Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has been described as a rising star in the GOP; meanwhile news stories are starting to leak out from John McCain's close advisers (speaking anonymously) with damning details about her behavior during the campaign, including laying blame at her feet for the $150,000 spending spree, and her inept performance in the Katie Couric interview. She reportedly was rarely speaking with John McCain by the campaign's end.

What's next for Sarah Palin? What does her future hold? Post your thoughts below.

Ha! That's pretty much all there is to say. The Republican Party is falling apart. If they want to have a chance during the next election, they better shape up now.

With Sarah Palin the US politics have become the laughing stock of the planet.

My best wishes to a great lady. I know she will be successful in whatever she chooses to do. I had no reservations about the possibility of her being President. She is a second Harry Truman, "Give them Hell, Harry."

We have all these educated, experienced members of Congress, and they have made a mess out of our country. President Truman was not a college graduate, need I say more. Compare Truman and Sarah to Joe Biden with his stupid slipups.

Obama will do ok, but not by his resources. All those big muckety muckety politicians who backed him will make sure of that. They do not want him to fall on his face. He will be protected just as he was protected by the press and others during the primary and the election.
