Chris Wallace on Palin Interview: First Time I Ever Thought ‘This Women Is A Serious Candidate’
MediaIte ^ | 6.5.11 | Matt Schneider

Posted on 06/05/2011 12:13:24 PM PDT by rface

After interviewing Sarah Palin, Chris Wallace talked about her with his panel of guests and revealed that he was very impressed with her appearance. Unlike previous times when he interviewed her, Wallace noticed “this wasn’t just ‘you betcha’ – she was pretty sharp on the issues.”

Wallace was eager to see if anyone else agreed with his review of Palin’s interview:

“I thought she was a boffo performance today. It was the first time that I ever saw her and thought ‘this woman is a serious – if she decides to run – candidate for President. And a serious possibility to be President.’”

Kimberly Strassel’s either has never seen her on TV or just decided to repeat what she’s heard. Neither possibility lends her opinions any credence.

Like most anti-Palinoids here on FR, never read her growing archive of lucid and authoritative position papers.

Order a pizza! She talked nicely about your guy! Go back to his threads to support him.

She’s very sharp and she does do her homework. Just as she hid her beauty behind her glasses so people would take her seriously, she hid her intellect behind her folksiness. It’s what worked for connecting with people in Alaska.

But she’s addressing the broader country now, and that more serious, executive demeanor suits her well in more formal interviews.

I believe the common touch and the executive seriousness are both aspects or facets of who she is. Looks like she’ll use them both well in campaigning and governing.

PS I know she’s had a foreign policy advisor for a couple of years now, and I expect she’s been schooling herself there as well. That befits a guv moving up to the presidency, and knowing her I imagine she’s really dug in on it.

All these guys, instead of eating crow as she continues to prove her depth and mastery, will simply talk about how she has ‘grown’ and developed into a serious presidential candidate.

I’m afraid that will have to be good enough for us.

Yeah, wasn't it great for the smarty-pants, Chris, be affected as all men are in her presence?

He realized she IS serious, serious indeed and beautiful, charming and ultra-feminine to boot!

When he asked about the "no need to have her and Michelle Bachmann in the race as the "appeal to the same constituency and she pointed out but a few differences (though I'm certain that they are friendly, if not friends.)

Watch those "fems" go nuts (not only on the show but every else.)

Hope Chris doesn't get his, eh talking to when he gets home (for that soup, Sarah mentioned that too to show she DID watch his show.)

If Palin gets the nomination, she needs someone like him. He reminds me of Dick Cheney.

Where? What shows you that she isn’t thinking about running right now?

For some reason FOX is becoming very anti Palin. They do the same during the weekdays with the All Star panel.

It is because she would not allow Roger Ailes to be her puppet master. They are trying to get her to resign and hurt her by bashing her. Ailes having to fire her is tantamount to a victory by Plain.

Reagan never spoke like that. He was very polished and never would make a screw up like not knowing about Paul Revere. Sarah is good, but not that good...

They may also be trying to look as though they are NOT supporting her in any political ambitions. The Democrat-media complex will not buy it, but I believe that is what they are trying to put forward.

It’s perfect for addressing some crowds but not of the airwaves and not for some locations.

Sarah Palin Stands By Her Correct Historical Account of Paul Revere’s Ride

Sorry libs.

Sarah Palin stood by her correct historical account of Paul Revere’s ride(s) on FOX News Sunday.

For those of you who are unschooled, Paul Revere warned the American militias and the British troops during his infamous rides... by jackohoft

Ah, Huey . . .

My maiden name was Long. I had fun in Louisiana -- even though I said "no relation," nobody believed me.

I’ve noticed she has changed her speaking pattern to sound more professional, less folksy. I always thought it was holding her back

I mentioned that months ago and was criticized for it, but I noticed the same thing. She sounded reasonable.

However, she will be pounded for her incomplete and unclear statement regarding Paul Revere. Mike didn't press it. Since they both work for FOX, I understand that, but eventually, she will have to go on the other networks.

It's there she will sink or swim.

Her negatives are all made up Journ-o-list/Rove Republican lies, smears and deliberate misrepresentations of things she’s said or done.

cool...it's a free country, don't listen. BTW, and your candidate is---?

Oregon Tide LOVES Donald Trump. Trump's Newt-like lies about the Ryan plan gives Oregon Tide the happy chills.

To each their own.
