'The View' News 2014: Sarah Palin Says She Would Be A Perfect Fit For The Show [VIDEO]
It looks as though Sarah Palin will do just anything to stay in the headlines these days. The former Vice Presidential candidate has recently suggested that she would be a "perfect fit" on The View, following Barbara Walter's retirement and Sherri Sheppard and Jenny McCarthy's exit from the show as well.

Palin recently mentioned during an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that she would make a great host and will "bring some sense" back to the daytime talk show.
"I hear everyone recently got canned from The View, maybe a show like that needs a punch of reality and a voice of reason from America's heartland to knock some humble sense into their scripts," she said. "You know, someone willing to go rogue."

She also added, "It would be so much fun to shake it up taking on issues that make audiences objectively consider all sides, and I'd do it with my own real-life groundedness, candor and common sense that I'm known for. Media needs that today, verses the condescension that oozes from TV and radio."
Meanwhile, Bethenny Frankel's name was also being tossed around as another possible candidate for the show, although the former talk show host denied that she was ever offered a contract.
She wrote on her Twitter account, "Funny. I'm getting more attention for a talk show that I'm not on and haven't been offered than one that I'm actually on. #lessworkmolove."
According to reports, the ABC Network is looking to replace Walters with someone who will be able to mix well with the rest of the cast while still give the show a ratings boot. A source tells Naughty But Nice Rob, "The View is looking for someone to spice up the show. Someone with lots of opinions and a big personality and Bethenny is at the top of the list."
Palin's reality television show, Amazing America with Sarah Palin, just got picked up for a second season by The Sporting Network.
