling in the twilight zone..she probably sees stars when she talks..Your 2cents worth is over and you blew it...
Keep this woman in alaska! Palin the half baked alaskan go away!
Keep her out of the news!
Whoever says Gov. Palin is dumb – BACK AT YA!!!
LOL – LOL
Each one of you that claims to have had enough of Gov. Palin is not making a true statement!! You would not be commenting about her if you hated her!!! Admit it – come on – WE ALL LOVE THIS WONDERFUL PERSON!!!! AND WITH OUR HELP GOV. PALIN WILL BE IN THE WHITE HOUSE IN 2012!!!!! GOOD JOB GUYS!!!! LOL
I wish that sje would just go away . She is a loser
Well, I was going to vote for Saxby...
He's certain to lose now if that dunce "helps" him.
What do you bet that Sarah Palin could survive a nuclear bomb being dropped on her..........I don't think anything could make this woman go away.
She probably thinks Georgia is in Russia.
I thought her fifteen minutes of fame was up?
This is like a B A D D R E A M
The woman has a pathological need for the media spotlight.
Sarah Palin has not yet learned that campaigns are not the same as beauty pageants. See Beauty Pageants run over and over and over, if you lose in one, you just keep movin on to the next one. No one is hurt and it goes on forever. In Politics, if you lose you lose, that's it, done, go home. Everyone knows where you stand and on what. If the GOP wants Sarah to represent her, well keep at it. we will have no Republicans left.....................
Gosh I am tired of this lady.......
PLEASE GO AWAY!
She is just self-promoting herself disguised as a stumper for a fellow GOP idiot.
I would think Alaska would want its governor home governing, or at the very least attending to her very pregnant teenage daughter!
what a whackjob
No wonder the liberals scream hate at the site of Sarah. This women adds excitement to the mix! Even for CNN's lame blog..
you betchya she'll take another man down and i sure would like to talk about the great ronald reagan and ya know we can see russia from here too alright
i love it that the dems are still so terrified of sarah! they think that if they keep trashing her it will hurt her and make her go away – they don't know what a really strong woman is because all they have to look at is hillary (who got where she is because of who she married) and pelosi who is herself a joke. republicans should feel sorry for them because they are so clueless and pathetic!
I just wish Sarah Palin would go back to Alaska, and stay back. I'm so done with her.
Birds of a feather...
And the Political Darwin Award goes to.....
Saxby Chambliss!!!!!
yaaaaaaaay!!!1!!one!! [insert Kermit the Frog waving hands like crazy]
She helped McCain lose. How could she possibly help this guy?
I've got to believe that the Democratic National Committee is paying for this. But, in Georgia, this airhead may actually help.
Brilliant! She is gorgeous! Good entertainment!
Wow. The scary thing is that the "Guns and Jesus" crowd will come out in droves and vote her into office. I'll definitely think about leaving the U.S. at that point. I'm not the kind of American they want (liberal, critical, and skeptical).
maybe they want to lose the elections again ahahahaha if you want to lose your president bid or senet sit hire palin for your campaign
this is all about sarah now and making herself visible at every viable GOP media event. she's like a roller derby queen elbowing for position and she's not going away because the GOP has no other candidate with her charisma. Plenty with more brains than her but none who are as power hungry as she is. She took her first hit of the power drug as McCain's running mate and now like one of the many meth addicts scurrying about her state she's hooked and will do anything for that limelight. She's dangerous because she DOESN"T CARE if she says something stupid as long as she's the center of attention. She admitted she knew nothing about foreign policy but that didn't stop her because she knows that if you lie and say you're qualified 100 times and tell the truth and say you aren't once; that one truth gets lost in the media trash pile. This is political musical chairs folks and Sarah is determined to be sitting in that chair in 2012.
Maybe she should just go on ahead and stick Chambliss in that machine where the turkeys go to have their heads grinded off. She seemed to be proud of that thing.
Or maybe on second thoughts, she got bored of looking at Russia from her back window!
NO!
Nooooooooooooooooo
Good for her!
It's great to be an American where everyone has a right of freedom of speech.
I really don't understand why anyone would want her to campaign for them. She demonstrated complete incompetence during McCain's campaign and although there were other reasons, she made him lose by looking like a fool to the majority of Americans. The only people who like this woman are other women/men with their radical christian viewpoints.
Apparently, being governor of Alaska is a pretty simple job since it seems to require little or no time on Palin's part to fulfill her responsibilities."
Much like being a Senator from Illinois?
You know, after that last bit with the turkeys in the background, this woman is just plain gross.
I guess you'll be having tofu for Thanksgiving?
It's amusing reading these boards. I love it when people that can't spell the most rudimentary words in the English language or properly tense a verb call a sitting governor stupid.
Yippie Kiiiiiiiiiiii yaaaaaaaaaa,Its Sarah to the rescue.
I'm still waiting to hear about the clothing auction "for charity"....guess she got to keep the goods, yup, you betcha!
Good, we could use the laughs.
This is good news for Jim Martin.
Why are Republicans willing to spend millions of dollars and campaign for racist bigots?
Silly Sarah – still suffering from Delusions of Adequacy!!
Are we going to see her again in NBC Sat Night ? poor woman.
LOL! This is TOO MUCH. I almost wish I was in Georgia just so I could be entertained by all this.
I am almost having to take a day off work so I can stay home and LAUGH at this parade of losers take down an entire political party that has been around for centuries...
The republicans should team Sarah Palin and Rudy in 2012. It will make for a sure winner for the dems. Obama won't even have to campaign for another term.
it's all about sarah!!!!!!!!!!
Palin, just go away.
If I were Alaska, I would be ready to impeach her. It's about time she started taking care of the job she already has! Who's paying for this little vacation?
I think it is very good for Chambliss. During the off-season election you need your base to win and who loves Sarah Palin more then the Republican Base.
I'm from Atlanta, Georgia. And, while I hate to say it, Sarah Palin is perfect to campaign to the Republicans of Georgia. With all her religious extremism, she'll fit right in.
When is she ever going to be a mother for those dysfunctional children of hers? No wonder they have had the messes in their lives that they've had. I shudder to think of any dim witted American woman holding her up as an example of motherhood. Even now that she has an opportunity to be at home with them, she chooses not to. She is just not interested in being a parent and it shows in the outcome in her children. Her other daughter will get "big" under her nose next. Poor Trig and Piper.
Stupid people are entitled to representation in our government.
We as a society need stupid people to absorb bullets, buy our crappy products and perform menial tasks. Therefore we should honor their choice in politicians.
Sarah Palin should go back to Alaska and tend to her elected job which she's has ignored for months! What's a loser doing trying to help out another loser?
Why doesn't Palin accept the offers to appear on the late night shows? The country could use a good laugh. I can't see any other reason for the offers. She should also accept the all expenses paid offers from the twenty other international tv shows cause in these hard times the whole world could use a real big joke.
Um, folks, let's realize that we are talking G-E-O-R-G-I-A.
They like her there.
Whens the swimsuit part of this competition start?
Well, see there's her first problem, she's an Alaskan campaigning in Georgia...
Not quite exactly as far from Alaska you can get and still be in the US, but close...
As a Libertarian, (and so looking at the two parties from a different viewpoint), I am at a loss to see that she would draw a big following. Her folksy ultra Christian conservatism was a contrast to McCain–which is why he picked her–to gather those far-right-wingers that he didn't appeal to.
Seems to me that this election is proof that the religious spin is wearing thin.
Also, since less than 1/4 of the population of the US voted for Obama (~60million) we certainly don't have a mandate for his grow government policies...
Why are you people so mean?
I didn't think one could s t r e t c h their 15 minutes of fame
Here ya go again .... runnnnnnnnnnn
Sarah Palin is a flake and an idiot. She can't even speak correct English. Her comments are moronic. She's one of the reasons McCain was smeared all over the map on 11/04/08. Who is going to be next?? Joe the Plumber??
Saxby Chambliss is filthy and slimy and unpatriotic.
When is she going back to work for the people of Alaska. You know...the ones who hired her and are paying her salary!
Great! She can sink Saxby the same way she did McCain.
Hello 60 seat majority.
Go away, Palin. Nobody likes you. Go back to your igloo. Go on, git!
The closer? That's laughable. The only 'closing' she did for McCain was close any chance of him winning the presidency. Just go back to Alaska and earn your paycheck. No one wants to hear from you!
Are there actually any people who would vote for this candidate because of Palin? Georgian's aren't that dumb are they?
Does she want to cause another Republican loss?
She's there because McCain reminded her that "We are all Georgians", she just got on the wrong plane home, thinking she's Georgian, that is...
For the love of God, will this woman get lost! Palin please tend to your family and get lost forever!
makes sense...send the racist in a pretty package down there to rile up "the base"...after all, they're obviously more upset with the idea of an extremely intelligent black man in office than a woman with an IQ lower than bedrock
As much as I hate to say it, she will probably help Chambliss's effort. Outside of Atlanta and maybe Athens, GA is certainly no bastion of independent thought.
Palin was a drag on the ticket. By herself, she's a lead boat anchor.
Great, now Mrs. Palin is coming to Georgia to wreck more important men's lives lol. I think Senator Chambliss is better off alone than teaming up with Palin. Let's not forget what happened to Mccain.
Easy to see this forum is full of ignorant liberal idiots who think Obama is somehow more qualified and isn't going to run this country into the tank. Wow, people....get a clue.
feed her to a moose
Doesn't this woamn have a job???!!!!!
When does she perform the duties of governor that the people of Alaska hired her to do?
And will she charge the State of Alaska a per diem for her stay in GA? And ask for reimbursement for the airfare? And bring her kids and charge for them as well? And maybe stop at Nieman Marcus while she's there?
Palin doesnt seem to realize that shes is only extremely popular with an extremely small percentage of americans, certainly not the best americans as this last election showed us...
This will certainly help (Jim Martin).
GO HOME.
GO AWAY.
JUST GO!
"Palin to hit campaign trail in Georgia" – NNNNNOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
I finally thought we got rid of this idiot, and she is back for more???? isn't there someone that can make her realize she is politically and mentally dead????
She is campanigning for someone who attacked a Vietnam War veteran, who lost three limbs during his service, for not being tough enough on issues of war and homeland security, while Chamblis didn't serve in the Vietnam War due to receiving military deferments.
Maybe Palin should have asked only the Republicans who have served to raise their hands.
She is quite delusional. Being an educated mother who has traveled around the world, speak several languages, and have worked in numerous international governmental organizations, even I do not feel that competent to lead America, because I love this country. I am not that selfish as Palin is!
I think Sarah Palin is avoiding dealing with Trig, her Down Syndrome child, and her the unwed pregnancy of her teenage daughter, Bristol.
According to the April 22, 2008 Anchorage Daily News, Palin was back to work three days after giving birth to Trig. It's clear to me, that she would rather be in the limelight than take care of her kids.
I'm a feminist and a mom. I think Palin is selfishly choosing her own needs over her family's, at a time when they obviously need her very much.
Why anyone would support Palin is beyond me. She's a terrible role model for women everywhere.
Why is she still talking...she just does not get it!
Excellent news for Senator Martin!! Nothing makes Dems go to the polls and Repubs retreat in shame like a Sarah Palin appearance. And how she could even agree to campaign when most folks still picture her standing in front of a dying bloody turkey is beyond me...
Shes going to get her own Show and take over where Springer left off.

Sarah Palin reminds me of George Bush: She is unfazed by reality. Of course, the GOP being the shambles which it is, she might have a future on the national scene.
Having said that: Just imagine Sarah Palin being in Obama's shoes right now. Who would her team of economic experts be? Could she converse with an economist? Upon what basis would she make decisions between opposing economic views? The thought is truly mind boggling.
John McCain's greatest sin is putting Palin in the national spotlight.
Umm, where are Todd and the kids? They were "inseparable" during her failed bid for VP; now all of a sudden they are "no-shows" when she shows.
Governor Palin better start taking care of her home and her state.
Come on people give her a break! I bet a lot of you don't even know the real Palin. You guys know Tina Fey. I know the woman who gave the brilliant speech at the Republican National Convention. So, she made some slip-ups and said some very dumb things. Her nomination probably got her completly by surprise. She's just this obscure governor and suddenly–BAM! She's thrust upon the national scene and suddenly nearly every voter in America knows her name. She was immediatley scheduled to be interviewed; I doubt she had much time to prepare for all this.
I see that "Sis. Slaughterhouse Say-rah" is put up to it again...and too dense to realize that she is quickly losing tundra in Alaska! Alaskans for Truth are no longer stooping to accomodate her shenanigans ~ and in this life, you reap what you sow; be it good or bad. So say it ain't so Sis. Sayrah....puhleeze!
Palin dont come to georgia you loser.....Why Palin stand in front of camera for us to see killing of a turkey.......Palin did destroy Republican party.
Since John McCain brought this disaster to he surface, he should be MADE to live with this woman 24/7!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOL
TO MAKE SURE HE LOOSES!
LOL
Jim Martin must be singing and dancing and having a wonderful time right now.
It is no wonder the republicans are in trouble as long as they keep sending her around. Did they not hear her speeches or do they think that sex sells republican politicians like it does cars, beer and cosmetics.
They should save her for the super bowl, then she would be in her normal environment.
What do you hate about Palin? Do not be general, be specific. Tell me what she did that you hate her so much. I am a republican but wood never vote for Palin (I have my reasons) but I do not hate her. I did not vote for Obama, but I wish him the best. I want to know why you hate her. Do you hate any person that runs against a dem or what? You people probably hate McCain too but I bet many of you voted Kerry in . Kerry happens to be McCain's best friend on the senate floor.
By the way it is a joke that you call governors dumb. If they are dumb then why are they governors and you are sitting at home with no job and nothing better to do than bash her.
That should help to make sure that Jim Martin wins in the runoff.
And yet again....
hope she has new material to speak about. I know they do not want to hear about… “What I did in Alaska” or Ayres… I know she is wondering what kind of shopping she can do in GA. Do what you do Ms. Palin. But I’m sure it would be nice if you could spend a lil time with the Baby… unless you have a belt clip with a lil baby pocket on it for him on it for this campaign
Sarah Palin coming to GA to promote Saxby Chambliss has definitely helped me to make my decision and has motivated me to get out and vote again. I'll be voting for Jim Martin this time.
She will be credited will staving-off a Dem rule
Just love her....the crowds will be ENORMOUS here in GA!!!!
Here's hoping the campaign trail hits back. Hard.
Go back to Alaska, Sarah Palin!
Sarah Palin is really what Democrats, Independents, and a few Republicans need to motivate them to really go out and vote for Democrat Martin.
Amazing how the Republicans are really jostling for party leadership – how desperate, and quite sad really!
Kim J...because they are liberals.
One of the best things about November 5th was the great possibility that there would be no more Sarah Palin! Can't anyone get this woman to go home and stay home? No one wants to hear that moronic voice any more! You betcha! She has a pregnant, unmarried teen aged daughter and younger children who were out of school for months (obviously, those kids NEED to be in school!). She is probably helping the Democrats snatch that Senate seat away from Chambliss (which is fine by me) but how can we convince Sarah to PLEASE go away?
Clearly, this woman is haltingly unintelligent. I mean, if she were a true intellectual, she would sit online all day and make underhanded comments about every political news story that deals with republicans.
Thank god for all the mensa members on this blog. It must be hard calling all the big time shots with zero accountability or recourse for your clever comments launched from anonymity. Now that takes real courage and intellectual stamina.
Get a life people. Keep posting your inane and illegible comments while people who matter go out and make a difference outside the comfort of their keyboards.

Tampa
First the Republicans gave us W(orstt), now they give us P. Hummm, can I think of some fitting letters to follow? Maybe Peabrain?
Saxby Chambliss is one the most despicable people in the senate attacking Max Cleland for his patriotism. While Saxby was receiving deferments, Max Cleland was fighting in Viet Nam losing 3 limbs.
Hopefully there is a special place in hell for Saxby Chambliss.
Are we still paying her to be governer of alaska? Umm...she's not doing her job. And if I skipped a few months of work to go rile up rednecks and spew hate speech I think my employer may have something to say about it...and I guarentee it would be something along the lines of get the hell out of here, you're fired.
maybe our government should do the same to her.
Well it is a three ring circus down here. Bill Clinton has been putting his foot in his mouth and the airwaves are full of Obama commercials. Can it get any crazier? Just let us Georgians vote for who we want. We don't need any outsiders coming in here and telling us how to vote!!! Everyone else stay home! You can't turn on your TV without a Martin of Chambliss ad. Thankfully it is only on week away - and then the recounts will begin. Also, all you lawyers can stay away too! Lord help us!!
Oh lord... She needs to hit the snooze and go back to bed
BC...you need some serious help....geezzzz....
Come on folks...........look on the bright side. If she were only a little bit younger, we could make her the 'Poster Child' of the failed educational system's 'No Child Left Behind' program.........'A Shining Example'.
She keeps this up, even the dimwits in Alaska won't re-elect her hateful, stupid self. It's clear, now that she's a stahhhhh, she couldn't give a crap about Alaskans.
This outta be good for more laughs. She should take this act on the road.
Saxby Chambliss. What kind of name is that? Elitist, inbred, aristocratic, coward who never went to war but called Max Cleland a traitor.
When will Republicans see that their representatives are the exact opposite of what they say they are? Values=valueless; Religious=we'll screw you because you're stupid; Keep you safe=you go fight for our oil, etc.
Sarah Palin=Voodoo witchy woman
I can't wait – the ads matching Palin up with Chambliss will be a lot of fun.
Palin is a cartoon character. Like one of those women with piled up hair in "The Far Side" cartoons.
What do you expect from the GOP ( "Grand-Ol-Palin" Party).
Enough already! If, indeed, Gov. Palin is as interested in governing Alaska as she purported during the presidential campaign, then please go govern Alaska and leave the lower 50 states alone. Perhaps Sen. Chambliss, if he wishes to return to his spot, should think twice before hitching his wish to that star. It may just be what the new guy is looking for. "Ya think?
Laura....sorry but she helped McCain even come close in the GE....without her he would have lost by over 20 points...please go check the polls.
so much for running her state and taking care of her handicapped baby
GO Sarah Palin!! We're pulling for you!
- DNC
Palin doesn't give a rat's rump about Saxby Chambliss. I doubt she knew who Chambliss was a week ago. She misses those cameras!
I'm wondering how Chambliss feels about another loser showing up to help. Hmmm. Guiliani lost. Palin dragged down McCain and both lost in a landslide election. Hope their luck rubs off on Chambliss.
TO: "Err...uh...." first, you sound like Obama, second, please go check the polls, without Palin, McCain would have lost by over 20 points.
For the honorable Mr. Chambliss to now lose this election would certainly put a fork in Mrs. Palin's political career. For any future politician she'd become the kiss of death. Poor GOP! Still on the death spiral.
Who is Nick Ayers really....sharing the same name as a TERRORIST!?!?!?
No. VA Palin fan said on November 25th, 2008 11:06 am ET
You go Sarah! Once the ridiculous media bias about you subsides, the entire public will see clearly the strong and convicted American leader that you are.
Yeah. She should be CONVICTED for troopergate but that has covered up and even the indictment has been fought tooth and nail. She is a convicted american leader in my eyes.
My 2 cents.
Dear Lord ,
Please end her 15 minutes.........
Noah...now its called "stealing" an election when you properly count votes? Wow...I hate to break it to you, but this IS a democracy, whether a certain far-right, Anti-American element of the Republican party wishes to believe so or not.
Yes Sarah, you can have some juice before nap time, let us get your sippy cup and bib...put down those paint chips dear, those aren't for snack time
Oh sure. Sideshow Sarah is taking it to the roads.
She doesn't have enough time to study up on foreign policies and other important issues, but she sure has enough time to create more gaffes. The media has got to be loving this.
CNN. You attract some really hostile liberal people.
This country need taxes, some of you need to look for work
and be productive and heal you mental disease.
Most of you have obsessive and compulsive problem.
Saxby Chambliss,what kind of a name is that ? Obviously it belongs to a "Republican"? What parent would name his kid Saxby unless he was sheltered in a exclusive private school predominately "WASP" orientated! He's a rich man's Senator and has done nothing for Georgia's sad state of affairs. Now,Mr. Martin sounds like a grounded individual, with a good track record. So, I pose this question:do you want ,"Royalty,or a "Plebian"(common folk) to run your state.......? PS Hail Ceasar!!!
