Roberto   July 3rd, 2009 6:38 pm ET

Guess what she announced? She can see the moon from her back yard! Run Sarah, Run...AWAY real fast!!! LOSER

jaye   July 3rd, 2009 6:36 pm ET

Best announcement I've heard all year!!! LOLOLOL

Sick -n- Tired   July 3rd, 2009 6:26 pm ET

Oh no! She's actually gonna try to run for the White House! LOL! As Spongebob Squarepants would say......."Well"...................."Good luck with that"! What a joke!

jt   July 3rd, 2009 4:34 pm ET

Palin can't leave the eye of the media soon enough! Go Sarah Go.

MO Inkslinger   July 3rd, 2009 4:24 pm ET

Sarah must have gotten an offer as a flight attendant that she could not refuse!

XLD21   July 3rd, 2009 4:00 pm ET

She is pregnant-she's not sure if it's Letterman or Rodriquez!!!

Carol   July 3rd, 2009 3:58 pm ET

The thought of Palin even running for the Presidency makes my skin crawl.. none the less being President. I know our country has deteriorated but I can't believe to that extent. Where are her advisors? Palin is an embarrassment to women!!

Jamey   July 3rd, 2009 3:56 pm ET

Bigot Liberals have to be shaking in their panties...... Sarah is going to be a voice for the the RIGHT (minded) people of this country.... Hopefully she will be there to counter everything that Barry and his gang try to pull over on the good American people.

Martin   July 3rd, 2009 3:54 pm ET

Being President ?

Against Abortion , even though it is Rape or Incest....

God help us all

Maria   July 3rd, 2009 3:52 pm ET

For all of you been so unfair to Gov Sara Palin, do you all have a steady job and paid taxes. Because if you are been talking without knowing the responsibilities you have as an American you shoud not be so rude and uggly with your comments. This Lady deserves respect from all of us as others who in someway serve this Great Country. I hope Gov Palin does becomes more involve in the next election, she definetly have my vote, Go Sarah.......

Dwight Frye said: Sarah Palin will whup that Obama and his ragtag army of acorn malcontent ignoramusses (that hang around the CNN boards spewing irrational hatred)– you betcha!

ummm.... so what are YOU doing if not "hanging around the CNN boards" spewing your own version of hate?

hypocrites for palin. yay.

christopher   July 3rd, 2009 3:45 pm ET

Maybe we'll get lucky, she'll run and get elected pres in '12. Then she can slap her socialistic windfall tax on oil and gas companies over all of the U.S.- not just in Alaska.....Wait, that won't work- better include all energy companies just to be sure. And if you don't think her tax on oil/gas was socialistic, learn more about her and about socialism.

Turd   July 3rd, 2009 3:40 pm ET

I truly can not understand how any educated American could support Sarah Palin in politics at any level. We live in a frightening age when someone who once asked how to get rid of books she didn't approve of from her local library can be taken seriously. I thought her 5 minutes were up. I truly do not understand the star-atttraction – even a train wreck gets old after seeing it enough.

tom N   July 3rd, 2009 3:38 pm ET

It is amazing how many liberals hate Sarah Palin. There is more that they hate than her politics, they hate her Christian faith.This animosity is based on fear of a Bible believing Christian aspiring to political office. God forbid we have any moral absolutes in this land, and we hear constant complaints of immorality on Wall St. and rightly so, however you can't expect people in the business community to have any sense or right and wrong, if society does not embrace the Judeo Christian standard of our founding fathers. Take that you hypocritical double standard bearing, moral-less Liberals. God have mercy on us.

are you seriuos   July 3rd, 2009 3:32 pm ET

going to work for EXXON MOBIL...........

Antonio   July 3rd, 2009 3:21 pm ET

It's amazing how many don't see that she was not utilized properly. She does deserve a certain amount of critique, come'n did she not understand that we were talking about THE VICE – PRESIDENT SLOT! She wasn't ready, to keep going at this says alot more about us at this point. Mrs. Palin stop second-guessing, go with YOU.

Dwight Frye   July 3rd, 2009 3:19 pm ET

Sarah Palin will whup that Obama and his ragtag army of acorn malcontent ignoramusses (that hang around the CNN boards spewing irrational hatred)– you betcha!

