I thought she did fine.

However, the structure of the questions and the manner in which they were posed made it very difficult for ANYONE to come away smelling like a rose.

She was repeatedly asked if she was ready to be VP or CIC as if it's absurd to think she really is.

Gibson then posed several "no-win" questions, such as do you sacrifice your own country's security rather than invade Pakistan without their permission, or do you allow Israel to take out Iranian nuke sites?

Say "no" and you're weak and lax on security; say "yes" and your both a warmonger and someone who doesn't care about other country's borders.

When Charlie asked if she supports the "Bush Doctrine", she correctly asked in what respect. Unfortunately, she got a bit of the "deer in the headlights" look when he simply repeated the question. Obama would NEVER get these questions.

But again...I think she did fine.

Well, that's life in the big city, sometimes your only choices are "the bad choice" and "the even worse choice."

That was the trap. A novice would have answered either yes or no. She passed.

I'm awaiting the tough one's that could put Obama into a complete state of disarray such as..."Senator Obama, when eating Neapolitan ice cream which color tends to disappears first?"

"Obama would NEVER get these questions." He would have gotten them---ahead of time. But if you watch the vid of the interview Chuck the did with him, you'll see a completely different demesanor and a LOT of softball questions. He smiled at Zero, glared at palin. Completely different interview, as we have all come to expect.

I can’t find any government doc that uses the term “Bush Doctrine.” I have some ideas of the various things it could mean.

If it’s not a term used exclusively (and probably scornfully) by the MSM, can anyone find the term in a real government document?
