One More Palin Couric Video: This One Is Not Amusing

TW: It was one thing for Palin to claim foreign policy experience based on the ridiculous basis that Alaska is next to Russia and sound incompetent trying to sell the concept. It is another thing entirely to hear her incoherently and irresponsibly attempt to articulate how the US and Israel should interact in matters potentially involving nuclear weapons.

I heard Republican strategist Ed Rollins tonight opine in reaction to the Couric interviews that Palin had lost the confidence she displayed initially in Minneapolis. I agree she has lost confidence but in MN Palin was like the young athlete brashly taking the reins not knowing any better. She was also merely making campaign speeches. Now that she is being asked to play in the big leagues after having let the enormity of what she is meant to be doing sink in, things are different, very different. She is in over her head, for that John McCain is to blame.

what a difference a couple weeks make. Nobody is paying attention to her now which is the only bright spot for Mccain who keeps digging himself deeper and deeper and has looked very un-presidential during this crisis. Flip Flopping like a fish out of water. I now agree with Obama's decision to head to Oxford and let McCain dig himself deeper as he clearly doesn't have a clue what to do as the House Republicans are going to do whatever it takes to make sure they get elected even meaning stalling this bailout.

Should be an interesting 12 hours
