Gingrich Palin AP GOP presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich is sinking in the polls but nevertheless said he would consider former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as a potential vice presidential running mate . I am a great admirer of hers and she was a remarkable reform governor of Alaska , shes somebody who I think brings a great deal to the possibility of helping in government and that would be one of the possibilities, the former House Speaker said in response to a question about Palin during a tele-town hall Wednesday. He didnt stop there Gingrich also suggested the 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate could be a good pick for some very important cabinet positions. There are also some very important cabinet positions that she could fill very, very well, he said. I cant imagine anybody who would do a better job of driving us to an energy solution than Gov. Palin, for example. Tell her that she would certainly be on the list of one of the people we would consider. Palin has held off on end

Republican presidential candidate, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich (Credit: Charlie Riedel) Newt Gingrich, plunging in the polls, dropped this bomb Wednesday: he would consider asking Sarah Palin to serve as his number two or in his Cabinet if he became president. "She is certainly one of the people you would look at," Gingrich said Wednesday, according to Right Wing Watch , when asked if he would consider tapping the 2008 vice presidential nominee for a second try. "I am a great admirer of hers and she was a remarkable reform governor of Alaska, she's somebody who I think brings a great deal to the possibility of helping in government and that would be one of the possibilities," Gingrich said at Ralph Reed's Faith and Freedom Coalition. And if he did not pick her for his running mate and he defeated President Obama in the November general election, he would consider putting her in the Cabinet, the site reports. "There are also some very important Ca

In the final weeks before the Iowa caucuses, the presidential candidates who make up the 2012 GOP field won't be able to look to Sarah Palin, who ran for vice president in 2008, for a boost in the state. In a Fox News appearance Sunday , Palin said that she would not endorse anyone "with the field as it stands." "My endorsement is going to be with sincerity and enthusiasm and I am just not there yet . . . with the field as it stands," Palin said. "And there's no need to endorse until that enthusiasm is within me, in my gut." "As soon as I feel that that person who understands the fiscal crisis especially that America faces and knows what to do about it then I will feel that enthusiasm and I will endorse, but I'm not ready yet," she added. Palin downplayed the influence her endorsement would have on the race, but despite the drop in attention she has received in the media since announcing that she wouldn't run herself, any of the c

Sarah Palin Iowa AP An independent group is running radio advertisements in Iowa urging voters to go rogue and cast their votes for Sarah Palin at the states caucuses, despite the former Alaska governors insistence that she is not running for president. The group, calling itself Sarah Palins Iowa Earthquake, released the 30-second spot less than a week out from the Iowa caucuses , the first official nominating event in the 2012 campaign. The ad says it is not authorized by Palin or any other candidate. Are you unhappy with the current GOP field? Let me tell you something, you are not alone, the ad says. Join thousands of Iowans as we vote rogue. Its the caucus for Sarah Palin on January 3. Let Iowa and the entire country know we want real leadership and real reform in D.C. So come on Iowa, vote rogue on January 3! A similar group calling itself Sarah Palins Earthquake Movement is planning to run TV ads in Iowa markets through Jan. 1, according to its Facebook page .

Fans of conservative darling Sarah Palin have urged Iowa voters to go 'rogue' in caucuses next week by voting for the former Alaska governor, even though she has ruled out a 2012 White House bid. The Wednesday radio ad comes as the Republican field remains unsettled - six days before the party's first nominating event on Tuesday to pick a candidate to challenge President Barack Obama in November's US election. 'Are you unhappy with the current GOP field?' begins the 30-second ad by independent group Sarah Palin's Earthquake. 'Let me tell you something, you are not alone. Join thousands of Iowans as we vote rogue. It's the caucus for Sarah Palin on January 3. 'Let Iowa and the entire country know we want real leadership and real reform in Washington DC.' The group - which isn't the first to urge Palin to jump into the race - is organising a write-in campaign in Iowa, hoping that it will help Palin garner enough support to make a late entry

