<quote> palin said she didnt care if she was a media favorite. good for her. Im tired of all the talking heads asking the same question 10 different ways to make there twisted view. I dont need the enquirer giving me any "facts". I dont care if the jet was "sold" on e-bay or not. it was sold and thats a good point.<quote>

You're assuming that the audience for interviews or journalists' questions are the interviewers/questioners themselves. Don't you find that strange? The interviewers are, or should be anyway, facilitators between the politicians and the viewer. Personally, I don't care what the pundits say. I want to hear what the politicians say with their own mouths. I disregard the analysis for the most part.

I wish some huge company with hundreds of thousands of workers, would hire me in some real high paying Vice President level position and not be concerned that I have only two years of experience. Company Officials will send me to school for a few weeks and teach me everything I need to know to become a Vice President. If anyone complained they would be told that because I am a woman it would be sexist to have concerns and they would also point to the good ability I have to make speeches (I learned through Toastmasters)!

LOL, if she is not ready for interviews, then how the hell is she ready to be VP?
She can't. They may never let her do interviews, and if she gets in the White House don't expect that they will let the little woman do anything. McCain is a control freak, and so she will be hushed, but being a pitbull he may have more than he barganed for.
