Katie Couric Sarah Palin Interview

Quote from Pa(b)st Prime:

Asking about McCains voting record was an ambush. You can't expect her to know details of the 6000 or something votes he's made. I find it interesting that no one asks Obama why he picked a VEEP who voted for BOTH Iraq and the bankruptcy bill.

You think that's an ambush!?

LOL, she should have been preped on that one a long time ago. That would be the first series of questions I'd want to ask her ... especially since he is MIA.

Regardless of your politics, Biden is qualified to be president.

It's not that she doesn't know McCain's voting record. It's that she's an idiot. Anyone who follows politics (not even someone in politics) with half a brain would have been able to riff on the fact that McCain was a deregulator. She had no idea had to handle the question because she has no idea about any of the fundamental isssues of her generations (or McCain's generation.)

Quote from Allen3:

I'll call and raise you one Biden. What's all this prove... We got idiots running the country, idiots running for president,
and idiots flaming about it on the internet. Get a clue Jimmy Jam/MS.

Thank you for your intelligent commentary ... we're all trying to figure-out why you even post on a trading website ... now we know.

Quote from MandelbrotSet:

Notice my approach was netural, I just posted the interview(s).

IMHO, the questions where not too hard, and Katie didn't ambush her, not did she ask her any really hard questions about her personal life or what exactly it was that she did as a Govenor of Alaska beside hunt, play ice hockey and shoot moose.

Palin looks horrible and you guys know it ... it's very telling that she backed-out of her interview last night on the David Letterman Show ... now I know why.

Sorry quite right. Was putting together your other political commentary with this thread start, While the other dill-hole of a vp doesn't know who was in office in 1929 and that there was no tv for FDR to rally the nation from.

It was McCain who backed out by the way.

Quote from vingbel:

appealing only to people who are easily fooled. The question is: How many of these people are out there?

Enough to get him elected.

Question, if the majority of voters are in favor of him, which side is the Fool?

Yeah, thanks for proving my point and then some ..., I can't WAIT until the debates come around ... gonna be glued to the tube for these puppies.

Obama vs. McCain = Obama wins by TKO

but

Biden vs. Palin = Biden absolutely massacres her ... anyone taking bets to see whether she starts crying or not?

Katie is not a journalist, I still don't understand why CBS Hired her.

It is very clear which way she is slanted!

She slants in the direction she is told to slant, dont look at her, look at who signs her check.

What?

I don't understand why you guys are so upset at those softballs Katie lobbed at Palin ... just because they made her look like a ... BIMBO.

If the majority votes for a ticket with Palin on it, then the answer is that the majority are the fools.

Sorry to say it, but that's what it has come down to. I've voted Republican and I've voted Democrat and I remember the days when both candidates were smart and pragmatic and it wasn't all about some crazy ideology.

I thought that this year, we had two of those type of candidates, but with every crazy move McCain makes, it seems like we've only got one.
