Here is a snipet of video from Katie Couric's interview with both John McCain and Sarah Palin. McCain lets Palin speak for herself for the most part. Katie is trying to highlight what she thinks is a Palin gaffe regarding Pakistan, but as Palin explains, "Never would OUR administration get out there and show are cards..."(in regard to incursions in to Pakistan)
That statement is in line with what McCain has said regarding Pakistan and whether or not we would cross it's borders to persue terrorist. The fact is we have already done so if you believe the stories about our Predator Drones taking out Al Qaeda in Pakistan.

They are trying. But they are not going to do it through the MSM. Forget Couric and Gibson. Take it to the people.
Not sure why they felt they had to go see Katie again, this time with “Dad”.
Sarah should be doing a lot of conservative radio and friendly media so that she gets comfortable again when articulating the issues.
Palin is a lot more impressive than these interviews have made her look. She will do better in the debate because they can’t cut and paste her answers.
Go Obama !
I often watch the news with my mothere of 86 and call Katie a BI#ch. During that interview my mother said. “Wow she IS a BI#ch!” Too funny. Did you all see how Katie screwed up her face when John talked about Gotcha Journalism?
Exactly!
Limbaugh
Hannity and Colmes
O’Reilly
Lou Dobbs
Glenn Beck
The bailout out rejection proves the power of new media and talk radio vs the perceived overlords at the alphabet networks.
It looked like she brought her dad there to help out. I was appalled.
At our mommy group this morning we agreed, she can either hold her own or she can’t- but this made her look weak to us. You never bring someone else with you on an interview! Does the McCain campaign not trust her? What are they thinking? Why do they try to hide her and control her every move? The only way she will get better at these interviews is if they let her have them- by herself. Let her go!
I saw that nasty little wemch interviewing Sarah Palin, just looking for a gotcha. She and Bill Maher should both be taken out into 6 feet of water and held under for a few minutes, figuratively speaking of course.
WENCH, I meant to say.
Oh good lord. Are you going to say the same thing when Katy interviews Barry and Joe together?
They are running as a team. They are going to be interviewed together many times, get used to it.
I do agree, they should take it to the people. It is just that the only way to the people is the MSM. I guess that is our frustration with the debate between McCain and Obama. Speak up and slam the idiot.
Our best hope is Thursday night, when Sarah can shine. I don’t want to sound like some Sarah worshipper or something, but I do believe God has put her in this position for a reason. Values, morals and character have come to the front of this campaign and that is a good thing. We must all pray that the Holy Spirit will guide her in all that she says.
I believe this campaign is a turning point in the future of the United States. Do we return to our founding principles or give way to a more secular world. I believe God is in charge, and lets just hope and pray, we are on His side.
Why?
How about those dunking chairs that the Puritans used for liars and scoundrels.
Probably true; but it was fun to see McCain tell Katie in front of the public don’t put the bodgie wodgie on us.
You don’t.
And Amen!

Your Mommy group is showing its sexism. What’s wrong with having your running mate at your side? If she was a man would you have the same opinion?
Just because she’s a women you expect more from her than is realistic. I’ve worked along side men all of my life. I am happy to say that I have never felt like I’m the women and their the men. I’ve always felt and have been treated as just a person. Once you put a male/female component to it it becomes sexism.
Watch the Couric eyeblinks. She was positively churning inside.
This was a good moment. The McCain/Palin ticket needs more of them..and in front of the people, not these gotcha journalists.