MOVE OVER BRANGELINA & JEN !!!
Here comes SARAH !!!
Rah rah rah!
You betch'a Flash those legs
and Talk like a hill billy
That's what we LAK down here in GAAAJA
Show DEM DA WAY TA GO!
Gag.
Sarah is incredible !!!!!!!!!!
She attracts so much attention.
She is a STAR !!!!
Sarah 2012.
Sarah Palin needs to get into show business............................
Combination of two haters = Combination of two losers!!!!!!
well, it is Georgia.
I would hope that the good citizens of Georgia would see through the veneer of Palin and the republican party. They say they are the fiscally responsible party and yet they created one of the worst financial disastors ever in this country. They say they are the more moral party but they let greed run rampant and ignore the poor. The only chance we have to be great again is to immediatley implement Obama's visionary changes and having an obstructionist republican congress will delay or squash these absolutely necessary changes. Please vote for Martin!!!
I'm wondering if she truly "thanked God" that His will was done on November 4th? And did she forget to congratulate the President-Elect Obama and the Blue Team on their momentous victory...for which she largely contributed? Just askin'...
Thank you Gov'nor...for all that you do ~ and for all that you fail to do.
And I guess her kids will be traveling with her, huh!!!
They seem to go everywhere she goes. They need to be in school getting the education Sarah and Todd didn't get!!
Palin is so dumb that she doesnt realize she is stupid. She thinks she still has a shot to be the first female vice/president. Good luck with that! The media loves her because she gives them something to talk about.
Oh, come guys and gals, she has to have somewhere to wear all the $150.00 worth of RNC clothes. It is winter in Alaska and her Polar Bear fur doesn't work well in Georgia. Dress up the manikin and wind up the talk box, set her loose on the Georgia voters.
@hometowndemocrat.
I'm with you there. Like a darn cockroach.
Well this should clinch a win for Jim Martin and some fresh material for Saturday Night Live!
wow...nice way to insure the loss Sarah. Go home!
Pray for her people, she's lost. When is the grandchild due?
I want all the Obamabots, who have obviously added their negative comments here, to get back to me in a year when "wonder boy " and his reincarnated Clinton cabinet have gotten us into an even bigger mess than we're already in. Who will they bash then???????
OMG what will she do for an encore slay a moose before those red meat Rep's She is a joke and he will surely lose now............Can we start a petition to keep her in ALASKA ........ YOU BETCHA
Georgia voted for McCain/Palin by a margin of 200,000 votes. Sorry kool-aid drinkers, by bring Palin in the deal is sealed for Saxby. Are you a Governor? Can you draw thousands and thousands...at rallies? Can you raise hundreds and hundreds of million of dollars in one month, Yes, one month? How can so many people hate one woman, says something about ones up bring.
Please say it ain't so......Stay in Alaska...I was beginning to enjoy the news again.......I cannot take hearing that voice again....Why do the R keep urging her on?? she is so generic........
TIna Fey needs some new material. Remember – beauty fades, stupid is forever.
She makes me wish I was Pinnochio.
Poor Georgia. Sux 2BU!
Chambliss just lost the election.
And her opinion matters why? She will show up for a days or two, get some press, and then leave. She doesn't give a hoot about Georgia. It's all about her.
The same goes for Romney, Giuliani and the others. What a joke.
Thank you Sarah. Although I live in NC, you motivated me to donate $25.00 to the Democratic party down in Georgia. I am amazed the people of Alaska are still paying her salary. First, traveling the country running for VP, then the repub governors conference, and now this. You would think the people of Alaska would actually want their governor to spend some time in Alaska. Although, if my governor was Palin, I would want her out of the state as well. I was a die-hard republican voter all my life, until Palin joined McCains ticket. I have never volunteered for a campaign in my life, but 2 weeks after Palin being picked, I was an Obama volunteer. I actually had planned on voting for McCain, whomever he picked, but I jjst couldn't give that woman my vote.
The sad thing about this is that the media, the agents, hollywood, and even Oprah want her.
That just goes to show how much those folks are out of touch with the Real America and its people.
How do they come up with her to be someone who can make millions and win elections, I do not understand, but I guess that shows how dumb I really am.
Pardon me that was $150,000 not $150.00 in clothes. You know the clothes that were to be donated the charity. Her clothes rack is full.
It's obvious she has no interest in working in her own state anymore. So why are the people of Alaska stuck paying for this woman to travel around and avoid her duties. We had the same problem with our own governor, Tim Pawlenty, when he was 'too busy' to actually do the job we elected, and are paying him for.
Not going too deep into her inability to ignite the NATIONAL Republican base during the Presidential election, just what does a lifetime resident of Alaska know who is best candidate for the citizens of Georgia? That is what is being decided in Georgia. Which of these 2 candidates is better for Georgia? And since there is no way for Governor Palin to KNOW either of these candidates, she is basically going down there with the standard party argument. Since this one is Republican, that is the candidate you should choose. And frankly, regardless of which party is using that argument, it has gotten old.
Maybe that will encourage more BARACKO voters to come out and vote for Martin and the Repubs that did vote for McCain/Palin will realize that we will need a senator who can work with BARACKO. Georgia is in big economic trouble, Chamblis has a problem with BARACKO thus creating a problem for us.
Palin must be ready for a new swanky wardrobe. She needs to go back to school. No wonder she is popular in Alaska. They must be as nim witted as she is. Thought she is supposed to be a Govenor or something up there. Does she have that much leave left over?
Good to see that the looney left intolerance levels are still at record highs, even after putting their putz into the White House.
What happened to the "devoted mother" to her special needs child?
Remember during the campaign, she was on stage with that baby in her arms dang near every outing.
Since then though, we haven't seen that child in her arms one single time.
This woman is absolutely the lowest of the low – and then lower still.
LMAO!!!! Obviously this guy doesnt want to win. What a joke!
Palin has energy but no sound knowledge and I with many have no ideal what she's talking about most of the time. Good luck.
It's obvious she has no interest in working in her own state anymore. So why are the people of Alaska stuck paying for this woman to travel around and avoid her duties. We had the same problem with our own governor, Tim Pawlenty, when he was 'too busy' to actually do the job we elected, and are paying him for.
At least she is new and freash....something obama promised but it basically looks like Clinton people are back at the white house. So much for new ideas and fresh faces!!! You asked for it....you got it...enjoy!.
Hopefully, Palin will do for Chambliss what she did for McCain and he'll lose big time!
Okay, there goes my vote for Saxby, I am now voting for Martin
Yes she is ripping off Sheriff Marge Gunderson of "FARGO" no one else in Alaska talks like that but her. She is a JOKE.................He will lose big time now, smells like desparation mixed in with moose chili...........
Well, I'm glad that I'm leaving town for the holidays while she is here. I don't want to be in the same state as this woman and it looks like I might be able to keep that dream alive!
Also, bad move Chambliss. I wasn't going to vote on 12/02, but now I will just because you brought her to where I live! If you believe in Palin, I don't believe in you.
I can see Chambliss hiding behind the door whispering "don't let her in, please don't let her in".....haaaaaahahahahahhaaaa
Wow, Scara...So you WANT her to lose?
In the true form of the south she will be welcomed with southern charm and hospitality. Welcome!!!!!
Is Joe the Plumber coming to Georgia too?
Why all the hating?
Who's running Alaska these days?
If Palin does not want to perform her duty as Governor of Alaska, then perhaps she can be replaced.
Someone has to speak up about Palin and her obvious disregard to her obligations to Alaska!
Well, at least the Democratic Party will be stronger, thanks to Palin!
If we are lucky, Palin will be responsible for the Democrats to have a filibuster power in the Senate!
Hey, Brad... be glad to, but I think you'll be the one surprised with the improvements Obama has made. However, I'll be glad to accept your sincere admission of an honest mistake.
The Republican Party has officially embraced stupidity as a plank in their national platform.
She is TRYING really hard to stay in the spotlight!!! I wish that she take her crazy behind back to Alaska and STAY...PLEASE!!!!!!!! What a really stupid woman!!!!
OK,
Nothing gets Obama Supporters off their butts and into the voting booth like Sahara Pailin!!!
Time to start the Obama Comunity Org. Machine and get Martin voted in!
Gov. Palin, your state needs you not the rest of the country.
You liberals need to give the palin bashing a break. You should be paying more attention to your what new elect president is doing. A third Term clinton administration Give this new administration a couple of years and the republicians will be the majority again. You guys are sad.
She's in her element once again. Chambliss is running the nastiest and misleading campaign. His ads are shameful. And HEREeeeeee's SARAH! How perfect.
I hope she brought some fresh turkey down with her because ya don't have that kind of fun every day!
Welcome to Georgia. Where is Joe the Plumber? That should make a good party and have fun.
Sam November 25th, 2008 12:16 pm ET
Sam...That is a rather slim margin in a traditionally heavily red state. By Kool-aid drinkers, do you mean: "Americans who actually bother to think"? And what, do you think Palin can draw more at rallies and raise more money than the Dems can? Come on, you're not really that far off-base from reality, are you?
Also, I don't think that many people hate Palin, people just hate her actions, her twisted world-view, and complete and total lack of intelligence or integrity.
Sarah maybe be lacking fundumental understanding and knowlege of basic issues (foreign and domestic) but she know as much as it is much warmer in GA this time of the year than in Alaska! Have to give her credit for that....or maybe not...Just hope she is planning on bringing her poor kids with her....
actually, she did congratulate Obama on his victory and vowed to support him in any way she could, and also commented on the historic nature of his election.
She was asked not to speak on election night, and left it to Sen McCain.
Act like adults...Give her a break!
There are more voters in the small area of Georgia where she's acting out than there are in her entire state. This explains why she has so much time on her hands and thinks governance is easy.
I didn't know Jim Martin palled around with terrorists, too!
We lost the presidency because of Palin . . . we have a shot at this senate seat in Georgia. She is not the new face of the Rebulican party. We deserve better! Gov. Palin, please think about someone other than you're own starry eyed dreams. Our party has something good to say . . . it just cannot come out of your mouth . . . no matter how hard you try.
Does she get a new outfit just for her appearance? Will her family be outfitted as well?
The igloo in Alaska called..it said, "send Sarah Palin home right away,
She'll melt in Georgia, as she did in the Presidential election..."
For all that Aaska has means to this country, it is sad to think that it will forgever be known in history as the home of Palin, that Nut from the North. Its really too bad that the GOP still allows her to run around this country in its name. Palin just needs to go home and disappear into the fabric of society and drop the notion of a future national political position. Go back to being a hockey mom.
Tell her to go to another turkey farm. She is too much and can only end up helping the Dems.
Sam
Mccain won by 200,000 votes in Georgia due to the white rednecks who didnt want a black man to win. Palin had nothing to do with it.
Brangelina must be getting jealous at this point...
If Sarah Palin gets on 'Dancing With the Stars', we all need to write the head of programming at ABC and the Disney people who own ABC. Plus if she ever gets on there, I feel sorry for Len Goodman and the other judges if they say anything negative to her, if she was on there. I doubt I'd watch and it would be a waste of a season. Maybe she could get on 'Survivor' or that show where they go to Kajakistan only set it in Zimbabwe if Palin is on there. Just an idea.
Is Alaska paying for this or the RNC????
Go ahead Palin, Democrat Jim Martin has a sure win now. After Chambliss loses, please go back to Alaska and stay there!
Is the RNC going to buy her clothes for this campaign too?
Why isn't she out chopping down a XMAS tree?
The Dumb Dirty Dems are so afraid of Sarah Palin because she can and will become the first woman President in this country and she happens to be a Republican. That's part of the reason why they hate her so much; because she's not in the democratic party.
The media has done a great brainwashing job and a great disservice to this country with their negative remarks and lies about the Republican candidates. But they will go on and continue with their lies, just to get people to read their dirty remarks and listen to their dirty comments. I think they're right when they talk down to Americans and say that the American people are stupid. They do it all the time; It's just that, like I said, people are too stupid to realize it.
As a Dem... this is good news. Keep her in the spotlight.
Who is running Alaska?
Sarah Palin ... Brilliant Woman ... Lost Sole! She is a leader but, needs to focus on the spaces that she controls and governs in Alaska. Create a space for your people ... More power to You! Find and Own IT!!!!!!!!!!
How appropriate – the queen of slime telling voters to vote for the king of slime. Both of their respective campaigns hit new all time lows on the slime slinging meter.
Betcha shes being offered millions and I hope she gets it.
Jim
I see do not see one good value in Palin shes a hypocrite, a lousy mother and a dummy ......... shes also hatefilled. I dont really care if she goes to Georgia. I only drive through Georgia to get to Florida. Its a non entity to me
Doesn't she have a state to govern or something?
To "VA Palin fan", who describes Sarah as "a strong and convicted American leader" (sic). You've got your Alaskans mixed up. The "convicted American" from Alaska is not Sarah Palin. It's Ted Stevens.
Stop, stop!!! NO MORE Palin!!!! I was a republican but I donated to Obama and voted for him and I'm soooooo glad I did!!! So fare he is the smartest president I've seen in Washington in my lifetime and I'm 64 years old!!!
I wish she would go hunting with Dick Cheney.
I wish she would just stop. Someone please take the batteries out of caribou barbie!
so much for retrurning to her job and helping the good people of Alaska...
I sure hope she is the face of the GOP... dems couldn't ask for a better gift
OMG – she's back – does not know enough to stay up north. I thank God I do not live in Georgia.
Excuse me-but doesn't this bimbo have a state to govern? Shows how badly (NOT) she's needed back home.
What a loser.
the day this dumb, brainless Broad get's elected to highest office, Canada, here I come. For good.
You all didnt REALLY think she would go away now did you.
I just wish she would cut to the chase and join Brittney on tour or announce a career into music or movies. She wants the spot light on herself and she will get it one way or another
Sarah:
Go back to Alaska, and stay there. Since he's in your neighborhood, and you're pretty sure he's going to attack us tomorrow, you be a good citizen and keep an eye on him for us. You know, a neighborhood watch kind of josephine or sumthin' like that. Sorry, I gotta go now. Hav'ta head out for the soccer match and all.
Just please, stay in your own neighborhood, and keep shootin' those wolves with Mr. Sarkozy.
I'll bet they asked her to go to Georgia and she thought she was getting foreign policy experience even closer to Russia than her backyard.
She goin down to GA to get some slaughterin done?
Win or lose for Chambliss, for this self righteous Alaskan Demagog, this campaign simply presents another opportunity to satisfy her ambition for the presidential bid in 2012.
why on earth do you all hate her? shes so great lets see u do what she has!...
Sorry Sarah, I forgota tell you who I was referring to. Mr. Pootin. You know, that Russian guy.
Show a little leg, spew a little hate and blow kisses and winks to the rednecks. That is about all the half wit is good for.
Afraid of the Palin effect? You mean the one that cost the GOP the election. Yeah sure thing buddy.
Palin has to be the most comical politcal figure of all time. Maybe before closing her speech for Saxby, she can do an impromtu moose-chili cook-off or have a turkey beheaded and plucked for all her star-struck followers.
Yep, again the media can't get enough of this mediocre miserable nothing from Alaska. And yes Palin supporters I do call her that because that is what she is. Boo hoo if you don't like it. You hypocrites can always dish it out but never take it. Tough, as long as you morons keep propping up this idiot, I'll enjoy chopping her down along with the rest of the mentally challenged who voted McCain or still have some fetish for Caribou Barbie. Now onto the Georgia Senate Race. I cannot imagine in my 39 years on this planet in this life that the voters there would elect a known draft dodger, Saxby Chambliss, over a war hero like Max Cleland (lost both his legs and an arm in Vietnam). Amazes me that the same ignorant monkeys who whined and cried over Bill Clinton not going to Vietnam when most right wing cowards were able to get out of service and enjoy the benefits of student deferments, i.e. Dick Cheney & Saxby Chambliss. I really hope and pray that the voters in Georgia don't fall for this low life Charlatan and send the phoney back into civilian life where he belongs. Come on Georgia, step up to the plate and show the country that you're not a bunch of inbred moronic hicks, rather informed voters who will do the right thing.
If Palin does campaign for Saxby, will she campaign at a turkey slaughterhouse? THAT would be appropriate.
I'm ashamed to be from Georgia. This will seal the deal for Chambliss.
This woman is no longer interested in being governor of Alaska. Doesn't seem to me like she's much interested in anything other than the spotlight and 15 more minutes of fame.
Interesting comments. We here in Illinois have not heard from our do nothing senator in a year and a half. At one time he was elected to represent us so Palin is doing what every politician does. The only silver lining to Obama in the white house instead of Palin is we will be rid of a do nothing senator who has no acomplishments to his name as senator
No higher taxes for the rich. Clinton’s people running the White House. Are you feeling the change? How’s that change working out for you?
Just the fact that she is endorsing chambliss should tip the election to the democrat, but as someone else noted it is georgia....
Please go away forever! What will it take for you to go away? Don't run for President , don't do anything but go away.
If he was smart, he would stay away from her. Others in the GOP don't want anything to do with her.
Palin???.....Palin?????....I dont think I remember who that is.....was she of any importance at anytime????....I...I ... I just can't seem to remember any Sarah Palin...what did she do? hmmmm?...guess I have forgotten because she wasn't worth it!!
It's thanksgiving. Please please please, put a fork in her. She's done!
Why does this article refer to her as "Republican vice presidential nominee"? That is no longer (Thank God) her title. She is FORMER Republican.... Granted, further on in the article it is stated that she lost as a Vice Presidential nominee, but I would hope that she wouldn't continue to be referred to as a nominee for Vice President! She is a Governor, although I don't believe she is qualified for that office any more than for the national office she sought!
her speeches are:
LIES HATE LIES HATE
wink...self promote
LIES HATE LIES HATE
I can't understand this.for the life of me. The Christian far right and "Focus on the Family" group, which Gov. Palin is part of and endorsed by are always stressing "family values". Now Gov Palin has a special needs child, a daughter that is about to become a mother soon with her first grandchild, and a supposed wedding to happen also. Shouldn't THAT be more important than running around the country doing the campaign deal? Family values take a back seat I guess to politics and fame.
PLEASE MAKE IT GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!
She reminds me of a bad Milli Vanilli song...granted they were all bad... no matter how bad the song was, you can't wait to hear the next one to compare it to. I still wonder what happened to the turkey she pardoned...
Does Chambliss want to lose?
She's a cartoon.
Well, it looks like she really plans to support OBAMA and help this country get back on its feet and help us all work together. Her really aim is to make sure that we will go through 4 years of hell, have millions of people unemployeed. Make sure our 401K are worth $0.00, so she can get elected as President. Does she know what the President's job is?
This woman is beyond pathetic. She's such a narcissist it makes me sick. She needs to be home tending to her job as govenor of Alaska, not to mention her downs syndrome baby! She's such a hypocrite! It's all about her!
Look, Palin may be the sweetest apple in the barrel.
However, she is not crunchy--just soggy.
Sarah, one more recommendation. Dancing with the Stars next season. It's you chica, it's you.
Since all this is filtered and moderated by the almighty CNN (balanced media) nothing that does not reflect CNNs view can go through. No wonder the whole thing smells donkyeeash. True, mean and always ungly side of this crowd – friends of CNN. I am wandering how many messages like this you've cast out already.
A lot of you seem concerned about Sarah getting paid by the taxpayers for these appearances, where were you when Barack worked only 143 days in the US Senate, then decided to run for the Presidency?
What about the 161 "present" votes in the Illinois Senate?? Did the taxpayers of Illinois decide they were paying his salary as a "campaigner" instead of a Senator?
Your memory is really short, because those 161 present votes are the proof that we need, that Sarah has more balls than Barack!!
Unfortunately, there is alot of hatred in our country. It is rather cowardly to enter such comments. I continue to be disappointed in people who write very negative comments. By the way, Sarah Palin did not get to keep the clothes.
Give me a break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!After watchin her interview while the turkey was being killed and blood everywhere and she didn't flinch, I was so through with this stupid, clueless woman. "I didn"t hear it – I didn't see it" doesn't work. She will say anything or be anywhere to get her face on tv. I would like to buy her for what she thinks she is worth and sell her for what she is worth. How desperate must the candidate be to get her there. Maybe you can show her interview in the background while she speaks. Maybe she can accuse his opponent of palling around with terrorists. Wake up Republicans – SARAH PALIN IS NOT NOT NOT YOUR FUTURE!!!!! She is an insult to women who actually do have intelligence.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
.....God I love the Republican party! Haven't laughed so much in all my life as I have since Nov 4.
