Don't think we will be very happy with this. Looks like a heavily edited hit piece. This seems to be a mistake by McCain/Palin.
Well McCain just has too much trust in the old media.
Let Palin debate Obama or Biden.
What made you think otherwise?
Not surprised.
You know Katie and crew will do everything they can to minimize and marginalize Sarah.
Sarah is definitely not ready for prime time. She reminded me of Admiral Stockdale when he was picked as Ross Perots running mate. Palin had a few good responses, but Katie nailed her about not knowing McCain’s legislative record.
It was okay. I thought she did well. It was very short.
Remember, this is the network of Dan “Fake but Accurate” Rather.
They’ve got scores to settle.
You are pretty new to this forum and we cannot check your posting history.
Are you sure you are part of "we"?
Good grief. Joe Biden doesn’t even know his own legislative record.
WHO CARES IF SHE KNOWS MCCAINS LEGISLATIVE RECORD OR NOT.
DO YOU KNOW IT?? CAN BIDEN TELL US ABOUT OBAMA’S RECORD IN THE IL SENATE?
She had a gopher ball tossed at her. She could have hit it out of the park.
EAR MARK reform.
Good grief. Joe Biden doesnt even know his own legislative record.
______________
Thank you!
Judging from what I just read, there's nothing there. Care to post a link or something just to clue us in to what you're refering to?
Who cares, nobody watches CBS news.
Oh, STOP IT! Obama is not ready for prime time...neither is Biden.
She did fine. Its all about the debates. No one watches the cbs evening news
Couric said that the entire interview can be watched at cbs.com - cbs being cbs, they would pick her worst bits to show on the air.
After this week with Joe Biden’s goofs, who should be more concerned? Answer: Obama and Biden
I see the wealthy putting everything in cash.
What are you talking about? Her answers? Her attitude? Her looks? Her speech? WHAT?
Another thing is that when Couric was interviewing McCain today she put in Palin's mouth the risk of a Great Depression. But in fact in the interview it was Couric who had suggested that and Palin did not say yes but indicated it was a crisis situation. So Couric misrepresented that it was Palin who made the remark and caused McCain to stumble a bit suggesting to him 'whether it was appropriate for Palin' or something to that effect to suggest we are heading to a Great Depression if something is not done. Complete misrepresentation.
It may not be a mistake if they have source video. If Couric hacks it up, they can provide the original to other news outlets and play on media competition, pointing out how cBS hacks up news.
People know that the drivebys are in the tank for the socialists.
She did fine.
Couric came across as catty and hateful.
> anybody got any ideas what country is good to move too.
> I see the wealthy putting everything in cash.
You’re still better off here than anywhere else in the world.
If the American economy tanks, those of other nations will tank even worse. The response of the economies of other nations to that of the U.S. will present an exponential curve.
Isn’t the McCain campaign treating her as if she’s not ready for prime time?
IBTZ
And just who are you to say “we”....maybe you’re one of “them”...??
When editing is place then nothing much is of value from it.
Wait to we see the real uncut data from this so called interview.
I'm hoping that the McCain camp has recorded these interviews and is going to one day soon compare their editing against the actual interviews.
I thought Palin did fine in the Gibson interview. I thought she did fine in the answer to the Bush doctrine. Yet the leftist media managed to play that up for Hussein Osama's benefit.
Palin had 2 wobbly moments (Davis; not knowing McCain's record), and it seems the video was specifically edited to point that out and the leftist media will be hammering them home over the next weeks.
I agree. The very end was not good where she kept hammering her about McCain’s reforms over the last 25 years. They seemed to make so that Sarah was thrown a bit and was not able to answer the question. Then she just said she would get back to her about it. Not a gaffe per se, but definitely something the MSM will crucify her for. Man... they just want to destroy Sarah...
And you think Biden or Nobama is ready for prime-time. You can't be series. :))))))
Good grief. Is that all?
Don’t worry....she’s going to kick @$$ at her debate.....this will be forgotten. Not a big deal about knowing McCains record...
“Isnt the McCain campaign treating her as if shes not ready for prime time?”
May I ask you what is more prime time than two of the three network evening news anchors in no pre-condition interviews?
“Another thing is that when Couric was interviewing McCain today she put in Palin’s mouth the risk of a Great Depression. But in fact in the interview it was Couric who had suggested that and Palin did not say yes but indicated it was a crisis situation. So Couric misrepresented that it was Palin who made the remark and caused McCain to stumble a bit suggesting to him ‘whether it was appropriate for Palin’ or something to that effect to suggest we are heading to a Great Depression if something is not done. Complete misrepresentation.”
I was totally flabbergasted when I heard Couric’s question and Governor Palin’s response. It was not just a misrepresentation, it was an outright lie. Governor Palin said the exact opposite. From the transcript:
Couric: If this doesn’t pass, do you think there’s a risk of another Great Depression?
Palin: Unfortunately, that is the road that America may find itself on. Not necessarily this, as it’s been proposed, has to pass or we’re going to find ourselves in another Great Depression. But, there has got to be action - bipartisan effort - Congress not pointing fingers at one another but finding the solution to this, taking action, and being serious about the reforms on Wall Street that are needed.
Katie’s face was so contortecd during interview. I bet Sarah thought ....girl, you need work! Interview was made to make Paln look uninformed.
“anybody got any ideas what country is good to move too.
I see the wealthy putting everything in cash.”
Don’t move, just follow their example. They will put their money back in the market in a couple of years; there will be bargain prices all over the place.
She was just being herself.
Well, What I want to know is after the Gibson debacle did the McPAL had their own camera in the room.....PROBABLY NOT! DAMG IT!
McCain needs to quit with the handling and let her be her.
That is what is wrong with Washington, once you get there you check your personality at the door. And sometimes your brain.
Lay off her and let her go.
“A hit piece” - I would expect nothing less out of Katie Couric!
