CNN

isnt palin the best medinice for the dem. she sure can unite us dem.
i know idont hate palin when ilook at her i see the lights on but theres nobody at home. kind of sad. sure glad alaska is stuck with her .

Sarah Palin makes me wonder if she's like the 40 odd % of americans who voted for her. I'd hate to think that. How she was even considered as vice-president material of a (the) major nation on Earth is beyond belief.

Some women are saying she is "just one of them" but then most people are not presidential material (RIGHT?). Sarah Palin might be a good choice for newspaper cover pages (she has a nice smile, sometimes, good legs...) but she would have to reinvent everything else if her role included saying anything more substantial than "gotchya". And by then the good legs would be, most probably, long gone.

Condie Rice also has great legs but most importantly a great BRAIN! Do you Republicans notice any difference? For heaven's sake, stop demeaning americans and find someone better. You can do it (I guess :S)...

Palin says: "In fact, remember... I tried to convince the majority of voters that governors knew best." If anybody told anything about governors don't know anything?! Palin, please!!!! THAT'S WHY Obama pledges to help governors and work with them closely.
If anybody can send all these messages to her as reminder that she also tried to convince voters that she has so many things to do in Uulhaska...She knows as soon she comes back to Alaska, she will have to work hard, and even may be drill baby, driil. No, Sarah? This project, probably, is not a piece of cake, with current oil prices, hah?

For those of you who make fun of Sarah's accent - when was the last time you went to a fast food restaurant in Southern California or Texas??? OR one in Detroit or New Jersey?? Minnesota??? How about the Bronx or Brooklyn....

You show your unmitigated ignorance in knocking her accent. Her accent reflects a mixture of accents from those who settled in Alaska from the North Central States and the Native Eskimos and Athabascan Indians of Central Alaska. You make fun not only of her, but all other Alaskans, as well as your own American heritage.

But, based on the level of intelligence shown in your comments, I'm sure YOUR ignorance is bliss!!!!

Here's a clue America – George W. Bush has been President for 8 years and Sarah Palin is Governor of the greatest state in the union.

You Obama leftists can belly-ache all you want, but they got elected by VERY INTELLIGENT voters. They will not go away, because they really are the smart ones – I don't see you bloggers holding any office or even serving your country in any way, but just yammering to hear yourselves whine and to try to tear it down. I'll bet Obama will open up travel to Iran & Iraq soon, so be sure to buy your one-way tickets right away!!

Four years will tell the tale. All of you whiners will be begging for Sarah and the rest of her team to save your sorry arses from the wreck and ruin of Obama's "hand-picked" team of "I owe them BIG time for getting me in office – who cares what they can do... but since they all worked for Clinton, and I know absolutely nothing about running anything, maybe they'll carry my butt through....."

And the liberal morons here (sorry, I know that's redundant) just can't help but attack Palin.

Get a life.

Oh, and CNN, how come you haven't started reporting on Obama's background yet? Incompetent, or just malfeasant?

The more you talk about her the more she appears in our everyday life. If you don't like her or what the media has to say about her don't write. Just say nothing and maybe she will go away. But, the more everyone talks about her ,the more she appears to make an entrance into our everyday media. Keep talking everyone and be miserable. This is all I have to say

How is it possible that the media keeps covering this person? However, I want to thank them because if she is the frontrunner for the GOP they are going to be waiting to be in the white house for a very long time...

With inane politicians like Palin, who needs enemies?

Michael, DannyLynn, Britny where are you? We need you now more than ever.

The lady needs to take a bow and disappear for a long time. Can someone close to her tell her PLEASE?

Sarah Palin can not go away because of you, people who hate her. Who asked you to read her saying? ... Obama was declared genius by media, analysts and movie stars, before doing anything. The press itself recognized it was biased with him. Bush, and now Palin, were both declared idiots from the begining. Were people in Texas and Alaska idiots when they elected them governors? If the "sublect" were Biden or Hilary there would be much less commentaries. Why? Because they were genial individuals when they both declared Obama not ready and dangerous... and now, they are brilliant choices to serve the president. Why? Campain is over! It's time to get serious about the country! Because before they were just joking...

Gloria Borger is on CNN right now saying that Sarah Palin is a star!!!What is with CNN's pundits dumming it down on Palin's behalf. If Palin is in fact the star of the Republican party, they will never get back to the White House. I cannot wait for her language skills to go up against the articulate eloquence of Obama. It will be hilarious. She can't even string a coherent sentence together, let alone come up with an original thought. She needs to go back to Alaska and hibernate!

Sarah Palin's attendance of six years of five colleges inbetween three states makes her dumb. She still talks like she is in a debate. Please, someone shut her up already!!!

UGHHHHHH! Enough of this eskimo ALREADY.....

Yes Sarah " you're a redneck if..." Palin, Senator Biden won and you lost. What clarity!

When will the nightmare end? When oh Lord, when????!!!!!

The 'unflattering jabs' were 'mutual'?!?!? What is she talking about?!?!? She lied continuously and unashamedly for the entire 9 weeks. The Republican campaign was disgusting in how low it was.

Put a fork in Palin. We're all sick of her and don't need that kind of two-faced ignorance in our government.

You Obama supporters complained when she didn't come out and speak during the election and now you complain because she does. You are all hypocrites and stupid for sure if you keep reading about someone that you hate so much. It's pretty funny how she is still out there and it angers you soooo much. I

ENOUGH ALREADY !!!! CNN,please...STOP COVERING THIS IDIOT,PLEASE.PLEASE PLEASE.

She needs to go back to school to learn how to make a complete sentence. Why is she news and must we keep hearing about this woman?

Sarah.......Alaska Politicians are talking about your disappearing acts of late. Go home. You have work to do there. Everywhere you go it seems as if the circus is in town. Good luck on you next run for GOV. of Alaska.

Wow, I can't believe the hate for this woman on this blog. It tells me that they all fear her. I guess she will be the next President in 2012.

What a moron

Ah you really gotta LOVE it. You those on the far right moaning and crying that Democrats and the left are always picking on Sarah Palin. They are AFRAID of Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin in 2012!! Well if I recall the end of the campaign correctly is was her OWN people that were calling her out, talking about her, and saying all types of trashy things about her. The left and the Dems didn't need to! So you Palin supporters that complain about the "hate" on the left need look no further than your own backyard. It's true what they say that the "GOP eats it own young!"

Sarah Palin is living proof that America has had failing school system for over forty years now.

Education really is a national security issue.

Imm,

So in other words, your teaching your kids YOUR point of view. Not allowing them to decide on thier own what THEY think would make a good president?

And personally, I think Sarah english is just fine. It sure beats these music artist that say,, you know,,, you know what I mean,, you know,
know what I mean,,, you know,,,,,

Even my 10 year old neice has better english skills than Sarah.

TheNewGenerationGOP....lol lol lol thanks for the laugh.

The problem with your little analogy is that in 2006 Obama was a Harvard grad, former President of the Harvard law review and teaching constitutional law at Harvard. Im not sure if you graduated from high school but I think his back ground gave him a real good chance of becoming the next President.

If, in 2006, Obama was a clown, fumbled over his words and was incoherent most of the time, he would not have been called back to take out the garbage. Only the land of the GOP is such a person asked to run the country.

If I were Obama I wouldn't come within a mile of that hateful, slandering, egotist! He will, however, because he is intellegent and a gentleman.
Dah! Did she just figure out "It's the economy, Stupid"? She didn't want to talk about that during the campahn because she knew Nada about it. How she ever made Govenor I'll never know and I certainly don't believe she did many wonderful things for Alaska!
No, I wouldn't give her the time of day. I'd like to see her bash Hillary like she did Obama. Then's when she would really get egg on her face!
She said on the campaign trail she tried to tell people Govenors knew best about the economy. I DON'T THINK SO! She did more bashing than telling!

"...saying that she and other governors present had “great concerns” about increased spending under an Obama administration." DUH!???Whats' happened in the current administration has risen above ALL previous admins! The cost of the wars alone is staggering!

dont worry guys. just wait until she run in 2012 against her fellow republicans only then will we hear what they really,really think of her

I wish Santa Claus can keep her in Alaska and teach her to sing NOT talk. If this is the best the GOP have then please bring it on Obama will go s sixth term......

