Here were some of the Daily Kos blog comments on Palin's performance:
http://www.dailykos.com/Some blog comments on Palin’s interview with Charlie Gibson
1.
I thought Gibson was remarkably poised for not laughing in her face.
"In what respect?" That's not even a valid delaying question. There's no other "respect" in which the question can be cast! Do you agree with the doctrine or not? [Palin's response to the question of whether she agreed with the Bush Doctrine was "in what respect?"]
You can't parse that question. You can shade your answer, but you can't parse the question. Gibson was nearly struck dumb by how easily and quickly she revealed her total ignorance.
Last week she didn't know what the VP did all day. This week, she doesn't know what the President has been doing for eight years.
"In what respect, Charlie?"
I haven't seen a newscaster so dumbfounded by a question since "What's the frequency, Kenneth?"

Although it feels good to go after Palin, we should probably be focusing on old man mcCane. That's who Obama is running against.

This speaks volumes about his judgement and his commitment to winning vs commitment to his country.

Palin's lack of qualifications underscores McCain's lack of judgement. They go hand in hand.
