UPDATE: Check out our Beat 360° Winners!

And now I'll show you what the American voters have determined I'm good for – let's play a game of cat's cradle!

The gap between republican philosopy and reality is really only this big.

.....then you just snap the Moose head off. Its simple.

As you can see, we dropped the ball on this one!

"In case you didn't want to hear me talk about Joe the Plumber, the exits are here, here, and here. Now watch me fluff my big hair."

Really fellas, John and I only lost the election by this much...

Ooh, ooh... I solved our fuel crisis. If instead of driving everywhere, we used giant slingshots...

"See I know where Africa is....wait what, that map behind me isn't Africa?"

"If I would have been on the top of the GOP ticket...we would be on our way to the White House."

does my hair look o.k.????

that's not superficial is it????

what's superficial again????

Governor Palin in her role as an Angel: See, Tina Fay, I can act, too!

'I love John McCain this much!"

Sarah Palin and her air-flute: "Are we not doing the talent portion?"

Go Democrat .

I'm only stretching the truth THIS much on my clothing allowance, PROMISE.

Well let me tell ya, Russia is only about this far from Alaska!

We only needed this many more votes.

Russia is only THIS far from Alaska....

"This is how big my ego is...honest"

Sarah Palin auditions for her new role on "Jane Housewives of Alaska"

In the Great State of Alaska, we're only this far from Russia.

I just want to CHOKE that gotcha media sometimes!

Where's my flute?

I keep tellin' ya, Russia and Alaska are only this far apart, and we gotta keep our eye on them.

I was *this* close getting into the White House!

Get ready for me, 2012 is only this far away!

"Are you ready?"

"what you say.. no drama with Obama?"

Look out Romney, I know Karate!

Given the realityism that we must now face, I believe we should be just about this far right of center.

Now that my ego and I spend most of our time doing interviews in the Lower 48, Alaska is only this big...

"I just answered all of Obama's 63 questions. See ya in Washington in January".

Practicing the pose for QVC???

Please note the front and rear exits on board the Straight Talk Express.

I'm not a real politician, I just play one on TV.....

Can you say residuals? How about syndication?

My hands are tied on this one.

Up there in Alaska, 'RG' is my new nickname – Republican Grandma!

"Hey remember Joe the Plummer?"

You put your right in hand in, you put your hand out , you put your right hand in and you shake it all about......

And while I'm up here, I'd liketa show everyone where my home state of Alaska is!

MK, NYC

"You see it's like hunting. It's time to grab the party by the throat, squeeze the remaining life out of it and mount the trophy on the wall...I'm your trophy"

This is how close we are to Russia up there in Alaska. Not how close the election was!

In the future we'll only lie this much!

Hey Tina, thanks but no thanks. I will stick with my air flute skills.

"Of course I know where Afrika is!!!!!!!! It's in Egypt."

This is my own idea to reshaping Republican party, better than ever!

That Moose was THIS BIG!

Oh yeah? I'll really show you "going rogue"!

You betcha!

"Now that the campaign is over, this about how far I am willing to move out of the spotlight""

Well, we're getting back into the swing of things back in the great state of Alaska. You know, hunting, fishing. Last week we had the Putins over and ole Todd caught one this big doggoneit! You betcha!

Just A Moment! I've Got Another Shut Out.

Gov. Sarah Palin, the would-be VP, explains how Russian Gambit could be seen from her backyard.

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water....

Keeping Todd on a short leash is how I get things done, dog-gon-it; he's the families hypo-allergenic mutt.

"See this? Oh darn, where did that bunch of experience go?"

"Ok I don't know who swiped it but I'm not budge'n til somebody returns my most popular life form award"

My head is now THIS big.

Republicans, come, follow me, I'm the Pied Piper.

Alaska is this much better than any other state!

I can't wait to tell you, I am the only one for 2012.

What do you think is better 'Palin in 2012' or 'Palin for President in 2012'. I've got an order for bumperstickers pending.

When Putin rears his head, I'm gonna be ready to grab it!

The talent portion of the debate? They stole my darn flute!

Russia is about this far from my house.

Thank goodness the RNC only gave me this much rope.

The RGA is represented by many talented Gov'ners .... and then there is ONE REAL Gov'ner.... you betcha, your look'n at her!

