From here:

Of concern to McCain's campaign, however, is a remaining and still-undisclosed clip from Palin's interview with Couric last week that has the political world buzzing.

The Palin aide, after first noting how "infuriating" it was for CBS to purportedly leak word about the gaffe, revealed that it came in response to a question about Supreme Court decisions.

After noting Roe vs. Wade, Palin was apparently unable to discuss any major court cases.

There was no verbal fumbling with this particular question as there was with some others, the aide said, but rather silence.


Need video of this yesterday. Oh, jeez.

So, I just saw Katie asking Sarah Palin about how she gets her news, what newspapers she reads and she says, "All of them." Katie asks for a specific one, and Sarah just repeats, "Any of them. All of them."

WTF? You can't name ONE FREAKIN' NEWSPAPER?? Just say "The Times" and you could mean either New York or London. For fuck's sake.

... and she just threw out the "One of my best friends is gay" card.

I think I have a bingo.

Wow. I'm surprised she has time to do any work if she's reading all the major American and European newspapers every day.

You know what I think it was? Remember way back when when George Bush said something like, "Oh, I don't really read newspapers," and people thrashed him for it? I think maybe she had that in her brain when Katie asked, and didn't want to make the obviously wrong answer, and completely overcompensated.

It's just ... she couldn't have said the Wasilla Frontiersman? The Juneau Empire? I mean, hell, if I leaned out my front door right now and grabbed the first person to walk past on the sidewalk, they could at least name the Forest City News and the Scranton Times-Tribune.

I mean, for fuck's sake.
