Hey, maybe she still is, for all I know.

Anyway, that's one of the revelations in the E! True Hollywood Story about the former Alaska Governor, airing on April 21 at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

Here are the juiciest quotes the show culled from various experts who've observed the scary lady in action.

*As a high school basketball player, "she got the nickname Sarah Barracuda. Some people didn't even like playing with her, she would scratch them and get up real close to them and she was very physical."

* "She was a natural beauty. I was surprised that Sarah had been in beauty pageants, because she was so incredibly shy. I really couldn't see her standing in front of a group of people or in front of a group of judges. And I couldn't see her wanting to be center stage."

(So she was a barracuda who scratches, but was also painfully shy? What is this, an Alaskan Rashomon?)

* "She was so new on the scene and so different. I mean she can skin a moose. The whole back-story thing makes her so different. It just feeds curiosity."

* "People can't tell the difference [between] what she said and what Tina Fey said and they just sort of accredit everything to Sarah Palin."

And most heart-tuggingly of all:

* "She came home to absolutely no friends. The Democrats who she had worked with no longer had much to say to her. So, it wasn't a big glory coming home."

Not even "Welcome back, Sarah Barracuda!"

Holy Bacarudda Batguy!  There are sharks in these waters!  People Against the Ethical Treatment of Palin (PAETP) cannot see the forest for the channing. She is just a stalking horse for a REAL candidate who will save the country not that that unknown hobo under the bridge could not win AND do a better job...between drinking binges. I had hoped the guy would realize his inexperience and Eisenhower pick the brains of those who know about specialized areas...not just pilot for the rocks and lead a salvage socialist crew to pick up the shards of the ship of state.

How many coincidences does it take to make something morethan a coincidence?

 

Sarah Palin a Maverick

John McCain a Maverick

Maverick Mark Cuban appears to be the Rich Jerk in the RichJerk videos

Robert Johnson Rich Jerk appears to be Tony Rezko who soldObama real estate

Sarah Palin’s basketball name (Barrac-uda) as in Barack-uda

Barack Obama’s basketball name (O’Bomber)

Mr. internet technology (Ma)verick (Ma)rk Cuba-n was underinvestigation of insider trading for a company called (Ma)mma. Sarah Palincoined the phrase “(ma)(ma) grizzly” (Ma)verick (Ma)rk Cuban produced a moviethrough (Ma)gnolia Pictures called Redacted. Sarah Palin’s 24,199 emails willhave a lot of information which will be “redacted.” Why not release 24,000emails, why the strange number? The Rich Jerk program originally sold for $199,must be another odd coincidence. Probably as odd as the first testimonial onThe Rich Jerk site being from Mark Joyner, who’s actually FBI most wantedterrorist Seif al-Adel.

 

I said it before and I’ll say it again, Sarah Palin is afederally fabricated person. Her identity as governor of Alaska was fabricated by the feds. If I’mmaking all of this up, she would sue me, and the FBI and secret service wouldarrest me. Sarah’s last name is short for palindrome. George SOROS(apalindrome) has been credited with collapsing a number of nations currenciesand speaks of a New World Order.

Palin flips back and forth like a fish out of water. She is the biggest moron on the circuit today.

This is very Helen Lawson in Valley of the Dolls: "I'm a barracuda!"

some say that it was that atmosphere that lent to the questionable trip across the country this summer, but my question to the questionable -- why were gay people so apathetic and participatory while screaming about hate crimes, discrimination, and homophobia?? love bunny's ballad -- it's beautifully clever and poignant in many ways. yet, why is so much of the music lacking balls?? have some people been drinking the kool-aid of opera castrati for far too long?? i tried and i'm still vomiting to this day!!