Chuck in LA December 2nd, 2008 4:33 pm ET:

I would really really really like a Republican to explain to me why they think that the least educated, least diverse, and least tolerant people in this country are the ones who know what's best not just for the US, but for the entire world.

Chuck, your words are truest of true. I don't understand it either. It seems like the repubs find higher education to be a bad thing. I shuddered to hear the former secretary opf education, Bill Bennett, literally sneer that only some people listen to intellectuals. I think they (repubs) want people to be stupid so they can get away with more.

She reminds me of the female version of our last President. Subject-predicate Sarah dear.

I always thought pitbulls were the most untrainable breed. This is all John Mccain's fault. Heck she doesn't need to see Russia, she needs to keep an eye on them girls of hers. By the way Gov. when is the wedding? And is your son in-law going to finish school? I say do some homework and be a real righteous republican.

SERIOUSLY!!!!!

Please, please, please, just go back to Alaska and watch Russia for us. That's all we want you to do.

I used to be afraid this woman would be a heartbeat away and sitting across from Putin saying "you betcha"... (wink-wink)...

wait.... maybe THAT s how we could get the best of Putin....

dang.... america... we missed THAT opportunity.

for the life of me I am never sure what that woman is talking about........is it just me?

just more double-speak and ignorance from Palin. first she hires a lobbyist to secure earmarks for her town, then after getting nailed on the Bridge to Nowhere, was against too much spending by the gov't.

now, she wants less spending by the gov't when an overwhelming number of economists agree that the only way to get out of this recession to spend our way out.

The only ones that are showing up to see her are the far rightwing conservatives.......the religous right......that isn't going to be enough to vote her in as President......she is not the answer to the Republican ticket and the sooner the Republicans realize this the better off they will be......she will make it possible for Obama again in 2012..........

I've never seen a politician who is just as difficult to understand when you hear their comments as when you read them. WHY is she such a celebrity amongst some Republican circles?? I just don't see it or get it. Is it because she's considered attractive? Is it that annoying voice? Is it because she doesn't make any sense when discussing national policy? My goodness. Someone PLEASE make me understand her appeal.

Only in America can a totally unqualified person (she can't even speak in coherent sentences) be considered a possible leader of our country. It's boggles the mind and sends the absolute wrong message to our children and the rest of the world. Come on America, we have to be better than that! We're not THAT stupid, are we?

Dear GOP:

Find an intelligent, honorable, informed and qualified individual to step forward in the GOP. All your continued support of Palin does is suggest to the rest of us that you can't find such a person in your ranks.

Thank You,

The Amurikan Peeples Also

I like to use Sarah's poor English as a teaching tool for my kids.

It also teaches them about their civic responsibility, as well as, the reasons that Sarah is not presidential material.

It's getting tiring though. I do wish she would go away now as they've already learned about media ratings.

"“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these."

– Sarah Palin

Presidential? Hardly! Re-read this sentence s-l-o-w-l-y. Huh? Wha?

Sorry, Repubs. You're not hearing hatred. You're hearing the truth. Sarah Palin is incapable of stringing more than a sentence together in a row and make sense doing it. I can get that at the local pub. I want more for my president.

To "the new GOP," to be frank, you sound stupid in the way you talk about Sarah Palin. Getting madder makes you stronger? Why don't you instead tell us why you think Palin is qualified to lead this nation? Especially in times like this? If you really think that she is qualified, I have to wonder about your education and background and/or if you are just blinded by your conservative social views? Her having those views like you are simply NOT enough to make her capable of handling the serious problems are country is solving. It takes BRAINs and also good communication skills. She might be "bright" I have no idea, but she cannot express herself clearly.

She is Bush Jr – she can't even string together a coherent thought, much less a coherent sentence:

"When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these."

sarah palin is nothing but a distraction, please can she just go away,just asked the other republican governors who felt she was sucking the air out of the room, at the gov convention,

"Up heeere in ALAAAAAAAA-SKUH"

I dont understand how people could truly wish this woman would run for office.. Do they truly think she is respected worldwide..Do they think she is respected nationally or just with her base..What does she offer someone like me who is an independent .. she never offers solutions only talk about why she feels the need to watch the current pres-elect .. so please someone educate maybe you know something i dont what is she offering to do about our current situations..

The nasty comments were NOT mutual! And if she thinks they are forgiven by Obama or other Democrats she is wrong. She cannot appeal to all of America and therefore she has zero chance of being on the national stage in an important job. She also has a way of saying NOTHING. She needs to educate herself about many things including basic English grammar, world geography and issues before even considering a run for anything out of Alaska. Winks and getting racist crowds angry aren't going to do it.

To Kim J. I think Palin started the hate stuff in her campain. You/ We all need to get over it and work together and make this country great again. Hate and bad feelings will get us nowhere. I mean Obama welcomed her and the rest of Gov. he got over it. It is time to move on to bigger and better things and not dwell in the past. I hope we are all
capabale of that.

Poor Sarah, you don't need to worry, Barack Obama is very wise and intelligent, he knows how to run this country successfully. The USA will be much better under Obama administration.

paraphrasing...
America loves a winner, and will not tolerate a loser....much less a sore loser with no good ideas of their own! Why is she still getting such press. Let her go back into obscurity and actually do some real work at governing her state!

Joe The Plumber had more intelligence than Princess Palin. At least he knew he wasn't that great but he'd just see what he could milk out of it.
She's convinced, she should be KING!

I never thought I would see myself type this but Gov. Sarah Palin makes GWB look really smart. I SAID "LOOK".

Does she really think that updo is cute? Get a hair style that is not from a pagent. She even waves like she is walking down the pagent runway.................a real live joke.........................When's the daughters wedding?

It's like she swallowed a Speak & Spell and then fell down the stairs. Total jibba jabba.

This woman cannot speak in coherent sentences!

Palin 2012!!!!!!!!!!! That way President Obama won't have to waste his time campaigning for re-election–it's a guaranteed second term!

@ TheNewGenerationGOP

You Palin supporters can get all the Hulk-raging mad you want in response to us making fun of how stupid and unqualified she is, but you still only get one vote in 2012. Waste is angrily if you want to...or maybe find an intelligent, honorable, informed and qualified individual to step forward in the GOP. All your continued support of Palin does is suggest to the rest of us that you can't find such a person in your ranks.

She was not afraid of a socialist that pal's arround with domestic terrorist?????????????????????????????

Darko December 2nd, 2008 4:25 pm ET

"The govt doesn't create jobs. Businesses and the free market do and they don't do it when increased taxes are in the future. History continually proves this.

Bush got half the equation right with the tax cuts. He dropped the ball on spending. Both sides of Congress let it happen and they're doubling down on it with these bailouts."
_____________________________________________________

Spend (stimulus package)
to get jobs created and money moving through the national community?

OR

Higher unemployment, more failed mortgages, more bankruptcies filed, increased Medicaid, increased welfare rolls (as their unemployment runs out)?

Who pays in either situation? Taxpayers.

Soup? Art? Soup? Art?

Pick your poison.....

Good Grief my head is spinnin' just tryin' to decipher these quotes, and I'm from SC...I'm used to tryin' to figure out what others are attemptin' to say! Sarah really should read her interviews...maybe she'd hire a grammar coach...you betcha! -wink-

I swear, I just cannot comprehend anything she says. Try making sense out of that last quote from her. It will make your eyes cross.

I guess now that Sarah Palin lost her bid for VP with John McCain she presumes to take over the Governor caucus as a substitute, or is it just the media in hot pursuit of a hot Momma. If only she could speak succinctly and coherently, she might have a chance. But please Sarah, I beg you, again, listen to Katie Couric and educated yourself. You just do not make sense – in the English language, that is. Bye!

You people are so funny. Why in gods name are you so scared of Sarah Palin that you have to slam her, call he names, call her stupid.

I think it is funny that she can create such a response from all of you Sarah haters.

I did not vote for Obama, nor do I still believe he is worthy for the office of President. But he won, I will not argue or dispute that fact. I do not agree with his ideas, nor do I agree with his plan of action. But I do not call him stupid, ask him to go away, or even insult him. But you people and Sarah are like small children, making fun of her on the schoolyard. Grow up people.

