Ready To Lead On Day WhoTheFuckKnows

From Jed Report:

Forget whether or not Sarah Palin is ready to be president. She's not even ready to be a candidate for vice president!

Howard Fineman reports a top McCain adviser tells him that Palin is going to be taking a "timeout" from the campaign trail through the middle of next week. According to Fineman, Palin will use the time to "begin the education of Sarah Palin." Apparently, the excuse will be that she needs to attend to personal business, including seeing her son off to Iraq.

Fineman says they want to make sure she understands John McCain's positions on issues and the issues she is going to need to deal with as a vice presidential candidate. Most notably, she won't be doing any substantial media interviews until she returns to the trail, which could be at least as late as next Wednesday.

I think Karl Rove will probably let Palin do an interview eventually, but it'll most likely be a FoxNews interview. I can't imagine that she'll be allowed to do a legitimate interview or a full blown press conference, because that would mean she'd have to answer some tough questions, such as:

1. How old do you think the Earth is?

2. When did you come to the conclusion that global warming is a hoax?

3. Isn't it true that you were for the Bridge to Nowhere before you were against it?

4. What's your relationship with the Alaskan Independence Party, that America-hating secessionist group up in your state?

5. What particular books do you want banned?

6. Do you stand by your statement that the U. S. sent troops to fight in Iraq because it was a task from God?

I left out any queries on the whole TrooperGate Scandal because I doubt she'd be able to answer such questions given that it is an ongoing investigation (man, that has a familiar ring to it, doesn't it?).
