Could the answer be that Palin doesn't go to these talk shows because they are leftist liberal scum?

[Steely Tom]

Uhh... maybe because she’s not an idiot?

[pray4liberty]

Why face the modern-day equivalent of the Inquisition, or a high-tech lynching?

A few weeks of being the media's punching bag is quite enough. Politicians deserve to be questioned, sure; but to expect them to be a glutton for punishment is going way too far.

Because once burned already? It’s not likely she would sway any pink liberals going on the msm so why not target Joe’s peers.

I think the argument the liberals are making against Palin is laughingly rediculous. If this was a race between Obama and Palin instead of Obama and McCain/Palin, I have a sneaky feeling that Obama would be having a harder time of it now.

[Malesherbes]

Yeah, well who doesn’t B.O. go on Hannity and answer some questions that he doesn’t get from the BObot interviewers?

[plain talk]

make no secret that I'm voting for Obama because I feel he'd make a better president than McCain would. However, I feel that McCain is qualified to be president, too. But the prospect of Palin running this country really scares me.

Qualified - too? Incredible statement since Obama is the least qualified candidate of a major party in modern history. Palin has had executive experience which neither Obama, McCain or Biden have had. However McCain has led men in battle. Obama and Biden which have never run anything except their mouths.

To be honest Palin is not used to hostile questions from the press. Give her time and she will shovel the bullchit with the rest of them.

Does the right-wing media tell Joe Biden where, and on what medium, he should campaign?

Didn’t think so.

[Non-Sequitur]

Could the answer be that Palin doesn't go to these talk shows because they are leftist liberal scum?

Or is it because they ask hard questions like explain the Bush doctrine or what sources do you read for your news or name a Supreme Court case other than Roe v. Wade?

[ovrtaxt]

Stupid question, Dave. I mean really.

[RichInOC]

I gather that Sarah and the McCain/Palin campaign have weighed having Sarah go on SNL with Josh Brolin (coming off his tour de farce role in Ollie Stone’s “W.”), Alec Baldwin (enough said), and a cast and writing staff of snarky leftists, against having her go on with any of the Sunday morning panels...and came to the conclusion that she’d get a fairer shake on SNL.

[papersonusa]

Maybe if they exhibited some effort at being journalists rather than parroting the trash from the left-wing propagandists? (even Fox news is losing it)