I bet your the same group of people who worship the ground Obama will ever walk on. You are so immature in your thinking, all you can see is someone you like to insult.

What are you afraid off? Are you scared this woman does really have a brain, can maybe challenge the Democratic party, as well as her own Republican party.

I don't think Palin can show one time where Barack Obama said anything negative about her during the campaign. On the other hand she was trashing him from the time she was introduced. She is living in a dream world and if the GOP is looking to her as their future I think that Democrats will increase their power and remain in power for a long period of time.

Move over Montezuma, we now have McCain's Revenge.

That entire last paragraph isn't even made up of real sentences. Who TALKS like that?

How do voters keep electing Republicans who can't TALK??!

Remember, if you lose the day job, your back to being the average Alaskan fishwife, albeit, a very well dressed one, thanks to the RNC and Neiman's.

Which brings me to my question, just what Valentino frock does one wear to gut fish?

Is it over with yet; I mean, hearing from this woman? She speaks of bi-partisanship... yet, there is nothing bi-partisan about her.

I had to read her statements three times to make sense of what she was "trying" to say... Incredible...

Can this woman not ever put together a decent sentence?

OMG, it just never ends! It's hard to believe she majored in journalism! She's about the most INarticulate person I've ever seen! Just reading over her "sentences" in this article is mindboggling! She absolutely says NOTHING! She just likes to hear herself talk, I guess! She truly has no clue!

What the HECK does this idiot know about savign money. She's notorious for spending, especially when it comes to her family, which I don't think we as tax payers should pay for.

She's definitely up there with Congresswoman Michele Bachmann, maybe we'll see a Palin/Bachmann ticket in 2012 or 2016.

They have so much in common, they're both ramblers, both out of touch and both have a few screws loose. Can you imagine the fun we political junkies would have/!..............LOL

Maybe she could give back all that federal money also, that she took for the bridge that she didn't want as well, too...also. But he does pal around with terrorists, i'd be glad to discuss that, since I'm not one of the gov's he picked...

“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these. This is going to be a matter of re-prioritizing federal dollars though and putting them to use in the wisest fashion for taxpayers, for constituents.”

WOW!

Nikka – Is it me or what Gov. Palin sais is always hard to read or understand
-----------------------

Its not you......its become a game we play to see who has the best interpretation of what she was 'really' trying to say. Her responses are so entertaining when it comes to answering reporters questions.

When are we going to stop covering this woman..........I mean really she is so over..............and also the RNC probably need to take a trip back up to ALASKA to look for more clothes..........She was photographed in that jacket she wore yesterday, in August..............I think it was not a second hand store jacket.................

The reason we want Sarah to go away is that it's an insult to our intelligence to ever consider her presidential material. I don't want a bigoted, unintelligent, superficial person as my President.

OBAMA IS DOING A GREAT JOB NOW AND WAIT TIL HE'S PRESIDENT – NOBODY ELSE COULD HAVE COME CLOSE TO HIS ABILITIES OR TEMPERAMENT.\\

Palin – go take care of Alaska and your family and leave us alone...............................................PLEASE!

I wish she could string together a sentence in something other than grade school grammer..

Thats funny SHE thinks she is going to run for president in 2012. She has a very low IQ. She represents all THAT is going wrong with this country. The duming down of americans started on the east coast now spreading west. Seattle and San Fransisco is all this country has left for progressive cities with a high percentage educated population. SHE IS NOT SMART.

The jabs were not mutual. She had the "dirty mouth."

Just go away!!!!

Chuck – I couldn't have said it better. Her commentary of issues is that of a 7th grader. Can the Republicans be serious? They have Jindahl, Crist and several others whose intelligence leaves Palin in the dust. Media prejudice? I think they should stop talking with or about that lying, self-serving barbie doll.

GO HOME SARAH PALIN – YOU LOST AND WE WERE HOPING TO NEVER SEE OR HEAR YOU AGAIN.

Now that Alaskans have been able to see their Governor in action on the national stage, lets see how smart they are when it comes to her re-election as Governor. If Alaskans give her a second term, than we know the majority of Alaska is dumb like Palin.

Does anyone know what this woman is actually saying? Her sentences are like an endless maze that goes nowhere...

Do any of you have any thing substantive to add? Or do you just have silly barbs and attacks, most of which are just hackneyed hate-bombs.

Sarah REALLY likes the lower 48. How ya gonna keep em down on the farm.........?

So, she thinks that federal government spending is a major concern of governor's? Is she completely stupid? She just can't go without saying those words, apparently. Doesn't she realize that a state has its own budget, and that increased federal spending would only HELP her balance her budget? I guess that she doesn't realize that she has these things called "state taxes" that she can increase in order to raise money for her state. It never ceases to amaze me in how ignorant this woman truly is...also, it doesn't seem like she cares much for Alaska anymore, since she has spent about an hour there since the election. Go home Sarah, and get someone to tudor you on government, please!!!

I believe she's using a random word generator for her responses.

“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these."

That is not a sentence.

She looks like she's taking a dump.

Just imagine if she was in and Biden was out. Every night I go to sleep so thankful that the smart, reasonable, tolerant people triumphed. Palin is just to uninformed, intellectually shallow and narrow minded to lead a country as diverse as the US in this modern world. Obama is putting together a team of smart people but McCain showed he depth of any team he would put together when he picked a low volt like Palin.

I don't recall any democrats attacking her for her and her husband palling around with the AIP so I am not sure what she means when she says it was coming from both sides. I doubt the Obama speeches resulted in any threats to her or her family. She is a star in her own orbit and its spinning out of our galaxy for now....

This guppy is no barracuda.

least educated, least diverse, least tolerant people in the country? Come on now Chuck, name calling makes you no better than Sarah Palin yourself.

I love how she equates herself as accusing Obama of being a terrorist supporter and socialist with the "jabs" that were thrown back at her. Wait a second... what jabs? Can anyone here really recall the Obama campaign saying anything negative about Palin? Yeah.. they attacked McCain for his voting record, comparing him to Bush... they attacked some of his gaffs.. but that's far cry from accusing someone of being unpatriotic, hating the country, or palling around with terrorists"

Why was my comment not posted? One more try....

Palin says:

“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these."

It is obvious that Palin has much work to do...her command of the English language is simply not there.

The jabs were not mutual. The main stream media did Obama's dirty work. Increasing spending to create government jobs is not the answer. Stop the bailout now before it is to late!

Go away already, Palin – you just keep blowing hot air. You talk about Gov spending , but what do you want to do about the millions of state employees loosing their jobs? Oh hard luck for them, but you continue to give out gov $$$ to Alskans!

TheNewGenerationGOP...she's your hope for what? For people who can't speak or type English. Well then...Sarah IS your girl!!

Good grief!

the jabs were not mutual ANOTHER LIE !!!!!!!

Dear TheNewGenerationGOP,

Your reference to Palin as "dangerous" was right on the mark. Well done.

WHEN WAS IT MUTUAL THAT obama said or biden said anything negative or disrespectful about her . again the media did not challenge her!!!!!!!! she made a statement with no facts to back it up. and the media let her slide .

campbell brown where is ur discust with this ??????

I would love to know what "mutual jabs" she is referring to! This woman time after time encouraged the hateful responses heard at her rallies and did nothing! To The New GenerationGOP – you should really look to Gov. Pawlenty, Jindahl and Crist for your direction and leave Gov Palin where she belongs – in Alaska and far away from Washington. This is not the hope you should be looking for!

Everything this women speaks it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. She is a JOKE!

NO MATTER HOW YOU SLICE IT, SHE'S STILL AN IDIOT

I would really really really like a Republican to explain to me why they think that the least educated, least diverse, and least tolerant people in this country are the ones who know what's best not just for the US, but for the entire world.

I swear, this woman makes my skin crawl. Why oh why is she still making news?! I just want ONE day where I don't have to see her silly mug, or hear something stupid she said.

She lost...it's over...please be done with this train wreck.

Are the people of Alaska so stupid as to keep this idiot in office. IMPEACH sounds like a great solution.

