CNN

She needs to visit Iowa...Saturday Night Live is going down in the ratings again...

Palin is like so many parents. They know how to have children but don't know how to raise them. She should spend more time raising those children she brought into this world that she thinks are so-o-o special. Parental supervision is lacking in so many homes and her's is no exception.

I see more basic differences here then conservative or liberal.
Curiosity: Who do you think is the better person Sarah Palin or Howard Stern?

New Age Democrat? You are typical. Wishy-washy.

I suggest that all of you take a course in grammar and punctuation before posting any more comments. The improper use of apostrophes alone is enough to drive a person crazy.

Also, your (not youre or you're) web browser should have a spell check function.

@James..... if the liberals had their way, every aspect of your life would controlled by them? Seems to me, that is much more a 'social conservative' agenda, than a liberal one. Who wants to control a womans body; who wants to dictate what books are available in libraries; who 'defines' marriage between a man and a woman? Last I heard, those are conservative platform issues.

I think it is vitally important to keep Sarah in the limelight until the SNL season resumes in the fall.

I'm really in need of some good comedy.

I'm a Conservative who wouldn't vote for Ms. Palin because of her lack of big time political experience in a large urban arena, but I admire this woman who has shown the moxy and courage to take on the hate mongers of the liberal left, including that clown Letterman. No matter what she ends up doing I wish her well.

Dictionary definition of RESIGN: To Quit, To leave, To give up.

Keep speaking out, Sarah! We need you to tell it like it is - about the big, fat Obama/Axelrod scam that has overtaken our country.

What about the New Jersey race? Let's see if they want to be associated with a QUITTER.

People do not hate Sarah Palin.... what they dislike is a completely unqualified person which such a big ego they don't realize they aren't qualified (i.e., Bush). She has shown over and over that she is just not qualified to run the country... she has shown that she doesn't even know HOW the government is run... and frankly, she has not shown any interest in LEARNING how the government is run. Just the other day she referred to "the whitehouse... law department" - WHAT!?! Yes, she is a decent speaker while Obama is a great speaker.... but let's remember... President Obama has a first class education, is a lawyer, a Constitutional lawyer at that. You really can't even compare the two.

There is so much Sarah haterade which means one thing---she is doing something right!!

Sarah keep smilin while the haters keep hatin!

Way to go Sarah. I know you will make the people of Iowa proud. You have the democrats on the run, can't you tell by reading their crazy remarks here.

get ready here she comes with that whinning, 2nd grade volcabulary. i can't stand that pitbull in lipstick. she is a quitter. she can't control her kids and she can't run her home state, she is ignorant of on geography and politics, what makes her think she can run the county. she will have us on the bridge to NOWHERE.

Palin could probably win in Iowa, but no way when the primaries move east. So her going to Iowa will prove nothing, although, I would really like to see her in the debates with other republicans who know what they are talking about. Everyone will not be behind her like they were when she was a VP candidate. Know she'll be debating with people who are after the same job. It should be quite something to watch, and laugh about.

This whole GOP party: Leaders and followers are one big joke. The world must really think that 48% of Americans are out of their minds to glorify Palin with her I.Q. of 49.

Palin needs to realize that her 15 minutes of fame are up, and she needs to go away. She's an attention hound that will do anything to stay in the spotlight. If she goes up against Obama, Obama will win by a landslide. For all you Obama haters out there, he is doing great. Get over it. Palin thinks everyone is out to get her, and that they are "waging a campaign of hate" against her. This is nothing compared to Bush.

Meghan McCain, Joe the Plumber, and the other election 08 names have gona away. It's time for her to follow them.

Sarah Palin besides being a loser is also a quitter.

That said I find it highly entertaining that Republicans think that by repeating over and over again that Democrats are afraid of Palin, will actually make that come true (here's a clue it didn't work for Bush).

The good news is the more this quitter talks, the more people are driven away from the Republican party – cementing the fact that the RNC is now a regional, marginalized party with no power and no prospects...

To J:

Somehow we now have someone in the Whitehouse who is unqualified for public office. And I bet you voted for him. Does that mean you are uneducated?

