"Are you qualified to be Vice President...I mean are you really really qualified...Did you study in your civics class in high school...Are you as smart as a democrat???" THAT QUESTION
It is time to remind those twits that she needs to be 35 years old, a natural born American citizen and a resident of the US for 14 years.
That is all the Constitution requires!!
If there’s anybody that knows something about body language, what is the meaning of Gibson’s non-stop ankle rolling?
What we just saw was Charlie taking a hostile stance against a Vice-Presidential nominee on the GOP ticket, and the VP nominee responded to the hostile person with consistency and confidence.
Charlie did not look well in this interview.. he came off looking like a little man, whose best attempt at intimidation was looking down his nose as he asked a question.
He couldn’t survive 15 minutes of an unedited “conversation” with the VP nominee.
3 consecutive days of poor video. It must be the Sun spots /s
Gibson’s body language is a disgrace. When she spoke of her son joining the military, Gibson looked visibly disgusted, almost shaking himself off.
It is here. She is doing great. I love the way she calls him “Charlie”. He is trying every which way to knock her out.
Ain’t gonna work, Charlie.
Maybe I’m mistaken, but isn’t the “Bush Doctrine” a media created term?
He comes across as a punk. All I can think of is Stephanoupolus helping out Obama, when he stated “his Muslim faith.” “you mean your Christian faith.” That is the MSM.
Sabotage. That way the Left can say it was heavily edited to make her look good.
Whatever. They can’t keep lowering expectations so she’ll look smarter than the top of their ticket after the debates.
Horribly condescending.
I am really surprised with Charlie Gibson. I guess he’s just another TV person who wants to use Palin to get in the spotlight of “getting her”. Really disgusting.
Just saw the first part. She is doing fine. Too many Charles references but other than that....okay.
The set up around the interview is weird. He is obviously much taller than her and he is looking down his nose at her...really weird. The tape in part is not in sync with her lips. Just really weird....
Waiting for second part of interview....
Compare today’s charlie gibson hit piece with charlie’s love fest with Barry:

Notice the difference in gibson’s attitude and the massive difference in the editing.
Again, why was gibson constantly twirling his ankle during the Palin interview, but, in a the few two-shots during the barry interview he wasn’t?
I know cats will twirl their tails when they are mad, and so will horses...well, gibson is a horse’s a&&.
If you remember the movie “Broadcast News,” there was a scene where William Hurt feigned crying after an interview was over.
And it was edited into the interview as if it was happening the very moment the person was speaking.
Well, ABC very easily could have used reaction shots of Palin during a question asked by gibson that occurred at a completely different part of the interview just to make her look bad.
In other words, the facial expression they showed could have been in response to a question that was totally different from the one we heard on the voice-over.
What a crap budget interview! One camera? Chairs so close together they were almost playing footsie because they had to get both of them in the shot. They had more of Charlie’s face than Sarah and she was the interviewie.
This seemed like a low budget Vodcast rather than a major network interview. And I cannot stand seeing Charlie Gibson with his peering over his glasses snobby looking self. It looks like she got called in to the principal’s office and it completely lacked respect of her, a Governor!!
You know, I have never paid attention to sexism before Sarah Palin, but after this I am seeing it is alive and well. I just hope the women of America are seeing who is committing it.
Sarah should have had the interview way out in the sea on a really bad rocking boat going fishing and Charles getting sea sick over the bow.
I have only seen a few clips but I thought she did fine. The pundits on tv have all said she did fine. In fact one woman on Fox said she escaped a few trap doors.
I don’t understand all the negativity on here.
Charlie needed to come off as the aggressor here as he
CANNOT allow the MSM to throw softballs and be Laissez-faire with the person to be next-in-line to the presidency.
The less fervent interviews will come, but trial by fire is the ONLY way to prepare this woman. There is no other way.
I think the Gov. came through well enough for her first interview with the wolves.
Do you have any doubt she'll be more prepared and nuanced next time?
I don't doubt it a bit.
Charley ? ABC ? NO MORE WATER BOARDING in your interviews.
