Sarah Palin Explains Why She Scares People On 'Conan' (VIDEO)

For the third year in a row, Sarah Palin was chosen by Barbara Walters as one of the 10 most fascinating people of the year. Monday night on "Conan," Conan O'Brien addressed this achievement and produced a portion of her interview with Walters that you may not have seen.

It turns out, Palin actually understands why many Americans fear her running for president in 2012. Hear her list all the reasons she frightens liberals and more in the ridiculous clip below. And we don't know about you, but "ginned up" is destined to be our new favorite phrase.

I hope she ends up a footnote instead of all of the rest of us.

A footnote of warning and irresponsibility in a mass shooting American tragedy that she serves as the poster child for.

Sick boitch.

Maybe because she's a kooky lady, that *thinks* she has her finger on the pulse of America.

She needs to go shoot a Caribou or something.

Most people are careful around insane megalomaniacs with extremist religious pretensions.

Are you referring to Palin or O'Brien?

Indeed; the list of sociopathic personality types fitting Palin is no doubt long...

Generally, her real answers are funnier and scarier.

Sarah doesn't scare me. She's harmless as is. It's the peo;le who vote for her that scare me. YEOW!

I think they confused fear with pity... As Mr. T would say "I pity the fool!"

It's people that are caught up with her charm and don't care what her views are on the issues, or what she knows or doesn't know about a country (Or what a country is! ), and they don't even care about her flubs and fluffs; but they would do anything to support her, including vote for her. Fickle and dense Americans, now THOSE are the ones that scare me!

She isn't running for President...for sure. Her "brand" is at a low. She has done absolutely nothing in World Politics, why not do some meeting with various world leaders discussing our relationships with the rest of the world and our place in it. Do something with real meaning.

In case you didn't know, today would have been the 49th birthday of arguably the greatest comic talent the world has ever seen - the one and only... Bill Hicks.

Can you imagine the field day he'd be having with the likes of Palin and her nutty GOP kin?

All I want for Christmas is for her god to rapture her and make her go away.

Stop the enabling of this woman! She is an attention addict. Her ego is ridiculous. Stop the enabling!

See the ( true life story ) A FACE IN THE CROWD
starring Andy Griffith ( Academy Award NOMINATION, I think)

Great movie and totally relates to her.

I'd have to agree. I remember the movie well.
