They admit that they expected the Couric interview to be easy

Apologies if this was posted previously, but this cracks me up.

“She was under the impression the Couric thing was going to be easier than it was. Everyone’s guard was down for the Couric interview.”

Duh. That's what everyone thought. Still, SheWhoNeedsNotBeNamed was incapable of handling such hard-hitting questions as "what do you read" and providing examples of McCain's record as a regulator or an example of Supreme Court decision she disagrees with not named Row v. Wade. It wasn't that Couric suddenly morphed into some kind of Pit Bull with lipstick, it was that SWNNBN was unprepared to give any interviews above the Seasame Street level.

I wish she would have gone on The View and I don't even watch The View.

1. May I say something? The Couric interview *WAS* easy!

The woman is so incredibly stupid, it makes me wish she were not a woman. She's an EMBARRASSMENT! She's flunk an interview with a 7 yr old.

2. Cousic's interview was embarrassingly "soft" - the questions were far too easy

For any real contender for VP. What did they expect - questions about the plot of My Pet Goat?

9. What struck me most about that interview was Katies tone of voice

she asked the questions like she was talking to a child, or someone who would frighten easily.

I think Katie did her homework.

13. Her facial expressions while listeneing to Sarah were priceless, too.

Solid gold! :-)

3. Turns out, she a pit vole

4. I don't see how asking what a candidate reads as "hard" or a fake-out.

Maybe that's me.

6. I just saw a clip of her defending herself

saying that people in Alaska aren't hicks and pretty much read the same things everyone else in America reads. :shrug: That's her answer? Weeks after the interview to reconsider every gaffe and that's her answer? :shrug:

Note that she still hasn't answered the fucking question! You know most people are somewhat proud of what they read as it tends to become part of one's self. Ask me that question and I could talk nonstop for an hour.

8. Lots of unanswered questions

Like how does proximity to Russia give her foriegn policy experience. All she did was describe the proximity before rambling about Putin's head. Still wondering here, how does proximity become experience? Get back to me, wontcha?

12. Alaskans defend us from the Rooskies

Every morning, when Alaskans wake up, one of the first things they do, is look outside to see if there are any Russians hanging around. And if there are, you gotta go up to them and ask, 'What are you doing here?' and if they can't give you a good reason, it's our responsibility to say, you know, 'Shoo! Get back over there!'

5. Should 've just said: "We could always count on Katie before"

My advice to Rich: better cancel the check!

7. I thought it would be easy pic.

10. Name a newspaper or magazine that you read

Wow, that's just right out of the "gotcha" school of journalism! Chapter 1, man.

[AlCzervik]

14. exactly. What's you favorite color---gotcha! What your favorite ice cream flavor---gotcha!

what number comes after 4---gotcha!

[pokerfan]

15. To be fair, what's you favorite color?' was a dangerous question

in Monty Python and the Holy Grail:

KEEPER: What is your favorite color?
GALAHAD: Blue. No yel-- Auuuuuuuugh!

[AlCzervik]

16. i'm sure she thinks Money Python is a gay snake.

"Monty what now also?"