What a bunch of little crybabies. You guys were all tough and mean till you got your butts handed to you. Now you're all "victims" of the mean old nasty liberals you once called "weak".
Dumba$$es. You deserve to be walked on for a few years. Cry me a river you little bed-wetters.
The GOP just doesn't get it. If I were running for office, she would be the last person that I would ask for help. Palin probably feels she needs to redeem herself and that's why she wants to keep her face in the media. She feels she will do just one thing right to make people feel like she has some credibility. She should just lay low for awhile and let the negativity wear off and maybe people will give her a little respect. I don't think she's a bad person, I just think she's misinformed about alot of things and does nothing to educate herself.
Brad, after 8 years of Bush many of us were prepared to vote for Atilla the Hun rather than another Republican. I was a Republican up until Bush.
Sarah Palin doesn't live in a trailer. She lives in a in a $540,000 house in Wasilla. She is rich unlike some of you.
boy she will get everyone to Goout and VOte for the republican Nominee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!....................................cricket...........cricket................................cricket!
LOL! : )
oh boy! here we go again...! same old news on a different day.
If she thinks Africa's a country, does she think Georgia's a city?
Wouldn't it be better if she stayed in her state of Alaska and got back to work first? I noticed that McCain was off to Georgia also right after the election....hmmm just like old time for him....that is not being around to really be a Senator from my state, AGAIN!
That just goes to tell you that there are some people in this country who are totally oblivious to what’s right and what’s wrong. These so called “Conservatives” are just like lemmings… oh yah: a Lemming is a member of a large group of people who blindly follow one another on a course of action that will lead to destruction for all of them…
Does Alaska not require a governor? Why doesn't she do an honest day's work and leave the lower 48 ALONE
After reading this article earlier this morning, I went to my polling place today in Cobb County and voted early for Jim Martin. Sarah Palin's involvement definitely caused me to get off my butt and go vote. Anything that she's involved with needs to be STOPPED!!!! Saxby is just as divisive in Georgia as Palin was during the campaign. The only thing missing is the white sheet.
Ok folks, can you tell I have too much time on my hands. Part of the "new American Economy." She might be totally dumb, but that is not Sarah's fault, and not just GW's (even though it looks like he is working for bin Laden). We get what we pay for and what we vote for. Government can't save us. Let's quit bit_ _ ing and get off our but_ s for a change.
Brad – I'm not understanding how you think Obama or the old Clinton cabinet will hurt America. The Clinton years were the most prosperous in American history for all americans', and he left a surplus. Reagon, Carter, Bush 1 & 2 left huge debts. For the life of me I will never understand, how people think Reagon was a good president. Carter sucked as a president as well. The only good times were during the Clinton years, so why would you want to reinvent those years. I get it you want the Reagon years of depression, or Bush 1 & 2.
Please don't come here, we don't need another non thinking person in Georgia. OMG, thank goodness I'm going on vacation.
Alfred Hitchkock could not stage her Turkey scene any better.
Go back to the rock you crawled out from under.
Will she appear with her swim suit during the campaign?
Chamblis is going to run away with this elections if they keep Sara Pail out of it, remember what repened to MacCain, do not make de same ting hapens again.
The negative comments about Palin proves that people just don't get it when it comes to understanding Republicans. And to defeat Republicans you have to understand them.
Republicans do not believe in a strong government, just a strong army. Basically they think of Government as errand boys and security guards i.e hired help that should know its place. This neither requires intelligence nor leadership skills nor vision. And it certainly means they don't want any candidates that have something to say about they way things ought to be. Republicans can think for themselves (and everyone else too). So to insult a candidates intelligence when it means nothing, absolutely nothing to them is pretty much a losing argument.
She is only going to Georgia so she can hit Lennox Square in Hotlanta and spend some of the campaign cash!
hahaha... stupid liberals are making news for her... ID10Ts
We are betting shes really a Blondie here on lunch break.
SHE IS AN IDIOT. STAY HOME IN ALASKA AND SHOOT MOOSE! KEEP OUT OF POLITICS– YOUR A LOSER it!!!! WATCH RUSSIA FROM YOUR HOUSE.
The artical says of Palin..."losing her bid to become the nation’s first woman to serve as vice president". Um, that is blatantly false. Are there no fact checkers? What about Ferraro? Sloppy work CNN.
Please don't come here, we don't need another non thinking person in Georgia. OMG, thank goodness I'm going on vacation but of course I voted early for Martin. Saxby is worthless and deserves to loose his seat.
Why her? Why not Joe the Plumber?
We need a Break from this unprofessional character.
What can she plant? Seeds of hatred, and self-destruction.
The Great Depression followed several years of Republican government. Then the Democrats had to start fixing the economy, and it took the advent of World War II (ten years later) to complete the recovery. WHY would ANYone in their right mind vote Republican now, when we appear to be in a similar quandry? ESPECIALLY an uneducated, inarticulate, dumb person whose main claim to fame is having been a beauty queen twenty years ago? Just because she happens to possess an unending desire for publicity and power?
@ Sam:
I think you are missing the point. Palin may have raised 100 million dollars for the Republican Party, but she probably also raised 300 million dollars for the Democrats
And nobody doubts that she will draw Republican voters to the polls, but I bet these will be outnumbered by the independents that are reminded by her presence to vote for Martin. Fine by me, really!
To "Jim", who spoke about values...
As a strong Christian with strong moral values, I can tell you that overall I admire Gov. Palin's personal values (aside from that whole "abuse of power" thing. Oh, and the "thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor" thing). What I also look for in a leader, however, is COMPETENCE.
And, by the way, Obama has strong personal values, too. Don't know what you think of McCain, but his multiple affairs while married to his first wife really makes me wonder about him...
Hopefull she continues to speak...
Clearly she and the GOP are complete MORON"S.
They just need to prove themselfs a little bit more so they can kept their base alive.
Indeed Palin keep talking !!!
Since all this is filtered and moderated by the almighty CNN (balanced media) nothing that does not reflect CNNs view can go through. No wonder the whole thing smells donkyeeash. This is a mean crowd for sure, mean and always ungly side of this crowd –
Palin or for that matter no one should pay attention to these mean messages. They just tell a lot about CNN and their friends.
Having the empty-headed Alaskan show up to campaign for him could result in his defeat. I think Sarah should go back to Alaska and continue preparations for her daughter's shotgun wedding.
she's as qualified as hillary is for sos.
Let it go Sarah...please.
There is a shift happening in America. We now know just how dangerous ignorance about governance in government is. Palin represents the old way of bravado and personality on the campaign trail to win an election. We want politicians who can do more than win an election. We want someone who can actually govern. Chambliss needs to run on a plan not personality and Palin's free time would be better spent taking political science, geography and economics at an Alaskan university–actually knowing the job she aspires to. It takes more than a gut check to be an effective president of the United States. We live in a global economy. New rules, my friends.
So? She didn't keep the clothes! What she did do is spread a vile hatred and paranoia that has divided this country to horrific levels... McCain deserved so much better then the legacy she provided.
to brad – you will not be seen nor heard from again in a year's time as you will be eating crow. if you haven't noticed it yet, every time bush speaks about the economy, the market tanked and since obama won the election and speak about the economy, the market soars.
you do the math.
This is simply a test by the RNC to gauge Palin's marketability for 2012. They want to see how well she scores in a traditionally staunch GOP base.
Bye bye GOP. If you think Palin is your savior you've been listening to the Cult Christians too much!
Watching Sara Palin is like watching a horrible car wreck. You know you are going ot be appaled but you look anyway. I don't know why any candidate that wants to win will have toxic Palin anywhere around. For those people who like her, that says a lot for who they are: mediocre low loevel thinkers.
Enough already with this twit. If I were a taxpayer in Alaska i would be very angry. She was elected to Govern the State of Alaska. After all the time she just wasted on the campaign trail in her obviously doomed bid to be Vice President she should stay in Alaska and do the job she was elected to do there. She is so stupid she doesn't even realize she is the laughing stock of this country. The American people spoke when they voted for Obama. She should go quietly into the night and stay there. No one is at all interested in anything she has to say. Good riddance already!!!!
Judging from all the negative comments posted here and those posted to every Sarah Palin story it is clear that Mrs. Palin still has the power to intimidate Mr. Obama’s supporters. Even though Mr. Obama has been elected, his supporters are still afraid of this powerful, accomplished woman.
Sarah Palin continues to be wildly popular with many Americans, of all parties and her strength is not diminished, but rather reinforced by these continued negative, unjustified attacks from the radical left. So keep it up, she grows stronger by the day!
Look, folks – you can complain all you want, but the posting on the new OMB head, Peter Orszag, gets one comment, and the post on Sarah Palin gets close to 400 – kind of a no-brainer about what to report on, eh?
Oh, crap! Now we gotta hear about her every two seconds. Please, CNN, spare us.
Don't forget you'll be speaking to your core constituency in GA, sarah...so don't forget your hood and sheet!!!
PM (n) S:
You know, I used to think Bill was a hoot, but he did NAFTA. I live in Michigan. I know NAFTA, and it is no prize for the U.S.
I think CNN knows a lot of people read Palin stories....just look at the number of comments on this ticker..........she won't go away..she is pure enertainment
I feel bad for Palin's husband, but he's a MORON too!
Is she a member of the KKK?
"How can so many people hate one woman, says something about ones up bring."
So does atrocious grammar.

Someone please put us out of our misery. Put her on a flight back to the Yukon....
The return of the living dead
She's like a chronic rash....just keeps re-appearing. Is the Republican Party really that stupid? I mean, haven't the last 8
lo-o-ong years taught them anything?? I'm a female and I wouldn't support her for dogcatcher.
If just some of the people understood Sarahs platform, she would be welcomed everywhere. Others should understand her philosophy on energy related activities.
Perhaps it's still not too late!
Has there ever been a less informed person on the national stage (G.W. Bush included)? Also, what is the significance of both Palin and Bush's inability to pronounce "nuclear"? Hmmmm.
speaking of "too much" does obama REALLY need to give a speech every bloody day behind his fake "office of the president-elect" podium?
sarah will bring with her joe the slaughterer and that toothless smile of his! boy, chambliss is so cooked!
How exciting and LUCKY. I just emailed my sister in Georgia in case she was unaware.
GO SARAH!
@Lee
"Give it up, Sarah! You have proven you are neither qualified nor suitable, no pun intended, for public office. Go back to college and learn to speak and write correctly."
Your last sentence should apply more to the bloggers on CNN. People need to be careful about casting stones at Sarah Palin for being dumb. Lets not forget that it was Mr. Obama that said we have 57 states in the USA. So if you are going to call Mrs. Palin dumb or stupid, then the same can be said for Mr. Obama.
Boy, she loves attention. What has she really done for the country besides spend $150k on clothes, tell lies and promote divisiviness among Americans?
Please Republicans, you are much smarter than this. She really isn't a good person to represent you, or is she? I'm glad we have Obama!
I think I'll also send the Democratic Party a donation. Hopefully, Chambliss will lose and that crazy woman will go back to the frozen North to pardon one turkey while all the rest are slaughtered in the background. Watta nut.
The thing that amazes me when I read comments from the far right that claim that the center left is so hate-filled, is that I do not remember the Obama crowds EVER calling for the death of McCain or Palin. Never. Not even on election night when Obama beat the "crap" out of McCain and McCain delivered that gracious speech, it was the Republican audience that booed and hissed every time Obama's name was mentioned. Is this supposed to be some type of reverse psychology? Do they not think that we see these things? I'll tell you what... when the far right begins to tell the truth about ANYTHING, then we that populate the center-left will start to pay positive attention to what you people have to say. Until then, give it up.
Is Chambliss trying to throw the race?
If so, he is doing what it takes... The pitbull with lipstick has a track record and she can get-r-dun.
The GOP must be really desperate if they're turning to Palin. Palin lost the election for John McCain. So she riled up a few rednecks, woo hoo, it didn't help McCain, did it?? Nope! Isn't Georgia the redneck capital of the world?? Don't they dislike anyone not pure white? Palin's family is definitely not pure white, got some Alaska Indian blood flowing through their veins, them Palin's.
SHE NEEDS TO STAY IN ALASKA, AND DO WHAT SHE DOES BEST SHOOT MOOSE!!!!!! .... OR MARRY RUDY....... WHAT A PAIR, THEY BOTH BELIEVE THEY ARE QUALIFIED TO BE PRESIDENT, NEITHER ONE OF THEM LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD, THEY SHOULD JUST FADE INTO THE SUNSET, AND GIVE US ALL SOME RELIEF OF HEARING THEIR NAMES EVER AGAIN!!!
Gary November 25th, 2008 11:46 am ET
You know what Democrats…this isn't this about you. It's the Republicans gig.
----------------------–
Gary, yeah, we know.... but ya see it's like a freakin' TRAIN WRECK! We just can't stop looking!....and it's not like REAL people are getting hurt..... so we're LAUGHING at little pu$$ies like YOU!
Big Strong Republicans..... what a bunch of CRYBABIES!
# of GOP wanna revive their party: A lot!
# of GOP who are disagreeing: A lot!
# of GOP that wanna run for President: Priceless!
TO: Phil in NC November 25th, 2008 11:45 am ET
regarding this comment:
Why are we stuck on Palin here. Obama is running the country into the ground, we are going to have to make it through 4 years of an administration even worse than Bush's. I need some money, man! C'mon! Dang!
Listen up, you need to complain to the current lame duck president I'm sure you voted for. President-Elect Obama is NOT president yet, although he's doing more for our country currently than Bush. Get it together, you redneck! Dang!
all you hate people leave palin out . Palin will be our next president.
and about the animals dont you thank that the meaid had some to do with that. and dont you eat this . Im happy that you got Obama and let
someone like palin have her turn she will have my turn and you people that can read go to her web and read about this great person.
Why are so many of you angry? What has made you so angry? Sarah Palin is an intelligent and smart person who has worked hard to get where she is. Are all of you unemployed or what? GO get a life and do something worthwhile for your fellow man. It will make you feel better.
I see few comments from people on CNN that I feel are from people who actually live on Planet earth.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and ligthen up. And remember it's OK TO SAY "MERRY CHRISTMAS"
I wonder if Sarah ever returned that $150,000 worth of clothes the GOP "loaned" to her. I'm betting.......... NOT!!!
She was supposed to donate them all to charity- haven't heard a word, have you????
Will this PINHEAD ever go away???
Please go away! Although go ahead and campaign it should be good for Martin
Sarah... Sarah...Sarah... haven't you learned your lesson the world would be better off if you just stayed in Alaska, you know the country right next to Russia where Putin rears his ugly head over Alaska
If only the moose lady would have campaigned for Bush . . . . . . . . .
I hope she does for this senate election what she did for the presidential election.
We need that 59th seat in the senate and she can give it to us.
Go Sarah!!
Chuck in L.A.:
You're spot on. When I read that person's comment, I thought the same thing, and laughed. You took the words right out of my mouth!
to solidify the end of days send palin to help with your campaign... to think the gop would have someone as dumb as george w himself as their conerstone is pretty sad...chuck hagel should be switching over to the dems at any time now and will gladly trade lieberman for him
Go back to Alaska and do the job you were elected and are being paid to do.
What is wrong in the country is that people have too many hates in their heart. We don't seem to get along with anyone. We don't sharing or exchange cultures. I really respect anyone who runs for public office and spends their time to help others , it is very special for Sarah as femal and a mother who wants to do as such. God bless american and Sharah
Does anybody out there even care one bit about what backwoods Sara Palin is up to ? I had almost completely forgot about her.... let her descend into oblivion peacefully....please CNN...
stay in alaska
Dems better watch out. She's 1xx pounds of twisted steel, and rompin', stompin' dynamite!
Politics=Hollywood for people who can't act.
"Mrs. Palin continues to inspire many American...." Yes, those "toothless, jumpsuit wearing, animal killing, angry, etc."
Brenda and all you Bush followers,
It amazes me how you completely ignore the failure of Bush and his band of circus acts. Face it. BUSH IS THE WORST PRESIDENT IN US HISTORY. I know you hate to hear it but, it's proven to be true. Your backing of Palin just shows how the Republican party has become the pary of know-nothing.
Noah the Liberals are not responsible for the Rebuplicans lost. People like Sara Palin who only attact the base is the reason. This country is not a divided country like the Rebuplicans want to keep it.
Bring back the ROCKSTAR. We miss Gov Palin!!!!
inat2: The difference is... Palin lost and will not be our VP (in fact, she caused the loss for her and McCain).
By a landslide, Obama won the election. Now we want to hear how he's going to help us and fix the problems that the republicans caused over the years. He's behaving more presidential than Bush ever did, and we are glad he's talking to us whenever possible. We WANT to hear what he has to say. DUH.
Palin needs to stop talking. She hasn't figured out that she's not helping anyone.
Saxby should win this hands down. Welcome to Georgia; Govenor Palin
The "Serious" Republicans are running a marathon to get away from this person and she just won't go away. I see a third party evolving out of this fray. Oh, wait.......did I say "evolving?" Whatever was I thinking!
It would be the "I'm Right, I'm Right, I'm ALWAYS Right Because God Told Me I'm Right Party."
give me a break..............go away Palin.
To user Palin’s own oxymoron phrase, “certainly probably” she will campaign herself into irrelevancy.
Reading these blogs is the best laugh I have had in years!
If her candidate loses, then it will be absolutely official....the chick is a total loser and the conservative NUT jobs that hate this nation so much are out of style and out of time.
God, please let this woman prove to us that we have learned from our mistakes and moved on to a brighter future...one with out elected officials of absolute traitors such as her and her kind!
It's amazing reading all the negative comments on this site about her. Jealousy is a very bad thing. Palin 2012!
Palin is a democrat in disguise. How else do you explain the damage she's done to the GOP? Welcome to Georgia, Sarah, the dems needed you...
Yes, inat2, the President Elect must give a speech every day. If he did not, you would complain that he is doing nothing. As far as I can tell, he is stepping in to fill the leadership vacuum created by Bush's notable absence and his silence on our economic troubles.
First of all, SP isn't even worth the trouble of commenting. The real issue is how Chambliss won this seat in the first place.
To tie a Vietnam hero in Max Cleland to Bin Laden and Saddam is an outright tragedy. Max left three limbs on the battlefield for this country and GA voters allowed themselvesto elect SB? Tragic, shame on you GA for 6 yrs ago and for even giving him this opportunity to retain his seat.
"Palin still has the power to intimidate Mr. Obama’s supporters. Even though Mr. Obama has been elected, his supporters are still afraid of this powerful, accomplished woman."
Lyle, haven't you been reading people's comments? She's pure entertainment, like Paris Hilton. She "accomplished" nothing, and is in no way "powerful" or "intimidating". We love laughing at the big joke she's become, that's why people read/write about her. You're delusional. As stated before, she's the car wreck on the side of the road you really don't want to see, but you just can't help it. Ha, ha, ha!
Why would any candidate with an intelligence quotient higher than a rock
allow Ms. Palin to appear on their behalf at any time? She is a complete joke and should be returning to Alaska, where she will, one would hope, actually attend to her state's business for a change as opposed to her shameless campaign of self-promotion. She is the political equivalent of The View: all talk, no substance. Go home, and shoot a moose or two, and leave the rest of us alone.
Why won't this moron just go home !
At least she will get a bit more mileage than 6 weeks from her $ 150,000 wardrbobe
This is what they trott out to "help" their candidate? Did they learn NOTHING from November 4th? As a wise bunny once said "What a maroon!"
Ms. Palin, please, go away. Although I'm a Democrat, I actually do want to see the GOP have effective, thoughtful and deliberative leadership. The welfare of our country depends on both parties aspiring to be such. And you are a total, complete drag on the hopes of the Republican Party ever leading this country in the right direction. With you, we can only go back to the stone ages. (Oh wait, you don't even believe in that—the earth is just a meek 6,000 years old. My bad.)
