You can certainly do better, Tasco. First you decline to comment on the OP, then offer ancient Dan Rather history, and some clown who also likes to throw stones, hiding under a shield of total anonymity, (with flawed facts). Another of your semi-credible sources, not even from Live Leak?

Asshole Obama isn't going to get anything done either! He is too damn busy trying to please everybody, and in the mean time digging us deeper in the whole......THAT WAS ALREADY THERE AND WAY TOO DEEP ALREADY!

"When the former Republican vice presidential candidate and former Alaska governor wrote her autobiography, the AP found a copy before its release date and assigned 11 people to fact check all 432 pages."

"Biden's book "Promises to Keep" became an instant best-seller when he was chosen to be Obama's running mate, but was not fact-checked by the AP"

she is an odd bird, and despite being the most unpopular choice as a running mate in recent memory, the right wing must have had something up their sleeve, as far as knowing they were going to lose the election, but in also knowing that something about her might be particularly appealing to the conservatives' general appeal, next go round.

Catfish, truer words were never written!

Palin appeals to a small group of Small minded Right wing Racist Spooks, certainly not mainstream Americans. And a small group of Southern State racist Hicks. See any mainstream Republicans endoring her as a 2012 Candidate? No and you won't. They Republican Powers to be learned their lesson with Palin and her Wasilla Hillbilly Tribe in 2008 and they don't want any repeat of that next time around. She didn't help the cause for sure,,,Her book has been reduced to a litany of Fibs

Palin does not appeal to anyone outside of a small segment of her own party. As poor of a choice that McCain was on his own, poll after poll illustrated that Palin increasingly and deservedly became a weight around McCain's neck as the campaign went on. She is a celebrity (hell, they got a pornstar to portray her in adult flicks) so she does draw some crowds, but she has not demonstrated that she has the slightest clue whatsoever about politics. Over and over she has shown that she is incapable of accepting responsibility for anything that she says, flip-flopping like a dying fish. Instead, she places all of the blame on those around her.

I giggled when the cons on pbh begged other members to stop speaking the truth about poor Palin (I thought she was a pit bull - turns out she is a pathetic chihuahua), claiming that she was stepping down from office to escape the unfair criticism that she attracted while in the limelight in order to live in peace hidden in the Alaskan wilderness. Yeah right. She is a media whore, starved for fame in fortune. In this country which embraces reality show freaks as if they were noteworthy stars, it is no wonder that she feels deserving of adulation nor is it surprising that her presence on a television screen has brainwashed some into believing that she has talent. Don't get me wrong, I never want her to leave. If she remains in politics. Awesome! If she gets her own show - while I wouldn't bother watching it - great! It would provide excellent material for Stewart and the like.

Her book sales are a joke. Newsmax magazine immediately offered it for $8.95 with four free issues of its magazine. Newsmax normally lists at $39.95 for 12 issues or $3.33 an issue. Immediately after making the offer, Newsmax made a second offer: get Palin's book and four free issues for $4.95. What is being offered for free?

"So you might wonder why Wal-Mart recently decided to start its own price war, taking on Amazon in the online book market. Wal-Mart began by marking down the prices of ten best-sellers—including the new Stephen King and the upcoming Sarah Palin—to ten bucks. When Amazon, predictably, matched that price, Wal-Mart went to nine dollars, and, when Amazon matched again, Wal-Mart went to $8.99, at which point Amazon rested. (Target, too, jumped in, leading Wal-Mart to drop to $8.98.) Since wholesale book prices are traditionally around fifty per cent off the cover price, and these books are now marked down sixty per cent or more, Amazon and Wal-Mart are surely losing money every time they sell one of the discounted titles. The more they sell, the less they make. That doesn’t sound like good business."
