McCain-Palin Aide: A News Conference ????
Wolf Blitzer asks McCain aide Nicole Wallace when Sarah Palin is going to get in front of news reporters at a regular press conference and answer questions.
Wallace acts as if she's never heard of such a thing.
"When is she gonna do what? Have a news conference?"
Watch it, AFTER THE JUMP...

How do these Palin supports get to be so delusional?

Yet again, Wolf Blitzer does a bang-up job of following up misdirection with hard questions. (please read with heavy sarcasm!)
He lets Wallace spin her spin unchecked, and then grovels to invite Palin on the show. Blitzer is such a douche.

Shouldn't Blitzer's next question have been, "Can you tell me which major newspapers and networks that she has been on since her CBS interview?"
While Palin is a joke, she's also a great threat. She doesn't seem to understand that the press are the representatives of the people.
We have a right to ask questions through the proxy of the media.
When she said that Couric "annoyed" her because she wouldn't let Palin say what she wanted, it becomes clear that Palin sees the press as a lap dog, not as, well, a pit bull.

Oh, she's busy talking to her pre-screened supporters, and inciting thuggish violence. Otherwise, I'm sure she'd LOVE to talk to the press and answer questions. Just as soon as she finds someone to kill Barack Obama. This Nicolle Wallace is so contemptible. A what?? A what? A press conference? What a hag.

Notice how she's dropping her "g"s, just like Sarah!
@DAVID EHRENSTEIN: I find your continued use of "cunt" as offensive, misogynistic and puerile. "The Boys in the Band" is so 20th century.

You forgot the "Harummpf!"

Oh my God. How much more arrogant can these people get? i honestly don't know how Nicole Wallace can look at herself in a mirror at night and think she is an honorable person. But that is okay because, mark my words, on November 4th Barack Obama will win the election by a landslide!!!!!

Yes, b****, a NEWS conference. That's what he said, a NEWS conference.
Kinda like going on the (No)Fax network, but with real reporters asking real questions and demanding real answers.
Oh, well - no wonder she didn't know what a news conference is!!
BTW - "The Boys in the Band" may be "so 20th century", but a cunt like Sarah Palin is "so 18th century". I'd rather live in the former, given my choice.

She'll be happy to talk about all of Obama's mistakes? That about sums it up; she only wants a captive audience that wants to be spoon fed the rhetoric and garbage.
Interesting that all of the news outlets are talking about how vile the remaining audiences are at any of the McCain-Palin rally's, how violent what's left is. Nice base.
I expect the N*** word to start flying from the next round of rallys.

I agree with GAY AS LIFE.
Wolf Blitzer is a cunt! (Sorry David R.)
Posted by: soulbrotha | Oct 8, 2008 1:07:39 PM
Rad, the N word has already been used. At a rally yesterday with Palin a black photographer was shoved aside and told to "sit down boy"... Palin heard the attack and ignored it. There were also chants to "kill him" directed at Obama during Palin's rally and she ignored those also.
Posted by: wayne | Oct 8, 2008 1:18:30 PM
...and Sarah and John just smile and nod.

The Media has to be weak and soft with the candidates just in case that candidate wins. Should Wolf pin this gal down and demand answers and McCain win, Wolf would not be allowed to interview his own mother.

This is the same um, woman, who faked a "who's Frank Rich?" when asked if she had any comments on a scathing commentary Rich wrote for the Sunday NYTimes two weeks ago. She is a really sleazy, slimy, disgusting hack.

@Gay as Life:
As much as I love to hate Wolf "they're so poor, and they're so black" Blitzer, I was pleasantly surprised to see him drill Wallace for suggesting that Obama is going to raise taxes. In this interview, Wolf actually yelled over her that Obama is only going to raise taxes on people making over $250K.
Posted by: RP | Oct 8, 2008 2:42:15 PM
Sorry David R., but personally, I find that cunt Sarah Palin's remarks regarding Obama's alleged terrorist ties to be borderline racist, offensive and puerile.

And I'm proud to say that on most days, I feel very cunty, indeed.
Posted by: banjiboi | Oct 8, 2008 3:00:08 PM
Maybe BANJIBOY -- but can't we all agree on a word that describes her shortcomings without her gender? Non gender-specific descriptors like
MORON
ASSHOLE
FOOL
DANGEROUS MORON ASSHOLE FOOL
?

@Strepsi
In most cases, yes. But that's just the way I feel about race-baiting hate-mongers. Male or female.
