US lecture circuit believes Sarah Palin is a "blithering idiot"

New York, Sept 30 (ANI): Sarah Palin may have bagged a fat paycheck for her soon-to-be-released memoir, but American lecture buyers think she is an "idiot".

Although, Palin has entered into a deal with the Washington Speakers Bureau, which also represents high profile speakers including George W. Bush, Laura Bush, Condoleezza Rice, the lecture circuit has not been very favourable to her.

"The big lecture buyers in the US are paralyzed with fear about booking her, basically because they think she is a blithering idiot," an industry expert was quoted by the New York Post, as saying.

The insider added that big lectures venues had subscribers "and they don't want to tick people off.... Palin is polarizing, and some subscribers might cancel if she's on the lineup."

The insider also said Palin's speeches were not at all engaging.

He said: "Palin is so uninteresting to so many groups -- unless they are interested in moose hunting.... What does she have to say? She can't even describe what she reads."

Another source pointed out that Palin threw away the Governorship of Alaska months before schedule to make money.

The source said: "She knew that if she waited until her term ended in 2010, these opportunities would be gone," said a source. She would have lost millions by staying in office." (ANI)
