A question I'd like to see Charlie Gibson ask Palin
Gibson: Gov. Palin, in your acceptance speech at the RNC you said :"What exactly is our opponent's plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he's done turning back the waters and healing the planet? The answer is to make government bigger".

What do you think today about the government taking control over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac?

Palin:... (stupid blinking at the cam)

Of course, I am not holding my breath. But she and McCain need to be exposed as hypocrites over this one. It was just 5 days ago she was against the government and now both she and McCain are all for it?

1. Gibson seems like a nice person. But, he is a Pub shill. I remember the 2004 debates. He let
Dummya rant on forever, way over the time limit, and acted like Bush was being an adorable naughty boy.

3. He's not going to ask her jack shit.
All of this 'questions' will be handed to him by Palin's handlers. The price of exclusive access is one soul.

9. Ding ding ding!
Although I would actually like to see him ask her, "So, when is the last time one of your children actually played hockey?" Just because.

6. He did
But he's never run as the anti government candidate. McCain-Palin are running on this idea that government is bad for you.

11. Excellent Question
We've been hearing about smaller government since Reagan. Even Clinton pronounced that the era of big government was over! And yet the government keeps getting bigger and bigger. And it will continue to do so under the next president. Such is the nature of inertia.

12. There will be at least 10 minutes of bs regarding capital gains taxes.
This is really the only item that Gibson is personally interested in. Very personally interested in.
