Palin ain’t afraida no hosts!
ByMemo to the media: Sarah Palin isn’t afraid of you. For days the MSM and the Obama campaign have complained that Sarah Palin needs to do the talk show tour. She needs to be properly vetted. No doubt they’re hoping she’ll say something really, really stupid like “That’s above my pay grade.” Joe Biden’s campaign manager took a jab at Governor Palin.
Reporters covering Biden gave the candidate a cardboard cutout of McCain, and Biden spokesman David Wade promptly used the gag to take a poke at Palin.
“You realize you could’ve made history if you’d found a cardboard cut-out of Governor Palin,” Wade said. “That’s the closest she would’ve been to taking tough questions from the national media since she was selected.” “Then again, I guess the Republicans are continuing their recent history of keeping their vice-presidential picks in secure, undisclosed locations,” he added, in reference to Vice President Dick Cheney’s use of an “undisclosed location” after the Sept. 11 attacks. “Yet another way that McCain-Palin is more of the same.”
In fact, Sarah Palin has appeared several times with Larry Kudlow, but I don’t see the press showing any of those interviews. Perhaps because there are no major gaffes to highlight. The only thing they point out is that she once said she didn’t think she would like being vice president, or something like that.
Well, MSM, you don’t have to wait much longer to see an interview with the Governor. ABC News has confirmed that Sarah Palin will sit for an interveiw with Charles Gibson. This will be her first since the announcement that she will be John McCain’s running mate.
Something tells me she isn’t afraid.

I think it’s good that they are not putting her out there too soon. She has the right to a few days with McCain. With a new employee, whether an officer or a desk minder, you don’t speak on behalf of the company until you learn the company policies.
BTW, she might also gaffe by referring to “her Muslim faith.” I agree with you, all this fuss is just hype. The MSM thinks they are so important. Their outrage at not having time to vet Palin? Laughable!

She isn’t afraid and she never was–and if the media would treat her fairly (not help her the way they do obama and mitchelle) she would have done interviews the first day–it is no simply interview–everyone in the democratic party and from the rest of the media will go through every word and line to find something to BLAST her with–something that indicates she is NOT READY —obama says 58 states and his muslim faith and there is no major coverage–mccain said he didn’t know how many houses his wife had(his father-in-law left them all to her) and it becomes media headlines for 5 days—then the two faced so and sos they are have the nerve to say “when will she agree to be interviewed” God–the convention bounce CAME BECAUSE THE MSM COULDN’T TWIST AND FILTER AND DISTORT WHAT THE REPUBLICANS HAD TO SAY—and the one thing that came across from all the speakers and the delegates that were listening WAS UTTER SINCERITY!!!! –the male delegates tightened up their faces because they were embarrassed to shed tears in public–those people had sat for 12 hours a day and heard stuff they have heard before yet they were deeply moved —that SINCERITY and LOVE OF COUNTRY came across –
and now spineless obama is saying that he won’t immediately get rid of Bush’s tax cuts—pathetic–it reminds me of the old slogan–if you stand for nothing you’ll fall for anything–he has thrown so many people under the bus it is embarrassing to watch and he say anything that he thinks will help get him elected–he has yet to figure out the reason people are suspicious of him is that he has hidden his extreme left beliefs and done the opposite of straight talk–he thinks the reason the republicans have had a bounce is that they have managed their image better than him and his camp–actually they have gotten the facts out about themselves and americans LIKE THEM
Olberman @ Matthews are finally off MSNBC news. Next, how can we get rid of that scumbag Olberman on Sun Night Football. We can watch ESPN until the game begins, and at halftime hit the mute button or go to Fox News, go to the bathroom, prepare food, take a walk, or anything but see him or hear him.
