Sarah Palin may run in 2012? That's gonna be lot of crib notes.
Sarah Palin doesn't think President Barack Obama will be re-elected if he keeps going the way he's going. She told Fox News' Chris Wallace that she isn't personally closing the door on her own 2012 presidential run.
In the meantime, she's making a lot of money to bash Obama, not like when she was running for VP and doing it for nothing. She reportedly received $100 grand for speaking at the Tea Party Convention on Saturday, Feb 6.
"This is the new normal," she tells Wallace. But she claims
she's not personally profiting and that the money is going back to 'the
cause.'
"I'm turning right around and
being able to contribute to the cause," she says. "I don't know if it
goes to the pac (that would be her pac) or to some nonprofit. Bottom line, I'm not personally benefiting from this."
Seems
like a lot of money to pay a woman who has to use crib notes scrawled
on her hand to give a speech and answer questions. Read more about
Sarah's embarrassing reliance on crib notes during her Saturday speech and interview.

This article is utterly ridiculous. No? Anyone who has ever done public speaking knows that the use of an outline or notes is a tool that a speaker may use to convey talking points. Why not write a few notes on the hand? President Obama uses a teleprompter to speak. Why not report on his incessant use of this instrument while he speaks. Hey America! I sense a bias here in this reporting. What a spin you choose!
Chris Matthews is on MSNBC dummy. Chris Wallace is on Fox.
Those were not crib notes, they were simple reminder notes of items she wanted to be certain to cover in her speech. It's sort of like writing a note reminding yourself to pick up bread and milk on the way home from work.
Critics of her palm notes come across as looking ridiculous, and frankly, as rather stupid.
Crib notes? Outline notes? Seriously? Defending Palins blatent inability to answer "pre screened" questions by using notes on HER HAND, is almost as bad a choice as she made in using the telepalm. This woman is all about one thing, this woman. She is a brand and you are buying into it.
And speaking of things just as relevant to anything at all as the fact that there were words on Palin's palm, did anyone notice what color shoes she was wearing?
The problem is that she criticized obama for using a teleprompter. It's called hypocrisy, and the conservatives are now known for it.
I have never seen someone so self-promoting and opportunistic as Sarah Palin. & she seems kinda crazy (and not in a good way).
Wow...not only is this no longer an entertainment site. They've taken to deleting posts that disagree with the slant of the article.
I'm not a Palin fan but putting a couple of key words on a hand isn't remotely the same as putting a whole speech on a telemprompter.
