Palin's next interview to be with Sean Hannity

[Brittain33]

But I guess we'll just have to settle for disciplined campaigning instead of an amusing trainwreck.  Awwww. 

Which do you consider last night's interview? The issue is, the VP shouldn't be a potential trainwreck.

She's a smashing success at reading prepared speeches to crowds.

just wait until the vp debate.

Everyone knows that the debates are total jokes. The League Of Women Voters refuses to sponsor such trash any more, and the winner is determined by who makes the fewest sighs or acts the least intellectual.

In case you haven't noticed "sweetie", the election is about 8 weeks away. Is she planning on doing anymore serious interviews? I think we can both agree Hannity is a hack and will ask her nothing of substance. Will she go on meet the press and the other morning shows? My guess would be no and the American people will not give a flying f**k because they don't watch those shows anyways. She is pretty and that is all that matters. She sure has my vote!!!!!!

If McCain maintains a lead, she won't do more than a handful of interviews. They wouldn't have done this one, except they felt they had to. If he starts to slip, the press is going to turn on them for their Rose Garden (Pine Grove?) strategy and she'll have to do some. She should--the more she does, the better she'll get at them. Clearly intensive studying with Schmidt is no substitute for actual interviews.

It scared me how she had no clue what the Bush doctrine was. It's fine if she goes for a couple of practice laps with the hacks at fox but she better do a lot of serious interviews in the stretch. I doubt she will and I doubt people will care. Makes me feel so great about humanity....not.

The press is clearly eager to redeem itself after getting rolled by the Bush campaigns in two successive elections. I think the shameless lying we've seen this week, repeated many times even after fact-checking, really irks them. They like the illusion that what they does resonates with the campaigns, even if the voters don't care. To be willfully disregarded by a campaign is an insult.

Thanks for the laugh on the "sweetie" thing.  Yes, I do think she'll do some more traditional interviews than Charlie and that hack Hannity, but you're right no one will probably care much either way. It's McCain v. Obama, but for some reason the "angry left"  (and I'm not referring to you so don't take it personal) sees it as Palin v. Obama.

What campaign would be most resembling a trainwreck today Mr. Moderate?  

Well, I was going to comment that Joe Biden probably should have been taken off the circuit for a few days to give him coaching.  Maybe that way he wouldn't have sailed off message by calling Sarah Palin "good looking," that Sarah Palin is "qualified to be vice president," and that Hillary Clinton would be a better Vice President than he was.  (Whoops.)

Last night's interview was far more good than bad, though the press seemed to focus on that "war with Russia" bit.  (Odd, considering that Team Obama wants Georgia to join NATO, too.)  Another case where you'll get out of it what you went into the interview hoping to get out of it.

Uh, Obama's pretty, uh, good, uh, at reading, uh uh, speeches, uh, off of, uh uh uh... teleprompters too, uh...

That might be a reason for the left to vote for Palin, uh, I mean McCain.  The left hates the Bush Doctrine.
