Sarah Palin

By Facebook Great event last night in Wisconsin! It was an honor to meet great Americans who are working so hard to remind us of life's sanctity and value. I commend this fine state for its efforts to make our nation a more welcoming place for all children. Let me set the record straight on the media's follo...

Speaking to a...

By Geoffrey Dunn Headlines recently declared "Sarah Palin's Speeches Were Ready but Never Seen -- Until Now." While Palin did not deliver her concession speech on election night, she did deliver most of it eight days later. In their new book Sarah From Alaska, Shushannah Walshe and Scott Conroy have provi...

By webmaster@nationalreview.com (Kathryn Jean Lopez) Via JMart:  It is so bogus that society is sending a message right now and has been for probably the last 40 years that a woman isn’t strong enough or smart enough to be able to pursue an education, a career and her rights and still let her baby live.

By The Kansas City Star Any judgment of Barack Obama’s presidency based on a handful of off-year races is overstating the case. Trying to decipher the real meaning is something like reading tea leaves, and just as reliable. Still, they are clues and warnings, at least, for the national parties. My reading of the le...

By Tallulah Morehead Okay, I think, after last week's episode, I've worked out which brunette bimbo is Laura, and which is Monica. Monica is the semi-pretty one. Laura is the conservative Christer biker pastor/lobbyist, who doesn't think it's a woman's role to be a pastor to men. For a woman who rides a Harley, sh...

By The Huffington Post News Editors When word broke that self-described moderate Republican Mark Kirk was angling for kind words from Sarah Palin for his U.S. Senate bid, the response from his rivals was savage and uniform. We can't let Mark Kirk and Sarah Palin take us back to the failed, Republican policies that got us into th...

By Noel Sheppard But the tactics of Limbaugh, Palin, Cheney & Fille are more cynical: They spin certainty, ignoring their side’s screw-ups, and they exploit patriotism, labeling all critics as traitors. In an interview on “Fox News Sunday With Chris Wallace,” Limbaugh accused the president of try...

By Scott Whitlock Former Democratic aide turned journalist George Stephanopoulos appeared on Wednesday’s Good Morning America to spin the loss of a Conservative Party congressional candidate in New York as a "big loss for Sarah Palin."

After the McCain Palin ticket went down in a ball of flames last year, there was a strange period of time when we didn't quite know what to do up here. Palin lost. She was bac...

By Foster Kamer On Sarah Palin's Vice President nomination: "Didn't mean anything to me. I didn't care. I didn't think it was that huge. I'm just gonna sit here and not say a word." On racism in the Palin household: "No, not (Sarah Palin)..no. She never said anything like that. She's not the racist type."

By The Huffington Post News Editors The race has pitted conservative and moderate wings of the Republican Party against each other in a battle of ideology. The special election in New York's rural north has received national attention as big-name Republicans including Sarah Palin, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and former T...

By DaveG That’s why it would no longer surprise me if Huckabee were to win the nomination in 2012. As Palin fades and Republicans end up with a Romney/Huckabee race, it’s Huckabee who begins to look like the Republican Obama. Like Obama, Huckabee is culturally similar to the base of his party and is we...

By Ed Pilkington The disclosure was made just days after Palin was chosen as John McCain's Republican vice-presidential running mate in the presidential election.

By Jill Lawrence The juiciest parts of advance excerpts from the new book by David Plouffe, President Obama's 2008 campaign manager, concern the vice presidential selection process in both parties.

By The Huffington Post News Editors Palin epitomizes the things that America's political middle doesn't like about the GOP," said Phil Singer, a Democratic political consultant who worked at the DSCC and on the Hillary Clinton presidential campaign. "It's a no-brainer to force Republican candidates to embrace someone...

By Mark Axelrod No, what I find extraordinary is that even if Palin is correct and all we need to do is "Drill, baby, drill" just how long will it take and how much will it cost before that energy from off-shore drilling manifests itself at the proverbial gas pump? For Palin and her fossil foolish friends one...

By Anthony Dalke McCain (no relation to the Arizona senator) didn’t respond to an email from POLITICO, but brushed off to the Washington Independent’s any attempt to link Vincent to his own controversial past remarks on race. …She’s also been – unlike Palin – an outspoken foe of homosexuality.

