It was a local affiliate, first of all. What is she supposed to do, keep looking over her shoulder all the time and act paranoid? She is the governor of Alaska who just stepped off the national stage. Is she supposed to refuse every interview now? You’re just not being realistic. It is tradition for her to pardon a turkey.
How about not doing an interview in front of that particular spot? How about not doing an interview right in front of a turkey killer (or whatever the hell that thing is called) right after pardoning a turkey? Maybe do the interview, oh I don’t know, any place else that has a different backdrop. Just throwing it out there.
It is not only the liberal media out after Gov. Palin but the Third Party Loons on this thread