Seriously, I can't think of a thing that he has, to make him qualified, that she doesn't have. In fact she has one thing he doesn't. Traditional
principles.

This is just the beginning of Sister Teresa Palin's "higher calling."

OH......PUH...LLLEEEAASSEE Make it stop!

I have never seen a person attacked like the liberals have attacked Palin and her family. They should hang their heads in shame the way they have acted toward her. Why are they so afraid of Palin?? The ones that attacked her family are scumbags period....

I for one don't hate or even dislike Palin. It's finally brought to attention the far left hate that is killing the Democrat party. She's a bright woman who is extremely accomplished. I'm amazed at how uninformed so many Democrats are about her accomplishments, yet they site proven lies about her as facts.

The ultra-liberals, who spread the lies about her should be held accountable for their vile tactics. They are not a part of my party and are the most hateful group of people I've ever witnessed next to the Nazi party.

Dutch/VA,

You must be an operative. No one who actually works has that much time of their hands to spew the hate you do.

Sarah Palin = all yak and no shack...

Too bad Palin is not sitting in the white house instead of the pathetic loser that we are stuck with.

Why do some say that the liberals are afraid of or are threatened by Sarah Palin? I say let her come down. She's always good for a few laughs.

Washington Republican approach: Priviate speaking engagement, Sarah = big yes. Build her up and say you love her and her family. Public speaking engagement = no way. No way we want her showing up at a fundraiser, next thing you know, everyone is shouting Sarah Sarah, she smiles, next thing you know, someone is shouting kill the ____, she smiles, next thing you know, a fight breaks out, cameras are filming, etc. Meanwhile, behind the scenes in "commentary" writing, hint she is over for the Republican ticket. Promote TPaw.

It won't be a long speech. She'll begin to address the crowd, but QUIT half way through. That is if she doesn't make the plane turn around and quit half way through the flight.

To Connie, if she is a normal woman why would any guy ever want to get married? I can't imagine waking up to hear that whiney, high pitched squeak of her hers everyday. I am a single guy and so very glad for it.

OMG This is so COOL Palin Coming to IOWA!!! and as a KEY NOTE SPEAKER?!!! she will ROCK THE HOUSE WITH HER WISDOM and Insight,, you becha !!

J,

You must be referring to Obama.

I predict that she will be out of the limelight by this time next year.

CONNIE,

I'm going to answer your question. The reason there is so much hate for Palin is because she is an embarrassment to the United States. She talks like a moron, constantly contradicts herself and loves to play the victim. Hell even most women are embarrassed of her, and yet the sheeple will say they are jealous. Jealous of what?

Americans hate quitters. Americans hate whiney victims. The only threat us "libs" have of her is that the international community may think that most Americans are like her.

Oh and by the way, the position of POTUS should never be held by a "normal" person. Does anyone on this site own a business and would hire a normal person as opposed to someone with intelligence just because the person is donw to earth?

Picture this scenario: Palin becomes president and two years into her term a war breaks out. She can't handle the pressure so she resigns because "this war is taking time away from her family".

But hey, you wanted a "normal" person running our country. And "normal" people can't handle all that pressure.

Can't wait to see clips of her speech:)

Quiter Quiter Quiter Quiter

She may have "the base" but she doesn't have the swing people!!! Stay in your Crack Capital Town of Alasaka for good, please!

The world laughed at the racist princess of the Christian Conservatives and her legions of bigots last summer and fall....Those news reels of yesteryear (2008) are getting dusty.

It's time to reveal to the world once again the true face of the American bastardization of European Christianity found in the Palin ideology of Conservative Christian Republicans.

Light up the crosses in Iowa Christ Nazis....the global media will be ready. It's Showtime!

The continued interest in this woman only goes to show the mentality of the American society!!
This lady don't have a clue and is pretty much in this for the attention she is getting. If she was in some way able to be the GOP nominee for 2012, then i know the world is coming to an end!!

Iowa? Please those country bumkins and palin belong together, let her go let her speak my question is how in the heck can anyone stand the sound of her annoying voice for any lenght of time.

