“I don’t know if I would have to bother to make it an issue, because I think that members of the electorate still want answers,” she replied.”
Can somebody explain to me what this means? If she thinks it is a fair/legitimate question and that the “electorate” still wants answers, why wouldn’t she bother to make it an issue?
I know I’m going to get pummeled by the Palinistas, but it is this kind of bizarre answer that is going to dog her for the next couple of years, particularly if she decides to run.
Palin eventually is going to have to decide if she wants to run for President or pacify her supporters because I’m increasingly coming to the conclusion she won’t be able to do both.
And this is just the tip of the iceberg. I can think of other questions she’s going to have trouble dealing with if she can’t figure out how to handle this relatively easy one from a conservative radio host.
I don't think her answer gives anything more to the Press to smack her around with. They already have their line laid out; she's a whacko, period.
I doubt that you will be able to grasp this, but it may help some others who have questions.
I heard what she said as this: Because the voters think it’s an important question, and because BHO hasn’t provided a suitable answer, it is a fair question for voters to pursue, but I don’t think I will be pursueing it.

You are reaching numbnutz.
Every legitimate question isn’t necessarily a campaign issue.
Are you really this stupid?
Bob, you are right that she side-stepped the question, she had to, because McLame did NOT qualify either and that was not Sarah’s fault!!!