If anybody wonders why there's such a strong anti- Palin sentiment. A- This country is tired of ignorant, smug and misguided idiots in office. She came onto the national scene dissing Obama in her well read tele-prompter speech at the RNC. Then she proved to be an empty suit in her interviews. So for all you Palin supporters, as long as she's in the public eye, there will always be hate for your Barbie.
Sarah Palin is the perfect poster child for what ails the Republicans. Not too bright, good at lying, and loaded for moose when they're up against a bear.
indiePA – I'm with you, I wouldn't nominate her for dog catcher, either. She'd probably end up killing the dog with a high powered rifle. Anyway, I think she's more like herpes than a rash.
A Republican Party in total disarray. Palin is not what is needed to attract new republicans particularly Women, Latinos, African & Asian Americans. Republican party as it is today represents the 20th century – white racist Americal – NOT the 21st!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Brad November 25th, 2008 12:16 pm ET
I want all the Obamabots, who have obviously added their negative comments here, to get back to me in a year when "wonder boy " and his reincarnated Clinton cabinet have gotten us into an even bigger mess than we're already in. Who will they bash then???????
**************************************************************
Gosh! You are so smart, being able to see into the future and all. I guess we should all just stop and listen to you, since you're obviously the one who knows what's going to happen.
I mean, gee, it was so bad when Clinton was in office.... no war, 20 million new jobs created, America enjoying it's place as the most respected country in the world.
Just AWFUL back then.
Idiot.
Dont she have a state to run.
inat2....do you live in this world dude...we need to hear his ideas and opinions of how to deal with the bush mess...what we don't need is s.p. burble on all her hate..she is what is wrong with the GOP
Sorry,I'm just getting sssooooooo tired of this woman.Nothing like a failed politician to attempt to keep her minimal prospects afloat by appearing at every rally possible.Next week,Sarah opens the new Wal-
Mart.Video at eleven.
She should bring about as much value to this guy's campaign as she brought to McCain's. What is he thinking?
Are you people kidding me. This is Georgia we're talking about. The "good old boys" will be out in force. I'm a Democrat and a realist. Their hatred is going to show through just like in Arkansas where McCain won by more than 20 points.
Bring on the dumbest airhead in the world. (Maybe she can bring a turkey and crumpets). ENOUGH MAKE HER GO AWAY!!!!
Hope she does for the repug candidate what she did for McCain.
(HELP HIM LOSE, THAT IS)
Lolz. Chambliss loses....
Rosemary Storaska November 25th, 2008 11:26 am ET------
You Go Girl! Team Sarah is now over the 58,000 mark, approaching 100,000, in just a few short weeks. We are with you weather a Democratic, Independent or a Republican in puruit of 'Country First over politics or party!.
------------------
Well, gee...... where to even start with this!
LOL...... hard to believe there is this level of ignorance in our Country.
For "Lyle"
"Intimidate" is by far the wrong word. It's "infuriate".
Why? Because of all of her lies and innuendos that were time and time again disproved, and the idiot just kept on repeating them. We need UNITY in this country and Palyin' was doing her best to DIVIDE the country.
I hope most Georgians will see the truth and get out and vote for a true leader, not a road block to true progress.
rosemary- weather? is she a tropical storm now?
She has just forgotten about Alaska i guess.
Lyle -
You are delusional and need to take your meds. We are not commenting negatively about her because we are afraid or intimidated by her. We comment negatively because she is the antithesis of everything we stand for, believe in, and expect from our leaders. She is not powerful, nor is she accomplished. She is also not wildly popular across the political spectrum. Dems generally despise her and what she stands for. Most women can't stand her – we are generally pro-choice, after all. And our attacks on her are 100% justified; much more justified than her attacks on PE Obama ever were. Lyle, she is not even educated. Get a life.
thank you, "hockey mil.....uh...MOM"
for making it SSOOOOO EASY for the presidential team-elect
It is growing rather obivous that "slaughterhouse Sarah" is losing ground (or shall I say, tundra) in Alaska....as the "Alaskans for Truth" are no longer willing to sit idly by, whist the good gov'nor perpetrates a fraud ~ and on so many fronts.
AL November 25th, 2008 11:51 am ET
Will she be traveling with Todd, Piper, Picked, Pack, Pickled and Pepper also…Who's paying for it and will they all get a new wardrobe for the trip?
That was funny................
Hey Lyle get off those drugs they are frying your brain cells! You are dillusional!
Please. From a Quarter Century Club member of the GOP, go away. You do more harm than good.
Please.
Lyle,
No Lyle, she doesn't scare us. She ANNOYS us.
Palin is a dumb as a doorknob and just as interesting as one.
the idiot need to be at home taking care of her pregnant daughter and planning the shot wedding. There still will be a wedding, right?
Sara, Stay in Alaska where you belong. Just remember McCain lost because of you. Not that I was for McCain anyway. Glad Obama won.
You are nothing but a contemptious and a negative campaigner.
It seems you didn't learn from your past mistakes or were the least bit critical of yourself in anyway.
She is just like roaches.....never goes away
I am not an Amercian citizen, but I can tell you this:
Obama has given people around the world hope. He is the real deal.
Sarah Palin, probably is a nice lady BUT she "pretends" too much, hence every time she opens her mouth, she puts her foot in it.
Boop -boop – be – doop ! Wink , wink !
to all the crybaby Republicans getting their talking points from Rush and Sean to complain about Obama carrying out policy pronouncements under the aegis of Office of President Elect: hang in there. In January he'll be sworn in as the actual POTUS. Then you'll have one less thing to complain about. Right? In the meantime, you should really get somebody to change your diaper.
For the purpose that she's needed here (rallying the Evangelical base), she'll be a help...
But Repulicans have to be out of their minds if they think she is a serious national candidate. Polls don't lie...Democrats disapproved of her at Bush-like levels, Independents had a high negative opinion of her (near the 60% range), and really only self-identified Republicans supported her. If Republicans want to lose national elections by winning 40-45% of the vote, then by all means, please keep trotting her out on the national stage. It's not like people don't know who she is, she's opened her mouth a million times and we've all heard from her. And don't give the "filter of the MSM" line...she sounded equally terrible on Hannity's show as she did with Katie Couric...she's just an uneducated woman of below-average intelligence and there's only so many ways to cover that up.
What slaughtering plant is she going to go to this time (in GA). Wow, she is crusing for a brusing. she is not the brightest light in the lamp!
She makes white women look really dumb. I thank God that I've gotten ahead with my teaching degree and she does not reflect me at all. As a white woman I feel that she is the poorest representative for us possible.
@ Lyle...no one is afraid of Palin.......We just love to see her make a fool of herself.......
Part of me really wants you to go away...but a small part of me wants you to get the GOP nomination in 2012..wonderful!!
Joy, Vancouver, WA November 25th, 2008 11:00 am ET
Who is taking care of her special needs baby while she is advancing her political career?
AND THE ANSWER IS TO YOUR QUESTION, THE REAL MOTHER OF BABY WHICH IS NOT PALIN.
When will she run for Mrs. America?
To "Truth Be Told" and others who said similar things:
I really hope you're right. But I have some family in Georgia and many friends from Georgia and I can tell you that they – and the rest of the deep south – don't think like the rest of us. They think the bigger your Bible (and it better be the King James Version), the better your qualifications for office. Knowledge of world events, policies, the economy, etc., is secondary, because God will provide the wisdom necessary.
A lot of Georgians love Palin.
Let me just add that I pray for God's wisdom for our leaders every day, but I also believe in electing qualified people – regardless of their Bibles.
YOUR 15 MINUTES ARE UP!!!
This may have already been stated but the reason Palin is going to Georgia is to raise cash for Chambliss. She gets lots of mileage out of her folksiness and her pro gun stance, especially in rural GA.
I better hide now that Palin is traveling South to Georgia – if she knows how to find Georgia that is. We have folks in Georgia that relish the hard core social values of Palin. It is bad enough to see Chambliss on television every ten minutes with another anti-Martin commercial. Now I will have to suffer with hearing the annoying voice of Palin too.
inat2:
Well, in the total absence of ANY forthcoming information, strategies or statements from the tool that is supposed to be running things, I for one am glad that our next president is stepping up and working on the situation EVENT THOUGH IT ISN'T HIS JOB YET.
At least SOMEBODY is taking the future of our country seriously...
The devil went down to Georgia.
He was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind
He was way behind
And he was willing to make a deal....
(with all due reference to Charlie Daniels)
I am neither a Republican or a Democrat – I vote for whomever makes sense. But Sarah Palin? Give me a break! An inarticulate, uneducated former beauty queen with a desire for publicity and power wants all the attention she can get, and who thinks "it's all about ME, ME, ME" - how can she help Jim Martin???
According to Halloween IX Jason won't die either.
Wink! Wink!
America...
how did it go from the nation of the smartest people to the nation in which 46% of the electorate voted for this moron?
When will this torture end???? This woman doesn't need a rifle to kill... she need only open her mouth and speak! PLEASE MAKE IT STOP!!!
Sarah Palin. The gift that keeps on giving – to the Democrats! Go for it, Sarah. The Democrats will get to 60 seats yet.
Lyle-
What is the color of the sky in your delusion? Granted, the best things we could do as Obama supporters, is just ignore these stories. But, yes, we are tired of reading about her.
But don't confuse that with fear. By all means, run her in 2012. We would be more than pleased to see that. The hate and division politics that got Bush re-elected in 2004 are history. There are not enough voters who agree with her extreme views for her to win.
Everybody vote for Jim Martin It is all we can hope for
ENOUGH!!
@Lyle What has palin accomplished? read some facts man and she isn't very pretty at all either
Well here comes Stuck in Stupid herself coming back home to the Mother Planet state of Stuck in Stupid (Georgia).
Lord, please bless the intellectually less fortunate souls that believe in trickle down economics. Grant them enough intelligence to see through the fear tactics of those that seek to use them for their own gain. Please allow them to see that you cannot blame Clinton for the eight years after his presidency (Future) while blaming the Democratic Congress for our current situation (Present) and Obama for the two months prior to his Presidency (Past). Please show them that people with different colors on their skin are every bit as good if not better than themselves. Grant them the humility to realize that they have no right to project their own flawed morals upon others that seek to share their lives together in peace and tolerance. Show them that you cannot drill for more oil and protect our planet at the same time. Lord, please raise the price of gas continuously until we finally find something else. Please teach them how to spell so they don't look so dumb when they try to respond to this.
Palin seems to have been bitten by the " Gotta Stay In The Media bug"!!!! Didn't she mess things up enough for McCain!!!!
Palin needs to stay at home with her children, especially with her infant son and stop trying to continue to strive for that "5 minutes of fame" that she received in the past few months. She's a disgrace to motherhood and her husband needs to "MAN UP" and stop being "Mr Mom" and get out into the workforce and provide for his family!!!
Good, that will really motivate the democrats to go out a vote against Chambliss. Martin will definitely win!
Lyle – Only to her on kind which is some white people. Other people of color find Sara Palin very offense to them. She doesn't related well to other people of color in this country so she can not progress with out them. We just prove that in November 2008.
Lyle its not that people are afraid of her, I doubt anyone at anytime felt threatened by her, except perhaps McCain, it's the fact that she is ignorant about the world and she will not go away. A majority of people dont want to hear anything else from her again. The stuff she said on the campaign trail should disqualify her from ever speaking publicly again.
It seems like Sarah desparately wants to be anywhere but Alaska. And it looks like the majority of REAL Americans want her to be nowhere else but Alaska. Sorry Plain.
To Lyle @ 12.48p.m.
You said "Obama supporters are afraid of this accomplished woman, etc., etc. "?
Is your I.Q. in the negative?
Two clowns for the price of one.They both have annoying voices and even more annoying Agendas.
I thought Saxby Chamblis wanted to win! Thank you Sarah Palin, this should be a landslide this time around for the Dems!
Go away, Palin...FOREVER!
Glad to hear that Sarah is keeping on the national stage. Good signs for 2012!
Palin/Rice 2012!
go away
I find it incredibly frightening that so many people actually like the twit and not only like her think she would do well in power. I understand about demagoguery and mob mentality. Her speeches are about the same as a corporate mission statement. Those mission statements don't actually say anything meaningful, they are nothing but a few made up words in corporate speak, and they are long and tedious. I could see her as president and like Rome the republic will fall and instead of an empire for a form of gov't we adopt the PTA model, that is so familiar to "hockey moms". Since she was confused about the whole Africa as continent concept, has anyone told her what the deal is with Australia. Does anyone know where she is on her history knowledge ? I would bet money she thinks the cold war was a war fought in the artic.
The Dems can count on another seat in the Senate after this....
You just gotta love these Palinites who somehow arrive at the analysis that anyone pointing out the obvious intellectual short comings of Sarah Palin must be sexist, or that we don't understand her, or that we are "intimidated" by her. Yeah, OK then! You just go on believing that my mavericky friends. Meanwhile, those 56 million of us who just defeated your gal are all counting on you sustaining just that level of stupidity so we can continue to win elections for the foreseeable future. Keep it up!
poor chambliss – if she's as dumb for him as she was for mccain, the dems will be sure to have the 60 seats that they need. someone should really tell her that she is, in fact, stupido
Um, Aren't you the Governor of Alaska?? Is it ok to spend that much time that far from the state you are sworn to serve and protect??
Did she ever get back to Katie Couric with her answer?
Has anyone given Senator Chambliss the bad news? Did someone confirm for her that this is the STATE of Georgia (not the country she got so used to reading about on cue cards in the general election)?
Well, I guess that about does it for Chambliss. A simple kiss of death to his campaign.
"and meanwhile, back in Alaska, a village is missing an idiot". Loved it! I haven't laughed so hard since the Couric interview! Thanks, Chris!
OH GAWD!!! WOULD SHE JUST GO AWAY ALREADY!!!???
Go back to Alaska and go to work.
She's loving this attention, but you have to figure
that anyone who appears in beauty contests would
love this limelight. Unfortunately she's making a
joke out of herself. The turkey episode was the
icing on the cake for me. Bye Sarah...you're old news!
Would she please just go away!!
For all of you that still don't get why so many dislike Sara Palin, there is nothing left to say to you.
However, Please keep Sara Palin in Alaska, and preferably out of politics. She has instigated the racists in our country and brought them out of the woodwork. Here in Mississippi, McCain and Palin did NOTHING but give the “good old boy” “the south will rise again” double talking racists the opportunity to relate to her and spew hatred and miss- information.
She is not stupid or miss informed but she is dangerous and would have left McCain in the dust if given the opportunity. Because she herself has such poor judgment on her own qualifications, she is not qualified or vetted or informed or educated enough to be in National politics. Please keep Sara Palin in Alaska, and preferably out of politics
"and meanwhile, back in Alaska, a village is missing an idiot". Loved it! I haven't laughed so hard since the Couric interview! Thanks, Chris!
Great & intelligent comments, you unbelievably rude and obnoxious liberals. Nothing has "changed" with you people...except your Messiah reigns in January! Speaking of which, what was Obama doing to help/represent Illinois for the LAST 2 YEARS THAT HE CAMPAIGNED FOR PRESIDENT? Answers, please? Unbelievable how amazingly ignorant and blinded some of you people continue to be!
Why won't she just go AWAY! She has to be one of the most annoying individual I've ever come across in my entire life.
LOL @ inat2. President Elect Obama has been seen less on all of the airwaves than Palin and he WON the election. He actually stayed somewhat low-pro when she was talking to anyone who waould listen. Yes, the country wants to hear from him.
Anyone who thinks she is briliant, must be pretty stupid!
Palin go home and do your job, or at least try.
Oh, Oh, Oh!!! That woman thinks she has the most influence on American voters now. For her, doing politics in this country is just a piece of cake and so much fun: shopping, dressing up, winking, saying Gotcha, Betcha...? Then people are crazy about her...
Funny...
just when i thought we were finished with this woman!
go back to alaska and put ur "actual executive responsibilities"
to good use!!!
What planet is Palin coming from? She was a ridicule locally and internationaly. She is campaigning for herself. She is embarked in a damage control process after her disastrous running as a VP nominee. Now, if she thinks that she is the future of the Republican then it shows how bad that party is. There is no future. Please, to the media, unplug the microphone to this parrot.
palin 14:56
palin 14:57
palin 14:58
palin 14:59
Why? I mean I really don't understand. Why?
Also, as for Obama making a lot of address to the nation, what's wrong with that we currently have a president who does nothing so I'm glad he's keeping us informed about whats going on in the government. Is that so bad? I mean whats wrong with the guy whos gonna be running our country for the next 4 – 8 years, telling us whats going on and where our country's headed. IN case you havent been reading the news, Pretty much any time he announces a new cabinet/high level post the stocks rally. Please think next time you post.
Lyle...please, Sarah Palin "accomplished"? President-elect Obama supporters "intimidated" by her? Someone who had to attend five colleges to graduate with a journalism degree and still cannot correctly pronounce the word "nuclear" is neither accomplished nor intimidating - except to maybe some unsuspecting moose in Alaska. Like the AMC Pacer, she needs to disappear and become only a faint and laughable memory.
CNN STOP COVERING THIS IDIOT
Woud someone please stop the madness? Who cares if she campaigns for the Senator in Georgia? If he wants her there, so be it. I'm sure he knows how many people dislike this woman and if he loses the race, then he can use her as an escape goat. Personally, I wish she would go away and do her job in Alaska. Hopefully, she had brushed up on her English speaking skills and will learn to put words together in a coherent manner so that people in the lower 48 will understand what she is trying to convey in her tirades at the podium.
hahahahahahahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahaha
hahahahahahahahahaha
Looks like Georgia may go Purple!!!!!
I guess Saxby really doesn't want the job.
Well, you know that Sarah had to visit the place where Russia recently invaded. You know and the President there who thinks she's a knockout. So she really thought she was showing her International awareness by going to Georgia:) You betcha!
GO SARAH
GO PALIN, GO!
This is a sure fire way to make the
GOP candidate a huge.....ALSO RAN!
She has had a taste of relevance and now cannot live without it- obviously.
Oh please...we burnt-out enough already of Palin and her meaningless gibber.
We Georgian is old Demcrat ,..now it about time to return back to our roots. By nature we dont like outsider tell us what to do because we are a close knit family. Bless my State.
I'm sorry, but doesn't this woman HAVE A JOB?
Alaskan tax dollars at work. (I'm just talking about her salary, which she continues to collect, whether working on anything for the betterment of her state or not.)
Will this Alaskan ditz ever get the message, you are used goods, much like your 13 suitcases with the 200 K wardrobe.
A great day for the democratic candidate and it didn`t cost him a dime.
All she wants to do is continue to spread her hate and anti-Obama rhetoric. She need to go to Alaska where she is needed.
For Palin supporters to claim that we're afraid of her is true. After the last eight years, we should all be very afraid of morons with power.
Good. Maybe she can make it two humiliating defeats in a row. Maybe then you media types can FINALLY send her back to obscurity which is where she belongs in the first place.
slaughter some more turkeys.you witch from the frozen north.we seen enough of you for a lifetime.GO HOME WITCH
I also too think that it's kinda cute, guys and gals, how neat it is that the governor is campaigning to help Saxby loose the runoff. We are a nation divided by intelect, the stupids vote like sheep for the Republicans, who are no longer true conservatives, while the smart vote for whats best for our country. False christians hiding behind doublespeak leading our nations rednecks to the slaughterhouse and economic downfall amuses me. Go ahead, vote against your own best interests, see what it will get you. Economy in the toilet, but record profits for the rich. Don't you get it yet? Pro life, until 18, then lets have a war mentality won't save your children. Jesus died for our sins, we might as well use them while we've got them doesn't go over well as an argument at the pearly gates.
She certainly is a polarizing figure - some despise her, some love her. But any Republican party figure with any brains knows she was a fatal drag on the McCain campaign. She can rally the Republican base, and that might do the trick for Chambliss, but the more she sashays in front of the camera and does her thing, the more the future of the Republican party goes down the tubes. She's come to represent that wing of the party that wants to purify its message and drive off anyone who isn't a true believer in their cause, and that's a narrow group. That will not win a general election.
So speaking as a Democrat: Glad to see you're back, Sarah.
I am very liberal – so are my comments – and l rarely get my comments printed. it isn't about liberal v. conservative here. I have no idea what the criteria is, since some of my dumber comments come through, and the smart ones don't. So calm down – you repubs are sooo paranoid.
Doesn't Palin have a state to run?
