Why not have Katie Couric inteview Karoline Kennedy and use the same “Palin questions”?

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/09/30/eveningnews/main4490618.shtml

Couric: Gov. Palin, almost every expert says it will take about 10 years for domestic drilling to have an impact on consumers. So isn’t the notion of “drill, baby, drill” a little misleading to people who think this will automatically lower their gas prices, and quickly?

Couric: Gov. Palin, I know you’d like to see drilling take place in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. And Sen. McCain, you oppose this. You call it, quote: “one of the most pristine and beautiful parts of the world.”

Couric: You have a 72-year-old running mate - is that kind of a risky thing to say, insinuating that Joe Biden’s been around a while?

Couric: And when it comes to establishing your worldview, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this to stay informed and to understand the world?

Couric: What, specifically?

Couric: Can you name a few?

Couric: What’s your position on global warming? Do you believe it’s man-made or not?

Couric: Is it man-made, though in your view?

Couric: If a 15-year-old is raped by her father, do you believe it should be illegal for her to get an abortion, and why?

Couric: But ideally, you think it should be illegal for a girl who was raped or the victim of incest to get an abortion?

Couric: Some people have credited the morning-after pill for decreasing the number of abortions. How do you feel about the morning-after pill?

Couric: And so you don’t believe in the morning-after pill?

Couric: I’m sorry, I just want to ask you again. Do you not support or do you condone or condemn the morning-after pill.

Couric: No, that’s OK, I’m just asking you.

Couric: Do you believe evolution should be taught as an accepted scientific principle or as one of several theories?

Glad to see Katie get in there and tackle the real issues of the White House. < /BARF >

Maybe these would be good questions for a Senator. That or “How does it feel to be stepping into Massachusetts’ born RFK’s seat? What’d you think of him? When you were a girl did you dream of him or his brother Jack more?”
