Cafferty plays Palin's LAUGHABLE answer to $700B bailout question (Couric interview)

[HughMoran]

(edit - this was the response she gave to this question during the Couric interview)

After the clip of the interview, Cafferty looks at camera with an utterly stunned look on his face, then says incredulously "did you get that"? (the answer was total and complete gibberish from Palin.)

Here's his full quote:

Cafferty: Did you get that? If John McCain wins this woman will be one 72-year old' heartbeat away from the presidency. AND IF THAT DOESN'T SCARE THE HELL OUT OF YOU, IT SHOULD... I'm 65 and have been covering politics for a long time - that's one of the most pathetic pieces of tape I have ever seen from someone aspiring to one of the highest offices in the country. That's all I have to say.

His question today "is Sarah Palin qualified to be President?" http://caffertyfile.blogs.cnn.com/ - lots of good comments :rofl:

1. It was the funniest segment ever on CNN - I wonder why people aren't interested

He basically nullified the McP*W candidacy - isn't that what this is all about here?

2. My response:

Vice President of WHAT? The local PTA? No, she is not qualified to be vice president of the local PTA. Speaking of children, it would be very interesting to see how Sarah Palin would fair against Jeff Foxworthy’s 5th Graders on geology or geography or grammar or…well pretty much any topic!

3. Some great answers were just read on the air

She's turned out to be an utter joke and, as Cafferty and his commenters stated, should drop out of the running post haste (I'd hate to see that personally - she's a great asset to our side at this point).

4. Geez, I posted this 45 minutes before the thread that's getting 10 votes

Is my headline not tantalizing enough?

[HughMoran]

5. 4-18?

WTF?

[PermanentRevolution]

6. It's all a popularity contest on here...

I'll give ya #5!

[HughMoran]

7. Yeah, I know

...and my headline wasn't as EYE CATCHING, but I posted this 45 minutes before the other post - how annoying :(

[firedupdem]

11. that happens to me all the time...I think we have bad timing n/t

[HughMoran]

12. lol - I think it was lousy headlining on my part

I updated the title and added the quote and I've seen more responses. I shouldn't have rushed to post - though I was giddy when Cafferty

SLAMMED PALIN!!

[Clio the Leo]

8. lol yeah, and he yelled at Wolfe for trying to play devil's advocate. NT

[kenny blankenship]

9. Ok YES it was amusing

[graywarrior]

10. He expressed what we're all thinking, that's for damn sure.

[HughMoran]

13. I generally wouldn't watch that troll at all, so this was incredibly eye-opening for me

She was meandering all over the place making almost no sense - it was utterly pathetic.