"I don't know about the Republicans' future, but as for me.....I'm going to be one of the 'Deal or No Deal' models that hold those shiny metal cases!"

Palin shows the press her Vanna White impression.

Landslide? No way! We only lost by this...much.

Sara says "If only I could get my hands around Katie Couric's neck"....

Presto! all "RG"s , I' ve you all showcased between my hands !!

Oh–those guys backing me? They're just cardboard props for the 2012 election.

Back to work!

Right over here, I'll be selling a Road to Galveston.

The RGA is represented by many talented Gov'ners.... and then there is ONE REAL Gov'ner..... you betcha, yer look'n at her!

Palin's ready to plow through but the other governors won't play ball.

Can you imagine the headlines? Palin for President in 2012!

And who says that I am not smart. Look at me!!! I can answer your questions and play at the same time.
To be or not to be.... Was that the question?

My foot is that big. My mouth is obviously bigger.

The new Republican Party will follow the yellow brick road for help from the Great wizard of OZ in 2012.

I was this close to being President, uh, I mean, Vice President.

The baby moose I shot was about this size.

Alaska's new sling shot. First you knock the animals down and then kill 'em.

Only the presidential flute is missing.

I caught a whopper of a campaign. It was about THIS BIG.

You see...I got this lock box....for all the old cranky 'publicans.

The door needs to be open this much for me to plow through it.

"No, Gotcha Media. The RGA behind me does not stand for 'Rogue Governor of Alaska'."

No, No I have absolutly no idea what I'm talking about. I'll make a great politician.

"Joe the Plumber...oops, wrong speech."

Minnetonka MN 55305

Sarah illustrates how she can see the White House from her kitchen window.

You see, Republicans are on the right. No, not right as in right side (see my example?), right as in RIGHT, like we are always saying the RIGHT thing right. Then I realized thats not the case. This explains why I bombed so many TV interviews. Because I had that wrong understanding. I blame Alaskan English for this!

"I had a mooseburger this big for supper last night."
Minnetonka MN

These guys up here with me are, yep, my props.

I once had a moose burger this BIG!!!

"Focus in on the 'RG' folks ..because that's just what I am ...Rogue Gal!

The question is, which one of you will be my running mate in 2012?

Open the door like this, for 2012 ............so I could go right throught it........

RG (republican governer) for now... PP later... (president palin).

"And if any of you governors criticize my speech, I'll call you a jerk on CNN."

This $150,000.00 dog leash is on loan from the GOP

Russia is like this far from the house.

This is what I'd look like if I had won an award for all my blunders!

Ya betcha we need smaller government, so we must have a government around this big.

Yes I can ! I caught a Russian spy satellite in my teeth and it was about THIS BIG !

Sarah Palin demonstrates how to choke your competition.

This is how far Russia is from my house!

We came this close!

We got Texas and Oklahoma ..... Danr tootin' we'll get 'em all for 2012!

Now, These are the hands that killed a moose. When I become the leader of the Republican Party the Moose will be the "PARTY ANIMAL"

so... you do like my new hair style...

I may not talk this evening about future plans for the Republican party, but this is the size of the Salmon I caught.

Annoyed at reporters questions, Palin turns to the air flute during a briefing at the Republican Governors Association.

"Would you like to buy a vowel?"

Darn it, I was only this close to being able to see the White House from my back yard.

And if you look over here, you'll notice an exeptional offer that's gonna secure the GOP's future : my presidency 2012!

Andy Warhol thought that I have about THIS MUCH time left. What did he mean?

I believe that we could end the economic crisis by opening up Moose Chili stands all over this great country.

Palin drops America as she tries to shake things up..."it's just a case of butterfingers dontcha know"

Jessica, 21 Atlanta

"You betcha I can Hula dance!!"

So, you know, you've got your pro America areas over here... On the liberal media's maps these would all be colored red, like my lipstick!

If I just knew THIS much about Africa....

Vanna White doesn't have executive experience!! McCain & Palin for host & letter turner of Wheel of Fortune 2012!

Let me play an imaginary flute to unite the GOP.

See how I can make my ego bigger on this magic map... just by the wave of the hand.
