    Sarah, darling, when are you going to learn that you are just playing into the hands of the media with each new invective you spew? Simply say "thanks, but no thanks" (like you did with that Bridge to Nowhere, wink, wink) and hang up the phone. Also, you'll want the media to be your friend in 2012; therefore, I would advise against trashing them at every opportunity.

    Sarah could answer the question about who the mother of Trig is by releasing her medical records, or just the ones around the time of Trig's birth. Something Sarah has yet to do.

    Steve... MEDIA RELATIONS? are you kidding? Sarah got SLAMMED for everything she said or didn't say. She and her family were demeaned , email hacked and made fun of. I have never witnessed anything like this attack in my 50 + years. Disgraceful.

    I just wish CNN and the other media outlets would read these comments and realize that NO ONE is interested in whatever Sarah Palin has to say...

    Do we collectively have to turn off the TVs and stop reading your on line publications before you get the message?

    Silliness no longer has much tolerance in America... George Bush has surely cured us of that ....

    Oh...you mean like she lied about firing the Public Safety Commissioner for not firing her brother-in-law? Well, if anyone could recognize lying it would be her...she must be right 🙂

    What an absolute loof! If it wasn't for McCain choosing her as his running mate, I would have voted for him.
    Coulda, shoulda, woulda gets you no where now. Can you imagine her as our President and Commander in Cheif? If you don't have a set of nuts in teh beginning, you're not gonna get them at all.

    This woman needs to take a page from the Obama play book. If you screw up, you move past the mess as soon as possible. Admit the mistake, ignore it and make it a non-issue; do anything and then stop talking about it. Don't keep replaying it over and over again. That's politics 101, even I know that. She keeps trying to argue this issue about 'I can see russia from my house'..... blah blah blah the more clueless she looks. Every politician gets snipets of their words grabbed on by the media, fair or not. The difference is, if you are smart, you move past it real fast. The more I hear her post-election interviews, the more I think she will have no chance becoming the next GOP candidate. Hell, at this rate she may not even make it through her next governor race.

    Isn't it funny how liberal whiners complain about somebody else's whining! All I ever heard from the press was that Obama's family was off limits for any comments or criticism. Apparently that was not the same for Palin. I don't blame her for being annoyed. Also....a word to some of the women here: Nobody is saying that you had some obligation to support this woman just because she's a woman...BUT...why does it seem that some of you go out of your way to prove it by trashing this woman? Man, some of you women are nasty. You won't be happy till you rip out her uterus. Let's all be honest here. If Sarah Palin looked more like Helen Thomas, you would think she was a freakin' genius!

    Please go do your job. If you really intend on pursuing politics on a national scale again, what you do right now is giong to tremendously effect those odds. As far as I can see your obsession with the public and medias commentary will render that impossible. Please use your head, and lead well – but stay out of the press with articles like these, or your career will end itself.

    Why is she giving legitimacy to these rumors? Let her ask John Ewards about this! Imagine her being U.S. President or VP and the world writes about rumors. Will she start waging war about these? Serious lack of judgment and maturity. Please go away..

    This is soooo September 2008. Welcome to the New Year, Sarah and CNN!

    Ms. Palin. Keep quiet. I do not agree with the myths (Trigs real mother) but I am fascinated that you continue to show your lack of knowledge and depth. I beg you. Concentrate on the work of serving as Governor of Alaska and take care of your family. Your endless desire to play victim and stay in the news is not helping you…at all.

    I do wish you the best.

    ........and this is the woman that wanted to be VP of the USA, and some people really, really wanted her to be also. Americans consider yourselves lucky she is back in Alaska and not representing your country in the world.

    Palin is dangerous and yet still a joke, but you CNN need to stop giving her so much coverage. Granted, she's fair game and juicy fodder, but she's irritating, and even her quoted words in print grates on the nerves like chalk on a blackboard.

    Shame on you John McCain for inflicting this woman on the human race.

  14. Kris

    Please, please go away! Why don't you focus on the problems of your state, and not your own state of affairs. You are the people of Alaska's servant. Serve and SHUT UP!!!!

    Palin shows her true colors when she delivers one of her devisive, polarizing and accusatory speeches full of falsehoods and half-truths. She seems so full of herself when she incites the dittoheads who hang on her every word. Our country has suffered through enough of "your with us or against us" leadership. Her brand of politicing continues to take us down that road and will not lead to healing and trust in leadership. Credibility has taken a back seat to deception. We deserve better.

    Yeah, too bad bloggers can't be honest like she is! I really don't think there's any doubt who is truly pathetic ... she can be seen above. Eat me Sarah!

    At least those poor teenagers won't have to get married now that Sarah lost the election.

    PARTY ON!!

    When people make fun of "you can see Russia from Alaska" they are taking it very much IN context, the context that you claimed SP. That's what makes it funny. YOU claimed it gave you experience in the international scene. If you had just said it as a fact, it wouldn't be funny.

    If you don't get why it is funny, then I'm laughing again. If you had been elected... I'd be crying of course.

  20. Kurt

    Remember when Al Gore lost. And he went away for a while? I'm thinking Gov. Palin should follow that model. She just seems to be dying to have someone hear about her sour grapes. On top of that, it seems she's building an "anti-media" platform for future campaigns.
