    now that the election is over, whither sarah palin? will she do the right thing by her family and step out of the media spotlight so that she can focus on keeping her pot-head/slut daughter out of further trouble (not to mention spend time raising her autistic kid....well, it's allegedly her kid), or will she do as i suspect and 'write' a book and then eventually blather RNC talking points on foxnoise?

    To be honest, I'm more interested how Joe the Plumber and his recently hired PR agents are going to try and make a buck now.

    I bet she'll try to spreak her word, get more exposure, and promote her political career by writing a book. It's usually the first step if someone is ambitious in politics.

    That said, I do not think she has a high chance of being a GOP leader, or GOP force.

    Many top Repubs criticized her on record by name and many think she brought the ticket down.

    Uninformed (Kouric & Gibson interview) and divisive from the campaign strategy of "he's palling around with terrorists, domestic terrorist, you betcha, ya know, and I work with my hands."

    Did she ever work with her hands?

    Stick a fork in her. She's done. If the Republicans are ever to recover from the thumping they took, a Sarah Palin will never get close to being even allowed in the Republican Primary.

    NEWSWEEK has also learned that Palin's shopping spree at high-end department stores was more extensive than previously reported. While publicly supporting Palin, McCain's top advisers privately fumed at what they regarded as her outrageous profligacy. One senior aide said that Nicolle Wallace had told Palin to buy three suits for the convention and hire a stylist. But instead, the vice presidential nominee began buying for herself and her family--clothes and accessories from top stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue and Neiman Marcus. According to two knowledgeable sources, a vast majority of the clothes were bought by a wealthy donor, who was shocked when he got the bill. Palin also used low-level staffers to buy some of the clothes on their credit cards. The McCain campaign found out last week when the aides sought reimbursement. One aide estimated that she spent "tens of thousands" more than the reported $150,000, and that $20,000 to $40,000 went to buy clothes for her husband. Some articles of clothing have apparently been lost. An angry aide characterized the shopping spree as "Wasilla hillbillies looting Neiman Marcus from coast to coast," and said the truth will eventually come out when the Republican Party audits its books.

    didn't know she'd done that, but it is a fact that she enjoys the 'sport' of shooting wolves from a helicopter.

    Here is another, and from Bill O'reilly.

    Palin apparently had temper trantrums, over-shopped for clothes, etc.

    Some back-biting right now and former staffer for the McCain campaign are speaking out.

    As O'reilly says, there should a book coming out.

    Yeah, I saw that this morning on Fox. Looks like thats where a large portion of the blame will be placed.

    Still, more than a bit annoying that, after weeks of Fox (and O'Reilly) trumpeting her as the best thing since sliced bread, they are going to pillory her for being as dumb as a stump.

    Most right thinking people knew that from the very begining. Still, I suppose the larger issue here is that McCain took a huge risk on her that blew up in his face. Risky gambling -not really what you want from a president. America may have escaped a tradgedy.

    hardly surprising that fox (aka RNC mouth piece) needs someone to throw under the bus after such a humiliating defeat at the polls. and i have little doubt, that after they're done with her, they'll move onto the old man.

    The Huffington Post says it best, Palin was a Pawn:-

    Still, so did an even more alarming realization: Sarah Palin wasn't a power broker; she was a pawn. Her selection as VP, a move brokered by campaign manager Steve "The Bullet" Schmidt and allowed through by McCain's flimsy hold on his own campaign, was far worse than a mere cynical "political stunt." It was an act of cultural abuse; an exploitation of Palin's own novice aspirations, and an insult not only to the women whose votes the McCain campaign had hoped to sway, but to the millions of "real" Americans to whom the politically and socially naive Palin was expected to be an object of identification.

    The later abject tokenism of Joe the Plumber took this gross manipulation of the working-class to new heights, but the real Freedom Fry fake-out starts with Palin. The GOP leadership plucks from obscurity an ambitious but woefully uninformed, inexperienced small-town mayor and small-state governor, whose narrow-minded, backward views are likely less deliberately sinister than just sadly symptomatic of her insulated upbringing, and splashes her out onto the battlefield of presidential politics with little more than an overpriced Neiman-Marcus wardrobe and a gaggle of shopworn, Salvation Army talking-points. Naturally, she got shot down. (Even if she did finally learn to pronounce "Ahmadinejad.")

    Full article- James Rotondi: The Tears Were Real; Palin Was A Pawn

    A cynical neo-con populist manoeuvre, that rightfully backfired.

    She thought Africa was a country and South Africa was just a region. Did not know who was in Nafta. What an education system you have over there guy's if this woman can get a degree

    All these thick Septics who voted for her because "She is just like me" - just like you all right - effing stupid.

    She wants to run in 2012 if she can get backing and was asking reporters about the primaries etc - this should be fun and provide more comedic material.

    O'Reilly said she can be tutored - bwhaaaaaa