She's the Republican Cheerleader...they will use her whenever possible...All you need to do is pay her $150,000 so she can get her hair and makeup done and get all dressed up in designer names she's never heard of and she's ready to say anything that comes up in her mind.
She will never stay in Alaska again.
Senator John Mc Cain, this woman you gave your party and all the rest of us is rather disturbing don't you think also?
Can we please give Alaska, and SP, back to Russia. Perhaps there someone would tell her to just shut up already.
You people are incapable of thinking for yourselves. Let the press tell you what to think – they'll be happy to lead you around by the nose so you don't have to tax those little brains of yours. Like her or not, no one has been treated less fairly by the press than Sarah Palin. And where are the women's rights advocates? Oh that's right, they stand up for women only when they are in agreement with their views. If you don't think killing unborn babies is acceptable; if you are one of those dreaded Christians – they'll push you under the bus without thinking twice.
DONT THEY GET THAT SHE LOSES MORE VOTES THAN SHE GETS?!
.....huh?
She needs to take Geography/History and Political Science instead of wasting everybody's time and I sure hope that she's isn't using our tax dollars for this trip !
"...the nation’s first woman to serve as vice president"? Guess you forgot about Geralding Ferraro.
It is simply amazing to me that folks blame McCain/Palin for the racist
remarks, etc., during and after the campaign. I think folks ought to look
at the tabloids and see who was the most racist and I think you will find that the OBAMA campaign and it's minions where right up their.
I sincerely hope that in the midst of all of her campaigns, talk-shows and publicity stunts in the lower-48–all while Alaska is beginning to suffer its own economic crisis–that the voters of Alaska get sick of having an absentee governor in power. I live in the lower 48, but if I were an Alaska resident, I'd be truly insulted that she's campaigning for someone in Georgia when her own state is in danger of failing economically (due to the falling price of oil).
One would hope she would prioritize her responsibilities as governor instead of campaigning for others during this time.
Its sad that she is so dumb, and people will still listen to her, if I was in Georgia I would vote against every person she campaigns for, I dont hate her, but I think she is just the dumbest person beside GW Bush to join politics..
Way to go Governor Palin!
500 comments in 3 hours??
And you wonder why the media won't leave her alone.
Alaska must be the perfect State, with no problems and nothing that needs the governor to oversee. That must be the reason Palin is down here in Georgia.
I guess it must be since people in that state are raising thousands of dollars to thank Palin for her VP run instead of using that money to help the less fortunate.
GO AWAY Palin!
I could definitley say the same for the Clintons! Would you both please just go away?????
BBB
I wonder, if Sarah Failing/Palin, gave the
clothes back to the GOP, is she going
to need a NEW WARDROBE? Maybe
hubby Todd will get a new set of SILK
BOXERS! Maybe Piper will get a new
$700.00 HANDBAG?
Please, do we really need anymore "news" about Sarah Palin? It's becoming sickening.
You people who are still in support of this woman are soooooo funny.
She may not be entirely stupid, but she demonstrated clearly that she was not suited to be our VP. Why are you still harping on her running in 2012? Rather than running to Georgia to campaign she needs to be reading and trying to comprehend everything she can about this country – not just Alaska, current policies and international relations. She needs to read a book, not just look at the pictures.
You people want to know why she is constantly being bashed?? DID YOU WATCH THE COURIC & GIBSON INTERVIEWS????? She didn't have a clue! Did you REALLY listen to her campain speeches??? Nothing but negativity and hate!!! Nothing insightful, nothing to prove to those of us with a brain that she was qualified.
She did more harm than good in the presidential election. You guys need to face that fact and deal with it. And if you can't...well they do say that birds of a feather....
Bad move! That is political suicide!
If this guy wants to win he should tell Palin to stay in Alaska.....
Palin 2012. I know it's only 4 years from now, but Hussein will have us so distraught by then we'll be clamoring for...........wait for it.................Change.
Probably a good thing for Alaskans that their governor is on the road again.
I can hear her now
" I'm here to support Chambliss and make sure Russia never invades this state again."
Boise, ID
Take the log out of your own eye first!
Doesn't Palin have a job in Alaska? How important or relevant could she be by missing this much work? I'm sure Alaskans do not appreciate her absences. Most of us who are fortunate enough to be employed in this bad economy, would be fired for missing this much work.
Oh yeah, I can't wait. She was so effective on her last campaign trail – stirring up hatred and fear, that is. All I can say is if this is the type of person Republicans want out there representing them, have at it.
I thought when the election was over, she would return to Alaska. Whoever thought she would appeal to the professional, intelligent, voting woman was out of their minds. Will someone please give her a reality show, set in Alaska, called Wannabee Barbie and her Creepy Husband. Doesn't anyone else find his "hovering" creepy.
Sarah Palin represents the worst of America. Her "fans" are the least informed of all voters...
Have any of you ever seen the movie, " Being There," with Peter Sellers? Palin is the female version in the role Sellers played. Whatever University granted her a degree, should have their accredidation revoked.
Oh God no. Please, someone tell this woman the party's over.
Like that green stuff on the walls of an old refrigerator, you scrape it off but it growing coming back.
haha...hahaha.....HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH...
who gives a rats azz about palin, stay in alaska
Now wait a minute folks! Nobody hates Sarah. She's funny. Not that she knows it. And, she's fun. I love commenting about Sarah. It's just that she's terminally ignorant. Up until Sarah, I thought ignorance was something that could be corrected. Doesn't she get any help from the handlers?
I do wish she'd move on to the swimsuit part of the contest. She'll do a lot better then.
Whooooppppeeeeeeee.... More SNL fodder!
Won't this mouth ever go away?
Palin...honey...just go back to Alaska and pardon a turkey. And make sure it's not going to get slaughtered while you pardon.
Send her out to campaign with all the rednecks. They'll love her. But, then, they were already going to vote for Chambliss any way, weren't they. That's Sarah's problem – she excites the people who are already on-board. She apparently holds no sway over the moderates and independents who will be the real focus of this election.
I can not believe that a sane person would listen to Sarah Palin.
This lady should play the part of the "Scarecrow in the Wizard of Oz." He wished for a brain.
governor of alaska seems to be a part time position.
Does this woman never take care of her children? I thought she was in the midst of budget negotiations in good 'ole Alaska. She isn't running her state either. Keep on reminding America of your vast knowledge of issues and command of the English language, Sarah, and you'll be a shoe-in to lose in Iowa and New Hampshire and then, at last, leave the stage. Maybe she can lose her re-election campaign first. She's like a bad penny.
To "A Real Feminist:"
Excellent points! Palin seemed to imply that not traveling, not reading, not having much education,not knowing Washington issues, made her a better candidate. I personally feel we need smart people in government. Not folksy characters.
I, SERIOUSLY, cannot believe this woman is still talking! Why is anybody even listening? I don't know another adult who is even remotely as uninformed as Sarah Palin...and I'm a social worker!!!
WHO CARES!
Well, this oughtta sound the dell knell for Saxby. Love ya, mean it, wink wink.
Intimidate, Lyle? Give me a break. Many Americans do not like race-baiting, small-minded, egocentrics who simply don't know when to keep their mouths shut. This woman needs to get educated (and I'm not talking about five community colleges in six years type "educated"), and start reading. She needs to check in to life outside Wasilla. Palin doesn't GET Americans, American values, American ideals, or American ethics. She doesn't seem to get much, except how to be opportunistic and self-serving. The bigger the smile, the bigger the lie. She needs to just go away and leave decent Americans alone!
Palin, please don't stop spreading the message of lower taxes for all, smaller gov't, stronger military and more self-reliance. As opposed to barry O's message of "spread the wealth around" and create an entire country of welfare recipients ..
Repugs= Morons... I pray Saxby gets screwed because of this.
Can Palin do for Chambliss what she did for McCain? You betcha!
Misery loves company!
Thats the best news I've heard all day.
Go Al Franken, end the madness.
Lynnda from Mississippi
Governor Palin is a force to be reckoned with and an authentic reformer who walks the talk.
I noticed Obama winking in a couple of video clips recently!
From someone that has a "carpetbagger" for a senator, let me say this, EVERYONE GO HOME AND LET GEORGIANS DECIDE WHAT IS GOOD FOR GEORGIA
I for one am VERY pleased that Sarah is on the campaign trail for the Republican Senator... it means we are that much closer to a Democrat Super Majority! Come on Sarah, do what you do best... give everyone a reason to vote for the other side!
Thanks, but no thanks. I was neutral about Saxby Chambliss, but the news of Palin flying from Alaska to stump in Georgia sealed the deal for me. I voted for Martin in the early voting today. Please tell me, Saxby, that she has a round trip ticket! We don't need another carpetbagger here.
I believe one of the weaknesses of Democracy as a political system is that it allows mediocrities like Sarah Palin not only to survive but also to thrive. And, of course, "the people" are ultimately to blame.
I'm torn because I, like most people am sick of seeing her and hearing about her....
on the other hand... since she's just overexposing herself and doing even more damage to her own party... I can live with the fact that she won't go away. The longer she sticks around,. the more the general public hates her.
And deservedly so.
Palin campaigning in Georgia? Why do I get the feeling she is going to end up somewhere in the former Soviet Union?
Palin is a Gimmick. To all of you completely out of touch, no sense of reality, Palin fanatics: 99.99% of you are not competent enough to hold any form of public office, and shes less competent than most of you. Are you really that delusional to think that anyone is actually afraid of this fake political prowess your trying to create?? The only reason people (with a shred of intelligence) get so fired up about her, is that they are insulted that the GOP would put the nation in harms way, by even entertaining the idea of putting that incompetent religious fanatic in a possible place of power, just to scrounge up a few gun firing, take away the right to choose, christian fanatic votes
Great – perfect pair since both are comfortable with negative campaigning. Did anyone ask Chambliss if he wanted her to campaign for him. I hope McCain and the RNC are happy, they have created a monster!
They just don't get it.....do they.
lol Bill
If Saxby wins by more votes than he got in the prior November election, the claim will be that she helped. But f he wins by less, or loses, she will have hurt him..so it is a gamble for the Republicans promoting her. Maybe this will put her on the back burner-altho she will always be intriguing as she is the most unknowledable (but -prettiest) person ever to have run for VP/she makes Dan Quayle look like a genius.She would indeed be better off in the entertainment arena/that would do for everybody who wants this Country to survive, a big favor...
Why???? Didn't she get the memo???? You are ridculously useless!
Lyle, are you kidding – powerful and accomplished – at what? You could not have possibly seen the video of the turkey pardon.
Actually, I don't wany Palin to stay in Alaska. I want her front and center and on view.
Otherwise, people might forget how totally unqualified she is.
I want her political obituary written in the next few months, in indelible ink.
Dear God, make it go away!
Senator Max Cleland was an intelligent good guy who lost three limbs
defending the U.S.A. during the Vietnam war. Chambliss trashed him in the worst and disrespectful way by attacking his character and integrity which we now know that Chambliss totally lacks. It should be a no-brainer for Republican Georgians to throw the bum out now that the facts are known. Having Palin campaign for him is typical Republican politics but not good for "We the People." Come on Republican Georgians, show the rest of the country that you are not rednecks and hicks from the sticks but that you are thoughtful, intelligent, and full of integrity. Vote for moderate Jim Martin, a stand up guy who can work with the Obama administration to get us out of these messes we all are in up to our necks, and then some.
The Palin/McCain ticket, as she liked to call it, did worse in Alaska than George W. Bush in 2004. Her popularity there dropped 27 points in the two months after she sent every qualified man, woman and child residing int he state a $1,200 check, on top of the $2,069 check they received a month later. That giveway has left the state, which figured on $80 per barrel oil, in deep financial straits.
Hopefully, she can work the same magic on Chambliss, the man who called war hero Senator Max Cleland "unpatriotic," and who may have stolen the 2002 election through vote rigging.
"understand her philosophy on energy related issues" I believe that would be drill, baby, drill, tax the oil men and give to Alaskans, build a pipeline and give to Alaskans, drill in the protected wilderness and give to Alaskans, kill the polar bears, moose, elk, wolves, and turkeys in order to drill, and GIVE TO ALASKANS. Oh, and just "GIVE to Alaskans," early and often. No wonder they like her and Stevens...they are great at grabbing tax dollars from the rest of us. Yes, Palin is the gift that keeps on giving...to the "pro-Americans" white, wealthy, and certain that God is blessing every word they try to say...also.
When the socialist regime that this country was just fooled into electing is exposed for what it really is, anti-American (which most liberals are), racist, anti-capitalist(which most liberals are), it will need more then just media protection to shield it from angry Americans. Palin or Romney will walk easily into the presidency in 2012- THANK GOD
maybe the republicans don't really want to win anymore. get her off the stage!!
Got tired of bashing Bush?
this woman's endorsement would be enough to convince me to vote AGAINSt whoever it may be.
Sen. Saxby Chambliss might have invited her to secret Moose chiili dinner she couldn't refuse.Enjoy...get back home as soon as you can Gov Palin.No one here likes you..Can't you get that........!!!!!
Not again...........does Palin ever know when to quit? Are the Repubs that desperate? Haven't they learned yet? They keep digging their hole deeper & deeper!
Typical of the party of the confederate to send their Top Symbol of Southern Womanhood down there to do the dirty work of racism . I no this wont post, but it felt good to write this.
, For Lyle.
It is President elect Obama. Have some respect for you new
to be President.
I'm a proud Republican living in Georgia and want desperately for Sen. Saxby Chambliss to remain for a second term.
To that point, for the love of God – KEEP PALIN AS FAR AWAY FROM US AS POSSIBLE !!!!
TALK ABOUT RUNNING IT IN THE GROUND! GET OVER YOURSELF PALIN! YOU ARE A J O K E ! ! !
The Palin Puzzle: Doesn't it scare anyone out there that this sort of person is in our political structure and seems to be going hell bent for election? Really frightens me to think she had a chance to become our vice president, but there she was on the ticket!!! How many others like her are there? We need to do a reality check on our elected people, especially ones like Senator Teddy Kennedy: a life-long alcoholic now with some sort of brain disease and still making decisions for us! God help us!! Someone needs to.
I'm sick of hearing about her in the media every day! When will she go away?!?
After the turkey shoot..is that a pun? Tina Fey has a lot of catching up to do.
What a joke! Please make her go away.
Palin is the Britney Spears of the Republican party (except Britney's smarter)
I'm more interested in the handsome cop next to her...what is this article about again???
Guess the kids can wait. Maybe they can fool around some more while mom is off gallavantin around the south. Dad's got his snow machine racin to do. Boy good thing that pot of caribou she made for Gretha is still keepin
OH PLEASE,PLEASE,PLEASE SOMEBOBY SHUT HER UP. WITH HER CHILDESS VOLCABULARY. SARAH PLEASE SHUT UP. CAN WE GO 1 DAY WITHOUT HEARING FROM YOU?
Gonna take some slaughtered turkeys with her???
What a joke! Martin should count his lucky stars.
Go Dems!!!
what is she campaigning for ? the stupidest woman in the world ?
Why won't she just go away. She should stay in Alaska and actually do the job she was elected to do. If I lived in Alaska I would be talking impeachment about now.
I wonder if she is going to bring Ayers, Socilaism, Joe the plumber, tito the builder, blah, blah, blah.
We've heard the speech already.
Does she even know Saxby or where Georgia is located?
Doesn't this bimbo have a job already? Palin's taken women back a hundred years with her trying to flirt and wink her way to the white house. Women, stand up against Palin's horrible behavior!!!
DEAD WOMAN WALKING
Lighten up, everybody! She needs the pay from her speaking tour to pay off the bill for all those clothes!
Just the fact that McCain no longer even mentions Sarah Palin's name is an indication that he would rather keep his feeling to himself. I'm sure he's about sick of her. She's like an annoying bug that you just can't hit with the fly swatter.
She's sure to help get the ignorant hillbilly vote sewn up good n' tight.
I am a white woman, and yes, Sarah Palin instills fear in me. She makes me fearful because I can't believe that such an incompetent and disingenuous person was foisted upon the American electorate. This demonstrates the low opinion the RNC has of the American Population. They clearly chose her to court the women who were upset about Hillary Clinton, and to appease the base, who were appalled that McCain was (before he ran) pro-choice. She was an interesting choice, because who better to make outlandish insinuations and speak with such ugliness than a pretty mom-type. I am further fearful because so many of my less intelligent countrymen and women apparently fell for the ruse, and believe whatever they are told. If you truly believe this woman is competent to run this country, I implore you to refrain from voting in the future, and to seriously consider reading a newspaper.
Sarah Palin should stay in Alaska and start taking care of tthat baby, Im so tired of seeing her poor duaghter Willow taking on the job, and now with Bristol pregnant too. She has a lot more family issues and issues in Alaska. Leave the rest of the country alone , I dont want to see that face anymore IM DONE and SHE'S DONE
Sarah Palin has no credentials and so I fail to understand how her opinions matter in another state. For that matter, Alaska has some very serious issues of its own, including plummeting oil prices, and so she should be doing the work she is paid to do, serving as governor of the state.
You have to put away your hatred of this woman and look at the facts of this situation. Yes, Sarah Palin is a very polarizing person; she routinely uses hate speech and has very right wing stances on issues such as abortion and gun control.
But this campaign is in Georgia. Georgia is a traditionally very red state. Even the 'Dixiecrats" of the 70s and 80s were conservatives who couldn't run on the Republican ticket because Lincoln tainted the name by freeing the slaves over 100 years ago (imagine his audacity!). Hate speech and right wing values play in Georgia. And remember the type of campaign Chambliss used to defeat war hero Max Cleland six years ago–it was full of cheap shots and hate.
So, why are they bringing Sarah Palin down to Georgia? Because her type of campaigning is just the red meat that riles up the base to get out and vote, and there's a lot of this type of base to rile up in Georgia. This move would backfire in a large part of the country, but it just may be the thing that gets Chambliss over the top.
i wonder if nick ayers is related to bill, and if so, what's the extent of sarah's relationship with him is...
She is such an opportunist that doesn’t want to loose the fame she achieved over a night with the help of a desperate man who just wanted to win the election, so I think we are going to hear from her more and more till 2012 election. But the sad part is that neither she has any knowledge about the world nor is she eager to learn things. I’m personally sick of her nonsense speeches.
Sadly, Chambliss is probably going to win this, despite Caribou Barbie's liability factor. This is GEORGIA, folks... we're not talking about a think tank where voters actually use logic and reason to decide. McSame and Pain (no, that is NOT a typo) won this state... and "Sax-beh" only lost by a moosehair. Pun intended.
I'm afraid he's got it, regardless of how ridiculous his campaigners are.
But I'll you, I WOULD LOVE to see her onstage in downtown Atlanta.... now THAT would be entertainment!
liberals are so full of hate.
I this AILIN PALIN chick for real.Is she that stupid to think she can help anyone with her boring,unintelligent remarks.Why doesn't someone just put her in a crate with another dog and ship prepaid to alaskaaaaaaaaaaaa.Mark DO NOT RETURN TO SENDER.
This is all McCain's fault.No one heard of this nitwit until someone turned over a barrel and found it.Lost Pageant and now losing credibility of all women.
hey gov read the memo you lost please go back to alaska
This ensures that Chambliss will lose.
Oh for the love of God
I wish Sarah Palin would just go away. That women is a loser.
Chambliss what are you smoking dude the quickest way to end your policital career is to invite Palin this lady even makes Bush look smart and by the way invite hannity ,joe the plummer rush drugbaugh these are the same people that put the last nail in the rep party.PLEASE LET HER KEEP TALKING THIS REALLY HELPS THE DEM,PARTY
Thanks to community organizers, Palin now resides back in Alaska.
. . . Her element, I'm sure.
Wow. None of the other stories even come close. As much as you all hate her, you'd think you'd have something better to give your attention to.
Awesome Tina fey will have more material...things were begining to look very boring
I don't get it. She has a special needs baby that doesn't even look like it's ever bonded with her. She has a pregnant teen – and 2 other daughters – where are her priorities? She chose to have all those kids – and sure, you can have a career and children – but campaigning for someone who isn't on the national stage and only at the state level, and yes, he's a senator – but how's that supposed to help alaskans out? Who's running her state? Who's taking care of her family? Oh, yeah, that's right – no one.
