Palin's First Interview, page 1

Palin to Sit Down with ABC New's Charlie Gibson

It will be an exciting interview for the voters, that's for sure. I wonder how it will go. Will Gibson be easy on her? Will she show that she knows what she's getting into? Will she appear sarcastic and mocking?

ABC News did not release details of when the interview would take place.

For now, according to Obama insiders, the Obama campaign, fearing a backlash, will not ask surrogates including Hillary Clinton to launch an all-out bashing of Palin. Instead, the Obama campaign will aim its heaviest artillery at McCain while waiting and hoping that Sarah Palin makes a mistake.

Palin will sit down for multiple interviews with Gibson in Alaska over two days, most likely Thursday and Friday, said McCain adviser Mark Salter.

I would expect a cordial, productive interview. For one, Gibson is typically fair, but also, I'm sure that he knows if he goes out of his way to embarass her, that it will be his only interview with her and perhaps his network's as well. He won't do that.

As for Palin, I definitely would not expect her to be sarcastic or mocking and I don't really think she has been. Those much-deserved jabs she threw at the media were directly a result of the attacks on her family and were her way of saying 'back off'. I would expect a more typical interview with Sarah Palin (and there are tons of them online for comparison), where she has a very relaxed, engaging and personable conversational style. She'll handle it just fine.

I wonder if she will discuss the success of the Bush presidency, since the Iraq War is "God's work".