All you people who keep saying " i don't know why people don't like sarah" well let me enlighten you. This nit wit was the biggest embarrassament to mccain and his campaign. mccain wasn't going to win anyway and this nit wit made sure of that.

@ common sense, who said "I am a long time DEM with pro-choice view. But the Palin phenomenon made me so so curious. I think she is a person with charm and can deliver very good speeches like OBAMA. Is this the reason our DEMS are afraid of her so terriblely? "

LOL. If you're a Dem, I'll drink the Pope's bathwater.

CONNIE,
Didn't you watch her hate-filled speeches during the campaign?!?! She blames the media for attacking her, but then she invites them to accompany her on her private family fishing trip. She can't complete a grammatically correct sentence unless it is scripted for her. She used GOP money to dress her up like a sexy barbie doll, but then attacked anyone who comment on her sex appeal. She has been cited for ethics violations but feels like she has the right to tell me and all other Americans how to live our lives. I could go continue with my list, but I think you get the point.

common sense, you are most definately not a Democrat, nor are you thinking.

1. The American people fight each other and criticize each other over absolutely everything, so there is no reason why they wouldn't do the same to Palin.

2. Its human nature.

3. No one is afraid of Palin, other than being afraid that twit would actually take power. She's a brainless bimbo.

I thought it was interesting to read the earlier snippit about how Sarah still has to deal with the various ethics complaints lodged against her. The point being brought up by someone, that she's being unfairly targeted by the left in this manner.

I think it'd be VERY interesting to see a cross section of all 50 governors, and a listing of the various ethics complaints lodged against them. It'd be informative as to whether this claim of being unfairly targeted bears fruit. But, of course, good luck finding any journalist with enough integrity to investigate that aspect (and to do so without any left-leaning bias).

I'd rather be a conservative nut job than a liberal with no nuts and no job

You know everyone jokes about Sara Palin, but don't forget this is the United States. A place where we watch the Michael Jackson funeral 31 million of us. And where we can't wait to see how L.Lohan messed up. Or see what B. Spears is up to. We are a star driven culture where sports stars are honored more then war heros. So I'm scared that Sara Palin is part of our star culture. She isn't going away while many of the DEM. say their just waiting for next train wreck that is Sara Palin,but just keep this in mind sometimes the train just keeps going to the end. (W.H.)

The claims against Sarah Palin already caused the AK people $2 MIL. I believe for the sake of the state, she better resign. There is no reason to waste the state's money against such frivalous charges against her. (Almost none of them won the case.)

I am not a fan of her. I am not sure if she will run / can run. But to be fair, she was trashed so badly. The media only report on the made up / biased stories agaisnt. It will has consequences – it will push people like me lean towards her.

As a Moderate/ Libertarian Republican, I don't consider myself to be strongly conservative. However, I would far far rather have an ultra conservative in office, vs having a liberal in office.

If the liberals had their way, EVERY ASPECT OF YOUR LIFE WOULD BE CONTROLLED BY THEM!

Even as a moderate in favor of bi-partisianism, I could proudly say, Go Sarah go!!!

She truly cares about the average middle class American family :0)

Thank God the GOP is putting Palin on the road supporting their candidates. Fortunately Governor Perry of Texas has accepted her to campaign for him so we might be able to get the Democrats back into power in Texas and change this carpetbagged state around.

Not surprising.....as much as some of the pundits would like to think she's gone.......they are wrong.

She's sly as a fox and I hope the Democrats don't under estimate her power within the Conservative community.

Hey – why not. The best hate-monger the taxpayers money can buy (remember KILL HIM, KILL HIM).

Definitey what Iowa needs. Hate and sunflowers.

Of course the state where their representative is the long opposer to a bill acknowledging that slaves built Capitol would love to have her.

The Congressman's defense? "The bill isn't balanced enough". Yeah, right, slavery wasn't either. Palin should feel right at home.

Very appropriate – Reagan and Palin have a lot in common.

Neither is/was very bright and both lie/lied constantly (Iran Contra anybody)!

