    Heh.... First, he couldn't define what 'the Bush Doctrine' was when he asked the question.
    "... the Bush doctrine, as I understand it,..."

    She did an excellent job of answering the questions.

    You will NEVER see Obama have to answer questions like she's having too.
    She's undergone more scrutiny in two weeks than Obama has in 2 years.

    Does Obama think we have the right to go into Pakistan to kill Bin Laden without their permission?
    Does Obama really have the experience to be president? Seriously. He does NOT.

    What national security credentials does Obama have? Literally, NONE.
    National Security is a lot more than voting for a non-binding resolution on the senate floor.

    You get my point. He'll never be asked anything but softball questions from the liberal press. And she literally does have more executive experience than Obama AND Biden combined.

    Ouch... I had no idea what the Bush doctrine was, but Charlie was obviously doing this with the intent of getting the reaction he got. I'm hoping he puts the same level of grilling on Obama and Biden, but I highly doubt he will.

    That kind of political speak where they NEVER answer the question is done on both sides, all the time. For an example of Obama doing it, watch the interview with Rick Warren when the abortion issue comes up. He never answers the question, but instead gives a bunch of political speak around it.

    Frankly if Charlie Gibson and every other reporter were to do this to all the politicians it would be fantastic, but I have a feeling he might be a little softer on the dems.

    That's what I have a problem with. However when he does get a hard question, he will do exactly what she did and wag the dog, however I highly doubt they'll call him out like Gibson did right there. "I'm sorry. You said a lot of words, but I'm not sure you answered the question."

    I'll make a 1 year sig bet right now that we will never see Gibson use that same tactic on Obama. Never.

    Maybe because we have eight weeks to understand where she stands, not two years.

    Yes he does:
    "There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again. It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al-Qaida leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won't act, we will." -Barack Obama, Aug. 2007

    Totally subjective. Seriously. Since if you're talking years of public service, he has more than Bush had--in addition to being a natural-born citizen, over 35, and has been a permanent resident in the United States for at least fourteen years.

    And she is not a candidate for chief executive. McCain, however, is and has zero executive experience for someone wanting to become chief executive. Furthermore, you won't find anywhere in the Constitution that you have to be a governor or mayor before you can become president.

I don't see how this question was a softball or how the answer was complete dance around the issue (though the end was). She can't simply give beauty pageant answers when grilled like this though, or she will cost the pubs this election.

    Palin Links Iraq to Sept. 11 In Talk to Troops in Alaska

    FORT WAINWRIGHT, Alaska, Sept. 11 -- Gov. Sarah Palin linked the war in Iraq with the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, telling an Iraq-bound brigade of soldiers that included her son that they would "defend the innocent from the enemies who planned and carried out and rejoiced in the death of thousands of Americans."

    The idea that the Iraqi government under Saddam Hussein helped al-Qaeda plan the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, a view once promoted by Bush administration officials, has since been rejected even by the president himself. But it is widely agreed that militants allied with al-Qaeda have taken root in Iraq since the U.S.-led invasion.

    Re: Wanna see a "Moose in the headlights?"

    Just curious.

    Does anyone really give a **** about how much executive experience someone has had? It's pretty much a goddamn crap-shoot whether someone with "executive experience" is actually worth a damn.

    I mean, W has more executive experience than any of the folks in this race, and for all that experience, he's not worth a pile of dog **** when it comes to the stuff that executives are supposed to be good at.

    Sounded to me like she tactfully said "yes", we have a right to defend ourselves, if we determine a strike in another country is needed to do that. I don't see how you tabbed her answer as "beauty pageant".
    Put a lid on it! Kiss it goodbye. We gave it away, and apparently thought it made sense to do so.

    Re: Wanna see a "Moose in the headlights?"

    She's smart. She'll have the talking points down soon.

    But I don't know about her thinking on her feet in a debate.
    Not that I want to elect the best (master) debater, but it could be fun to watch.

    I wonder if they're actually trying to help her sound more moderate because she is pretty far to the right of McCain. The base is energized and now it's time to appeal to middle America.

    This year, I think, was the year the Dems should have had a Southerner on the ballot. Would have made things more interesting.

    JSM will probably offer BHO a cabinet post.

    Three more weeks and we'll know for sure the GOP is going to prevail.

    Re: Wanna see a "Moose in the headlights?"

    She did an excellent job of answering the questions.
    If by excellent job you mean "answered in slogans" then yeah, she was stellar.

    She better brush up on foreign policy or Biden will rip her a new one.

    Rip her a new one? What a sexist thing to say!!
