#1 Sarah Palin and Palm-Gate
Feb-09-2010

Sarah Palin mocked President Barack Obama as 'a charismatic guy with a Teleprompter' during a speech only to be photographed with crib notes written on the palm of her hand. A close examination of the former vice-presidential candidate speaking at the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville at the weekend revealed she had the words "Energy", "Tax," and "Lift Americans Spirits" scrawled in ink on the inside of her left hand.

"Budget cuts" was written and then crossed out.
She surreptitiously glanced at the words during a question and answer session afterwards when she was asked what should be the top three things a Republican majority in Congress would focus on.

Mrs Palin later told Fox News she would run for president in 2012 "if I believed that that is the right thing to do for our country and for the Palin family", adding it would be "absurd" to rule out such a move.

Mrs Palin ran with Senator John McCain in the 2008 race which they lost to Barack Obama.
