NECN: Former vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, criticized for her lack of foreign policy experience, emerged in Asia on Wednesday to share her views from "Main Street U.S.A" with a group of high-flying global investors.

"I'm going to call it like I see it and I will share with you candidly a view right from Main Street, Main Street, U.S.A.," Palin told a room full of asset managers and other finance professionals, according to a video of part of the speech obtained by The Associated Press. "And how perhaps my view of Main Street -- representing perhaps a lot of other people -- how that affects you, your business."

Sarah’s strategy was crystal clear the day she stepped down. Not only did she precisely explain why but gave a HUGE hint at her coming plans.

Well some of us are just a little slow, LOL; what can I say.

Actually there was a little doubt in my mind as to the real reason behind the resignation but no more. Counting down to 2012!

Give them all hell...Sarah.

Unsurprisingly, the NYT selected the least-Presidential possible photo to illustrate this story. Can you imagine a worse shot to diminish her stature?:

Excellent picture of our next President!

Thanks, glad to be on board!

good for sara, but a single speech to some bankers does not ‘policy experiance’ make. The road is long and will be hard.

She needs to get on some think tank or be part of a policy wonk group and get PUBLISHED.

She had better get busy and get a lot more media exposure (the good kind) if she is thinking of running for anything.

Wow, fair reporting from the NY slimes.

One of the Odumbo crew even gave her high remarks, stating that she was bright.

When I said "she has more executive experience that Obama", he decried "Alaska is a small state".

ROTFL! Just goes to show they shouldn't have stopped teaching Geography in schools.

I think Palin is undecided on whether to run for President. She probably wants to do the speaking circuit for a couple of years and see how she’s received before making any decision.

I’d like to see how Palin does on the news pundit shows like Chris Wallace, Bill O’ Reilly, and Megyn Kelly. These people will be tough, but fair to her. Regardless of her decision on whether to run for public office again, I am happy to see Palin do the speaking engagement circuit and making lots of money. The Far Left is exploding over Palin receiving high quality speaking invitations that ex-Presidents get.
