Nobody comments on that leather and zippered outfit she was wearing... oh the horror!!! She's changing into a hells angel right in front of everybody. Next she'll be filmed shooting with all the glee of eric smith.

Is it just me or is she losing her hotness a little more each day?

She was never hot to begin with. She's the best looking female politician in recent American history, but there are politicians around the world who look better than her. Also, plenty of 40 something women who actually look hot

In one of these clips, Palin attacks tax credits while the crowd boos. A google search confirms she supported tax credits before and after the rally.

At rally

Palin: You have to really listen to our opponenent's words...he says that he's for a tax credit, which is when government takes more of your money and gives it away according to a politician's priorities. (crowd boos).That's as opposed to John McCain...

Pre-rally

Q: Governor, are you interested in defending Sen. McCain’s health care plan?

PALIN: I am. He’s proposing a $5,000 tax credit for families so that they can get out there and they can purchase their own health care coverage. That’s budget neutral

As governor, Palin offered a tax credit for film production in the state, offering about $20 million per year in breaks.

Hey, there is 'Crash' McCain and his invention Sarah 'Bible Spice' Palin.

There are only 2 McCain-Palin campaign moments that anyone needs to remember. Actually 3.

Once is Palin bouncing and waving and shaking her groove thing up on the stage to chirp "Hey girls! Here's your 2nd chance to break that glass ceiling!!". (The sound of silence from women all over America - real America - was positively deafening.)

The first time Palin stood up at an event and finally got someone to scream "Kill him!" while she beamed and fancy pageant winked. (And America - real America - got queasy.)

McCain conceding. (Thank you - so much - real America).

There's nothing more to remember.

He is a bitter old man ,who knows his sun has set,he will say or do anything,the sad part is once Sadly Palin and McCain was admired and a remarkable American,now he is everything he hated, Palin can not tell the truth and McCain can not remember it,it was 100 lies ago

[Barbie and Ken forever]

06:41 PM on 04/01/2010

Palin was never admired as a remarkable American. She's a vile creature

HA!! Huffington Post writes: WATCH memorable McCain/Palin moments. Did they mean to say "forgettable?"

[JoyIsGwenNYC]

11:00 PM on 03/27/2010

I was thinking the same thing... These were the most boring Palin moments. And by the way. I'm really REALLY getting sick of her now. She just comes off as a mean spirited, cocky, gaudy, Republican (sorry, we don't use that word anymore), Tea Party talking point machine. The fact that the people that love her love her so much irritates the hell out of me, as she stands for nothing BUT making a quick buck. I bet the reason Cindy McCain is giving her nothing but dirty looks is because each of the recent Palin appearances have cost her $100,000 of her pocket money.

Sarah wailin' Palin is America's secret weapon for obtaining actionable intelligence. Just lock her up in a room with any prisoner suspected of withholding information and ask her to practice her speech for the next rally. The detainees will find her ranting voice extremely irritating. Everytime her pitch squaks up to the stratrosphere and beyond,the prisoners will beg for mercy. The guards will then offer to trade a mute button for information and I'm telling ya, the detainees will put singing canaries outta business!

"John McCain spent 5 years in a prison camp while fighting to defend the Constitution" -- realy, is that what we doing in Vietnam - defending the Constitution??? Really...

Whyy do you give her press? Why do you compromise principles you claim to believe?

Is this a freak show? The media will " cover" anything regardless of its value if they believe people will tune in to view the clowns in the center ring. The Grifter Woman and the Erratic One are a perfect fit for the crazies- of which there are approx. 11 million in the US.

Phu=c=king pathetic ma=roons.

1 trillion dollars in your off-budget Iraqi lie.

Christ, Eisenhower would be aghast at how little you people know. He wins WWII fr you people to treat this country like shiite.