Dwight Frye   July 3rd, 2009 3:16 pm ET

After Obama wrecks the country and plunges it deep into debt, Sarah Palin and her Alaskan record of no-nonsense conservative governmental accomplishments is a rising star sorely NEEDED by this sinking nation! Go Sarah!

Christine   July 3rd, 2009 3:16 pm ET

Once a loser, always a loser.....take a lesson from Norm Coleman.

Peter   July 3rd, 2009 3:14 pm ET

If only we could teach a Moose to hunt.

conservative mother of 3   July 3rd, 2009 3:12 pm ET

I believe the majority of the folks that have commented should get a life and leave Sarah Palin alone. Your'e just Jealous!

Gpenn   July 3rd, 2009 3:08 pm ET

Sarah Palin will announce that Alaska has suceeded from the Union and she has been crowned their queen.

Donkey Party   July 3rd, 2009 3:06 pm ET

And if it were important or relevant, you wouldn't announce anything on a Friday, especially bafore a holiday weekend. What is she going to do, announce her support for our troops again? Give it a break CNN, you guys are no different than the National Enquirer.

Rosalinda Torres Lawrence, Mass   July 3rd, 2009 3:05 pm ET

I Sarah Palin will be taking a LONGGGGG!!!!!!! vacation, and wont be in you're faces for at least the next 6 years!!!! if only one could only wish.

JT   July 3rd, 2009 3:04 pm ET

Who cares???????????????????????

Donkey Party   July 3rd, 2009 3:03 pm ET

WHO CARES!!! Enough with the reporting on this nobody, we don't care!

Dorothy   July 3rd, 2009 3:02 pm ET

Unless it an announcement admitting her lies and stupidity – who cares?

worriedmom   July 3rd, 2009 3:01 pm ET

ok????? so why waste space untll you know what it is gonna be about. geezz

Dave in Nevada   July 3rd, 2009 3:01 pm ET

Please oh please tell me she's running for the Republican nomination for President.

Caribou Barbie's Back   July 3rd, 2009 2:59 pm ET

Did she find the "First Dude" climbing the Appalachian Trail on her back porch?

Mike in Maryland   July 3rd, 2009 2:58 pm ET

Maybe she just took the G.E.D. exam and wants to tell us the results.

Robert   July 3rd, 2009 2:57 pm ET

An announcement? Maybe she will promise to go far, far, away. I am hopeful,,,

Joe Terrogano   July 3rd, 2009 2:54 pm ET

ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Zach K   July 3rd, 2009 2:53 pm ET

I hope its Not Running For Another Term.

Stay out of politics Sarah.

thetruthisoutthere   July 3rd, 2009 2:53 pm ET

Anny   July 3rd, 2009 2:51 pm ET

About What? That her other daughter is pregnant

Jim   July 3rd, 2009 2:51 pm ET

She is probably going moose hunting. We can only hope.

60's survivor   July 3rd, 2009 2:50 pm ET

?announcement. could you be more specific?? is she getting out of politics because it's such a dirty game? who insulted her this time?

Accountability   July 3rd, 2009 2:49 pm ET

Who's she mad at now?

I. A. Frank   July 3rd, 2009 2:48 pm ET

She'll annouce that she's checking into Betty Ford.

Richard Levine   July 3rd, 2009 2:44 pm ET

It would be best if the news stops covering her. She has nothing inteligent to say!

Lary Craig   July 3rd, 2009 2:44 pm ET

no one cares

Babs   July 3rd, 2009 2:41 pm ET

Please please please–.It's to say she's permanently retiring from politics

Crazy ass human being   July 3rd, 2009 2:40 pm ET

She can't see Russia anymore–The trees have grown to tall!

elly   July 3rd, 2009 2:39 pm ET

What the h*** is thia?? I thought CNN should have better Editors! What is this supposed to mean??? Palin will announce something on Friday?? What is she announcing or at least about what?? Why not just leave it till that Friday.. This is Journalism at its worst!!! Step UP!!

S M R   July 3rd, 2009 2:39 pm ET

The grass roots movement is too strong to ever lose to a " know nothing " bimbo like Palin

shut up!!   July 3rd, 2009 2:38 pm ET

there she goes again...

Flex   July 3rd, 2009 2:37 pm ET

Shouldn't this be posted in entertainment?