Keep showing her yaking away with the turkey grinder behind her. That should help Chambliss.
yes now were guaranteed to win!!!
Oh, Good God! Won't that bubbleheaded woman EVER go away???
Hide your turkeys! LOLOL
Thank you, Thank you Sarah for campaigning for Saxby Chambliss. Should make it a landslide for the Democrat contender Jim Martin, nothing like a loser campaigning for another loser. Nuff said.
now if she didnt benefit john mccain in any way...what makes her think she can benefit saxby? shes so full of herself. she should seriously stay at home and take care of her kids.im thinking of running for some office at some point in the future,im 43, but sarah palin is no role model.a woman with a baby who has downs syndrome... from that point on she should have resigned from office to concentrate on her family and her pregnant teenage daughter... looks like she wasnt around for the sex talk with her daughter either!
Senator Chambliss must be a poor student of history, and out of touch with the majority of Americans. While Ms. Palin may have personal appeal, she has dearth of knowledge on important, yet basic, concepts such as constitutional law, geography, and debate rules. She further seems to be unable to simply say “I don’t know” when applicable. Finally, her naive but jingoistic approach to international relations makes her very dangerous. So go ahead Senator, the majority of those of us who can vote in this country applaud you choice for closer; we can always use more seats in the senate.
That is hilarious. She'll wind up at the border of Russia and Georgia
Oh my stars.....is she back on the scene, I knew she couldn't stay up in Alaska for long, she is missing all the attention.
Is there any chance that she will hook up with good old boy Joe the plumber along the way, se we can see another sideshow....now there will be some interesting speeches to be had again if those two get together...she'll start rambling and he'll be giving advice on the economy.
Perhaps they can both start their book tours on the trail....won't those two books make interesting reading!!!!!......NOT!!!
The AP: "Hmm, I wonder what Palin's doing today?"
Reality: "Shouldn't we be covering the new administration, and examine the apparent shift in policy coming from Mr. Obama?"
The AP: "Nah, I'm too afraid of what I might find. We've fought too hard for Obama to expose him now. I wonder if Palin will brutally cut down a Christmas tree?"
Reality: "Oy-vey!"
I've always been glad I don't live in Georgia.
She went on the Campaign trail for Mccain and look what happen well fellow democrats looks like we will be getting another seat YAHOO YIPPIE!!
What an Idiot she is, attention seeker, power hungry dumb of a person. The rest of the country will be sparsely populated like Alaska if this witch is allowed any where near Washington. Help! Please put this rogue away she can't just leave us alone so thank you John McCain.
and furthermore.... if there is any chance this crazy lady considers running for president in 2012.... this is laughable at this point.please everyone go to sarah palins website where you can leave her comments!
She does know shes going to the state of Georgia and not the country right?
And I thought the days of the travelling freak shows were long gone.
Faiz,
I think it should be; "Who loves Palin EXCEPT the Republican base."
Apparently, Republicans love failed policies and sound bytes strung together in an incoherent manner.
This Thanksgiving, I'm thankful she and McCain didn't win!
Sarah Palin to the rescue......yeah right!!!!!!!!!!
She don't get it nor dose the GOP....It's over morons!!!!!
Excellent! This will help another Democract. It's about time we get things done around here. I do find it bewildering that the Repubs actually think this woman helps them??? I sure hope she runs for President in 2012. Obama won't even need to campaign. Palin will do it for him!
Go Obama !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am so tired of this dumb woman that thinks she represents the majority of women in our country. The only women she represents are the far right wing evangelicals and the uneducated who want a woman just like them involved in the future of America. The rest of us want an intelligent, well educated woman. She is totally clueless about everything outside of Alaska and the reason I didn't vote for McCain. She villifies everything negative about people.
will somebody please give her a valium and put her to bed!
God, spare us from this awful woman..................
Can you say "kiss of death"?
ROFLMAO!
Palin's out to sink another ship. She's the best thing that ever happened to the Democrats.
If Chambliss loses, maybe Republicans will finally start making the connection between rolling out Palin and losing elections (let's hope not, though.)
Exactly what are the responsibilities of Governor of Alaska? They don't seem to be particularly demanding given the current incumbent has been spending her time yakking it up with whoever will have her on air. Now she's spending her time campaigning in Georgia. Who's minding the store back home?
Please tell me this is a nightmare, I can't make it stop! I know Todd is pushing her out there, cause he wanted to live in the White House and now he has to go back to being Mr. Mom while she calls the shots. He thought he would be able to lay back and have people wait on him. Todd, give it a break, nobody wants the Palin family around. Alaska is your home, I mean where else can you be first dude? Sarah only calls yoiu that to make you feel less important, cause the fact of the matter is, you're nothing more than her servant.
CNN – Stop focusing on this poser... We voted for someone that can bring us real change – She's been voted out, so give us the relief that we voted for.... No MORE Palin!
I hear there are turkeys to be slaughtered at Pilgrim's Pride headquarters in Georgia. Thank you Republicans for this awesome gift of Palin you have bestowed upon us, the gift that keeps on giving!
I find it kinda funny that most of the people that keep telling Palin to go back to Alaska are calling her "Sara" or "Plain." Having trouble getting her name right? Anyways, believe it or not, Palin actually did help the Republican party quite a bit. She certainly got alot more people to vote and helped to get a fair amount of votes. I know everyone's been blaming her for McCain not getting elected, but she was the boost of votes he needed till the economy went down the tubes. McCain had no answers for fixing the economy which was his downfall. I know I'll get flamed for that, but it's not like I really care. I'm sure half the commenters will bash Palin for her "stupidity", but you should remember that she was nominated with two days to go before the presidential nomination. Let's see how you guys do with two days to know absolutely everything about the government when you had no intentions of becoming a vice president. Who cares about her "old" views? Honestly, she showed more life than Biden did.
Sarah Palin "...losing her bid to become the nation’s first woman to serve as vice president." Silly me, I was under the belief that Geraldine Ferraro was the first female Vice Presidential candidate representing a major American political party.
Oh please, please, please....someone get this woman back to Alaska and off the front page! If I see her name or face much more, I'll be forced into seclusion. She's a nitwit who appeals to other nitwits....and I guess there's quite a contingency of them out there.
this woman is like a stray animal..... you give it some food a couple of times then you can't get rid of it. GO HOME and STAY.
AMERICAS DUMB DUMB .
Sounds as if the GOP is scraping the bottom of the barrel again.
Woman to Woman Sara Paliar go home to your son, don't your son need you. Let things die down some, your previous campaging was lacking quite a bit of substance. In about 2 years then reappear, right now is not the time.
Palin is etting back the Women's movement by at least 10 years!
Can't you ever let go, Palin?
Don's you see how you are the ridicule of your party?
You know those birthday candles that you blow out and blow out and blow out, and they just keep coming right back. Well this dear governor reminds me so much of those.
Can't wait to see Palin back on the trail! Love all you liberals and your hate! The fact of the matter is, If you didn't want to hear about her then you wouldnt have taken time to click the link, read the story, and commented! PALIN 2012!!! You only hate her because she is effective.
I thought she was sorting thru the designer clothes she didn't pay for - packed in horribly expensive DESIGNER luggage she didn't pay for! Sounds like a reformer maverick taking home the pork! RNC should make an accounting to the public since it was public money who purchased it and it should be the public who benefit either by way of auction or charity! We won't forget.
You people are incapable of thinking for yourselves. Let the press tell you what to think – they'll be happy to lead you around by the nose so you don't have to tax those little brains of yours. Like her or not, no one has been treated less fairly by the press than Sarah Palin. And where are the women's rights advocates? Oh that's right, they stand up for women only when they are in agreement with their views. If you don't think abortion is acceptable; if you are one of those dreaded Christians – they'll push you under the bus without thinking twice.
Jimmy H, you have to be kidding. Palin/Rice in '12? I think Rice, herself is much more qualified to lead this nation than Palin. Rice is hyper intelligent, educated, experienced and eloquent. And I think Rice is much too smart to pick someone as Palin as her running mate. I have much respect for Rice and none for Palin. I'm a woman and a democrat.
I hope Palin get the Republican nomination in 4 years!!!!
Because she CANNOT win!!
Sarah who?
Hopefully she does the same for Chambliss as she did for McCain...
I wonder if she's going to use Alaskan taxpayer money to fly down. I bet the Palin family has always wanted to go to Atlanta, so they're all flying down. Atlanta has some great shopping.
And the republicans are wondering why they are loosing so bad!
Oprah doesn't want her. Remember when Palin begged to be on Oprah's show during election season and Oprah told her that she didn't want candidates on her show until *after* the election. Well, this is Oprah just keeping her promise and picking up a few ratings along the way. Let me remind everyone that Oprah is a staunch pro-choice supporter. I hardly doubt she wants Palin on her show so they can talk about books and politics.
This is GREAT news for the democrats. What are they thinking . LOL.
Maybe she can visit her friend Mrs. S. Carolina while she is down south-such as and therefore and the Iraq. It's very funny how she came out all full of herself at the RNC and in the end she was exposed as a complete idiot. The scary part is that there is any percentage of this country that buys her ridiculous act.
So many folks have already stated my sentiments but would this ridiculous wind bag of a one time political figure if you can even call her that just plain and simple disappear into the dark of night. For Crying out loud Palin just stay in Alaska.
Joe the Ignorant still believes in her. Why won't she just go away???
She is the gift that keeps on giving, if you're Leno, Olberman or Letterman. Isn't her 15 up yet? Maybe there is a Turkey farm she can do a photo op at.
I AM REALLY ANGRY AT ALL YOUR READERS ALWAYS SAYING UGLY THINGS ABOUT SARAH PALIN WHY CAN'T THEY LEAVE HER ALONE ?AND GIVE A CHANCE INSTEAD?
Sarah WHO!!!!! I thought she went back to live with the moose, flying over shooting animals, and trying to figure out where Russia is ...she actually thinks anyone in the south gives a rats a_s what she thinks. Go Home and do your job in Alaska, wink–wink–wink. You betcha!
Palin can make every guy in America happy.... beat Houston's record.
Do us all a favor and go back to Alaska!!!!!!!!!!
If she was the Gov. of my state and started parading all over the country spouting off stupid remarks and acting like a fool, I would start a petion to remove her from office. Either stay in Alaska and govern or step aside.
My, my - just look at all the "hits" Sarah gets on these blogs! Just can't stand someone who's tough, accomplished, and authentic - and a woman, to boot - and NOT a rubber chicken like the rest of you
- can you?
HAHAHAHA Thanks for helping the democrats again sarah!
Bet she bills Chambliss for her travel expenses and if she drags her kids along Chambliss will be invoiced for their travel, chauffeur, security detail, meals and clothing. First Dude Todd also shows up? Same additional costs. Then she will submit travel reimbursement requests to the State of Alaska for her travel, plus her children, plus her husband, plus their meals (no per diem-actual costs) plus clothing, plus hair stylists and clothing, including cleaning. U betcha! "This politicking, ya know, its been just great."
While she keeps leaving the state she is supposed to govern, who is running it?
How appropriate: A communion of the rogues!
This is a true sign of how low the Repubs have suken; to have to rely on the likes of Ms P!
She couldn't bring a win for herself and McCain, and now she's helping someone else? ...Please!
Dumber than Bush?
YOU BETCHA!
Go home, Caribou Barbie!
Who is this lady? She will do anything to stay in the public eye. She is the Paris Hilton of politics.
Georgians may love her but the turkeys there are finding safe places to hide. Anything on Palin (post election) should be filed under 'Entertainment'...Hilarious!
(Is the governor's position in Alaska 'on call'?)
The devil went down to Georgia...
why would they let Palin campaign? Do republicans want to lose? Get a clue guys!
Prediction - Salin will fire up some voters to turn out in support of Saxby. The negative turning point for Martin was the "help" of Al Gore, the biggest joke ever!!!!! Republicans will win this race.
In the immortal words of Motley Crue ... "don't go away mad ... just GO AWAY!"
Send in the clowns.
Sarah Palin, will you please go AWAY?
@ Suzanne
I certainly hope you mean "Yukon" in a generic description of the far north ... because if you mean the "Yukon Territory" which happens to be part of Canada ... we don't want her here anymore than you do!
@ Governor Palin
Just keep talking ... because the more you talk ... the less and less likely it will be that anyone considers you a credible candidate for anything in the future.
Sarah Palin – Stay in Alaska. You don't do any good anywhere else. Look after your poor son, surely he needs you a lot more than the American people. Americans do not want to hear any more about you. Enough already!!
"aware", you really need to stop eating paint chips for lunch and breathing in ether all the time! LOL that is one of the most pitiful and pathetic defenses I've ever seen of Caribou Barbie. And to the nimrods who are complaining that CNN is being "biased" and "unfair", understand something, you are outnumbered ten to one. If you go on MSN's site there are just the same number or more of a majority of this country that can't stand her. You people really are pathetic. Going from a proud coalition of Democrats, Independents and Republicans under Reagan and even Bush Sr., you're now reduced to inane fools that invent truths to make yourselves look informed and factual. And you're not even close! So continue to yell at the wind because no one cares anymore. Wow, if I were in your shoes I'd be more concerned with getting my party together after the crushing defeats you all suffered three weeks ago. But it proves my point time and time again with your useless bantor, you just can't accept reality, defeat, common sense and humility, there is a time when you have to just give up and live with reality. Again, immensely proud to see the right wing in defeated ruins.
It is sad to see so much hatred in these comments. It seems no matter which side of the isle you reside, civility no longer exists. Sad indeed.
I'm sure there are turkeys, bears and moose in Alaska who are breathing a sigh of relief. I can hear them saying, "Good, she's gone".
Great! Here comes another GOP lost when this Gal gets involved.
Sarah Palin is the Mama of the nation and will continue to do good for those in the Republican Party. She is young, fresh female, so all adhere to Mama Position! Palin only wants good for all, however so many are to close minded a ticket of Palin/Clinton would probably work.
Jim Martin must be elated. Go Jim!
Great, keep her face out there so Dems can win in 2012.
With over 70 precent of true Americans saying she should go back to Alaska and stay there.Don't see how she will help any Politician.I was told years ago all politicians were crooked some just get caught at it.She's living proof of it.
why would anyone in georgia care what the gov of alaska thinks about their senate race? and don't the folks in alaska want her to actually DO something up there? she is never there, unless she is pardoning turkeys.
As a Georgia voter, who has already voted, I wish she would just go home and tend to her own business. I agree that Gov of Alaska must be a part time job.
I think it's great that Palin is willing to help the GOP out. She helped pull the rug out from under McCain and can now do so again. Besides she'll be able to see the opposite shore of Russia from across the Atlantic this time.
Geraldine Ferraro was the first woman VP candidate, don't forget, NOT Palin.
The republicans are giving rednecks a bad name.
AAARRGGHH! No Mas...No Mas!
No. VA Palin fan November 25th, 2008 11:06 am ET
You go Sarah! Once the ridiculous media bias about you subsides, the entire public will see clearly the strong and convicted American leader that you are.
--------------------------------
She definitely SHOULD be convicted...that's for sure.
How is palin effective? she effectively lost the race for Mccain, she has done nothing for or even in alaska for three months, except the turkey fiasco and a few just palin stupid interviews with moose chili and RNC clothes. Please enlighten us with any of her ACTUAL accomplishments. the gas pipeline? haha.
Two comments.
Will we ever get rid of her? She is campaigning for Sarah.
Is she still drawing her salary for Alaska governor when she is never there?
Doesn't she understand? She is a big part as to why McCain lost.
Let's face it....The ONLY reason she's being invited to speak on Chambliss' behalf is because all the folks who are ignorant enough to vote for him are the exact same ones who think Sarah Palin is the greatest politician alive, and he can't win without them.
If the GOP guy loses, maybe she will shut up and go away – yeah, right.
JB's Top Oxymoron list:
Jumbo Shrimp
Military Intelligence
Cool Republican
Can you say Diva.
p.s. Remind your friends at the PAC that you guys lost and the election is over, no ads need to be run anymore.
CNN loves to have negative Palin stuff, the more the better. Say something bad about Obama and these comments are shut off at about ten comment! The Dems are sore winners and should hold their breath for awhile while their guy starts his new job.
Why the GOP can't just let her tend to Alaska and her brood is beyond me. The exit polls clearly showed that she alienated a huge plurality of independent voters and cost McCain any chance he might have had otherwise, yet here they are trotting her out again!!
Insanity= doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results.They must be all smiles in the Martin camp. What a gift to them.
Here comes the 60th. vote!!!
Begs the question – why? Every individual American I ever met was a fine person...my team plays rugby teams from New York and New Hampshire every year...and we have forged new friendships over the years with our fine American friends. You don't deserve this...
There are 300 million of you folks, one-half of you are women...out of that vast number surely you can choose a much better, brighter one than this to lead!
Poor Sen. Chambliss. He doesn't have a chance now! How could she do this to him?
When is moose hunting season? Maybe then we can get a break.
Palin one question. Where are your children? Especially the baby that needs you the most. I am sorry to say but I see a subtle disconnect here. Something just isn't right!
The new Sara Palin movie: The Creature That Refused To Die.......
I think by the end of the next four years of give away programs it will be nice to elect someone like Sara Palin that at least has a record of cutting cost and excess spending . That's o.k. Sara keep on doing what you like to do. The Democratic controlled Congress got us in this mess, there is always 2012 !!!!
Palin needs to do some heavy duty studying before she does any more campaigning. She could improve her diction, understanding of world affairs, understanding of neo-liberalism and its policies that have put us into this economic mess, education, health, labor, etc. Her extreme lack of polish and education hurt the McCain ticket beyond description
How is it that this Lady [ just kidding ] who has less brain capacity than a 5th grader have so much support ? Has Stupidity become the new plauge on this country ?!?!?!?!?!?
This moron should stay in Alaska and try to be the Govenor that they elected. Or was she ever running it to begin with?. Who is in charge in her state her husband? She is such a farce and we need to get on with the rest of the problems in this country .STOP giving her air time. She is disgusting.
I'm willing to admit it: I'm a Dem, and I'm terribly afraid of Palin. Not because she's so accomplished or so smart, but because she's not. And people seem to like her. If you haven't noticed, when we are uninformed on a topic, its hard to make good choices. Kids who don't know about condoms have unprotected sex and get pregnant (see articles on the Palin girl). Patients who don't understand why a medication will help them sometimes choose to stop taking it. Politicians who don't know which regions are continents and which are countries make bad foreign policy decisions. And people are actually cheering "Palin 2012"? Of course that scares me.
I hope her campaigning in GA brings tons of intelligent liberals and intelligent Republicans/independents to the polls. If you know someone there, call them and tell them to vote for Martin!
I don't think Sarah is doing the GOP any good. Wish she would just go home and leave us alone
Wow! She is so popular. The largest number of responses are logged for articals about her. I guess she will always be in the news thanks to everyone on here.
Enough is Enough!!! Go home and take care of your family! Your have a son that needs your love and caring for. It is your responsibility to take care of him not someone elses.....
You also have your daughter to look after and soon grandbaby.. Maybe you should have lectured to her more????????
GO AWAY........................................
Have we not had enough of Sara Palin? She's nothing more than fodder for the late night talk shows.
Thank GOD! This should be the final nail in Saxby Chambliss' LOOOOONG overdue political coffin. You GO MooseMom!
Bad choice – she lost a lot of support for Sen. McCain and now she is doing it again for Sen. Chambliss. Will she ever learn to stay home and do what is supposed to be good for her State?
AH !!! How some love the limelight--– GO AWAY, Sarah
I am no fan of Palin's policy idea's...but could you people stop attacking her and callinh her stupid names. You act like two year olds who are spoiled. Palin has every right to campaign...I also will add that the other side should knock off the nasty comments about Hillary. Why is it when its a women politician you feel you can do this. More power to Palin as far as I am concerned. She is no dummy and you people should watch out...she will be back.
Jesus.... when will this stop? This nightmare of her talking.
How Palin can be of any help in this senator's campaing is beyond me. After all of the dumb comments she has made in the last two/three months, I certainly would want to keep away (a long way) from her if I were running for reelection as a republican. If that's all the repubs have to look to for campaign support, they have a real problem.
Ed, Santa Fe, NM November 25th, 2008 11:41 am ET
Doesn't this boob have a job she was elected to do?
