Is Sarah Palin losing the plot? Consider the following snippet released yesterday from Bill O'Reilly's show when he asked Glenn Beck about how he found Sarah when he interviewed her. Beck replied that she was “guarded."

O'REILLY: Guarded?

BECK: Yes, she's the most — I don't know if you've had this feeling. I've never met anybody with shields up more than Sarah Palin. She is someone, I think, that gets — people have the wrong impression of her, I think, because she knows she's swimming in a tank full of sharks. When she walked on to my set, she was Googling. She was actually getting her hair and makeup done, and she was Googling and talking to people. And I said, "So what's up?"

And she said, "I'm just doing last-minute homework."

I said, "Why?"

And she said, "Because you're going to ask me about the 25 windows."

I said, "What 25 windows?"

She said, "The Statue of Liberty. It has 25 windows. They each represent different minerals."

O'REILLY: She was actually suspicious of you?

BECK: She's suspicious of everything.

O'REILLY: But you're one of her biggest fans.

BECK: I think — I mean, Bill, you've never been set up by people that you thought were friends.

O'REILLY: Yes, I have, but you, you're just so trustworthy. You are so — you wouldn't do that.

Beck was going to ask her about 25 windows on the Statue of  Liberty.

How insane is this?

Think about it this woman was almost one heartbeat away from the presidency and now she's talking about minerals and windows at the Statue of Liberty

Weird or what?

Hmmm, Sarah Palin was googling before the “Show”. The above conversation between Beck & O’Reilly is quite evident that she is among sharks, otherwise ,why disclose the private conversation… Before the “Show”? Perhaps, Beck & O’Reilly’s own self centered ratings, maybe? I hear that these two boys are in a tiff regarding each others ratings. I had believed both to be “trustworthy”. So much for that! Sarah Palin apparently had good advisors googling her. She had best stay rogue. The good ole boys are tightly knit. Christisall's post is apparently right.

Give her a break! She's smart, refreshing, and wonderful but does not stand a chance because she's a woman. . .

Roberts is grasping at straws. Haven't you got anything better to do with your (and our) time?

Sarah Palin is still around to drive the Dems/Libs Crazy. I think that is called smart politics.

The more I read The More I Think This is just another Liberal Rag,And the Comments I Read Make Me Wander About The Irish. With the COMMUNIST(democrats) and their RHINO usurpers always trying to trip her up she had better be Guarded.

I think it is so funny people who consider themselves Democrats hate this woman and do everything they can to slander her as person. Palin has a love for country, God and her family. She believes that people need to step up to the plate and politics as usual needs to stop. She believes that Government needs to be accountable to the people for spending and their actions. Why does this scare people? Shouldn't all of our government heads be held to this standard? I don't understand why you would attack her yet give someone like Pelosi who is so pro abortion, mocks those of faith a free pass. As far as her so called inane meanderings what are you listening to? I also would like to ask you have you ever listened to Obama without his teleprompter? He cannot put together more than three words without stuttering, he is the great, UH

She is a cartoon of herself. Concerned about the 25 windows in the Statue of Liberty and knows nothing of the founding fathers of the US? A fun parody, see Sarah Palin mercilessly lampooned in "Going Rouge: The Sarah Palin Rogue Coloring & Activity Book" http://www.goingrouge.net

I am glad she has faith in "God" as no clear thinking person could have faith in her inane meanderings.

I watched Sarah Palin's interviews with O'Reilly, Beck and Hannity. She was guarded with O'Reilly because he's not above pulling a "gotcha" on her. What he did was to try and get her to call Nancy Pelosi a "nut." She didn't fall for it. I think she was creeped out by Beck. He's too emotional and needy for her. The whole interview had that feeling of "it's not you, it's me" type of thing. Like she was having to let him down easy or something. And also she knew that he was trying to get her to commit to some third party movement. She was definitely more comfortable during the Hannity interview. Going forward I can almost guarantee that she'll appear on his show much more often than the other two. As for the headline of this article, she didn't "lose it" in any of the interviews. I seriously doubt Patrick Roberts viewed any of them.

Good thing Glenn wasn't going to throw her a really hardball question like "What newspapers do you read?"

Umm, your headline says that Palin "lost it" on Glenn Beck and Bill O'Reilly. You then go on to quote from a show in which she didn't appear. Weird or What? Nice work. Is it possible that maybe she was not serious? I have no idea and neither do you. I think you have Palin Derangement Syndrome. Kinda convenient that you would quote those wackos..Beck and O'Reilly when it suits your needs. How insane is that?
