Wow. This goes beyond being bad at interviews - some people that are bad or nervous at interviews at least are able to convey that they are honest, competent, and thoughtful people. None of that comes across.Michael wrote:Check out Palin's interview with Katie Couric:

She's horrible. I can't believe she might be president one day.

When you see a chance, you jump in and toss a harpoon.
When the sledding gets rough, you complain and bail.
Stay.
Toss your darts, but take your lumps, too.
I'm not tucking and running. I'm just taking the high road. This is clearly a liberal love fest. What exactly is the point of sticking around? To get this thread locked? To get people banned? To get people totally hating me (the ones that don't already)? I mean, I've actually played nice and held a ton back. And anything I say gets pounced on, and frankly, I don't see the point.
I can take my lumps. That's not a concern to me. Nothing has been said to me or about me that will make me lose one ounce of sleep.
But nobody is here to debate. If I chime in on anything, then it just becomes one big argument. Look at every single post made today and give me one reason I should even bother to continue with this thread. Look at all of the mudslinging and hypocrisy from just today. Sure, there's some legit stuff, but I most isn't, and if anyone from the opposite side said anything similar about Obama, then they'd get called out so quickly. I should know. Yet those same people are doing it now.
I've got much better ways to spend my time than to continue with this crap.

You've been threatening to leave for about 50 pages or so now. Either take off for good or quit with the empty "threat".

Re: Obama/Biden vs. Palin/McCain: The Thread
OK, I just watched the Couric/Palin interview in its entirety. It really was embarrassing. You or I could have done a better job. She's obviously been well briefed in energy, but she knows nothing about the US economy or foreign affairs. I'm looking forward to the VP debate. She's going to get creamed. Executive experience, hah!

Re: Obama/Biden vs. Palin/McCain: The Thread
It's pretty amazing that someone could make it all the way to governor of a state and have embarassingly little knowledge of these kinds of issues. Only in Alaska, I suppose. Even if you don't know the answer, you should have enough of a base of knowledge to come up with some sort of plausible answer on the fly.planet pujolsian wrote:OK, I just watched the Couric/Palin interview in its entirety.