_________________________
You mean like the boob who was elected U.S. Senator and then immediately spent TWO YEARS campaigning for president? You mean THAT boob???????????
stop giving that woman press coverage !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can we afford another wardrobe for this illiterate tart?
I really wonder how Sarah Palin's kids are faring! How can they miss school for so many months? Who's teaching them homework? They do not appear to be homeschooled and WE KNOW that they have missed school for so many weeks already! Their mother's fixation on herself and her political future seems to have taken away all her attention from them. Why have so many kids if they can't be educated adequately. Her pregnant daughter tells a lot about the attention she got from her parents! A mother is important to daughters! Obama's kids went to school the entire time!
Rudy is the kitchen sink, this is the bathroom sink!
If she is the hope of the GOP, then that is just SAD!!!!!!
I'm a working mother and I'm horrified at how much of a disgrace she is. I have no clue how women can support her.
I must be missing something.
Unfortunately she really appeals to the anti-intellectual NASCAR types she has been brought in to "excite". Hopefully the urban and suburb voter will step up now that they are uncumbered by an African-American candidate on the ballot. Considering the number of great educational institutions in the State, e.g. Georgia Tech and Emory, it is difficult to understand why the State has not managed to shed its less than progressive image. It may still all be about racial bias.
Let me see all you Obama Haters. Palin gave her citizens 1 Billion dollars back out of a surplus, which means she knows you can only give away money if you have it. Obama wants to give out 600 Billion on top of a deficit (not surplus) of 400+ billion to increase the Federal Debt to 11 TRILLION dollars. And of course the great Country of China gets to buy this debt of ours. So who is smart and who is stupid? I don't need to go to Harvard for 20 years to know that being TRILLIONS in debt to China is not good for our Country.
Thanks for coming to the ATL as I will DEFINITELY be going to cast my vote for Jim Martin!!!!
Go back home and learn about the country/world first – then try this again many, many years from now!!
tina fay is getting more work. cool.
Go for it Sarah! We need more Democrats in the house and senate to get this country back on track!
Can someone tell this dumb ditzo that the campaigning part is over.........AND SHE LOST?? lolol
Doesn't she have a job??? I thought she was the Governor of Alaska. Do they really pay her... or does she just turn in her expenses?
I wonder if the RNC loaned her one of her outfits to were?
Thanks a lot Sarah!!! We have early voting again here in Georgia and now that you're coming, I will DEFINITELY go and cast my vote for Jim Martin!!
Go back home honey and learn about the country, the world and then maybe many, many years from now, you'll be ready.......
Wow – you guys win and are still as hateful as ever. Poor winners.
I noticed my Pro-Palin comments never make it.
Take a look at the majority of the comments every time she is mentioned. The majority of the American people don't want her anywhere near the White House.
She's only back in the spotlight because people want to make money off of her.
McCain. Admit it. You made a mistake choosing her. Period.
I think Palin & Dan Qyale would be a great team......
.... to complete the destruction of the Republican Party!!!!!
Vote Palin/Qyale.
She has done so much for the GOP already– I hope she brings her turkey abbatoir with her .She just does not know when enough is enough. Did someone invite her? Why?
why isn't this woman home with her 5 kids.............
and did the pregnant daughter ever get married..............
As an American woman who was thrilled to see Barack Obama elected to the presidency, I'm hoping Sarah Palin does as much good for Saxby Chambliss as she did for John McCain. Woman or not, Sarah Palin does represent me.
I dont get get it, Sarah Palin has the intelligence of a rock; yet the right embraces her as if she is some dynamic woman who has a plan to get America back to conservatism in 2012. Wake up, she is not intelligent; she is not the future of anyones politics. The right should be ashamed of themselves bringing a knife to a gunfight in the general election and should be ashamed now using her to boost Chambliss. Chambliss is the SAME politician that Palin and McCain vowed to "shake up" in Washington; now she supports him? I still don't see how Palin supporters can keep a straight face when they say she is smart and had the qualifications to be VP...How can the right continue to live in the past? Conservative have more potent women in the their party, and they sad thing is they know it. They [GOP] still want to use the hood ornament tactic; using the image of Sarah Palin but not her brains...look at the Bush Administration....Saxby Chambliss is the scum of the earth. His political tactics are boarderline criminal... I hope GA wakes up and goes for change and not fall for some right-wing tool tactics from the GOP by bringing in Sarah Palin.
She might energize the Republican base (what's left of it) but she'll super-energize the Democrats and Independents. I foresee a Martin victory. Go Sarah!
Ha Ha Ha Ha! How hilarious.
You guys are all crying about sick of seeing Palins name all over. I think that's very funny. Almost rewarding in a way.
I had Obama shoved down my throat for months and months.
Your tears are tasty. Yum.
Sara & joe the dummer
for 2012 god ! please make my day.........i had never given any $$ to anyone but after listening to her for 5 minutes i gave a bunch to Obama
please go home to your disfunctional pack of ratz and disapear
At least Sarah was born in America unlike someone we know who was born in Kenya! Hope your man has good luck with his birth certificate and all that.
about a year, a year and a half or so ago, it was all about Britney and Paris. Now it's all about "the governor of Alaska" (already!) Sarah.
So, the Republicans are sending their top gun down to Georgia!
They're desperate to obstruct the good faith efforts of President-Elect Obama to repair the damage done to our country by Bush-Cheney and the rubber-stamp congressmen like Senator Chambliss.
as a democrat i have to say
must people on heve say alot but nothing is there
how do you wake up in the morning
you cant be democrats
because they are not that studip
Sarah will need you in 2012 when " tax them to death" Obama ruins America!
She will help kill the Republican candidate's chances just like she did McCain's. That's pitful, hitting the campaign trail to energize the base. Shouldn't they already be energized?
Have we forgotten Geraldine Ferraro? She ran with Mondale, making her the first woman to run for VP.
palin did do wonders for mccain. you betcha'.
Interesting, all of these liberal Palin-bashers, saying she is "unqualified" as a CEO of a state, when we have a person who has somehow been elected POTUS without haven't actually DONE ANYTHING in his life.
Only in America!
God help us.
She has to be the most Airheaded Individual ever. Please let her keep that air up in Alaska.
I strongly agree with my wife who was offended at the idea that Palin could be the first woman in the white house and we both felt she is a female equivalent of Bush. And the last thing we need in the white house is another isolationistic, narrow-minded person whose success depends not upon knowledge and leadership abilities but solely upon political machinery. HOWEVER, the vicious, mean-spirited comments about Palin on CNN are tiresome and counterproductive. Her supporters – the christian republican base – thrives on playing the role of 'victim' and will only be further fueled by any perception of hatred toward her. Plus, it only gives further fuel to those automatons who cite endlessly the mantra that all media is leftist, except foxnews, etc...
Tommorow we are going to read "Joe the plumbers apprentice heading to Georgia to campaign for Chambliss'. Or "Tito the broken english builder heading to Georgia to campaign for Chambliss".
I see the pattern and i laugh very hard.
"Judging from all the negative comments posted here and those posted to every Sarah Palin story it is clear that Mrs. Palin still has the power to intimidate Mr. Obama’s supporters. Even though Mr. Obama has been elected, his supporters are still afraid of this powerful, accomplished woman.
Sarah Palin continues to be wildly popular with many Americans, of all parties and her strength is not diminished, but rather reinforced by these continued negative, unjustified attacks from the radical left. So keep it up, she grows stronger by the day!"
@Lyle, your hate and disrespect of "Mr. Obama" is quite obvious. You don't quite get it. If Palin does have the "power to intimidate" it's because of her skill to incite racism and hatred. It's not her that is intimidating, she's not smart enough for that. It's her message of divisiveness and hate. As an African-American, I don't want to go back 50 years in the past. Watching her incite some of those ignorant, fearful supporters at those rallies was indeed a reminder of the past. America must move toward the future or it's doomed. American is not going to go backward, so Palin has no real future on the national stage.
The survival of whole GOP is now depending on Sarah the Palin and Joe the Plumber.
What a shame.....??? GOP
This woman should go back to Alaska and do the job that the people of Alaska hired her to do. To think that such a nincompoop could influence people of intelligence is preposterous.
Carlos Jean-Gilles
Saint Louis, MO
To all of you that says she is stupid. Let me see she gave her citizens back $1 billion out of a budget surplus. Obama wants to give a stimulus package of $600 billion to increase the deficit to over $1 TRILLION and the National Debt to over $11 TRILLION. I don't need a Harvard degree to know when your Debt is almost equal to your GDP you don't go farther in Debt. Maybe we need to stop electing these Harvard and Yale Idiots.
That's the difference between McSame and Obama.
One man choses an inexperienced female to "attract" attention while the other man choses a qualified man.
Glad our country is in the trust of a true leader.
Stacey, CT,
Wishful thinking.......
Palin, Palin is one of the biggest joke.
Sarah Palin is the worst thing that happened to American politics, we are the laughing stock in the world because of her. How low can we get.? We don't need a Joe six pack plumber stupid person. We need someone SMART, can speak in proper English and knows what is going on in the world. I don't understand why she is being considered for anything. There are many more women who are more inteligent and don't make fools of themselves and their country. Shame on those who are trying so hard to make her into something she really isn't.
I have nothing against women, but GOP should ask themselves if Governor Palin is their best shot.
The more Palin appears on a national stage, the more the Republican party gets split between the anti-intellectual crackpot wing and the serious, old-style Republicans who don't care what you do in your bedroom but do want to balance the budget. The later is a disappearing breed. And a split party doesn't win elections.
Seriously, she WILL NOT go away. *sigh*
Thanks Sarah! You continue helping those of us left-center folk out quite a bit!
I'll be happy to see you back doing more of the same in 2012.
someone said obama will tax us to death, how in gods name are we going to pay for the mess tha bush has created in 8 years. I don't hear anyone of the rep complaining about that.
Palin needs to just go away, I really can't stand it, doesn't she have a wedding to plan, or has the kid left town.
EPIC FAIL

The Palin Phenomena strikes again!
Dear Carolos . . . Before you go off on CNN, you need to reread what was printed. They said that Sarah Palin would be the first woman to hold the office of VP (shudder), NOT that she was the first to run. Clearly if she had one, she WOULD have been the first woman to hold the office.
Lyle: Obama supporters are not intimidated by Crazy Sarah. We believe she is an idiot, but we also have a great deal of fun laughing at her. Laughing is good for you. I have NEVER, EVER, heard more non sequiturs than when that woman speaks. It's priceless.
Let me see who is Stupid. Palin plans on balancing her budget this year while Obama plans on running a deficit of 1 TRILLION dolls? Don't need a Harvard degree to know that the person that balances their budget is smarter.
@ Stacey, CT
She's not frightening because she's smart, capable, well informed, and savy...she's completely and utterly terrifying for two reasons: (a) she's a waltzing disaster waiting to happen because she's ill-informed, grossly underqualified and, well, downright stupid and (b) the GOP "base" would vote for a can of tuna if the GOP told them it furhter the "conservative" agenda and/or because they were told the other candidate is a socialist/marxist/communist boogeyman. We" leave teh racism part out of it for now, because the overarching issue is that she's plain old stupid.
To: Stacey, Connecticut
HA HA HA HA
I cant stop laughing did you say "Even though Mr. Obama has been elected, his supporters are still afraid of this powerful, accomplished woman"
Accomplished? IN SNL or what are you talking about. The only show that benefited from Palin is SNL even those that made Palin's shirt ran at a great loss.....Afraid? are you on drugs? What is there to be afraid of in Palin except that she's got a gun...otherwise its a laughing stock
Thanks but no thanks...Palin will never be a treat to anyone on the DEM side not now or ever will she be a treat.
Am I too late to chip in? Who invited her to this event? The party?
Will she spew her hateful diatribes about Obama while there?
Why is she even invited to appear on the behalf of a repug. after
the mess she made of the McCain ticket?
Oh boy, if this is the best the GOP has going forward.
Absolutely pathetic. The prom's over. Go home.
I feel sorry for her, but even sorrier for her poor children - with a mother like that....
720 COMMENTS!!!! This is why she will never go away!!!
Oh my gosh – CNN the Communist News Network is weeding out pro Palin comments!
Why is Palin still around? She has ruined it for McCain and now
she will surely get a democrat in the office in Georgia. All she has
to do is open her stupid mouth.
Stacey Connecticut – No one feels intimidated by Sarah Palin. She is just pretty much great for a good laugh. She is pretty entertaining. Don't confuse entertaining with intimidation......
@ Brian
You say Palin is effective? You Betcha.
She ruined the McCain campaign in less than six months. Nobody can top that.
Ironic that it is the left that spews the hatred, that they accuse the right of.
Funny how it's the ones who preach "tolerance" who are actually the most "intolerant".
Just an observation. Have a good day!!!
if chambliss loses, which i'm hoping he will, the gop can add another loss to palin stupidy and theirs for alowing this, check out the comments here, most can not stand this palin person. give us someone with a brain first and someone that is not so stuck on their self. GEORGIA VOTE JIM MARTIN DEC.2,2008.
Who cares! It's a free country, anyone can run for office. I'm an Obama supporter and I don't care if she's in the spot light, if she runs, or whatever else she does. People who support her will continue to do so and those of us who don't like her, fine, don't vote for her.
Are ya'll serious with this Palin thing???? Looks like Politics is moving to the more intelligent politician..........with all do respect........No One said that "W" has set the standard of mediority for that whole Republican party.......You folks need to support SMART People. They are out there.......in your Party..............find them........no matter what sex or color !!!
I consider myself a very moderate person...Sarah does not intimidate me..she appalls me...she has no discernable character...willingly using her children and their misfortunes in her campaign...I find her repulsively fascinating, I cannot believe there are people(your vaunted 'base'), who think she has even a modicum of common sense...let alone any quantifiable intelligence...
Who can we write at CNN to have them stop screening their comments and allowing such a high percent of negative Palin ones while stopping positive ones?
This woman is extending her 16th minute of fame, and the press is letting her have it.
Come 2011, others in the GOP (hopefully the moderate, non Jesusland wing) will toss this fundamentalist moron onto the rubbish pile of history, and nominate a Republican more suited to the 21st century than a religious luddite from 1492.
Judging by the comments made by the GOP faithful on here, it looks like that aint gonna happen.
What is it with this woman, only the brain dead can really believe she is the political future of the republican party. I just want her to GO AWAY!!. Go slaughter Turkeys in Alaska, go anywhere but stay out of the lower 48.
Well, she sure draws a crowd. Look at all these comments.
I couldn't be fiurther away from her ideology, but look at all these comments!
As far as 2012 is concerned, let's try to get through 2009 first.
HAPPY THANSGIVING TO ALL. Let's pray for the President elect, and for our country.
I have to wonder how the Alaskan people feel about their governor doing everything but governing????
Oh my
Whether you like her or not, Sarah Palin is a Republican politician who just completed a campaign as the Vice Presidential candidate. As such, she is a competent representative of her party and is entitled to give her support for the Republican party candidate for Senator in Georgia.
However, I would not find her support for Chambliss any more exciting or positively received than it was for John McCain. Her actual performance record as mayor and governor leaves much to be challenged...leaving Wasilla $29 million in debt after years of surplus, approving the largest state budget in Alaska history indicating lack of fiscal restraint, burdening Alaska with a mult-billion dollar pipeline commitment without a contract for energy company usage or land rights from the Indian tribes.
Let her run it will only make it that much easier for Obama/Biden to win again.
"It is not the critic who counts...." Oh heck with, why doesn't she just go away...
I supported sarah palin, she must run again in 2012 shes not the washington insider and really promises to bring about change...unlike obama whos nothing more than words. i do have my criticisms of palin but theres one thing she is genuine, and thats she knows the struggles we americans go thru GO SARAH 2012
Sarah Palin will be awesome in a role like party chairman (woman), like Howard Dean was with the DNC. She can stir up the base, raise TONS of $$$, and the GOP knows this. The liberal dumbocrats also know this, which is why they are spewing so much hatred in her direction.
The mere fact that Palin is needed for the GOP to win a race in GEORGIA says it all!!! Whats next Mississippi. This would be like the dems needing a run off in Vermont.
I thought this woman had a full time job in Alaska in addition to 4 children still at home who need a mother. She needs to go away and us CNN readers need to stop commenting on the many articles about her so maybe they will stop keeping her in our lives. If the Republicans hire another idiot to run for president after not even getting the last one out of office they are doomed. i think Americans realize we need someone with a brain to run our country. Reagan and GWB prove you really need someone with a full understanding of the world, not just somebody you think it nice in such an important job. Reagan got away before the econony crumbled, Bush wasnt as lucky.
How can we possibly elect someone we barely know for president?
Oh wait...
enough comments. she isn't worth the time, or the inclination.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CLOTHES FOR CHARITY....I KNOW IT'S PETTY AND TRITE BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE DUDS. I SUSPECT THEY'RE IN THE BELLY OF HER CLOSET!
Screw you haters. Palin has more experience than Obama and Biden. You better hope your boy Obama delivers. He has the talk but not the walk. He needs all of Clinton's left overs because he dosn't have the walk.I see our next four yrs. a worst disaster.
I am upset by all these unkind remarks about Sarah. She was pushed into the national stage and poor lady, she did not have a clue about her role. She did her best. But for her, McCain would not have been able to draw the conservative crowds to his rally. She was educated under our school system where world history or world geography was not at all taught. But within a short period, she could recognize all those political divisions in the world. She orchestrated well within the restrictions placed on her and without much training. I commend her courage but I would certainly not want her to be my VP and not my President.now with her Joe the Plumber mantra. 2012 is far away and who knows, she may turn out to be better educated, knowledgeable and capable by then!.
Wait. She could be ready in 4 years, let's give her the benefit of the doubt. That is enough time to attend 5 more colleges, read thousands of newspapers and buy some binoculars to check out Russia.
Sarah's using up some else's 15 minutes....
Why all the hate? Dems...are you really that scared of her?
To Dallas, Tx...you wrote: "And the last thing we need in the white house is another isolationistic, narrow-minded person whose success depends not upon knowledge and leadership abilities but solely upon political machinery. "
Hmmm...sounds a lot like Obama!
Folks we're taliking about Georgia. There just might be a strong Palin base there for her to 'energize'. The incumbent may be the winner.
More's the pity!! Let's hope not!!!
It's truly remarkable that the GOP are corralling every loser they had in the presidential race, that they're this desperate to maintain any senate seat they can and that this is in Georgia of all places. How the mighty have fallen–it's really gotta hurt!
As an American I am totally appalled by the comments I am reading on this blog. We have talked, rallied, and demonstrated for decades about racial discriminiation, over coming gender bias, and how we as Americans dispise it. However, there is no more proof of its mere existance than to read these comments posted here. As as an educated, white, 30-something corporate American woman I support Sarah Palin 100%. In all of my adult years I have not seen such a personal [mind you] attack against a candidate. Would this have happened to a male candidate – I think not. Look at the blunders by Biden [what is the role of the VP again?] but that got very little media attention. She might be a little "green" as compared to other career politicians but isn't that what we need in our government right now? Greed, corruption, and elitism among our leadership is what has gotten the US in this mess we live in today. We need to revisit the qualities that once made us a great nation – honesty, courage, and last but not least integrity.
Boy does this chick love attention. And god is she annoying. And scary.
Wow...reading through the posts on here is the reason why I can't stand Democrats....pathetic trash.
Sarah Paillin is a force to reckon with. She is a quick study. Over time she will get even better and pose a definite challenge to her political opponents. Funny, even CNN's Cambell Brown features her in her segment almost everyday. She just cannot get over her obsession of her.
"Sarah Palin continues to be wildly popular with many Americans, of all parties and her strength is not diminished, but rather reinforced by these continued negative, unjustified attacks from the radical left. So keep it up, she grows stronger by the day!"
Stop pounding on Palin! She is the life blood of the Republican party and a breath of fresh air!! John McCain lost the election because he opened his dumb mouth in support of the $700 billion bail out. If he would have stayed behind the scene and not took a stand (like Obama) he would of had a better chance of winning. Sarah is the ONLY reason John did as well as he did.
You Dems are the ones who don't get it. Where's all the change Obama promised? Oh, that's right. It's in his new cabinet.
God bless Sarah!!!
Oh Gee, Oh my...Failin Palin is back again.
When in Georgia, maybe she will do an interview infront of a good ol lyching and cross burning!!!
