How on EARTH can someone look at the McCain/Palin ticket and think it's a good idea to vote for them? It's irresponsible.

She is as dumb as a box of hammers and would seem to have the political skills of said box.

She prattles on about how John McCain is a maverick and yet when pressed is incapable of outlining anything he has doneto desrve the tag that he and his team invented.

When presented with the fact that the polls say Obama has increased his lead as a consequence of the crisis she starts waffling.

She seems to think (as did a lot of conservatives in the last election here in Australia) that the polls are lieing simply because they want the poll figures to be the way they want them to be.

I hope that the fate of McCain & Palin is the same as that of the conservatives here last year (a complete rout and destruction at the polling booths.

LOL, what a friggin' idiot this woman is.

The Forster quote that comes to mind when I see Palin is, "England for me!"

"What do you think about [X]?"
"Can I have a definition?"

Never underestimate racist idiots, dear. That's the ONLY reason McCain would win, and the country is full of them.

You know, I've been thinking: Should McCain actually win this thing, I intend to start a business that is relentlessly and obsessively geared towards separating bigoted morons from their money: Think the Harriett Carter Catalog, only schmaltzier, and with worse quality junk.

I'm thinking I'll start by getting a truckload of gravel, and start selling them as Holy Land relics: Ancient Stones Trod Upon by Our Lord, authenticated by some made-up religious organization. Three stones to a bag, $5 a bag, plus shipping and handling.

I'll then expand into a line of Sarah Palin wigs.

Who's in it with me? It would be delicious!

What a fucking ignorant, shell-shocked, bubble-headed woman Sarah Palin is.

The View gives the best John McCain interviews and Katy Couric has the best Sarah Palin interview to date. I might actually start watching their respective programming on a regular basis.

NOTHING THERE. Only another woman will be able to expose her so completely. Katie Couric has done it. She deserves a huge career boost from this.

(I bet Palin can't wait for this to be over so she can get her book deal and go home. She's giving up caring for her own children for this, you know?)

If Obama doesn't just trounce McLame/Painful in the election, then something is seriously FUCKED in the universe.

I mean every f-bomb that I dropped.

madness. madness!

To think, I favored Matt Lauer over Katie...

It couldn't possibly get much worse than that first part of the interview when they were walking. She repeated the exactly same talking point, word for word. After like a 10 second pause trying to come up with something else to say.

The "what are the pros and cons of a moratorium on foreclosures" question was excellent. Try to get her to speak intelligently on an issue that anybody could see she knows nothing about. Good job, Katie Couric.

Jesus.

"She is as dumb as a box of hammers..."

"She is obviously really an idiot."

Please, people! This is not fair to the rest of the idiots and boxes of rocks & hammers.

Doesn't this interview make Katie Couric appear dramatically more capable of being vice president than Lady Guv?

Scary.

The implosion that is the McCain campaign continues...

I had the same thought, clearly Couric is vastly more qualified to be President of the United States. And you can see the disbelieving pity in her eyes for this lost lipsticked puppy dog. You have to wonder (assume?) too if Couric felt insulted, that they thought Palin was the best they could do.

Alaska is some really weird screwed up state... I'm finding out way more than I wanted to know.

No wonder McCain wants to cancel the VP debates. Now we know why she hasn't been allowed to do any real interviews for the last month. She's even dumber and more inept than Dan Quayle was, and that is not easy.

Ehh, all right. I'll take two points, ah, two flats, and a packet of gravel.

She is so far in over her head, it's positively shocking. And someone put her there. If I were her, I'd be pissed at that person for making a fool out of me.

All that said, she could've said "no," of course.

But holy shit, that was unbelievable.

Of all of these wonderful comments, this one made me laugh the hardest.

Talk about a moose in the headlights!

And @71, you exist in a pathetic little fantasy world.

Couric's contempt for this twit is oozing out of her pores. It's hilarious.

"What are the pros and cons, do you think?" Trying to force her off-script. Beautiful.

Don't get me wrong. I still think this is Obama's race to lose. But we can't depend on the failings of Sarah Palin to win this for us.

Of course, our current president makes Nixon look like an altar boy. At least Tricky Dick was a self-made man, and actually earned his degrees!

Please.

Palin just seemed nervous.

Bottom line, Faced with hardcore liberal bullshit journalism. She did Ok. Mostly in the fact that she didn't punch the bitch out.

I'm so tired of watching liberal journalists play softball with Obama and go out of thier way to try and make McCain look bad! It's crap and somebody needs to step up and call them on it!