This is a wonderful idea. Sarahs the greatest and, at least, more experienced than Obama was as a senator with less than 160 days service to his electorate (you know the very people that he said he would represent for 6 years and that he didnt have any experience to be president?) yea thats him. anyway, the people, real people not elite northeners, love sarah so i hope she attends and gives a great speech about how the liberal dems are cut throats and will do everything in their power to destroy this country.

Obama is failing miserably on the economy, unemployment and foreclosures.....

Obama also has no credibility with Iran, N. Korea, China, the Taliban or Al Qaeda....

Tell me again-why do we need Obama???

Run, Sarah, Run. All the way to the Oval Office......

As far as I know, Sarah Palin is not an extremist as the democrates painted her. She is a very reasonable person with moderate views. She said she respect others' choice in case of rape ... She never said she was pro-life in case of rape.

I used to believe what the main stream media brushed her, but as I took a closer look at her view, her words, what she did for AK, I found out that what she said was quite different from what the main stream media painted her.

So I decided to learn more about her. The more I knew about her, the more I like her and respect her.

I can complete a sentence better than she does and i am a foreigner where English is NOT my language. I learned how to speak and write English when i arrived at this Country.

Pls. What a Joke. Now can someone tell me what her qualification is??

Not even a one term Gov.

Now what is her qualification again????????

lol... I LOVE it when REPUBLICANS spout about HATE from liberals!

What a bunch of victims. Not a grown up in the bunch.
Poor losers. No Morals.

Caribou Barbie, sit down and STFUP!!

Please, please, please stay in the media's limelight. Hold a press conference like you just did every month. Give interviews in hip waders and covered in fish guts. Do whatever it is possible to be in front of the camera. We need you in 2012. America needs you to run for president in 2012. The world needs it.

That way, the democrats, the only party that actually can be called "real americans" now, will win in a landslide. 70 senators in the Senate and 16 years of the Dems in the White house.

For the sake of our children, please.... don't shut up. For the sake of David Letterman's career, more news conferences.

Please ouch. Are the GOP nuts for asking this fruitcake to come be the keynote speaker? Sarah sucks and she is a quitter of the Alaskan people. She will never ever never ever be President! She dont have what it takes. She is a selfcenter, stuckup, n quitter, and dummy of the GOP pottyI where is the tissue?

We all have seen enough of Palin now, please someone send her on a moose hunt with Cheney.........

Run Sarah Run!!!!

If Sarah Palin wants to quit her job as governor of Alaska in order to build her war chest for a run as the next Republican presidential candidate, let her do so in peace.

We simply have to sit back and watch her self-destruct as she did when running as McCain's vice presidential candidate.

It's sad that the only reason many conservatives like Palin is because she likes to attack the left so vocally.

Palin for President.......Forget about those hateful, jealous, vindictive,conniving,closed-minded, arrogant liberals. They are scared to death of you. If the biased media , AKA George Soros puppets,ever actually reported on your TRUE beliefs, they know you would win. Instead they have to lie and tell obtuse confuscations about you to blur the truth. GOPalin

I can almost guarantee that this comment will NOT be published.
The media HATES the truth about ANY conservative.

Awesome! As a Democrat (who voted for Bush 1 & Reagan), I would LOVE to see the currently desperate-for-a-savior GOPs throw all their time and resources at this snide, snotty trainwreck. They indeed have better candidates, but at this point have either deluded themselves into thinking there'll be a revival of the good ol' President Rove days (thankfully now more dead than Michael Jackson) or are just too confused and paralyzed to move forward. In any case, life goes on ... How long till Meghan McCain turns 35?

I have always had respect for Iowa, but the Iowa GOP gives the state a new meaning for: Idiots Out Walking Around.

that is it (cnn)keep embrassing your (right wing network) it very clear the gop is in the abyss of politics and party,and they told palin to resign to energize that doomed party and try to save its existance. she will not be a factor,she quit and america does not like quitters. iowa is the presidents lift-off and they love the president there,has the gop stooped lower to a deseprate act ,to use this loser to gain points for the (gop).the people in iowa are not stupid,but the gop is in a coma. sara palin is finished, david letterman baited her right into a trap,and she took the bait. and started running her mouth,and it came back to backlash. (cnn) why do constantly push this non factor, she is not even out of woods in alaska on ethics charges.(cnn) every day you test the waters,and cant you see america does not want palin as the majority.the gop is in stupid land.

