....why the McCain Campaign would send Governor Palin to let Perky (knowing exactly who and what she is) do her stuff is beyond me......
You win wars by fighting. This interview was an engagement, a battle hardening experience. No one watches CBS.
On one hand, it doesn’t matter if nobody watches CBS if the cable news outlets are then all given the tape and play it as news, with even more spin than the original.
On the other, if she couldn’t handle an interview she wouldn’t be on the ticket anyway.
I will say that allowing Charlie to get away with it was bad, but not taking measures to keep it from happening with Kati is just foolish. I’d include a couple of requirements regarding editing and other things if they want access to a candidate.