John McCain made, at the time, in August 2008, what was, at best a questionable choice to add Governor Palin to the ticket, but the real tragedy is twofold: A. He was a smart, honorable man who only wanted to do what was right by his country, also known as the USA or the place from whence he came originally, meaning in the first place, and 2. She lost the election, whereby the people voted, by which I mean the people who voted for the other candidate, the one from Illinois, and then McCain lost the election. Therefore, Alaska has bountiful resources. Come open us up and find out what's inside, kind of like one of Forrest Gump's chocolates. Alaska has all the keys to solving all of the world's... GOOD LORD! ARE YOU STILL READING THIS??? Someone stick a fork in her... she's DONE – like a fart in a bottle... POINTLESS!

Thank you Governor Palin. I hope this will be your last interview for many, many years.

Sarah say.... ????:::::::::::::________++++++ I love it.

why you people want Sarah to go away ? this is fun..........
SARAH FOREVER.

Who cares what she has to say. The only reason she won't go away, is because CNN keeps giving her air time and web space.

the Ghost of Sarah Palin! AHHHHHHHH!

Will somebody PLEASE get Jaws Palin outta my political landscape!!

She is a FREAK!!

I hope Alaskans realize the stunning mistake they made electing this clueless numbskull to be their governor.

PLEASE AMERICA...DON'T LET THIS KIND OF POLITICAL TRAVESTY EVER HAPPEN AGAIN!!!

Read the last paragraph. Is English her second language?
I know immigrants that have been here for less than two years, that speak english better than this bozo.

FreeNlovit : Economics 101 – Increase govt spending does 1 thing and one thing only...it put us in debt. The govt CANNOT CREATE WEALTH because we foot the bill. Govt merely moves money around in a wasteful manner.

The govt doesn't create jobs. Businesses and the free market do and they don't do it when increased taxes are in the future. History continually proves this.

Bush got half the equation right with the tax cuts. He dropped the ball on spending. Both sides of Congress let it happen and they're doubling down on it with these bailouts.

Bless her heart she still does not get it!

GO back to ALASKA

At least Obama didn't degrade Palin like she did to him.

@ TheNewGenerationGOP

"Sarah Palin go out THEIR and win one"

kind of figured you'd be a Palin supporter. Knowledge is POWER!!

Seriously, what is she talking about? This woman was a news anchor (and a VP candidate!)? She can't speak in coherent sentences! I hope, for the GOP's sake, that her "supporters" wake up and realize that she's leading them down a path of ruin – moreso than her current party leaders already have. We've already learned the horrible consequences of electiing a "beer buddy" for President – she makes GWB seem like a lightweight. When did being ignorant become cool? YIKES!

Cmon CNN...Your comment is awaiting moderation.

“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these."

HUH???? Does anyone understand anything that comes out of this woman's big mouth and pea-size brain? She completely mutilates the English language every time she attempts to speak it.

If you think she is hard to listen to and follow. Try closed caption.
I am stunned to think that the Republican Party would even think of her as the next President. Then again look at the last eight years.

Sarah, darling, Presidents want Governors who has common sense in their administration. Conservatives know you could be manhandled if you were ever to be President because, let's face it, you are dumber than a sled dog. At least they can lead!

Please! Palin is so potent as a candidate and speaker, dems are terrified of her. McCain trailed in every poll from May 08. After Palin arrived McCain jumped into a lead of 4 points. Obama was helpless. He disintegrated over two weeks unable to formulate a response; finally uttered a cry for help when he called her "a pig with lipstick". What a pathetic coward. I'm sure his therapist could see his cry for help. So he got help. He clung to his tele-prompter security blanket for the rest of the campaign. He only regained a lead when the worst economic crisis since the 1930's struck. Lucky guy.. but still a coward.

Sarah please go back to Alaska.

To call a guy a pal of terroroist, a socialist, and allow at her rallies the names :tratior", "kill him", and Lord know what other names were called then look him in the face and shake his hand HAD to take guts! Gov Palin said there were negative things said on both sides, but I don't recall Obama saying such things about Palin....he even said her family was "off limits" when the press tried to make an issue about her daughter. I do recall Biden saying something about her but it wasn't the name-calling I heard on her side. Well that's politics I guess. Everything is all lovey-dovey now!

"Will someone please translate and I'm not trying to insult her!"

- More borrowing and spending is not the solution to excessive borrowing and spending.

We all know this, but apparently Congress and the current and future President do not.

I agree, she shouldn't be the figurehead of a new GOP, but don't discount her when she does speak common sense.

Any news on what the other governors had to say? I would prefer to hear from some of them for a change. They have to be more articulate.

Huh? Maybe that's how they talk in Alaska. I'm not sure what she is trying to say.

She can not still shut her mouth.

Since when does she speak for all of the governors?

It's over Palin and Palin isn't qualified to serve in Obama's cabinet or anyone elses cabinet with no education; the governors that have been appointed are highly educated. Now Obama is going to find out what Palin doesn't know when she submits her State's budget, this should be interesting.

I am really insulted that the Party of Reagan, Eisenhower, T. Roosevelt, and Lincoln would not only run a candidate as this young women as VP least but consider her as a Presidential Candidate. My family has been Republican since 1856 ...as of 2004 not one of my family has voted Republican. You all have lost contact with reality and the Average voter. You need to look at Sen's Snow or Collins for women leaders and Romney on the male side for the future. They will guide you folks BACK from the far right. Plus... they read, are well traveled, and have advanced degrees that are not Liberal Arts. Please give us moderates a choice again

Hate is a bad word to use, so I will simply say that I cant stand this woman!

Gov. Palin is a disgrace. She needs to learn that if she wants respect as a leader she better start showing some back and she can start with showing some to the incoming President. Please make her go away until she can act like an adult in a grown-up world and think before she opens that sarcastic, disrespectful mouth of hers.

Bitter anyone? and Kim J,
LOL.... the only ones who sound bitter and hateful on here are you guys!
The rest are just pointing out the obvious. Your hero is an idiot.
She got the crap beat out of her by a pair of Liberal Democrats. Every time she opens her mouth she writes new comedy for SNL. As one comment said, she's a win, win, win..... YOU love her, the media loves the ratings and the Democrats can't lose if she's on the scene!
Actually, we LOVE Sarah Palin! A laugh a minute and a sure electoral win..... what's not to like?....also.

Sarah Palin
Could have been the first,
Female VP but history took that away.
But someday the Barracuda will have her day.
Sarah Palin go out their and win one,
For Gipper and the nation someday.
2012 remember isn’t that far away.

Also remember all you haters of Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin supporters are like The HULK the more you make them mad and angry the stronger their support for Sarah Palin will be. That make Sarah Palin a very dangerous for 2012. You haters do not believe me just look at Obama and you will see. In 2006 who was he, now he is the President you see. Sarah Palin already got her base. Just now got to wait and see. Sarah Palin gives real hope to a lot of people like me.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
I still cannot believe the people of Alaska, they went to the polls and voted for this lady. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

"Obama should be so proud of his hate spewing followers."

No one has ever spewed as much hatred as Sarah Palin has during the campaign and continues to spew in support of Georga's Senatorial race.

You can't spew racist, divisive damaging lies over and over and over for two months and not have some of the venom thrown back at you.

Get over it. One MAJOR difference: Palin IS an idiot. Just read her quotes in the above article. She can't compose sentences in her brain! But she thinks she can run for president because she's governor of a state where she rarely lives any more because she's so busy enjoying her new-found stardom.

So Sarah, Increased spending? Hmm.

How about 10 billion dollars a month going to the war in Iraq and 75% of it GOING TO THE IRAQ GOVERNMENT (NOT OUR TROOPS).

Our deficit has gone out the roof and they have a surplus.

Sure, let's focus on what Obama wants to spend in the US on the US people, because that is really much worse than spending it over there!!

By the way Sarah, Iraq being the country a bit further away than Russia; you probably can't see it from you house.

I just read that Sarah Palin is neglecting her Governor's duties in Alaska to be a movie star. If her State is complaining about her just imagine her family and her special needs baby. This is what happens when the Clampetts got to Beverly Hills. She better be carefuly that The Dude does not try to find a new Ellie May Clampett while she's running through Hollywood with blinders on......

