Limbaugh seems to think so.

Rush Limbaugh has said of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's new book, "Going Rogue," that it is "truly one of the most substantive policy books I've read."

Who is it that's always talking about NObama, 0bama, bammers, and hussein obama.

That just proves how literally frightened out of your dirtied drawers you guys are of Obama.

The only mobs I see are those relentlessly going after her.

By the way, I didn't think Obama was ready for prime time either. That was a pretty good call.....
Is Palin being forced into the spotlight? Are people supposed to ignore her as she willingly puts herself in public view?

The media has it out for her? Please. Without the media, she'd be unemployed.

If you think she is irrelevent then yes ignore her. There are plenty of people in the spot light who we all ignore every day. But if you choose to pay attention to her then take her on based on policy and politics not personal. It is really making the left look petty, sexist and scared.

With the cratering of his poll numbers and the Dem poll numbers I think the right is energized, not at all scared.

I find her entertaining, in a train-wreck kind of way. Why would I ignore good comedy? That's not my point anyway. Palin is putting herself in the spotlight. You can't complain about publicity when your objective is publicity.

I don't care about the left. I'm one of the 48% of independents who see Palin negatively.

And with Palin's dismal poll numbers, I don't think the left is scared, either. And again, you skirted the point.

As a right winger, I've never tried to offer up an excuse for her. Goodness, when you can't even tell someone what newspapers or publications you read you're not ready for prime time (ie Katie Couric interview).

I wouldn't vote for Palin but I could understand if she didn't really read any news publications. Many of them are failing now and are in dire need of finding something to make money on which usually clouds judgment.
