I don’t believe she is a fatal cancer. That she was not ready for prime time is evident. That she delivered a portion of the base is evident. Still, some were not movtivated, by either candidate, so she didn’t cement it. Rasmuessen did show that she had somewhat deep support from those that did vote on election day that called themselves the base. She had a slightly over 50% negative among those who do not call themselves the base. Saying on Larry King that she was annoyed by some of Couric’s questions (which she admitted were fair) was a miscue. Sure, the base had a rush. But the rest of the people who cast ballots saw her stumble on that question and others.
Now is the time Governor Sarah Palin should step down from her position and don the proverbile burqa and go to the center of the city to be stoned for all of her unpardonable sins!!

How sad it is when honesty is labeled a miscue. Sadder still is that in this media environment, it may be true.
The Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric interviews were tactical errors by the campaign team. Palin's strength is her communication skills. Her initial interviews should have been live sitdowns at a desk with the interviewer. No split screens, no editing, no stupid walking around. The stupid campaign team was so concerned about her makig a mistake that they practically manufactured them for her.
“Saying on Larry King that she was annoyed by some of Couric’s questions (which she admitted were fair) was a miscue. “
Not being ready for prime time, a democrat mantra by the way, didn’t stop Obama from getting elected. In fact, I think Sarah was much more qualified than O.
