Stumping Sarah (Couric Interview) she's SO far over her head its a joke. Can't wait for the debate!
She can't handle basic questions from the press. She's going to be eaten alive in the debates and she's going to look like an idiot. I mean, honestly, Biden is going to take her to school. She literally has zero idea about what she's being asked.

The good thing about this is that "stumping Sarah" is becoming sport. The press are frothing with the idea of "pulling a Charlie" and confusing the hell out of Sarah. It doesn't seem very hard does it?

Her interview with Couric is MUST SEE TV.

1. even better listen to it with the video off


Katie Couric sounds like someone who could reasonably be a VP pick and as Cliffordu's wife said Palin sounds like a temp.

2. I was crying, actually crying I was laughing so hard!
She's a FUCKING IDIOT! I mean she is absolutely, completely clueless. She has NO idea. This is going to be fun.

5. I just can't take her seriously. It's Bizarro world--totally. What in
the name of God is she even talking about? Her answers say nothing at all.

6. They have no respect for the American public or the presidency.
Choosing somebody so inept and unqualified is total proof of that.

11. I don't even know how she got to be MAYOR
I have heard more intelligent, articulate, MEANINGFUL answers from guys running for the local dog-catcher. She cannot hide that deer in the headlights look, which is pretty much with any question that deviates a little from her script. And what was up with the notes on her lap? And then the "I'll bring 'em to ya" at the end was downright embarrassing. THIS is the woman that the Republicans think all of us Hillary voters would embrace? I'd rather vote for Katie Couric as VP -- she at least sounded credible.

This is a total insult, and a real risk to this country's future! Could you imagine this woman being at the helm in any kind of crisis? SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT SHE'S TALKING ABOUT, PEOPLE!!! How are the Republicans spinning this trainwreck -- please don't tell me they think this was good stuff...?

14. embarrassing? why, what on earth do you mean?
She had the most charming smile and an adorable sparkle in her eye when she said "I'll bring 'em to ya!" It was enchanting.

I suppose I'd better do this: :sarcasm:

12. The competitive nature of the business may work against Palin.
Now that both Gibson and Palin have stumped Palin on basic questions, anyone interviewing her will appear like a lame journo if they can't similarly stump her.

I'm very much looking forward to her future interviews.

19. You can tell that Couric is pissed off
here she's had to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, being set up in the News as an anchor and then told to Interview this IDIOT.. It looked like she wanted to take Palin down a notch or two, repeating the same questions until she got a nonanswer, after the third time, it was like asking a challenged kid "WHO took the Cookies? Are you SURE?"..

Palin is like some LIZA program, the beginnings of artificial intelligence, where the program repeats your statement back to you, only changes the inflection.. I remember an old cartoon where aliens take over the planet and their whole gig is to simply repeat the last statement back that was said to you, and to a dumb human, who fills in the blanks it seems almost like an actual conversation..

The Moose in the Headlights look was frightening, Palin was Scared Shitless the whole time, then pulled the CUTSEY PIE scam out of her ass at the end.

Disgusting. This is Madness, pure and simple.. how dare they shit all over the forefathers of this once great nation..

22. It's not "debates" - it's only one VP debate
and, they shortened the allotted answer time so she won't have as much time to look as bad.

I think they're lowering expectations so much so that anything short of a complete meltdown will be considered a victory for her.

Edited on Thu Sep-25-08 10:26 AM by FKA MNChimpH8R

27. I watched Bidens speech then her interview. I feel embarrassed for GOP
having her as the VP nominee.

And it pisses me off that he picked some one so dumb just for votes. Biden must be pissed that she is considered his equal in this nomination.

He should be careful in the debates not to sound too much like a smarty pants because he is compared to her.
