Following the increasingly embarassing interviews by CBS News, Sarah Palin has come out like any good VP Candidate should and said that Katie Couric "annoyed" her. Thats funny because every one of Palin's answers "annoyed" most of America in their obvious BS factor. What has come out of those Couric interviews can only be described as highly damaging and while its too bad that Ms. Palin didn't enjoy some actual questions as opposed to the meatballs she was hoping, it doesn't change the fact that she was unprepared and came off as looking like a high schooler who didn't do the homework.
Having watched the Couric interviews a number of times, I've got to admit that none of the questions that were asked of Palin seemed unfair or out of left field. In fact, each seemed like something a VP candidate should be able to answer standing on their heads. Its unfortunate that Couric didn't give Palin the questions she was looking for, particularly ones that could set Palin up to attack Obama but thats the name of the game. The media has every right to ask the tough questions and too often, they don't. Here, Couric stepped up to the plate and took it to someone as opposed to letting Palin walk all over her. The fact that Palin was "annoyed" should only be taken as a compliment to Couric and her decent interviewing skills.