Would someone out there please educate Sarah Palin about to to act appropriately to an incoming president. When she starts acting like a Governor and if she expects to be respected as a future leader in out government then she should start by showing some respect for everyone in her party and

This is more of the same Palin Derangement Syndrome on display. You people really should seek help. I've heard of a clinic in NY that has worked wonders with Electro Convulsive Therapy and insulin induced comas. You all should try it before you go off the deep end and start actually writing things that make sense. Of course we all know that obama voters didn't even know which party controls congress, and had never heard of Barney Frank and Nancy Polosi.

Oh, by the way, I guess Janet Napolitano got the Secretary of Homeland Security from obama because he thought the fact that she can see Mexico from her house was good enough.

"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity" MLK This to me reflects Gov. Palin, she did not become governor based on her knowledge of issues but like ability. Therefore the media should stop trying to put her out their as a new learder.

“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these."

HUH???? Does anyone understand anything that comes out of this woman's big mouth and pea-size brain? She completely mutilates the English language every time she attempts to speak it.

As long as the GOP allows this person access to their party the Democrats will be winning which is good for the country so let her stay. She is a key example of what is wrong with the GOP and until they get it I don't see them winning anytime soon.

Gov Palin is an idiot!! She has been dissed and doesn't even know it

She needs to be evaluated, she has a mental disorder, can't you see that, just listen to her

Sarah Palin
Could have been the first,
Female VP but history took that away.
But someday the Barracuda will have her day.
Sarah Palin go out their and win one,
For Gipper and the nation someday.
2012 remember isn’t that far away.

Also remember all you haters of Sarah Palin. Sarah Palin supporters are The HULK the more you make them mad and angry the stronger their support for Sarah Palin will be. That make Sarah Palin a very dangerous for 2012. You haters do not believe me just look at Obama.

George Bush, Sarah Palin, man the Republicans sure have become the party of the intellectually challenged.

Will someone please translate and I'm not trying to insult her!!!

Well, I guess we know what 6 months of night does to a person living in Alaska – it takes away your grammar skills! Please, stop her from talking again!

i hope people will ave more time to pay attention what this women is speaking and finaly get what disaster she is.....what she is speaking doesn't make ever sense..it might even sound not so bad but NEVER HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH REALITY. What is mistery of her sucess..away with her........

Shhh ... your 15 minutes is over !

She needs to understand that she is a joke.

How the heck can Palin claim she "knows best"? She doesn't know what the senate's job is, she didn't even know Africa was a continent, she can't name the countries involved in the free trade agreement, and I'm pretty sure she doesn't know what a governor does either! C'mon people, open your eyes and ears! Am I the only one out there listening to her? You have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to see through this GOP red herring!

Why is Sarah Palin still in thenew? PLEASE GO AWAY!!!!

Maybe if the Republicans didn't constantly re-invent themselves and be a tad bit more positive, they would have wond more votes.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.....do a self inventory rather than point the finger!!

Virginia Beach, VA

Yes, Sarah...the campaign is over...and you can't hide from Alaska forever.

SERIOUSLY ALASKAN'S SHOULD ASK THEMSELVES HOW THE HELL SARA PALIN BECAMES A GOVERNER SHE IS THE SANJAYA OF POLITICIAN'S.

She is still an idiot!

Sometimes I think she came from Russia... her english grammar is so bad, that is difficult to understand her. Somebody should check her immigration status...

Why are you all complaining that Sarah won't go away? This woman is GREAT for the Democratic party, and she's entertaining to boot. The more she's seen, heard and acclaimed by the GOP, the better it is for us. All hail Sarah Palin

It is very simple for Gov Palin. Don't request any ear marks or federal funds for her State. Make sure her State does not hire or have lobbyist on the State payroll. She can then have that as her 2012 platform and we will see if it gets her elected.
Maybe she will hire Karl Rove as her campaign manager which would be fun and entertaining.
For now, I am like most, please Gov. Palin drift away back to the far north. You are currently not relevant in most of the lower 48.

What's with the high hair in that photo? Her stylist must have been in the "poufy bun" mood. That aside, Pres. elect Obama HAS chosen one of those governors to be in his Cabinet, Janet Napolitano. Sorry, Sarah, you couldn't get a chief dog catcher appointment. You were just at that meeting for fluff, your hair style notwithstanding, lol.

CAN ANY BODY TELL HERTO GO BACK TO SCHOOL TO LEARN HOW TO TALK AND SPEAK. SHE TALKS OUT OF POINT ALL THE TIME IN THE NAME OF ROCK STAR OR WHAT EVER NONSENSE THE RIGHT WING DEEMED HER TO BE

I am not sure what Palin is doing out there. The campain and.or election is over. We don't want to see her face out there.

So, I guess that Alaska shouldn't get any further federal money for things since it is such a good time up there and no worries with needing money. Alaska is just raking in the money from all they do and produce. Besides oil, what is made, grown or found in Alaska?

Oh my goodness. I had to read the last paragraph three times.

More wisdom from Little Miss Trailer Trash.

Well one thing she probably lost the election for the senator in ga, look what she did to Mccain. Wonder how many of her family members went on the trip too. Wonder if she took her grandson.

Please STOP with the coverage...Please, pretty please!

Her own legislature foundshe abused her gubernatorial power and violated a state ethics law, she was tricked by a radio DJ into thinking she spoke with the president of France, she didn't know what the Bush Doctrine is, she winked and flirted her way through the VP debate, when asked she could not or would not name a single newspaper she reads, she had to attend six schools to finish a bachelor degree in communications, and she cannot formulate coherent sentences in English. The woman is a national discrace.

They will run Sarah and Spongebob in 2010, makes about as much sense as anything else they have been doing for the past 8 years.

I LOVE SARAH PALIN,.,,,Keep up the good works and yes we do understand you...stop the spending madness.

No Nikka, it is not you!!
What exactly did she say?? Anybody???

I'm sorry...

does anyone on this board speak Palinese....

I need a translator....

blah blah blah go back to alaska

Obama should be so proud of his hate spewing followers.

What..in..the..world is she talking about? There is no value to her statements and they sound like a bunch of mismatched thoughts. Her sentence structure and vocabulary annoy me to no end. Please stop...please just stop talking to the press, cause it's painful and it hurts my head.

Did all 50 governors attend this meeting?? If so, they had 49 other people to choose from for this interview. Why couldn't an intelligent, understandable, grammatically correct governor been quoted?? I'm sure the media just wanted to hear what Sarah Palin's take on this meeting was due to the fact that she & John McCain were defeated so badly by the Obama/Biden ticket.

You notice that she is still whining about her defeat. Ha! (Wish she'd just get used to it and Go Away For Good!!!)

hey nikka i feel you on your comment. i never understan her either, and the look on her face i think she confused herself...lmao...

i love it when the press quotes her exactly..........shows how really dopey she trully is.

I think it is time for all of us to do what the President-elect has, and put the campaign behind us. That means stopping the petty personal attacks against people simply because we disagree with their politics. The campaign is over; let’s come together as a nation again, as our new President is asking us to.

WHAT??? The economic crisis may have been caused by too much debt? HEEELLLLPPPP!! Please give us a 6 months break from hearing this woman speak. Of course, her transcripts would be good worksheets for school children to correct and re-organize in a way that makes sense. Please go home Sarah Palin and tend to your State and your children!!!!

Palin's no longer "news." CNN- it's your news cycle that gives her hope. There is no hope. If you (CNN) get off her, let her go back to op-presently important job, here only exposure will be on her own blog, if she's learned what that means.

the dog

Hey liberals, the election is over. Put your hate to rest for a while.

She confuses me! She is the epitome of a politician though... talk and talk and talk – but say anything that matters!

PALIN SAYS: When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these. This is going to be a matter of re-prioritizing federal dollars though and putting them to use in the wisest fashion for taxpayers, for constituents.

Case in point....

NOW she is worried about debt. While we've been spending 10 billion a month in Iraq and putting it on a credit card from the First Bank of China, debt wasn't an issue?

Go back to Alaska, Sarah. Oil is at $60 a barrel and your revenues are beginning to dry up. Go do the job Alaskans elected you to do.

Unbelievable!!!!

Will she not stay in Alaska?

When will this AIR HEAD stop talking and saying stupid things? Oh, wait, everything she says is stupid. I wish the media would quit beating this story line, NO ONE CARES what the moose hunter has to say. Make her stop and just go away!!!!