By Adam Brickley A lot has been said lately about the idea that Sarah Palin is positioning herself as a the libertarian in the 2012 field – and I have been laughing…a lot. This is exactly I have been saying for months, and exactly how I have seen a potential Palin run shaping up for years (VP  run or no [...] A lot ha...

By Shannyn Moore The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama's "death panel" so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their "level of productivity in society," whether they are worthy of health care. Such a...

By The Huffington Post News Editors Unknown on the national stage until McCain tapped her as his running mate, Palin infused excitement into the Republican's presidential bid. But she also became the butt of talk-show jokes and Democratic criticism, targeted at news that the Republican Party had spent $150,000 or more on...

By Shannyn Moore Sarah Palin finds herself in a similar predicament. Her Alaska Fund Trust is the perfect golden banana. It happens to be inside the legal jar created by Thomas Daniel's ethics investigation findings. You see, Mr. Daniel concluded Palin had used her official title of governor to raise money f...

By Andy Ostroy In a long, rambling statement, Palin said"... I thought about how much fun some governors have as lame ducks...And then I thought - that's what's wrong - many just accept that lame duck status, hit the road, draw the paycheck, and "milk it". I'm not putting Alaska through that - I promised efficien...

By Adam Graham 3) Sarah Palin:Actually came out of this poll with a slight 49-42% Negative rating and trailed President Obama 53-41%.

By Dennis DiClaudio Only a few days (or a quarter-day of Alaska time) after the Palin camp accused Bristol Palin's baby-daddy and his family of "engaging in flat-out lies" while on their "quest for fame, attention, and fortune," Levi Johnston is back on TV in a way that is completely unlike a "quest for fame, a...

By Warner Todd Huston Boy, sounds bad for Mrs. Palin, eh? That wonderful "expert" is saying so, right? I mean, he's GOT to know what he's talking about, doesn't he? Why, he's a "professor" and all. A smart, informed, unbiased, academic type of fella, don'tcha know? Baker photo: The Washington Center)

By Flap I have never given Governor Palin advice - she does not need it from me.  I don’t even have her phone number or her email address.  I don’t think I have ever had a conversation with her off camera and if I have, it was 45 seconds!  The goal in TV is to get tape and as much as you can so you run the camera e...

By Ali Frick Following the lead of the other 2012 GOP presidential contenders, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) announced today that she would reject nearly half the $930 million Alaska was set to receive from the economic stimulus package. Like Gov. Mark Sanford (R-SC), Palin is set to further cripple the stat...

By Dennis DiClaudio Hey, remember Mitt Romney? No? Okay, remember the blank wall that was standing next to John McCain and Rudy Giuliani through most of the Republican primary debates a year ago?

By Justin McCarthy WHOOPI GOLDBERG: "The Washington Post" asks if the Obama legacy is being written before he even takes the oath of office. Now "Newsweek’s" cover pairs him with Lincoln.

By Brent Baker CBS News: KATIE COURIC: Well, everyone was waiting to see how the political newcomer would do tonight and perhaps the headline is Governor Sarah Palin did not embarrass herself or her running mate as some Republicans might have feared and some Democrats might have hoped.

Is Sarah Palin Qualified to be one heart beat away from the Oval Office? I have included both installments of the Palin interview with Katie Couric in this post along with the Saturday Night Live spoof and some additional commentary. You have to see this to believe it. But first I offer a bit of my own commentary. My first response to John McCain's choice of Sarah Palin was that he was making a grab for Hillary Clinton supporters. I soon revised my thinking and began to see that his choice of Governor Palin was a desperate attempt to keep the Republican Convention from blowing up and to shore up the radically right pro-life conservative base that he feels he needs to win the prize of POTUS. No woman who supported Hillary Clinton and all that Senator Cl...   [read the full post]

By Matthew Balan ALEX CASTELLANOS, REPUBLICAN STRATEGIST: The first thing you do is burnish their foreign policy credentials. You buy them a Rand McNally. They meet with generals. You get a lot of flags on the stage and you give a big speech on foreign policy, to display you have some command of the world.

By Glenn Greenwald There is no doubt that the Legislature has the right to investigate and that these Subpoenaas are lawfully issued.
