Wow.
Have you seen the Sarah Palin interviews that Katie Couric did on CBS? [note: we watched them on youtube. we can't stand CBS]
It has to be painfully obvious that this person is not qualified for global politics. Is she an over-achiever? Oh hell yes. This is a Miss Alaska runner up who somehow managed to be elected governor of Alaska.
But watching these interviews...one just cringes as you watch her flounder so completely. Her lack of experience [hey, where have we heard that phrase before...OH YEAH, McSame has been shouting that about Obama for months...], her lack of intelligence, her lack of knowledge of world affairs, her seeming lack of "think on your feet" ability was all exposed like scurrying bugs on the underside of an overturned rock.
The Nixons were never super enthused by McPain, but this choice of VP reveals itself to be more baffling every day.
Too bad they couldn't have waited to announce her until about a week before the election. As much as they prepped and sheltered her, it only took about a week for her complete lack of qualification to become apparent.
The upcoming Palin/Biden debates could be a train wreck. Do not miss that one. But then, McClaim could just "suspend" the campaign for some reason or another the day of that debate. Or watch, there will be some "family emergency" or they will play the "i have a special needs child" card.
They will try something to bail her out. In the very least, expect some last minute protocol or ground rules changes within days or hours of that debate.
We sure hope that debate actually happens, because it will be interesting to see how she reacts under that kind of pressure. We actually want to see how Biden handles it too. Too smug, and she wins no matter what. And don't even come off as sexist or chauvenistic!
And now we wait...
-the Nixons