Hmm, someone just said in reference to Chambliss, for the past 5 days, they had gotten on average 5 robocalls per day with the GOP trashing Martin and Obama. Sounds like Republicans are all for this new bipartisianship to me!

Go home Palin to your FIVE kids, thats the greatest job anyone can have. You are too stupid to be President, I don't know how you became governor in the first place.
Alaska, do yourself a favor and vote this lady OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, my bag. She's talking about the governors that President O.B. did put in the cabinet. Thank God she is not one of them!

Sarah is not going away.

Palin for PRESIDENT '12

How long do we have to contend with this crazy whacko?
She's the freakin' Gov. of Alaska. Let the Alaskans deal with her!

Gov. Palin:

The REAL election is over! I think it's time you got back to work, and earned the salary and perks you are receiving from you constituents!

If you insist on being a celebrity; tallk to boring Huckabee, he'll share some pointers!

P.S. What about doing God's work; helping the poor and needy, visiting the sick, praying?

you will people are absolutely ridiculous, if you want to blame palin for bush's policies then let's blame obama for jfk cheating on his wife, all demcorats are not the same and either are all republicans, she IS an effective governor, end of story, maybe not the best choice for president but she is most certainly one of the most effective and influential governors in the country

i don't wish bad for this person, but calling president elect obama a terriost and putting his life in danger, i can't just look over this, please stop with this coverage lets focus on our country. palin is a racist, it's ovious.

I personally think the media will never stop reporting on this woman because they all think she is stupid. And so they mocked her. Poor woman.

So now she is the spokesperson for all the state governors? Please can this woman get over herself and go back to Alaska and do her jobas governor -for which she was elected. I say it for the last time Palin is not and will never be a politician on the national level. Her being elected governor of Alaska was a fluke and I am sure the good people of Alaska will not make the same mistake in 2010. She is an entertainment piece. The sooner she realizes her limitations and take her place as a talk show host or the maybe the next Sean Hannity, the better off we will all be. Good grief ! enough is enough!!!

Santa, my one XMAS wish is that you super glue Sarah Palin's mouth shut.

What a lightweight this person is

It's amazing that she is still allowed to use words... when time and time again she only proves to be a self serving basket case who rambles ...

I wish the media would let Gov. Palin fade into the Alaskan darkness. I also wish that Sarah would either zip the lips or learn English. How did she make it through college?

I especially "so appreciated" it when she said "the election is over" and two seconds later brought it up. I guess she always talks out of both sides of her mouth.

You mean to tell me that all the governors are part of President Obama's cabinet. I can't understand how this woman won in Alaska. It is amazing how she is taking all the spotlight from all the would be grand ole party boys nominees of 2012. Republicans please pick her for the next election!

God luv her, she just keeps yapping and cons keep eating it up.

It appears that she didn't get that "photo op" she was probably looking for with President-elect Obama. I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall to see how she was probably trying to wheedle herself to the front of the line.....!

Again...more inane comments that really didn't lead to anywhere. What a bozo.

I need them to stop making it appear that she is the HEAD of the GOP...who cares that she "appreciated" them meeting with the governors..they were going to do that anyway...geesh....

"brushing aside ‘unflattering’ comments" ???

Seriously? She was the only one making them....

Being a governor doesn't come close to overcoming Sarah Palin's shortcomings. Sarah Palin is a real personification of what is wrong with a large segment of the Republican Party today. As she has clearly and repeatedly demonstrated she is arrogant and brazen, she is bold and aggressive, she is totally self-focused and grossly dishonest, she is a phony and a taker, she is sociopathic (without any conscience) and she will say/do whatever she thinks is to her advantage, and besides all of that she is vastly under qualified and just couldn’t care less. Those who tout, support and are trying to sell her to America literally want her to be their next puppet, to have her continue where GWBush left off. The Republican Party needs to honestly become more centrist, moderate and responsible to all of the people, without so much subterfuge and concentration on Special Interests. We the voters need to demand that.

What a whiner she is.

Palin, the Princess of America's Uneducated Poor White Trash.

The global media and much of the world were laughing at Sarah Palin for being such a whipped government mule for the McCain campaign.

Palin's Klan rallies sadly showed the true colors of conservative America.

Can a day go by without us having to hear about this moron? Why won't she go back to alaska and dig a hole, or shoot a wolf, or anything else that wouldn't annoy the rest of the country so much.

If I may ask Ms. Palin, of the huge deficit expected, what percentage is attibutable to her party?

Mary are you insane? Palin lost against the Democrats!

Man, what a disease this woman is. Can't someone invent a vaccine to protect the country from her?

Bush and the republicans spent BILLIONS getting America into debt and now Palin is worried about Obama spending money – that is hilarious!

At least when Obama spends money it will be for the 'good' of America!

I cannot figure out what she is talking about! Based on these posts, I'm not the only one.

Sarah – go home!!!!

Palin haters unite Don't you guys/gals have "The One" to follow?

Nikka, you're not alone. I can read and reread everything she says, but still not get her point. It's worse than bad English – it's a total disconnected thought/speech process that I just don't get.

This woman's inability to speak a single coherent sentence is fascinating. How does she do it?

Go Sarah..............

You are the New Voice of America.....

We Love and Need you!

Why is anyone still talking about her? From the time McCain announced her, she was a joke. (Literally. I laughed. I was sitting in a Midas shop, frustrated at how long they were taking and when the news broke in and announced her, I laughed out loud. It made my day.)

In the following months, she only made the joke funnier by making a fool of herself repeatedly and by obviously torpedo-ing what slim chances John McCain had.

So unless the articles are going to be funny–in other words, furthering the joke–can we please, PLEASE stop flashing a spotlight on this woman? Seriously. ENOUGH.

mary,
LOL.... brilliant observation.

Taking the first opportunity to meet with President Elect was a wise decision. Sarah Palin and other Republican governors are shedding crocodile tears when it comes to deficit financing when their own Republican President put the country into Trillions Dollars deficit from Surplus. Got the country into two wars which resulted in death of 4000+ soldiers. Instead of seeking peace, you keep mongering for victory.

"Palin replied that the jabs were “mutual.”"

Uh ... no they weren't. Obama & Biden all but ignored her.

There were 40 other governors there. What did they have to say? Why just target her? Who cares about this goofball?

Would someone please teach this woman to speak English? I can't understand a thing she tries to say.

Palin is as dumb as her bridge to nowhere. You lost now go away

Is it me does she looks like someone told her to stop posturing for 2012 in this photo? I am glad Biden nailed it today, telling her to basically lay off the media and political posturing for 2012.

It is the face of a bursted bubble, a face of defeat. Keep showing those pictures CNN. catalog her ignorance for the 2012 election. I want to see her try backpeddling out of this... She continues to say the attacks were mutal... Did Obama call her out on her connections to the Alaska Independence Party... Did he say " Sarah Palin is paling around with AIP people"... no... it was not in his character. She has no sense of character and it is the reason McCain lost his election so badly...

Sarah Palin should be a game show host, then maybe the media will stop following her around where ever she goes. She could fill in for Vanna White–she wouldn't even have to speak, just point with her fingers and smile! Most Americans are tired of hearing about Sarah Palin. Isn't there more important topics to discuss in this "Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" that we live in today?

It's a mystery why she continually reminds everyone how what she said in the past didn't work... Intelligent people want to remind everyone how what they said or did WAS the RIGHT thing to do....

Airhead.

Let's all pray that she will return to her day job now. I'm sure her constituents would like to see her find her way back to Juneau, considering she hasn't been to her office since the election.

I'm glad she realizes the campaign is over. It's been only a month now. What tipped her off?

"When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these."

These? These what? This moron just rambles on and on and on.... and CNN will not stop giving this boob the limelight.

ENOUGH OF THIS BOOB!

please stop giving this person promotion time...her lie-filled, filth-spewing, egregiously hate-baiting campaign rallies will never be forgotten.She met a real VP in Joe Biden.

It's not just you, Nikka. I still find myself wincing whenever I try to read what she says - or hear it right from her own mouth.

Until when will she realize that the joke is on her and she's the laughing stock?

She's drop dead gorgeous that's all and the the men do not mind in the least to see her rumbling on and on...

Call it a cheap thrill.....

“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these. This is going to be a matter of re-prioritizing federal dollars though and putting them to use in the wisest fashion for taxpayers, for constituents.”