Who cares?   July 3rd, 2009 2:36 pm ET

I know it's wishful thinking but I'd love her announcement to be "I'm moving to Russia."

sRalin   July 3rd, 2009 2:34 pm ET

Resignation?

People's Voice   July 3rd, 2009 2:32 pm ET

She's going to tell us her daughter is pregnant again? Todd's had an affair? I just can't wait for the news!!!

sandee in Portland   July 3rd, 2009 2:31 pm ET

Who cares? I, for one, don't care what this idiot of a politician says. It's time for the media to move on to reporting on people that can actually make a difference in our world, not create soap opera/Jerry Springer material.

Michael M, Phoenix AZ   July 3rd, 2009 2:30 pm ET

Why isn't she in her office in the capital?

Frank   July 3rd, 2009 2:28 pm ET

When I hear that there will be rationing of healthcare,and that the econ is out of control with Obma in office,I wonder who is talking.I guess empty headed fools,are we not rationing healthcare now…,i.e. Only the ones who have the means to pay for it are getting it at this moment,was not the econ: in a mess just six months ago,come on give me a break.Use your common sense.All the just say no people are using every tactic they can think of to make Obma look like a failure.It's the same old same old thing they have been doing for what

Al-NY,NY   July 3rd, 2009 2:28 pm ET

Oh be still my heart.....What will it be this time? She and the first dude will be having another child with a stupid name? What's her name (the unwed mother, aka a financial "parasite") is pregnant again? She's killed another moose via helecopter?

Tom - LA   July 3rd, 2009 2:27 pm ET

Sarah can't help herself. Our beloved MJ was getting to much attention in the last week and she was seen stomping and screaming that she is being ignored for a true Genius!!!!!!

westcoast   July 3rd, 2009 2:27 pm ET

This should be good....

banks   July 3rd, 2009 2:26 pm ET

Get her to Shut UP already   July 3rd, 2009 2:25 pm ET

Can someone please stop the presses and tell this idoit to shut the heck up. She is a total disgrace.............!!!!!

Next story on her should be in the entertainment section or the soap opera drama queen section.

S M R   July 3rd, 2009 2:23 pm ET

If this announcement ends up being a run for President, the USA will be the laughing stock of the world. If she would ever become President, I would leave this Country and never come back.

Nailin' Palin   July 3rd, 2009 2:23 pm ET

This is news? Really?

please go away   July 3rd, 2009 2:21 pm ET

Hopefully the announcement will be that she plans to stay in Alaska and the lower 48 won't have to hear her name and her garbled whining ever again.

Pitbull with Lipstick? She's a Chihuahua with lipgloss.

Chipster   July 3rd, 2009 2:20 pm ET

crickets zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

proud army navy mom   July 3rd, 2009 2:18 pm ET

oooh I no., Palin wants to admit to being one of the woman that Sanford crossed the line with,. Maybe she's his soulmate too!

proud army navy mom   July 3rd, 2009 2:17 pm ET

what could it be? Maybe she and Todd are pregnant again?

She is Not Part of Our Party   July 3rd, 2009 2:16 pm ET

Who in the Heck cares... This lady can not help herself she needs a role in the movies like now because she loves the camera's......

SHE IS A HAS BEEN AND WE ARE SICK OF HER. Period....................................

Tanya Kujath   July 3rd, 2009 2:16 pm ET

Is she finally going to announce that she doesn't have a clue?

nebraska blue   July 3rd, 2009 2:14 pm ET

And we care. Why?????

JWB   July 3rd, 2009 2:13 pm ET

She is going to Argentina?

Nothing 'Stand Up' about Sen. John Ensign (R-NV)   July 3rd, 2009 2:13 pm ET

Maybe this time she'll take on Jerry Seinfeld or another comedian for some comment that she didn't like. She proved that she can beat Letterman. Yeah, she'd make a great world leader.

Palincomparison to Obama   July 3rd, 2009 2:13 pm ET

This woman is a lunatic. A hateful and ignorant woman.

Repugs – REALLY?

You're really convinced there's enough ignorance left in America to elect that?

REALLY?

Don   July 3rd, 2009 2:11 pm ET

Well we're all just on pins and needles waiting for this.

Denise   July 3rd, 2009 2:11 pm ET

Announcing what pray tell? No pun intended.

Andrea   July 3rd, 2009 2:10 pm ET
