Lassen and Rubicon -

I do not hate Palin. I have absolutely no respect for her but I do not hate her.

One of the things that make her appear so incompetent is her inablility to speak off the cuff. All of the questions asked of her must be sent in before an interview so her handlers can prepare the answers. This began immediately after her interview with Katie Couric in which Palin stammered and stuttered through answers that made no sense. We need someone who can think on their feet - like President Obama does on a daily basis.

Once again, I do not hate Palin but I have absolutely no respect for her.