This woman is speaking in tongues again! What is this, Palin Phrase Speak? She appears to think the more words she uses the more important and intelligent she appears.

She needs to stop shoveling the moose manure in the barn, the fumes are obviously causing her to hallucinate.

I don't understand why, after this rigorous election, Gov. Palin is unable or unwilling to put together a more coherent sentence in which to present her views. I hope the press continues to quote her accurately, to do otherwise would be a disservice.

PALIN GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What good ideas is she known for?! NONE! She is a very emotional angry person that just loves attention. Oh and for those wondering how we will get out of this economy slump. The same say we got out of the last great depression – WAR.

Hey Sarah the go back to Alaska and keep an eye on Russia. They know you are out traveling and they might come.

The "jabs" were "mutual"? Can this woman be any more clueless?

She's still a nut. The "jabs" were never mutual. Obama and Biden bent over backwards to avoid saying anything untoward about her. The press and everyone else took care of pointing out what a complete moron the woman is. On the flip side, though, her speech was very borderline in regard to inciting race hatred. The woman is beyond the pale. However, I hope the Republicans do run this pretty idiot. Her loss would be well beyond catastrophic as she brings nothing to the table except for that old GOP standy - McCarthyism.

Between Romeny, Huckabee, Palin etc, lol we democrats will NEVER loose to these jokers. If Republicans want power they better change their song and dance quick or else we'll see a full generation or TWO we're talking 30-60 or 100 years of PROGRESSIVE, LIBERAL DEMOCRAT RULE WEEEEEEEEE FINALLY YES YES YES xD

when you drop-out of colleges five-times just like Pain-Lin, you will know how hard it is to make a complete sentence without rambling!

the sad part is; the republicans want to make her as the poster child of everything that is WRONG with being a RIGHTWING NUTS! – brain-dead, gun-tooting, hillibilly-racoon eating, bible-thumping bigots!!!!!

this lady is an idiot! 6 years to complete a 4 years program.
she does not make any sense. she humiliated herself in the K. C. interview. what a shame!

Sarah, you always mangage to stick your foot in your mouth.

Okay, terrific. Governor Palin, Alaska is that way (pointing northwest). Thank you and God Bless. Happy Holidays, say hello to Santa Claus for us. Buh-bye now. Toodles. Okay. Bye bye. Take care. Really? Okay. Bye now. Good to see you yet again. Okay. Bye now.

I notice every time CNN writes any article on Gov. Palin, the article always gets more comments than any of their stories. Wonder why? And for the most part 99% of them are negative comments. Wonder why? If all of you 'left wing democrats' truly believes she's an idiot, as you say, why do you comment constantly? Wonder why?

Weird. Her quotes are shorter here. Still don't make any sense, but they're shorter. Maybe she's making an effort to ramble less.

Deja vu!!! It won't stop! Voices...run on sentences and thoughts patterns! Incoherant ranting! I can't take it anymore! Ahhhhh!

Then I woke up and found that it was all true. Sarah remains significant to many. Oh the agony!

Obama would be wise to listen to Palin and other conservatives governors... they are the only ones who have continued to balance their budgets in these tough economic times.

Spend spend spend? Didn't work out during the Great Depression... it took a World War to get out of that mess.... Please... NO NEW NEW DEAL CRAP SANDWICH 3.0!!!!!!!

We have had enough of Palin and I myself feel that a none informative person is talking to me when she speaks. I think we should move forward because we have too many more important problems to take care of and work on.

WAIT FOR 2012 , BUT IDONOT THING,MAY BE 2016 IS OK FOR YOU.

Grow up! Senator Biden is EXACTLY where he needs to be. Unfortunately, you have yet to grasp the fact that no one (except the extreme right bible beaters) wants you here. Go back to Alaska once and for all!

Palin is that stain on the carpet that you can't completely get out. I hope she does not get re-elected.

Yo' you half-wit Moose Mom, your party is the one that is leaving office with America 7 TRILLION dollars in debt.

Perhaps you should clean up your own party before yammerin' about Obama and overspending, you twit.

"unflattering’ comments made by both tickets during the campaign"

she was a such divider and hate spreader during the campaign! unflattering is a mild word for her comments
I just hope Alaska like Utah don't get help from Washington. It would be unfair if she could build her bridge to nowhere! Here in Utah the situation of many families is very bad but the LDS managed the votes. Now they have to live with their votes and live the republican way: no health insurance, a lot of foreclosures, poverty up.

Y is someone still putting a microphone n her face?

I will give this woman one month of my hard earned salary to go away. I cannot believe we have American still believing in this woman. Can a smart female from the GOP please stand up?

Here she comes again!!

Is she even speaking English?

It'll be "overall great" if she'd just fade out....

To stay sane, Obama needs to stop looking at the stock market and stop measuring success by the stock market. He needs to do what he has been called to do – forge a plan for long-term growth. If you build a solid foundation, we will survive. The important point is jobs, jobs, jobs and peoplel will buy and the stocks will go up... it's jobs.. jobs.. jobs...

Will someone spend some time teaching this woman to speak English? Has anyone tried to diagram a sentance from her?

How many governors do we have????? I know the answer to this, but I want to hear from other states besides Alaska. Move on people, if she is going to run in 2012, have her start thinking outside "her" box.

Speaking from someone in America that doesn't live in Sara's patriotic part of the USA.

You betcha also.

Geez... have we had enough of this low wattage bulb yet?

49 days till the end of the Bush administration.

please stop asking her what she thinks

PLEASE SOMEBODY TAPE HER MOUTH SHUT. SHE TALKS LIKE A 10 YEAR OLD CHILD. DUMB AS A STUMP. ALASKANS ARE EVEN TIRED OF HER. BUT SOMEBODY PLEASE TAKE HER. KEEP THE MICROPHONES AWAY FROM HER UNTIL HER GRAMMAR INPROVES.

...who will rid me (us) of this meddlesome priest?

Talk about that 15 minutes of fame going into overtime.

Enough already! Please.

You lost. Move on!

No federal money for Alaska would be a good start to cut spending

I can't believe this woman still haven't learn how to talk...

"Mutual Jabs", I don't believe the Obama team using fearmongering, warmongering, racism or division on the trail. Boy this person sure is full of it!

Why is she talking about the economy when it's so very obvious she has no idea what she's talking about? Our current problems were caused by too much debt? What a vast and unfortunate generalization.

Does she ever speak in a manner that you can understand what she says?

Obama/Biden are grown-ups, being next to them must clearly highlight that she is in no way prepared for a national office.

Let's give her her wish of no debt incurred for Alaska. They do not need a stimulus to their economy, I guess. Fine- cut them off!

Governor Palin, please go back to Alaska. Your 15 minutes are up!

Is the only governor who can speak to the media? Please, her 15 minutes need to be up.

What, exactly, did Obama or Biden say that was "unflattering" about Palin? As I recall, the Obama campaign went out of it's way to NOT mention anything about Palin's ties to questionable groups, quirky religious ceremonies and abuses of power.

Read that last paragraph....excuse me, SENTENCE! Good grief! At least she could learn a little bit about the English language!

Or, here's a thought, maybe she could learn something about economics. The LAST thing you want to do if you are trying to create jobs is try and balance the budget. First you get jobs for people, then tighten your belt. This is BASIC economics people!

As many Democrats who have posted here, I would be glad to have Sarah Palin run in 2012.

She just can't let it go can she....I'm sure there were much more qualified Repub governors you could have talked to CNN??? I can't follow a word she says.

Sorry, Sarah, but I don't remember Obama or Biden making an "unflattering" comment about you. Never. THE COMMENTS CAME WHEN THE MEDIA BEGAN TO RESEARCH YOU, BLOGGERS EVEN MORE, AND THEN THINGS GOT UGLY FAST. You, on the other hand, could barely get through a sentence without calling Obama some absurd name or other. Remember those rallies where they were calling out "lynch him?" You caused that; you encouraged that; you smiled at that. I do hope that IF the Republicans decide to keep you around, you have learned from the experience and will try to tell what you believe and what you would do, instead of being so negative and mean all the time. Not flattering, and doesn't work. You lost any respect you might have had going in when you started lying at the convention (we haven't forgotten about your bridge remarks) and things went downhill from there. You came off as nothing more than an attack dog for McCain.

