To those of you who will move if Palin would run and win. Good bye, don't let the door hit you in the rear.

You say how much damage can be done in 5-months? This administration has spent more money in 5-months than all the other Presidents combined from G. Washington to and including G. Bush.

You think the economy was bad when G. Bush was in office, it only started going bad when the Democrats took over power in the Senate and Congress.

You keep on patting your selves on the back that Obama is president. You had better read what legislation is being signed and just what kind of power you are giving the Government. You say it can't be any worse than the last 8-years, wait and see!

I think Obama is a twit and a ding bat, but guess what? He got elected president, thanks to ACORN. I thought Jimmy Carter was bad, Barrack will go down in history as being the worst president ever.

You think Hillary has more experience, at what? A president's wife?

Why is it okay for Obama to quit being a senator, but Palin can't quit as a governor? That's not only racist, it's also discrimination. Look who is calling the kettle black. I have never seen people who have won an election cry and whine as much as you have been. What's the matter, can't you stand the heat? It's only going to get hotter. Remember? Global warming and all.

This is the most outrageous I've ever read.How dare this woman to be even joining politics let alone as a quitting governor to earn more bucks for a book deal or stupid things to say.This is an undereducated
someone ..who has the nerve to to run as a vice president of our country...it's like Imelda Marcos running for attorney general in America,
no brains at all,please stop this palin stuff,it only thrash America further more...You just can't even imagine such a thing as palin for President...then let imelda runs for attorney general.The nerve and guts of this underdeveloped and uncivilize woman,who even thrashed her own daughter ex boyfriend...it says everything about where she came from.
God have mercy on this lowlife Americans who have no idea or whatsoever,in this multi,complex society of ours.
God bless our President Bam.

Susan Lewis, I couldn't agree with you more. The thought that people would actually vote for her is chilling indeed. McCain/Palin was scary enough, Palin/Anyone would be a mockery of our democratic process. The Republicans better start finding qualified candidates if they're ever to be taken seriously again. The down home "Hockey Mom" shtick is fine for the PTA, not the White House.

I'm not sure why people, especially Republicans, insist on stating that Obama is messing up the economy when Bush and his gang did such a good job of it during the last 8 years. Not only did they mess up things locally but internationally. Give me a break. How much damage can one do in 5 months? Keep in mind that a lot of this mess was from when the Republicans had control or the government and now all they can do is complain. Its just really ugly.
It just funny to me that Bush spent the first few years of his term on vacation and I think Americans should be commending Obama for all the work he is trying to do in such a short time. Its really not fair to expect so much in such a short period of time. At least he is trying and Obama has touched on every topic that is a concern to me and many americans out there.
as a minority, I think that it goes back to that old saying that, in America, if you are of the minority, black, or a women then you have to work ten times harder. Thats been my experience in this country and I'm sure its Obamas. I think this country should be so lucky to have someone in office to have someone that understands other countries religions and habits but also someone that is willing to do what he can for this country. Come on America you cant live in a shell forever. You have to live and work with the rest of the world.
It seems sad to me while the rest of the world is fighting for democracy and freedom, this country can't stand behind their president, be positive, and to find productive ways to make our country better. While some people in this country want Obama to fail, people in other countries are finding him as a source of hope for them to fight. That makes me proud of Obama and this country.

No matter how it all appears.. Evil never wins over good.. Evil can only win over other evil or over the human weakness of the unfaithful .. Sarah Palin did a great job for the for conservatives during the primaries “Just like Obama did.” And now same thing.. Nobody is twisting anybody’s harm to belittle her and “Somebody made me do it” is incontestably no excuse.. But with all those well worthed compliments aside.. Sarah Palin can’t sing a tune of her own.. and so for that reason I don’t believe she’s qualified for presidency..

The Republican Party needs to revamp...but even so, I am sure their intelligence will prevail and by-pass this choice.

OH YES! By all means Obama is so much smarter. This is the man who said, "I visited all 57 states." And Biden is just as smart, he said "JOBS is a 3 letter word." And Obama not only quit, he took a pay for all those months he was on the campaign trail. Although the last part of this comment him taking a pay, might make him real smart for some people. LEAVE HER ALONE ALREADY. Pay attention to the economy that Obama and Biden are screwing up!

Sarah Palin did the right thing. Wish her well and know that she will do very well financially and will serve as a powerful force for the Republican party in whatever way she chooses to. Yet, I see her as politically polarizing as Republicans saw Hillary Clinton when she was running for Senate and then for the Presidency.

The main difference with her and Hillary is that Hillary is a lot more experienced, and much more knowledgeable about foreign affairs and about the United States and the world in general.

If Sarah Palin would do some serious studying and research on world affairs and learn to be a bit more cohesive in her speeches, she would have as much chance as Hillary had to be a viable candidate for president. However, Hillary lost.

Tom – you have GOT to be kidding. Oh yeah – I see the resemblance. Except for the intelligence and the curiosity and the ability to think on one's feet and command of the english language and a grounded understanding of cause and effect and a savvy feel for the political times, they're identical!

I can't help but question if she would have resigned as the Vice President had they won! ~ She may be playing the same game as Obama did, but I still disagree with her on key issues. If she does run for President, I hope that people will push her to answer some tough questions instead of crying wolf and blame it on the media being unfair! Having been to Alaska several times and talking to people who live there, the questions that I had from day one have still gone unanswered and only more questions have arisen.

America – let's support Obama now – it is Bibical you know, and stop trying to tell the future. Leave Palin in Alaska – Only the Lord can know our tomorrows – we could put this media money to much better use than spreading all this stuff around about Palin. Please stop – feed some kids or something with this media, tv, advertisement $. Joane in Rickman, TN

Finally a piece where you are not insulting her. Thank you very Much. You may not like her, but guess what, that is what makes this country of ours so great. We let everyone no matter what their race, political party or religous beliefs, have at least a chance to better themselves and maybe do something great for their country if they can.

The very idea that this individual could even get nominated, much less elected, chills me to the bone.

I will move to Canada, I promise.

As a nation, we have toally lost it, if she is not dismissed as the intellectual equal of Dan Quayle. He is ridiculed to this day.

Why does this nation revere stupid women????????
