I thought she was powerful and fantastic....spot on!
She's a toughie!..(in a nice way)
You listen to the obomobots and they keep screaming about obozo being "vetted" by the public during the past year or so and I can't stop thinking that we need to keep our eye on the ball. Oboma may have been asked a bunch of questions during the past year-whether or not you're happy with his answers is a whole nother issue-but even with a year of questions he hasn't got one more day of executive experience.
I'm not sure if Palin would be perfect, probably not, but I'm absolutely certain that Obomber would be a phakin' nightmare.
Gibson is insipid. It was very apparent that Sarah Palin is if far superior intellect than the interviewer. If he is bombarded by words to the point that he couldn’t understand what she was saying, he doesn’t deserve his multi-million dollar a year job.
The first thing I saw about this was this ABC guy half-quoting Gov. Palin and lying when he called her on it. Why would anyone watch any more of this after that? What can anyone expect to learn when the interviewer is a liar?

Never. Lots of women have had men like this for a boss and it is unbearable. Gibson was almost sneering in his disrespect.
Unless you missed the interview, the link doesn’t contain much. Don’t bother.
Is this the form in which this interview is to be aired? Seems like they edited out most of her response and Gibson was interrogating her... I hope this is edited by a left wing blog or something.
For those having a hard time watching or finding the videos,here’s a link.

You will have to put up with the prerequisite advertisement.
She is not a pissant!! You take that back!
If Campbell Brown didn’t look like a second-tier catalog model, she wouldn’t have the job.
The chairs they were sitting in looked like chairs at my dentist’s office. They had Gov. Palin sitting so close to him she had to slouch to not have to play footsie with him.
He was a pompous Ass. She was authentic and real.
I watched the interview and in my opinion, Charlie Gibson was interrogating Governor Palin as if she were NOT the VP candidate, but as if she were the Presidential candidate.
Are they going to have a sit-down with "Plugs Biden" and ask him the same questions? If so, I already know his answers to all questions asked him: "Look Charlie, I'm not going to do what the failed Bush administration did the last eight years." That one answer has been Biden's every time I've seen him on TV. It works for all questions asked him.
I thought she came off well. I thought Charlie came off terrible. It seemed like he was rifling off questions and not really listening to the answers. I do not remember Charlie Gibson showing such bias before.

The RNC needs to learn how to answer these continual attack talking points of the left.
When Gibson was hammering her about what does energy independence have to do with national security, Palin needed to say:
“CONGRESSES INACTION AND DELIBERATE CLOSING DOWN OF THE U.S. DEVELOPING ITS OWN RESOURCES HAS ALLOWED AMERICA’S ENEMIES TO BLACKMAIL US. AND YES CHARLIE, THAT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH NATIONAL SECURITY!”
And after the badgering regarding crossing over the border in Pakistan to deal with terrorists, Sarah needed to personalize it (that’s the only way a liberal ever gets it):
“Charlie, if someone who attacked you and then promised to kill you, your wife, and children, moved into your neighbors garage, you have some choices. You can go over to your neighbor and ask them to evict the lowlifes in their garage, but if your neighbor refuses, you go over there and deal with it yourself WITH OR WITHOUT YOUR NEIGHBOR’S PERMISSION! Of course, Charlie, there is the option of doing nothing and standing by while the thugs kill the people you love, but that’s not what John McCain and I are all about.”
Gipson and Step were not as tuff on Obama in the debates and liberals went nuts.
This was the gamble. Sarah's sudden stardom has boosted the energy to the point she eclipses McCain. But she has to do more than the standard speech.. That's the challenge. She may have been “vetted” iow, they looked at her background, videos,etc, but she's never been in this crucible before.
Gibson was snotty and condescending, but come on, we knew that all the reporters are like that. It's part of the game