One good thing about living in the 21st Century is the fact that we have SCIENCE at our fingertips. We have so many ways and options to explore the future. The tools and technology is there to grow the economy. So this is really good. The downside is we need to tame GREED.

Look at it this way. The governor behind Palin is none other than Brad Henry of Oklahoma. the states last stand against total republican control.

Palin need to go away...far far away...like alaska so we don't have to hear her dumb-self.

CNN - STOP COVERING THIS IDIOT.

I love how Republicans like to say that immigrants that come here should learn english.. but they never require the same from Sarah Palin!

Why are Obama supporters so mean?

What?!? Her statements are nearly incoherent. Just for fun, someone needs to diagram her sentences from above. What an image.....

You know you are right. She won't be going away as long as the media feeds her 'wannabe anything to all of you!' I would love to forget she was ever a candidate for anything and blame McCain for pushing this really bad dream on us. Her quotes, if correct, are incoherent.
Please make her go away by the end of the year.

Palin is not a ROCK STAR - She has ROCKS in her HEAD - DUMB, DUMB!

Good idea Governor Palin: no more federal dollars for you.

maybe she went to the TASTE OF CHICAGO, outcome a PRESIDENT ELECT, now it's time to go back to Alaska for Moose Stew..

Just wait. After her daughter has that child, Palin will pop up again. She needs to be helping her daughter make wedding plans.

Palin is a Win Win win.The republicans love her.The democrats will never lose to her.And the media gets great ratings from her.Keep her around.

She can't tell the truth even when she isn't campaigning. The jabs were NOT equal. Obama and Biden DID NOT attack her anywhere close to the terrible things she said about Obama.

Spending? We bailed out Wall Street (financial industry) without asking for business plans. As long as we dont have any transparency to what had happened to the money that was given out to Wall Street, America will not go anywhere. Why arent these CEOS removed or working for $1.00 like the AUTO CEOS? How come there's no accountabillity with them? We did not punish GREED but we gave more money to GREED. How is GREED supposed to stop destroying America?

Who cares what Palin has to say? Let's hear from some REAL Governors who aren't prima donnas!

Hold up- did she just say the jabs were "mutual"?

So... Obama/Biden callled her a terrorist? A Socialist? Un-American?

Did they ignore their supporters shouts of "kill her" at thier rallies?

Did Obama say "I guess a community organizer is sort of like a small-town mayor , except that you have actual responsibilities"?

This woman is too much...

Please Just Shut-up. Go find a Moose to skin or a wolf to chopper hunt and shoot.

You are not the face of the GOP.

CNN, please let Sarah the Clueless fade into the obscurity she so well deserves . . . Please?

HA! being a governor isn't the only qualification. the governor must also be smart. for example clinton. he was governor of arkansas and a rhodes scholar. we saw how well his presidency was. another example bush. he was governor of texas and a c student. how great of a job did he do with the economy? governors don't always know best.

Still can't make heads or tails of what she is saying.

I BLAME MCCAIN FOR BRINGING THIS WOMAN OUT OF HER HOLE AND NOW SHE WON'T GO AWAY.
SARAHHHHHH GO AWAY!

Once again, Sarah shows how much of a seasoned public speaker she is. Sarah–shut your ignorant mouth and return to governing the ignorant, cultural backwater in Alaska.

Gov. Palin should stop trying to engage in topics she doesn't know anything about. The popularity contest is over. It is crazy to hear pundits say, that she is a fast learner. Bill O'Reilly even stated that she could be tutored. From what I remember, she was saying that the presidency was no place for OJT. Why are these people KEEP LOWERING the bar so much. Imagine, they expect the country to stand by, and wait for Palin to come up to speed. She would have to enroll in a college and spend at least 8 years to try and keep up. America does not need a person so uninformed, not intellectually inclined and with little intelligence.

Is she still the Gov. of Alaska ? I think she's now hooked on the lower 48 politics, isn'nt it time to get back to work Sarah ?

PALIN IS LIAR, THE JABS WERE THROWN BY HER ALONE , I WISH SHE WOULD JUST GO BACK TO ALASKA AND JUST SHUT HER MOUTH WITH HER STUPID REMARKS..

She still hasn't learned how to form a coherent sentence. Oh My Gosh ! Someone educate her.

Please go far, far away Ms. Palin .... PLEASE!!@!!

The woman does not know how to speak the English language. Criminy!

I'm here [governor] and VP-elect Biden is there [VP],” she said. Thank Heaven for that!

This is not a serious person. It is not enough to quote her rambling nonsensical sentences. CNN needs to just stop publishing her words.

I understand from my friends in Alaska that Mrs. Palin may need to break out her map and photo ID the next time she "visits" Juneau. See, she hasn't actually been in Alaska's capital since she was chosen for the Republican ticket. But she probably doesn't have a personal political agenda keeping her away from her real job!

Not worth commenting on.

Enough with this woman! Please! Enough!

It's funny how everyone is aiming for 2012 or 2016 and beyond. Who knows, we may not even exists as the most powerful nation if we cant come together to do the right thing.

Increasing our debt to solve our debt problem is something that real-life bill-payers couldn't possibly understand...because we actually have to deal with bill collectors, instead of just printing up some more money like the economic geniuses profess.

But what do you know Sarah, you're state of Alaska has a budget surplus. How dare you speak the truth!

I am begging you to stop covering her. Please, we have had enough.

Sarah who?

I dare someone to insult my wife.

Why is it whenever Palin is quoted, I have to go back and re-read her comments about 3 times to figure out exactly what she's saying. She starts a sentence, changes directions, adds unnecessary words, repeats portions of the sentence.... and my head is just dizzy by the time I finish trying to figure out what it is that she said.

Palin needs to remember that she's the only one that ran around spewing hate-mongering, race-baiting rhetoric during the campaign. Hers were much more than just "Jabs". Further, how nice of her to state the obvious. Perhaps with Senator Stevens not in the Senate anymore, giving multi-million dollar pork-barrell projects like the bridge to nowhere, we will finally have real fiscal prioritization from the Obama administration. She can count on that – ya-betcha!!!

hmmmm!! u STILL there....

wow – the GOP does not seem to learn any lessons....

She is here to stay. There may not an America in 2012 or 2016, the way we run GREED first over RESPONSIBILITY.

"governors “know best” about the economic issues raised Tuesday."

SO, the President leading us headfirst into this economic mess was a what before taking office? A Governor you say? Hmm..

Sarah Palin was not qualified to be President then, she is not qualified now, and she will not be qualified in 2012.

Why do the Republicans STILL insist on perpetuating this lie?

It's good to have Governors with brains in the Obama 's cabinet and not idiots like Sarah Palin.

Learn to speak english before showing up again!

There goes Sarah, palling around with terrorists.......

Is it me or what Gov. Palin sais is always hard to read or understand

What is this womans educational background, DEAR GOD. Why can she not articulate her thoughts well. My 4 year old newphew does a better job at structuring his sentences... I mean geez, give me a break..

Am I the only person that recognizes this.. Either she is extremelly smart, or the institutions she went to are extremely stupid, but something aint right!

Ah, Sarah Palin......you are the only person who can ramble endlessly, say nothing, and look like a bigger fool by the time you end a sentence.

Did she just slightly ADMIT that she was lying!!!!!!!??????

Not Funny she should have said remember when i called him a socialist, and a terrorist??? that was a lie!

The Alaska governor briefly waded into subject of Tuesday’s meeting, saying that she and other governors present had “great concerns” about increased spending under an Obama administration.

“When much of the economic problem that we are facing today perhaps was caused by too much debt, that solving those problems will not come from incurring more debt so we do have some concerns about these. This is going to be a matter of re-prioritizing federal dollars though and putting them to use in the wisest fashion for taxpayers, for constituents.”

Does she have a plan?
Does she understand that her party had the Presidency and wasted away the surplus that was left?
Will she EVER GO AWAY?

She needs to pull Arnold over to the side and educate him about this debt thing. He has his hand out for CA and I think she could help.

Please go away.

Increased spending under Obama? W's spending was like 13 trillion dollars... He needs to increase spending to save America. It is needed to create jobs.

My wish has not been granted. This woman will never go AWAY!
