Editor's Note: Monday’s American Morning audience was dumbfounded by any positive response to Sarah Palin's address at the Tea Party convention.
- Dan: Why does ANYONE take Sarah Palin seriously? A ten year old could see that she's an uninformed self-promoter who's all about making some real money. Yet the media constantly pretends that she could actually be a serious contender for president of the US. Why?
- Jerry: I'm glad to see that Palin had room to spare on her hand after she got through writing all she knew on it.
- Allen: I can't believe that people are motivated by absolutely nada. What comes out of her mouth?? Poking and prodding others, and without any direction given as to how she would do anything. Not even a glimpse of anything that would persuade the present administration to act on it. She blames Obama for the 'fruit of Kaboom' bomber on Christmas day. She speaks like she is in a bar talking crapola. She's worse than a pinhead... an airhead with a lot of frustrated people left over from the 2008 election. It sure would be nice to see her backing the administration for the 'sake of the people', instead of scoring points to make her look 'viable.' I really don't think the tea party people will be fooled by the twit. A lot of them will get caught up with the emotions, but reality will sink in and those high minded individuals will realize her capabilities, and her actions will be seen as it is: a scratched record, with incoherent ideas. PS: she will run for president, as she is pulling this off to keep her status as a potential candidate, and not allowing the after glow of Scott Brown to suck up her position.
How do you think Sarah Palin’s speech was received at the Tea Party convention? Is she ready to be president in 2012?

My point of view on politics is conservitive inline with Fox News and I don't need Fox News Telling me what to think and how to vote. That's why I choose to watch CNN because I'm not alway right. I do like to have my view point challenged I already know what Fox News is going to Say.
Why do you the viewer watch Fox News. Is it that their reporters are comming from the same point of view conservitive. May be their reporters are more ingaged one on one or what? I use to watch Fox News to get the other side of the News but that just lead me not to trust News.
Interesting that women have more venom for her than men do.......perhaps theyncan't stand success by another female....perhaps women spend too much time being catty....
Palin shocks the liberal left everytime she says anything......interesting.....she's too"dumb" they say....but they can't get her off their mind........
She got more leadership quality than the current WH, and she calls it as most of America sees it.....basic American values that made this country great .....which is something nanny-staters don't get.
If you look at experience and qualifications then she was head and shoulders ahead of Obama before the elections. He is perhaps the most inexperienced and lest qualified person ever to be elected.
lol, Jerry, you are right on. Great comment
Why do you even bother asking the question?
There is a group on facebook you need to report on. The group is "NO MORE AID FOR HAITI UNTIL THE 10 AMERICANS ARE RELEASED"
Your understanding of Government, Industry, Finance, Academic, Military, Media, Religion(spirituality+ETHICS) and the Peoples is too narrow minded as we are about to put it all under one global administration with each nation sitting around that table. Getting into the goings on within any particular nation trival yet the manipulations and corruptions going on are indeed being monitored.
Your annointed one uses a teleprompter. He doesn't even have the capability or intelligence to make a speech on his own. He has to have some flunkie write it. Read, corpsman!!!
obama's lifeguard must be working overtime. Everytime obama tries to walk on water, guess what, time to go to work.
I don't know if she is the best to lead the country but I do know that my cat could do better than obama. Palin is definitely learning at a much faster rate than obama.
Give the liberals and the liberal press enough time and they will show you who they fear. If there is nothing to Palin then why do you spend so much time tearing her down.
Sarah Palin needs her mouth wired shut. She is not responsible enough to comment on our president.
Far from ridiculous, Sarah Palin's potential run for President is a great idea. After all, we elected a peanut farmer from Georgia, a sex addicted jazz player from Arkansas, and a popular ex-movie star. ,
About her three-word notes written on her hand, sounds honest to me. Better than swiveling her head reading every word from a teleprompter. As for the claim she's inexperienced and politically naive, President Obama has cornered that market.
The truth is that for all its' taunted tolerance, America isn't ready for a woman president. The brutal treatment and blame-game inflicted upon Former Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco is a perfect example of America's phony claims of iberation and non-discrimination. The governnor before Blanco was a millionaire too elite to live in the lowly Governor's Mansion, and had a phobia against flying, so he never left the state to woo business or industry. Edward Edwards, the long-reigning gambler and crook, was indicited 17 times before being convicted of selling casino licenses and sent to federal prison for 10 years. Yet many groan about his cruel fate.
In contrast, Pro-Active Governor Blanco's heels were on fire traveling throughout the state for town meetings, courting industry, working tirelessly for good government.public . She is a Democrat. I am a Republican so no partisanship in my comments.
Women know how to clean out closets and organize, to live on a budget, and suppress their egos for the common good of their families. What wrong with Palin's talent for cleaning a moose?
Better than Nancy "Plastic" Pelosi's taxpaye funding to study the rats of San Francisco. She could study rats free right there in in Washington among her peers.
Go Palin. It's time for common sense, not political madness.
I agree with with Dan, Jerry and Alan. But don't forget what else she said about "It's revolution time". Can you see one of us saying that, it would be called treason, and we would be arrested. Plus again, as I have said before, were was the Tea Party when President Bush lied to all of us for 8 years??? And does not anyone remember that when Bush came into office we were in the black as a country. I wish they would just put a plug in her mouth. I wish people would do their own research before listening to people like her. There are so many web sites one can go to to find the answers and the truth.
