The VP candidate who chose the vow of silence rather than submit to those pesky press questions, can't seem to stop talking long enough to realize....
....the more she talks, the more Palin reassures cross-over Republican voters that they indeed chose wisely, making the right decision by voting Obama.
Matt Lauer appears positively pained during his interview of Mrs. Palin, perhaps in attempt to keep a straight face.
LAUER: What was the biggest misconception that you would have loved to have corrected at the time?
S. PALIN: It started off with the rumors, the speculation, even in mainstream media, that Trig wasn’t actually my child, that Trig was somebody else’s child and I faked a pregnancy. That was absolutely ridiculous. And it took days for that false allegation (inaudible) be corrected.
And then rumors right off the bat, too, that, you know, I was some -- some wacko. That as city manager I tried to ban the books in our local library, and they listed the books that supposedly I tried to ban, books like “Harry Potter” that hadn’t even been written when I was the mayor and the manager. And things like that, that so easily could have been corrected if -- if reporters would have done their job.
Per Andrew Sullivan, The Daily Dish:
For the record, some Harry Potter books had been written when she was mayor and manager. This is not open to factual dispute (why did Lauer not correct her?)......
That's easy to figure out. Much more of a story when convolution is allowed to mature and grow.
Misery enjoys company. Read more about Lauer's interview of the Alaskan governor here.
