Today, top McCain aide Rick Davis indicated the campaign isn't in any hurry to slot Palin for a Sunday show appearance -- and will do so only if he and other strategists determine it serves the ticket's purposes, not because some may view it as a required initiation for a major political player.
Appearing on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" show, Davis said, "I'd never commit to anything in the future. ... Our strategy is in our hands, not the media's. We're going to do what's in our best interests to try to win the election. If we think going on TV news shows are [sic] in our best interests, we'll do it. If we don't, we won't."

She should put out an announcement....I’m sorry but I have to take care of my baby...you know the one you say I don’t have time for. Its really you I don’t have time for.
But this is great. No one is trashing McCain, our next POTUS. He is acting presidential, Sarah is bringing in the crowds to hear our next POTUS, Biden has disappeared and Obama? Well he is running against our lipstick.
Please God let this continue.
I can see it now... CNN: “Good Morning Gov. Palin”.…..Gov. Palin: “Good Morning”.
CNN: “Well there you have it. Gov. Palin is against evenings and people who have anything to do in the evenings. By showing her preference for mornings she has clearly show she is not ready for the Oval office.”
Uh oh! Boy, that's gonna tick 'em off. They might even say mean things about Republicans now!
susie
That’s what I was thinking. I hope she finds a good church in the DC area.
My prediction is to throw Katie Couric a bone, and do the first interview with her.
Gee...The McCain campaign is not going to allow the MSM to manipulate Sarah’s answers into 10 second sound bites taken out of context? Shame on them.
That’s what I was thinking... Maybe she wants to go to church...
That McCain doesn't place a high priority on church attendance. A shame, really.
Campbell Brown should be gone.
Testify!
Yes!
If she were any other pol, I’d agree. Since she is so well liked as an unknown outsider, the McCain people could shut the msm out, and use their mistreatment of Palin as the reason. They could have her talk to the people directly at rallies or w/ friendly talk show hosts, and knock the msm out of their role as kingmaker. They could reset the playing field.
A collateral bonus would be the msm talking amongst themselves about the Palin position, bellyaching and whining, would take away air time they could have spent talking about their beloved Obama. The msm is so full of themselves, I could see them making the Palin snub an issue larger than the debatable issues between Mac and o.
It won’t happen, but I’d like to see it. I think it would work in this one instance.
“Sarah Palin is a STAR.”
I truly have a problem with this. I don’t see how it’s any different than the Demo worship of Obama.

I just don’t see how that will work, and in fact don’t agree with it. You want to be the VP and possibly the president, you’ve got to face whatever. Should the potential president of the U.S. remain completely insulated from the bad guys? Of course not. Awful, awful idea. If she’s got the “balls,” show it.
Sarah will go on Sunday Morning TV when Obama goes on the FOX Sunday show with Brit Hume filling in.
No offense, but you're even clueless about your cluelessness.
Palin has substance, Obama doesn't.
