There were 2 parts to it in that half hour. I don't think they cut as much in the second part. But the first part was butchered. They must have done it in a hurry because they did a very poor job. It was very obvious. There is more to that interview tomorrow.

Sarah Palin Agrees to be Interviewed
With McCain, Obama, and Biden all on the Sunday talk shows yesterday, the Democrats began saying that Palin was afraid to be interviewed by a serious reporter. To avoid having this charge become an issue itself, the McCain campaign has backed down and agreed to let her be interviewed by ABC's Charles Gibson. Republicans are hoping for a Larry-King-like softball interview with questions like: "Do you think you have enough experience to be President if the need should arise?" Democrats are hoping for more hardball questions like: "Do you really believe that if a woman is raped she should be forced to bear her rapist's child?" The structure of the interview--taped over a period of several days--is not the way political reporters normally work because it allows the interviewee to recover from a mistake by saying: "Let's try that one again." The reporter can't afford to have the interviewee walk off the set, so he is under pressure to be nice. In an interview broadcast live, there are no holds barred.

Sarah Palin is a simple-minded person, undifferentiated in thought. And she’s mean as catsh..t. Which explains why she’s able to speak so assertively. She’ll lie without the slightest flinching. This lady is cold as marble. There is not an ounce of compassion in her.
Many think she’s intelligent. But that’s way wrong. She is great at memorizing whatever she is supposed to say (to please her audience), precisely because she is so brainless.

From the bits I have watched so far, it will play good to the public. I want to see the whole piece before I comment in detail.

I can't help but feel the editing job was intentional.
It makes her seem shrill and her answers frenetic.
WTF was that???

Tell you what, lets wait and find out how the public perceives it, since we here are all a little biased one way or the other, shall we?
Agreed?