Yahoo! News asked readers and contributors to write New Year's resolutions for some U.S. politicians. Below are one reader's recommendations. For New Year's resolutions on the eve of 2012, several nationally-known politicians should resolve to get along with their fellows and do what's best for Americans. The economy is slowly getting better and Americans will hopefully get more work in 2012. Plus a presidential election is on the way as an incumbent will fight to keep his job in the White House. Here's what our national politicians should resolve to do next year to make everyone's lives better. Below is what I recommend they tell Americans: Sarah Palin "I resolve to send out the best darn holiday greeting card to all Americans in this exceptional country of ours. You see, the first family sent out a holiday card I didn't like because it didn't show the true American spirit of 'family, faith and freedom.' So instead of coming up with an

Even in Alaska, Sarah Palin's popularity has plummeted. In October the Wall Street Journal reported that the number of people in her home state holding a positive view of Palin had fallen to 29%. Ever since her 2009 resignation from the governorship, halfway through her first term, Palin's full-time job has been self-promotion. She's got books, personal appearances and reality TV shows to sell. So the polling collapse is no doubt nerve-racking. What to do? The Republican presidential-nomination circus has sucked all the publicity air out of the room, and Palin has virtually disappeared from public view. Well, kicking a dog in public will certainly get you back in the limelight. That's what happened this week when Palin complained that the illustration on the official White House Christmas card featured Bo, the Obama family's Portuguese water dog. It's doubtful whether dog-bashing will do much to make people like you more, but ink and blog posts are guaranteed.

Home > News > hollywood-news New York, Dec 23 : Julianne Moore looked almost like Sarah Palin when she donned a highly coiffed wig to transform herself into the former vice presidential nominee, for her latest film. Moore is virtually indistinguishable from the former governor of Alaska in the latest trailer for the HBO film, Game Change, based on John Heilemann and Mark Halperins book about the 2008 presidential election. The trailer begins with a discussion between John McCain, played by Ed Harris, and his senior campaign strategist Steve Schmidt, played by Woody Harrelson, the New York Post reported. We need to create a new dynamic in this campaign, We desperately need a game-changing pick, says Harrelson. And Harris responded, Find me a woman. While the two speak, far-off images of Moore as Palin are shown, sticking a foot out of a car, walking into a dinner and striding onto the stage of the 2008 Republican National Convention as the audience chants, Sarah! Sarah! Finally,

Sarah Palin impersonators have some new competition -- Julianne Moore. So pack your moose-hunting bags, Tina Fey. HBO has released the teaser trailer for "Game Change," a film starring Moore as the polarizing former Alaska governor when she debuted on the GOP ticket in 2008. It chronicles the campaign from the moment she stepped out as GOP nominee John McCain's pick for vice president leading up to their ultimate defeat in the presidential election. Watch the trailer below. Moore, who recently starred in "Crazy Stupid Love," is the newest addition to the ranks of Palin impersonators, joining the likes of comedian Kathy Griffin and "30 Rock" writer Fey, who uncannily parodied the "Sarah Palin's Alaska" star on "Saturday Night Live" soon after she was announced as McCain's running mate. Maybe Moore's stints alongside Fey on "30 Rock" helped her hone that spot-on impression? The Jay Roach-directed film based on J

COMMENTARY | The trailer for the upcoming HBO drama "Game Change," starring Julianne Moore as Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin , is out. The film is based on a book by the same name by Mark Halperin on the 2008 presidential campaign . The film, written and directed by the same people who did "Recount," another HBO film that purported to tell the story of the recount fiasco in the wake of the 2000 election, seems to focus on the Palin story as opposed to-say-the Barack Obama vs. Hillary Clinton brawl. This was a wise decision, though it was possibly informed by the idea that Palin would be a presidential candidate by the time the film is released this spring. Ed Harris appears at John McCain, the republican presidential candidate, and Woody Harrelson is Steven Schmidt, his campaign manager. But it is Moore who steals the show in the brief moment that she walks on stage as Palin. She seems to have the physicality and mannerism of Palin spot on. This is no Tina Fey par

So much for the holiday spirit. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is once again targeting the Obama administration, leveling a critical glare at the official White House holiday greeting card for not emphasizing Christmas. The card, seen above, was created for the Obama family by L.A. artist and designer Mark Matuszak. It features an image of Bo, the Obama family dog, in front of a fireplace in the White House library with a poinsettia and other decorations. The card, which makes no direct mention of Christmas and doesn't feature a Christmas tree, states: "From our family to yours, may your holidays shine with the light of the season." Palin told Fox News that she found it "odd" that the card emphasizes the dog instead of traditions like "family, faith and freedom." She also said that Americans are able to appreciate "American foundational values illustrated and displayed on Christmas cards and on a Christmas tree." In the past, White House ca

