Huffington Post is all over this image, showing Sarah Palin's hand during the Tea Party Convention speech. On it, she has written: "Energy, budget cut tax, Lift American Spirits."

Here's HuffPo's Stefan Sirucek's analysis:
The takeaway is that this presidential contender apparently can't remember her supposed core principles and needs a cheat-sheet when simply asked about her beliefs.
I don't know about you, but I'd be thrilled if all Republican politicians wrote their core principles on their hands and referenced them frequently. It'd be a welcome change from ostensibly having principles and then forgetting about them. And I don't buy the elitism in his analysis: Americans are probably more in touch with someone who occasionally writes on their hand rather than someone who never does.
