This is a joke, right? I watched the first part and even I can't believe she can be this incoherent.

More than anything, it reminds me of Dana Carvey's impression of GHW Bush. When she speaks, its just a sting of loosely related sentence fragments.

You think that's bad? Check her out on the bailout details: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=4477318n

I have great sympathy for whoever the poor schlub is that has to do the transcriptions. Can you imagine having to figure out where to put the punctuation?

Has there ever been a national politician this incoherent?

The present occupant of the White House?

Has there ever been a national politician this incoherent?

No, and the fact is that every answer is like this. How will Biden be able to respond in the VP debate when he has absolutley no idea what she just said?

This is just humiliating. Will this be the last time she sits with a reporter? Though she's still supposed to have a debate to get through somehow.

But...but...it's right there. The country that is Russia. It's next door to us, the people who live in Alaska, which is part of America. We are close to them, to the Russians. That close means we know. We just know how to watch them so they, well, we are close to them. The Russians. In their country. Next to Alaska, which is part of ours. Our country.

I can has Veep nomination too?

Biden has his hands full just trying to remember history, like when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

I personally believe that U.S. Americans have trade missions back and forth are unable to do so because, uh, some, people out there in our nation don't have maps and, uh, I believe that our, uh, and uh, the Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where-- where do they go? Like the Alaska. It's just right over the border. It is-- from Alaska that we send those out to make sure that an eye is being kept on this very powerful nation, so we will be able to build up our future, for our [children].

Jenga, that was Bluto not Biden.
"Germans?"
"Forget it, he's rolling."

She is dumb as rocks.

Philly: "Jenga, that was Bluto not Biden."

Maybe Jenga was referring to the Biden goof, highlighted on The Daily Show, where he mentioned how President Roosevelt went on TV to talk about the stock market crash. There are two things wrong with that sentence, the least of which is that FDR wasn't president during the stock market crash.

Katie should have asked her something like "who were the last five presidents of Canada?"!

Remember that Bluto went on to become Sen. Blutovsky.

Ain't that just like the lie-berals - y'all ain't got nothing behind yer arguments so it's all the politics of personal destruction. I understood every word she say with her mouth!

I'm a professional PR person and I've media-trained more than a few people during my career. Some of them were absolutely horrible speakers to begin with. But after a few hours, or at worst, days of work, it was almost always possible to make them sound credible, even if they were talking about topics that were not their primary area of expertise. Seeing Palin flail in these interviews, unable to answer even the most obvious and likely questions, leads me to conclude that either a) she has the worst media trainers EVAR or b) she is a complete and total moron.

It sounds like Palin thinks that people don't believe her when she says that Russia is next to Alaska. She just keeps repeating it.

We know Russia is near Alaska, Sarah. The question is why it matters.

Joe may have a difficult time debatting Sara. How can he possibly hold back his laugher?