Sarah Palin says it's not too late for someone to jump into the Republican presidential race. Asked by Fox Business Network about the likelihood that she'd become a candidate, the former Alaska governor and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee said it's not too late for "folks" to jump in. Said Palin: "Who knows what will happen in the future." The full interview is scheduled for broadcast Monday night. Palin told Fox News Channel over the weekend that she felt no enthusiasm for anyone in the current Republican field and that she needed to feel something before she would offer an endorsement. Palin said in October that she wouldn't seek the nomination. She said she could be more effective helping others get elected.

COMMENTARY | Sarah Palin just can't stand being ignored. On Monday night, the former governor of Alaska told Eric Bolling on the Fox Business Network , "It's not too late for folks to jump in," hinting to her supporters that there is still a chance she might run for president. She also voiced her strong support of the Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow trying to take a ride on his 15 minutes of fame . Palin obviously doesn't know a lot about football, or the good-natured ribbing that fans of opposing teams like to give each other. She inferred that the skit about the Broncos and Tebow on "Saturday Night Live" this past weekend was all about atheists who are jealous of the quarterback's faith and in her nasally voice commented, "Jesus will rock your world if you just give it a try!" The bigger story is that the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee is still teasing her supporters with the hope that she will run, keeping them dangling o

Sarah Palin , the tea bag darling from the Great White North, says it's not too late for her presidential aspirations in 2012, despite dropping out of the race in October. "It's not too late for folks to jump in," Palin told Fox Business Network's "Follow the Money" program. "Who knows what will happen in the future." What's likely to happen in the future is that she'll be told no. Reuters says it's probably too late for this go-round. It's not too late for Christmas, though. In Spain, the Mama Grizzly has found new popularity as a Christmas ornament. Specifically, a caganer, which is a whimsical figurine that poops candy and other treats in the Nativity scene. The Sarah Palin pooper is available online for 15 euros. And don't worry, Teabaggers -- they got an Obama pooper, too.

Palin has enjoyed upstaging finding ways to upstage the Republican field through much of the year. The ex-governors Freedom bus tour of Americas historic sites arrived in New Hampshire just as GOP frontrunner ex-Gov. Mitt Romney was formally announcing his candidacy 10 miles away. She hit the Iowa State Fair in August, on the eve of a Republican Straw Poll that drew most of the GOP field. While Palin said in October she would not seek the Republican nomination, she is stepping back into the limelight just two weeks before the January 3 Iowa presidential caucuses. Over the weeken

The Denver Broncos might have had a bad day against the New England Patriots in Week 15, but at least their quarterback can rest easy knowing that he has a new fan in the form of failed Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Speaking with Shannon Bream on Fox News (via SportsGrid.com), Palin was asked about her thoughts about Tebow and the person that he is. "I am so pro-Tebow," Palin said on the show. "You know, he is unashamed of his savior, Jesus of Nazareth. He knows that Jesus is gonna rock your world when you give it all over to Him, and he's bold about it, and he knows that the Son of God should be honored and praised. Tebow does that. I respect it." Palin reminds me of that person in high school who lingers around the cool kids and tries to do everything in her power to fit in with them, but they don't even realize that she's there until she trips and falls over something. Which Political Figure Would You Want Supporting You? Which

New York , Dec 19 (ANI): Sarah Palin is ready to get back to work as a reality TV star with a new series of ' Alaska .' Producer Mark Burnett has revealed that he is in talks with TLC to bring "Sarah Palin's Alaska" back for a second season next fall. "The plan would be to shoot this in the summer of 2012," he told the New York Post . New episodes of the outdoorsy reality series - which shows the former vice-presidential candidate fishing, hunting and dog sledding with her family - would not air until after the November presidential election. "By the time we edit it, the election will be over. But I am sure the election would be mentioned [in the show]," Burnett stated. "It makes perfect sense, because that is what's going on. But it would be again Sarah in Alaska, living with Todd and the family and having adventures juxtaposed with doing her Fox News bits and discussing whatever is going on," he asserted. Burnett also rubbish