She has difficulty running her family, she could't run the State of Alaska, but boy she can sure run her mouth! "All Show And No Go" Palin!

why do people hate Sarah Palin, what has she done to anyone to have so much hate written about her and her family. Why America I need to know, what has she done to anyone personally except ask to be John McCain vice president choice. Is it because she is a normal woman or what i don't understand it. and i know CNN won't print my stuff.

I am a long time DEM with pro-choice view. But the Palin phenomenon made me so so curious. I think she is a person with charm and can deliver very good speeches like OBAMA. Is this the reason our DEMS are afraid of her so terriblely? There is no reason to attack an idiot. Only idiots will waste their time in doing that. But there is a strong reason to attact a brilliant and smart woman.

I guess so.

Stupid is as stupid does.
Wink ... wink ...strut .....strut ...

some of us dont care for palin,she can stay home

Please stay away! You are making a mockery of our government (although I will admit it's not hard to do).

It is good to see that the liberal HATRED is still there!!!!!

The ONLY reason that there is soooooo much HATRED towards Palin is because the libs see her as a threat.

Palin breaks the MOLD of what liberals think a liberated woman should be. The problem is that Palin is what a TRUE liberate woman is and they cannot stand it and her confidance prooves it.

Amazing that some people are so uneducated that they can't even tell when someone is so obviously unqualified to hold a public office.

I guess underfunding education for all those years is starting to catch up to us.

@Willy: July 9th, 2009 3:40 pm ET

Go get them Sarah. The liberal's are running scared!
----------------

No Willy, it's not the liberals that are running scared right now, it is the GOP. There aren't enough of you Palin groupies to vote her in and she can do a lot of damage and cause a great deal of division in your party between now and 2012. She is the gift that just keeps giving to the liberals.

I like Sarah Palin because she makes the political scene have humor. She is good for laughs with all of her screw ups and gaffes. But I would never vote for a person like. Keep the laughs coming.

Heck yes go to Iowa and speak, we all want to hear some more of her vile words about our President and about who is true americans and who isn't and make a fool of herself and the GOP........she'll cause these people seeking election to lose, I haven't heard one Republican in our town meetings speak very highly of her......they don't even want her to represent their republican party....they are in disbelief of her Quitting her elected office as Govener or Alaska.......so I don't know where you are getting your poll numbers......try another poll and include more people in your polling

Going to Des Moines would be the next logical step for Palin. She can definitely accomplish her goal of "fighting for the people of Alaska" there.

Obama: ... we didn't "misread" the economy, we just had "incomplete information ..."

Hey, come on, Barack! Next time don't say "we have to pass it quick." You and your Adm. should learn a lesson from it. Your misjudgement made us into HUGE DEBTS.

Sometimes "boldly and swiftly" is NOT A GOOD THING. We are not economists but ordinary American people with common sense.

I hope she does go to Iowa so people can stop hearing about her. She has been vetted, many people then/now question her ability and ethics. Let her go and lets be done with her.

Sarah Palin is the patron saint of quitters everywhere!

Bunch of idiots.

Of course she'll be their keynote speaker...are you kidding me? It's all about Sarah now!

People want MJ news to go away. Why is this broad still around. MJ visit other countries and is aware of issues abroad more than Sarah. She is the biggest disgrace, country bunken, fish catching embarrassment to the GOP party.

Sara Palin and Michael Steele are going to be used by the Repubicans Party. Sara Palin could not get any women voters of Hilliary and Michael Steele will never get any black voters.

Sara Palin will only bring in the money and Michael Steele I really don't know what they really need him for becasue no blacks plan on voter for any Repubicans ticket any way.

