Please stop writing about this person. She was a nobody and has become one again. She is no longer news.

plz, plz, plz.

"I guess, kind of play even the campaigning media game that is played in just repeating, perhaps, memorized lines in a -- in an interview, that's not me..."

Right.

Repeating memorized lines is all Palin did throughout the campaign. It was when she strayed from those lines that she got herself in trouble. It was a lose-lose situation.

What else could she possible mean by "memorized lines"? Is it too much to expect our VP to "memorize" various facts about, say, the current world political structure? I mean, she was able to remember the word "fungible".

Ignorance is bliss, I guess.

stop feeding it and it will go away. Stop treating her like she matters and she will go away.

Politician's are famous for not answering the question asked. Especially if they don't have a good answer for the original question. If she'd given an answer to the question asked, it would have been "nothing".

I respectfully disagree with the other posters who want less electrons spilled on Palin. Please keep her and her nonsensical statements and views in the news so that the electorate never forgets how much of an incompetent clown she is. If we forget that, she just might get taken seriously at some point.

....will tell you to be careful not to UNDERESTIMATE Sarah! I think it might be time to tell those who find themselves ga-ga over the governor of Alaska to stop OVERESTIMATING her. She may say the right things to get the Republican base all excited, but my God, she's just not that bright.

And, you know, perhaps, that annoyance that showed through would have led some to be annoyed with me watching the interview.

She was watching the interview? I'm confused. Which is the normal state of affairs when trying to decipher Gov. Palin's inscrutable choice of words and the order in which they go.

Luckily we figured it out soon enough. She is like one of those strippers that smiles and winks at you to distract you from the fact that she is taking all of your money with $20 lapdances. She is a con artist and the republicans never want to admit they are wrong about anything, so keep getting played suckers.

Well, I guess you do have to memorize answers when your answers are all lies and you're trying to keep them straight. And isn't it funny that her idea of knowing about the world means memorizing facts? She's mentally stuck in high school and thinks that's sufficient to govern the United States of America! I have a suggestion for the media: either expose every lie and hypocritical thing she says, or LET HER GO AWAY. You are feeding her monstrously huge ego and reinforcing her own idea that she deserves this attention.

I can't believe I spelled "psycho" wrong; that's what you get when you're in a hurry.

As War Room noted, Couric said nothing about Alaska. Palin's feeble attempt at an answer is full of defensiveness that is completely unwarranted by the question. It speaks volumes about her listening/comprehension skills (abysmal) and about the huge chip she lugs around on her shoulder. (Click my sig for the relevant 47-second-long clip.)

"I think she should keep her head down, work really hard and learn about governing."

It may sting, but its true. And really the only way that SP can move forward.

Her supporters still love her, so I agree with the poster who says we need to keep people aware of why she is not qualified for the national political scene.

That said, the MSM sure is letting her say all kinds of things without holding her accountable for what is a stretch and what is patently false.

And, as an aside... a friend asked me recently what sorts of questions he should be prepared to answer in an interview. I said, "They will probably ask you what you read to get industry news." I was right about that... and the job, incidentally, was to be a game tester! If she really thinks "what do you read" is an unfair question, then she wouldn't even be qualified to get a job playing video games.

Thanks for the clip Crunchy Frog.

What it actually shows is that it wasn't Couric who suggested that Alaska was an intellectual wilderness, but Palin.

Probably what Palin didn't want to say was that most of her world view was derived from television and especially from Fox News.

If she was honestly annoyed by that question, it only shows that, (a), she is irrationally defensive about where she lives and therefore could not be expected to govern a diverse nation with even-handedness, and (b) she is ignorant and uncurious about the kinds of questions candidates are commonly asked in interviews, and likely has not followed national campaigns in the past. Keep digging that hole, lady.

"what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read?"

oh, so now she "reads the same things" I do? really; Mother Jones, Grassroots Motorsports, and the Hartford Courant? I am surprised.

Have you ever seen those comedians that ostensibly sound like they are making sense, but you quickly realize that they are talking complete gibberish? I watched the Greta interview with my mouth hanging open. Palin goes on and on and doesn't make one speck of sense. It's highly entertaining, until one remembers that a large portion of the electorate thinks she could and should be president of the United States.

Why? Because...

1) This whole "winning" thing still feels so new to me, so to see the personification of "loser" keep rearing her head on every TV station is a great reminder how Obama beat those two like they stole something.

2) If she is serious about 2012 -- which I am sure she is -- it helps to keep on reminding people how nightmarish a choice she would have been. Let's face it, the longer you linger in the spotlight, the harder it is to prove that Palin 2.0 in 2010 is different from Palin 1.0 in 2008.