Incase anyone is not familiar with "silence of the turkeys" Palin did an interview infront of a turkey farm while turkeys were being slaugtered in the back ground,
.
Meet the Turkeys: Tom and Baked Alaska
Ignorant Palin going to a state that is still dealing with the Civil War.
Something awful could happen!!!
It's absolutely amazing that this dingbat doesn't realize how stupid she really is and that she isn't helping anyone out by campaigning for them. That being said, let her go ahead and campaign for Chambliss. Hope he loses big time!!
I agree with Stacey in Connecticut...I am a white woman and a former republican. We cannot afford to go any further backwards than we alreadty have. It is time for our nation to heal from our economic heart attack.
How does that song go? "The devil went down to Georgia...."
This abrasive woman should stay home and raise her large and needy family. How do the Evangelicals feel about her choices???? Me! Me! Me!
No one hates Palin.....I think she needs to educate herself some more and try again in 2012. It's not her fault that McCain sought her out. Apparently he did not do his homework I don't hink she's a bad person, I just think she was not ready for for such a heavy responsiblity. In comparison to Hillary, she kust wasn't ready. I wish her the best in her future endeavors. Iwould like to add that no one is intimidated by her. I loved her spunk, but is that alone what we need in the White House?? Come on Palin supporters, put your emotions aside and think about it...she's not quite ready, but I think this expereince will help her grow....
Alaska. Georgia. Full of redneck huntin' religious right-winged nuts. It fits.

I just have to say for the Record...I am an Obama supporter but Palin did not intimidate me at all. I just think it is absurd that this woman is out running her mouth leaving all those kids at home and not on her job in Alaska. No way does she bother us. So don't flatter her by thinking so. It's the woman does not belong out campaigning and doesn't have the knowledge to do so. She needs more education okay? Read the blogs and you'll understand. She was no contest as a VP. I just wish her First Dude would just keep her at home on the range! She does not do anything for the GOP except trash it and the only following she has are the Dull Normals.
Say it ain't so! You've got to be kidding! Citizensof Atlanta: make a citizens' arrest at the airport, on the grounds of accessory to turkey murder in Alaska!
Tadashi Davis, the truth hurts doesn't it!? Yes it must be so tough when one knows that they have lost. And given the fact that the few and I mean few mindless minions of Palin like you, keep championing Caribou Barbie, we will continue to win so Please righties, keep Palin on the stage, nominate her please! She's the gift that keeps on giving and those that defend her are poster children for the typical right winger: sex starved, cowardly, uneducated, weak, lying and most of all dumb as a bag of hammers!
What amazes me is that the Democrats won and they are still mad! I don't understand why a Democrat is always mad. They're mad if they win, mad if they don't win. They have an excuse for everything. It's always someone else's fault.
Well, you can't borrow or spend your way out of debt. And the United States is in trouble. Big trouble. And it's going to take conservatism, a strong person with the ability to say "NO". We can't do that now, we don't need that now! Tighten your belts and get ready for a ride, cause it's going to get worse before it gets better! Start working, save your money, help your neighbor, and be prepared to protect your country. Oh, it's going to be a hard next 4 , 8 or 12 years.
Is she taking some freshly-killed turkey for the Georgia Senator?
I heard they can fry them up quicker than jack rabbit in an open field!
Maybe some moonshine to wash it down.
I love her; the more she talks the more Repubics lose.
Go Annie get your Gun!
Sarah and her Mickey Mouse club campaign crew (Piper, Baby Trig, Willow, Bristol the Teen Preggo Dropout, Joe The Plumber, Todd the secessionist) will be headed down there to Georgia to do exactly for Saxby what she did for McLame...end his career, his reputation, and his honor.
I can't wait for her to get down there and spew the same hateful rhetoric that will play over and over on all the networks. Jim Martin, your prayers have been answered, I will now contribute to your campaign...say hello to a filibuster proof Senate! Yeehaw
Evidentially being Governor of Alaska is a part-time position.
I thought she promised to stay Moose hunting until 2012?
According to a new Gallup Poll, Republicans and Republican-leaning Independents most would like to see Sarah Palin run for president in 2012. That’s right…Sarah “I read all the newspapers,” Palin. Former mayor of Wasilla, first-term governor of Alaska and hockey mom. Her interviews with Katie Couric are the stuff of legend. After she and McCain got their clocks cleaned, Governor Palin couldn’t get enough of the TV cameras. They were in her kitchen, her office, virtually every corner of her life. She is now reportedly being wooed to write a book-that would be interesting-or maybe do a TV show.
I really would love to see Palin as President. A rock-solid strong and powerful force of a woman who does not have the man-hating, unmatternal and unfeminine attitudes that traditional feminists do. A woman who sticks her 3-inch heel right through those who hide from the untrendy GOD AND COUNTRY.
Palin needs to go back to her Turkey slaughter and Rudy with her.
Great! Is she bringing Joe the Plumber with her?? This is one sure, way, though to insure a Democratic victory!
Holly molly she is at it again. This guy is going to loose big time.
She is becoming an energizer bunny for any sort of media attention and I thought the election was going to be her 'off' button..
jen from cali,
bitter little republican, aren't ya?
lol..... it's ok. You can be forgiven your small minded hate filled outburst..... after all,
YOU'RE A LOSER!
Let me repeat that,,,,
YOU'RE A SORE LOSER!!!!!
LOL.... and I'm LAUGHING AT YOU.
GO AWAY
The sad reality here is that the GOP has truly been suspended in animated histrionics. They still truly believe that the American base is a population of uneducated, religious-leaning, ultra-conservative, rightist populace that brew fear in their kettles and spew bigotry from their mouths. I am sorry to tell anyone and everyone reading this that thanks to the migratory trends and the dawn of the "newer world", the US of A is now eing populated by a minority (yes, we are still a minority and we never seek to be THE majority, although we just want to be Americans, all of us!) of highly educated and highly skilled immigrants (and not just the lowly farm and factory migrant workers who turn the wheels of our economic movements) who only dream to dream.....that is what America is now.....and that is why President-Elect Obama won.....because of these intelligent, caring, broad-minded, unbiased Americans!
We must NOT forget : FEAR IS THE EMOTION THAT MAKES US BLIND!
Palin makes Obama seem like a toy.
C W – you are not the feminist you claim to be. The feminist movement was about supporting all women (yes, even those women we may not like) in the choices they made – be it career, family, educational or other choices. The movement was not about judging women based on those choices. Shame on you. Lots of women go back to work days after giving birth – many do so out of necessity, others do it because let's face it, women give birth every day and most ARE able to return to their normal routine within a few days. Palin returned to work with the baby at her side. You are faulting her for having a strong work ethic.
Mike November 25th, 2008 2:47 pm ET
Prediction — Salin will fire up some voters to turn out in support of Saxby. The negative turning point for Martin was the "help" of Al Gore, the biggest joke ever!!!!! Republicans will win this race.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
You don't get it, just the fact that there IS a run off is a sign of the times.
The Republican "brand" is out of favor and well it should be.
Keep putting simpletons like Ms Palin out there as national candidates..... PLEASE!
and if you think running a state with the population of Memphis is qualification to be POTUS, you're not really living in the real world.
Sarah Palin is smarter than you all think....she's pathetic but SMART. She knows that having her face in the camera whether people love her or are making fun of her means more coverage and money in her pockets. She loves the attention and it's not about politics anymore.
Mark my words, once she has "totally" humiliated the GOP, and they turn their backs on her, she has an amazing career in entertainment at her and her families expense no less. She has proven what's important in her life. She doesn't care if you humiliate her daughter, unborn grandchild, down syndrome son, or her husband.
This disgrace of a woman will do anything to get more and more famous and the media is playing her like a flute. The more coverage she gets the more papers they sell. It's sad...and you can all blame Jonh McClain and the Republican Party for choosing her the energize their base and fool the public into voting for a woman. They created a Media Monster, now they can't control her and unfortunatly we ALL have to endure her until her flame burns out!!!
Why dont they invite Cindy McCain down as well? Two well dressed hot women who have nothing to say should seal the deal for someone
There sure are a lot of cynical people in the Dem Party out there.A lot of haters. Well, down here in Ga., we like Sarah Palin. You are all just scared you're man Martin is going to lose. People in Ga. also like Saxby Chambliss. We want to keep our guns & our freedom. Dems are such wusses!!
Excellent! That way another Republican gets to go home. Keep'em coming Sarah. You're the best thing that happened to the Democratic Party.
The little self-centered idiot should just stay home-FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama is doing more to fix the American economy as President Elect than GW did as President. And you think that Palin is the answer ??
Sarah Palin is a strong leader who will indeed have a future in the Republican Party and on the national stage in the years to come. She threatened the idea of the Liberal Women's Movement by challenging people to remind themselves that not all women are liberals, and that her leadership is just as legit as a Hillary Clinton's is.
As Palin goes on to (probably) win re-election as the governor of her state, she will become a stronger candidate for President in 2012 or 2016. But even if she decides not to run for President, she has many options open to her as one of the fresh new leaders of the Republican Party.
I don't think she incited hatred in her campaign rallies. Her speeches reflected the questions about Obama's thin record and his questionable ties to some pretty obscene people. That's not inciting hatred. President-elect Obama may or may not be prepared for the huge challeges this nation faces, but it is undeniable that the issues Palin raised about him during the campaign were well within reason.
I have decided to give the new President a chance to show his ability and to be successful. While I voted for McCain/Palin, I believe that Barack Obama now becomes my President regardless. My hope is that he will find ways to govern the people without falling into the trap of partisanship and ideological radicalism.
GO AWAY
All I have to say about Palin is that she believes in pseudo-conservative dogma that has been proven false, and that she appears not to understand the dogma she parrots, much less its fallacies.
Is that hateful? Is it even controversial enough to escape moderator limbo?
I can't believe that Saxby wants Typhoid Mary to campaign for him. Is it me or has the Republican party gone collectively insane? This woman is not a good fit for any place but Alaska. But by all means, please talk her up. It will make it easier for the Democrats to stay on top. Ah, Sarah Palin, the gift that keeps on giving.
The Real Issue is that Senator Chambliss has to have all the Republican Leadership which now includes Palin to attempt to keep him in office. Why can't he run on his record. Because he doesn't have one that is worthwhile to speak because he has supported the Bush Administration policies that has caused the deepest economic chaos since the depression.
Spare US please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey Willie brown you say palin will come to the rescue after obama screw the country by 2012 I don't know where you been but we have already been screw and you voted for bush twice I bet that tell me how smart you are I bet you hit your sister /wife
Palin is only popular with the 20% of America that calls itself the "Christian base of the Republican party". This base is made up of bigots, racist, and people who believe that if you are not of "my" faith then you should be expelled from America. These are the same people who try to impose their christian beliefs on others. Those religious terrorist like J.Dobson, P. Robertson and the late J. Fallwell are the ones who need to be locked up for the betterment of America.
As long as the GOP allows these folks into the party it will remain an afterthought.
Hey Sarah...your 15 minutes are up. Shut up and go home.
As a GA native and current Atlanta resident, I may be tempted to move if we vote for Saxby AFTER he enlists the help of this woman...Come on, Jim Martin!
Sarah has probably missed shreaking out half truths and labeling people as socialists.
Isn't Palin's 15 minutes of fame overwith yet?... Quick!.. get a comedian in the same room!.. I miss SNL....
Palin, you're a moron. Go back to Alaska. Why don't you focus some of your time on your family instead of the spotlight, and give them much needed attention. Hey, maybe you can spend a day together moose hunting!
Why oh why can't she just fade back into Alaska.
My gracious, there are some angry orphaned people on here! I'm figuring you all must be orphans, because if you had mothers, I am sure they would have taught you something about being graceful winners.
For those of you who remind us all that Palin crashed McCain's effort, even if someone concedes that is the case, the effort didn't crash in Georgia. Palin may very well help in that state.
And for those of you who remind us that Ferraro was the first female VP candidate, technically, that is true, however, Palin was the first one to be selected by a Presidential nominee who thought he had a chance of winning. Mondale knew he had no chance against Regagn-Bush. Mondale could have selected me, or Mother Teresa, or Amy Winehouse (had she been alive) and had the same results: lucky to capture his own home state in the electoral college.
Oh no......she will never go away. Wonder what wonderful speeches she will give this time to incite and inflame people? Who does she want to have hanging out & pallin around with terrorists this time – will Joe the Plumber show up again - etc.
Go Palin – the Democrats' secret weapon. We couldn't invent someone this divisive. Make another turkey video while you're at it.
Will there still be a GOP in 2012?
Sounds like most of these comments are jumping on the band wagon for bullying. When someone is down kick them some more.
Talk about a bunch of sick people get a life for crying out loud
Alaska For Sale
$700 billion OBO
GOP was hoping our collective IQ was here ______
Turns out it was a little closer to here ----–
Sarah Palin here ______ US here ---–
"Sarah the Mouth"... Just like Diarrhea, running rampant..
Thanks Sarah for coming to Georgia. I live in Georgia and I know that we do not want Martin. Democrats fear you just as they did when you made that great speech at the convention. They can't say enough bad things about you. If you didn't matter, they would not bother. What concerns me is why women condem you. You are a smart person. You combine work with your family. You believe in life, but do not condemn anyone on their beliefs. I have to come to the conclusion that many that condemn you have made judgements that they regret and want to take it out on you. I wish for you the best.
What do dinosaurs and republicans have in common?
Not much, but at least we know how republicans became extinct.
Sarah Palin is a fresh face in a stale world. Leave her alone!
Kiss it goodbye Chambles, Palin will do the same thing for you she did for McSame. END YOUR CAREER!
Poor pathetic CNN. Afraid to allow opinions that give the people names that really fit, such as Dumbya or Palyin'. I'm amazed that they let McSame go in one entry.
I submitted two entries earlier today without hateful speech, but merely expressing my opinion on this piece, but they're to pansy as_ed to print them for all to see.
I am from Georgia and really don't expect to see her here. She'll probably show up in the Republic of Georgia instead. Can't tell the difference between a continent and a country? How about a country and a state? Surely she read about that somewhere.
Come 'on CNN. You're letting people belittle those (Georgia hicks". Grow some da_n b_lls and print my submission for a change. Palyin' could probably loan you hers.
Sarah Palin is a female fresh face in a broken-down stale country. Leave her alone!
Sheeeeeee's Back!!!!!!
I agreed wholeheartedly with the general concensus here regarding Palin and her abilities-or rather lack thereof. Then, last week, a friend sent me a link to a 30 minute interview she did in July with Investor's Business Dailey. I couldn't believe (except for that accent) I was listening to the same woman we saw running for VP. She actually articulated precise, considered responses to some difficult questions like a Rhodes scholar. My friend had been shocked by this, as was I. Now I'm wondering if THIS is the real Palin, and if so, what did the geniuses at the McCain campaign do with her?
I can't beleive that the Repubs would even consider someone as ignorant and egotistical as sarah Palin for thew 2012 ticket! Good grief! The woman is a complete idiot!
I am so grateful that the GOP had Palin
Sarah Palan represents women in a conservative, down-home mode and I find it very refreshing. Quit picking on her!
WHAT!!!??? They WANT Saxby to lose!!!???
All she is, is a great campaigner. Just have her campaign, follow a script and talk to people. No interviews, no hard questions or anything like that! just campaign! oh, and make sure she bring along"joe the make believe plumber", that may work in Georgia.
She is one heck of a joke!
We love palin in Alaska.. did I forget to mention that Alaska does not have the same housing crisis, we don't pay income tax to support government spending and we are not inline with other states like California to ask for federal free money to support a bankrupt state government. Don't blame Bush because you ran down to the bank and bought a house you could not afford, refinanced on that good deal to buy that fancy new car, 72 inch flat screen. That is the problem with freedom when we make our own choice and it is wrong we like to blame someone else and run to government give-aways.. And we got our extra 1200 dollar check from our Alaska government because they had extra money and every day citizens could use help with the cost of fuel. Yes send her back please.. Alaska has one of the healthiest economies in the entire USA..
I scanned all of the above comments. Isn't it amazing how narrow-minded and smug the liberals have become towards Palin?
Hey people-You've got the office and almost all of the Congress. Lighten up! What are you afraid of now? Whether Chambliss wins or loses, what's the difference? All of you should go out and get some good, tasty Kool-Aid and enjoy yourselves!
More "over exposure!!" – from the Paris Hilton of the GOP!!
This is exactly what McCain could not see. This woman was making plans for her self.
Maybe Palin will be mistaken for a turkey Thursday...no pardon
I'm amazed by the endorsements by both sides. I'll bet you none of these endorsers even know the candidates they're endorsing. They're both just endorsing their party, period.
Palin didn't know anyone on the national scene, and here she is endorsing a guy she probably knows nothing about other than the fact that he's a republican.
All of you woman are just jealous of her because she's very pretty, & your husbands probably liked looking at her. Down here in Ga., we're a lot like Alaska. People actually help each other, & we love our guns & freedoms.So we welcome Sarah Palin to Georgia!!
Judging from all the comments on here that are against Sarah, it is quite clear who is stupid. If you really don't care or like her why do you read and comment about her? That is stupidity in its grandest state.
Palin is most likely doing this for her own self promotion than as a favor for Chambilss. There are alot of evangelicals in Georgia, and if she manages to rally large crowds several weeks after the election it would send a pretty strong message to the GOP that she isn't going away.
If I was Chambliss, I'd extend a hearty "Thanks but no thanks." Palin campaigning for him is only slightly better than "W". What's very sad is that Palin is so stupid, she doesn't even realize how stupid she acts. I guess the village idiot always thinks he (or she) has the best job in town....
WOW!!! Look at the enormous response on this page to this gal. I'm impressed. She's got power!! Go Sarah!!!
Why stop with Sarah-Bring in to Georgia, also Joe the Plumber;
how about (stepford wife) Cindy McCain–and say , Dan Quayle too (to make Sarah appear more fluent)..AND, have the blithering idiot carry a headless turkey instead of her baby....
So far her apparent popularity did not lead to votes alloweing McCain to win Nationally...–maybe, like me, people just want to look at her and are fascinated at her lack of comprehension at what is going on around her-
It is also facinating how Gingrich and Huckabee are afraid take her on and say it for what it is-two intelligent Republicans who generate some respect in their own way, acting like scared kittens.
AMAZING!
All you stupid male pigs out there, can go hang yourselves by the --. I never knew there were so many sexist men in this country until this past election. I have already been done wrong by 3 husbands, and numerous other men in my past, and this election has only further confirmed my dislike and distrust for MOST men. Get a grip guys!!! A woman WILL WIN the Presidential seat one day soon!!! And it will happen whether or not YOU approve!! It will not matter if you think a female is unworthy or NOT AS worthy, as the male counterparts! And guess what? It just might be Palin!!! Personally, I cannot think of a woman who is MORE deserving than her!
This is unreal. Didn't she do enough for John? And now No. VA Palin fan is confident that "Once the ridiculous media bias about you subsides, the entire public will see clearly the strong and convicted American leader that you are." It's that "convicted" part that should get the RNC's attention. Haven't they had enough of those?
Yes, she is back....I can watch SNL again.
Wow this idiot is a gift that keeps on giving. Thanks Dems have just won another seat in the senate. lolol
I am not a republican or a soild democrat but I have only one to say,you people who are so hateful in your heart for Sara Palin why dont you get a life and bring up something usfull to inject in these comments. I just caint believe what I am reading here.
Cynic November 25th, 2008 3:28 pm ET
Interesting, all of these liberal Palin-bashers, saying she is "unqualified" as a CEO of a state, when we have a person who has somehow been elected POTUS without haven't actually DONE ANYTHING in his life.
Only in America!
God help us.
??? Done nothing??? Graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the first Black President of The Harvard Law Review. Taught Constitutional Law and the University of Chicago. Was a three term state Senator from Illinois. A United States Senator. Married his college sweetheart and together they have two wonderful girls. And, oh yeah, got elected as the first African American President in our nations history. I would stipulate that is WAY MORE than hasn't "done anything in his life".....
Guys, we already have 58 seats. The Repubs have 42. Even if we lose Georgia (since it's a south state, lots of uneducated rednecks) and lose Minnesota (I'm not sure how this'll end), we still have more seats. The repubs have hardly any chance to screw our country anymore than they've been doing for the last 8 years.
