Folks, we should be worried about Gov. Palin, not Katie Couric. Palin is not well prepared for these interviews. Her answers are rambling and sometimes incoherent.
She needs to learn how to deflect the gotcha questions about inconsequential details like Rick Davis’ career details.
She needs to have 2 to 3 key points she wants to get across in each interview and get them in no matter what questions are asked. She should have been well prepared with McCain’s foresight and actions in the Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Instead, she flubbed a question on this she should have hit out of the park.
She needs to show some fangs. She looks like a school girl in an interview for her first job. If she doesn’t show some of her steel core we are going to be in big trouble. When they ask her about some perceived problem with McCain she needs to bring up something about Obama.
These problems need to be fixed and fast.
I am not so sure about that. McCain was only 2 or 3 points behind Hussein last week in the polls here in Michigan, now the Free Press is reporting a 51 - 38 Obama advantage. I hope these polls are BS, if not, McCain is in BIG trouble.
GRITS* know what “bless her heart” really means

Governor Palin should directly challenge this disrespect for herself, her office, and her State whenever it happens. Something like, “Katie, I am the elected governor of the state of Alaska. As a matter of respect, the people of Alaska deserve to have their elected chief executive addressed by the title that office provides. I will not allow Alaskans to be treated in this manner again.”
Look at that ugly, hateful look on Couric’s face ... disgusting.
Maybe she should start calling Katie, “sugar”.
Governor Palin needs to take a page from Ann Coulter when dealing with Couric and her ilk:
“Oh, Katie, so you’re a feminist? How cute! How absolutely perky!”
Our side needs to verbally smack these idiots down publicly once in a while.
I have NEVER and will NEVER watch Ms. Couric. How disgusting and arrogant she is.
Palin needs to grow a pair in these interviews. She allowed Katie Couric to say “other than his attempt to reform Fannie Mae what OTHER reforms has McCain proposed in 26 years in the Senate? Can you name one?” And then pestered Palin again. Palin’s response of “I’ll get ‘em to ya” was cringe-worthy. She has way too much deference for these blowhards, because she has been away from this Northeast media circus her whole career. She should have said “What else do you need Katie? John McCain proposed reform and Democrats like Obama blocked it. Why do you want to chance the subject? Let’s stick with what matter to America”.

Refusing to conduct yourself according to the atandards you’ve either set for yourself or agreed to conduct yourself by is one of the main hallmarks of corruption.
Are there any FReepers who work at a major network, in editing especially? We need to take a secret video of one of these meetings or edits and release it to Drudge to show the disgusting bias at play against Sarah.
It only emphasizes how JEALOUS katy is, and yes I intentionally used a small k.
Is Couric’s chair higher than Palin’s chair?
To these media liberals it is all a sickening game of "got-yas" and snide remarks. It is not a serious issue of selecting a president who is best for our country and evaluating both candidates - pro and con - fairly. They don't ever see beyond party lines and they don't ever follow the old rules of journalism to be objective. It just is all about them pushing for Obama and negating anything of value in McCain and Palin. Just so people will say "Katie (et al) was right, she picked the right person." That is why they do all they can to get their candidate in the WH just because they want to feel they were an important influence in the election process. They are so self-centered. They have no honor, no concern about the real issues or the good of the American people. They don't live like most of the American people, so why should our interests concern them?
It’s worse than bias in the media.
Katie C. was mocked and belittled for months about her performance on her job
And now - SHE did the same to Sarah Palin!!
Where is her feminist instincts to protect women?? Doesn’t she get that she is repeating the very same verminous actions by those who criticized her?
Obviously, her “ELEVATOR DOESN’T GO ALL THE WAY
TO THE TOP.” She is dumb as a box o’ rocks.
“Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.” Oscar Wilde
I can hardly wait for her to go!
