clipped from www.nydailynews.com Reinke/AP Former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin had her claws out at the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville, Tenn. as she criticized President Obama's leadership. The former GOP vice presidential candidate teed off on President Obama's leadership, saying a failed attempt to blow up an airliner on Christmas Day was evidence of how he's mishandling the war on terror. "To win that war, we need a commander in chief, not a professor of law," Palin told followers of the grass-roots conservative movement. Palin, the former governor of Alaska, also told about 1,000 people at the event in Nashville, Tenn., that Obama's proposed 2011 budget is "immoral" because it increases the national debt, which she called "generational theft."
