The numbers are in for Sarah Palin's first Real American Stories special on Fox News, and they aren't good. Palin's special was expected to pull in big numbers for Fox News, but instead did worse that the regular occupant of the 10 PM slot, On The Record with Greta Van Susteren. The viewers that did tune in didn't stay long as the show lost viewers in every quarter hour. Sarah Palin delivered yet another bomb.

Its not that I'm happy that she fell flat on her face and that Fox "News" wasted its money, but I kinda had to smile at the fact.

I don't want to HEAR how she bombed; I want to SEE how she bombed, but neither Fox nor You Tube have posted the show. Where can I find it?

    The columnist concludes that Palin can't draw "average numbers", yet states earlier that her numbers and VanSustren's are close. Greta has had years to build those numbers. Maybe we should wait a month or so to see a tend emerge. Don't get me wrong, Palin is no Walter Cronkite. She is a valuable commodity, and it appears that she may have been placed in a bad vehicle for her with questionable content. She does not, after all; write, produce, stage or direct the show.

      She is a valuable commodity

      Sarah's dissaproval ratings are pretty high. She is widely despised by real Americans because she is such a gigantic phony.

      And she's a talentless loon who has maybe 3-4 years tops before her looks start to go, and once her looks start to go and people have to actually deal with her brainless prattle they'll realize she's a complete zero as a political asset.

      She knows this and is just making hay while the sun shines, I think.

      Palin remains quite popular. For someone of little or no consequence, she seems to draw an inordinate amount of attention from her political opposition. That allotment of valuable resources, indicates that they consider her to be worth the effort.