Go Sarah, we love you and your family...don't worry about those who are so full of envy and the ugly hate mongers who can not even come close to being the person you are. You know you and your heart and anyone with any common sense can see how much you love this country and her people.

God Bless you and your wonderful family and God Bless this wonderful United States of America..

sarah palin as we should know by now acts and decides as she pleases- she is not comfortable with people telling her what to think-how to think and decide-
to the contrary, she wants to be in charge–

she may be right in leaving her office for the sake of the state, knowing that she brings controversy–but what i don't understand is why she did not leave her bid for vice-president knowing that she is hurting mccain and the party-what is going on now is expected–her opponents will not let her put the party at risk again in 2012–

What is wrong with you people in Iowa. Why would you want someone who can't speak a complete sentance?
Iowa just lost some points on the respect scale.

I think I'm going to barf. No... I know I'm going to barf. No wait... I am barfing.

Way to go Iowa

I really do believe that McCain rues the day her dumped her on main stream America. It will be very interesting these next months watching the GOP presidential hopefuls, especially Jindal and Pawlenty, distance themselves from the blubbering praise of her they continuously dished out last fall. Very interesting indeed.

Go Sarah please. Provide more comedic fodder for us. We can't get enough of your idiocy

Really this lady has become a pawn-

Aides to Palin have not immediately responded to inquires from CNN regarding whether the outgoing governor will attend the dinner.

Yea, as unually she and her staff will be on different pages regarding whether she will attend the dinner and this is what the Repubicans want on the 2012 Ticket.

Article before this one is Michale Steele
Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele dismissed recent extramarital affairs by two prominent members of his party as "old news, old school" at a GOP dinner in Indianapolis on Wednesday night.

What a joke the Repubicans party have really became. The American people will not be so quick to dismiss the Party of the So Call Family Value and the Stupid party that think Sara Palin quitting her government job is going to help her win the White House in 2012.

Stupid is Stupid does.

The Dems will be in office another 4 years.

Sara will do well on the convention circuit if she wishes too. She is good speaker & good looking too.

How can people say Palin doesn't have experience when Obama was a senator of a corrupt state like Illinois and did nothing about it

...an iowa corncob in an outhouse is more useful than palin. oh well if they do convince her to come the smart folks can use an iowa corncob to wipe her off of them...

Great news!
A potential and vialable Republican candidate for 2012.

By all means, go to Iowa. Spend lots of time there. Win the Iowa GOP caucus in 2012. Go on to win the Republican nomination if you can.

That way, Obama won't have to work so hard on his reelection campaign and can focus on solving this country's problems.

I love how the Palin posts clear 300 comments in minutes. More than 85% are people saying she doesn't matter and should go away.

If she is that unimportant, stop commenting. CNN and all the rest will lose interest as the views will have shown they have and move on.

Fact is you DO care and love the chance to spew hate filled comments about people. I am sorry you are that upset that you feel the need to do this. I only pray that is where you stop as words from a keyboard. I hope in your daily lives you are not like this to people.

God bless America, her people and her President.

The GOP gubernatorial candidate Bob McDonnell doesn't want sarah Palin nowhere near him. lol. That's says alot. Even the NJ candidate said the same thing.

I would like to keep up on any news suggesting Sarah Palin will be running for the 2012 presidency.

I can't stop laughing.....Help!

is she all you got, I pity the GOP, a quitter, I admitt she is pleasant to look at

Go have fun in Des Moines Sarah. Ater this month, you'll have alot of free time on your hands. Let them gas your head up that you're qualified to be the POTUS. I really hope that you get the nomination in 2012 so the President can wipe the floor with you. You won't make it out of the Northeast. We really don't like you here!

Palin is awful she cant even run her on state....Palin is the biggest loser....The republican is doom

Go get them Sarah. The liberal's are running scared!

If she follows her usual pattern, first her office will tell Iowa she's coming, then she will publicly deny that she's coming, then her office will ask Iowa to pay for her kids and Todd to come along, then she will deny that she's going, then she will show up at the last minute and be miffed that she doesn't get to speak.
