Nice ClothesGovernor Palin looks very nice in her new wardrobe but maybe they could have spent that $150,000 on lessons with Professor Henry Higgins. She was recently interviewed by James Dobson of Focus on the Family which is about as friendly an interview she is going to get short of being interviewed by her husband. Anyway, it didn’t go too well. He asked her about the GOP platform approved at the convention and she seemed to get confused with pirate ships or something.

This is a strong platform around the planks in this platform that respect life and respect the entrepreneurial spirit of this great country and those things, back to the social issues that are what Republicans, at least in the past, had articulated and tried to stand on.

Now, finally, we have very solid planks in the platform that will allow us to build an even stronger foundation for our country. It’s all good and it’s encouraging. You would maybe have assumed that we would have gotten further away from those strong planks. But no, they’re there, they’re solid, we stand on them and again I believe that it is the right agenda for the country at this time. Very, very clear and contrasted tickets in this election November 4th. People are going to see the clear contrasts, you just go to the planks in our platforms and that’s where you see them.

I would have thought to ask her, “Huh?!?!?!” but then she might have tried to explain which probably would have just been worse.
