There's all kinds of speculation, none of it really makes a difference, but this was some odd timing on the part of Sarah Palin. This was totally out of left field. You'd think if this was for the purposes of a 2012 run there would be more fanfare and it wouldn't be done on the Friday before a national holiday, with the media fixated on dead celebrities to boot. If that was the reason then it would call for a little more fanfare, no?

At least she 'resigned' before being booted or it got too ugly, like some of the rest...but guaranteed with her...there is going to be 'the rest of the story." But ya betcha, she had no knowledge of what she did or didn't do...umm hmmmm ahhh right...

It's a lot like waiting for the season premier of a televion show that ended with a cliff hanger the season before.

Anderson Cooper's mother is Gloria Vanderbilt, but that probably didn't have anything to do with him getting his own show on CNN....

OK - Found it.

III QUALIFICATIONS AND CANDIDACY

The qualifications for the vice presidency are the same as those for the presidency. The vice president must be a native-born American of at least 35 years of age who has resided in the United States for at least 14 years.

What are you talking about? Last October, she was found guilty of abusing her power as Governor. A bipartisan investigation panel found Palin to be "in violation of a state ethics law prohibiting public officials from using their office for personal gain." Troopergate ring any bells?

Swarzenegger is not a natural born citizen and does not qualify (of course that did not stop hussein obama). He is also a RINO and the Republicans need to clean them out or more people leave the party, it's why I did.

you guys can at least spell the mans name right if you think so highly of him.

I think that a Schwarzenegger/Palin sequel to the movie Twins would be much more likely.

You do realize that referring to President Obama as "Hussein Obama" is akin to you referring to recent past Presidents as "Jefferson Clinton" and "Walker Bush" ... right? You do realize that it's pretty idiotic and that it undermines any credibility you *may* have had, right?
