Katie Couric sits down with Joe Biden and Sarah Palin for a few questions of substance, Roe v Wade, States Rights, Rights To Privacy, Supreme Court decisions, et al. The same questions, so there's no "gotcha" moment Grandpa McLame falsely complains about. Biden is in his element, which of course is the planet Earth, full of sentient beings. His answers reflect his experience and understanding of complex issues. Palin, and I challenge any conservative who disagrees, is a trainwreck personified. Watch the video, the contrast is just painful: It's like night and day, or maybe it's good and evil. Inherent right to privacy in the Constitution? Palin says yes. That right to privacy is central to Roe v. Wade. It's a federal law, but Palin thinks states should decide. You just cannot say that there is a right to privacy in the US Constitution, but that what to do about that fact should be up to the states. She incorrectly uses the word "federalist". The second answer is just complete gibberish! Childlike. She has no understanding how the government works. She's just note cards and frameless glasses. This no doubt makes the conservatives happy. They have a clueless, charismatic twit they can mold into what they want. Who cares if she is manifestly not prepared to be President. The Christian Right, who are extremely well-versed in Supreme Court decisions, have found their Trojan Moose. Source: The Washington Monthly

I'm actually surprised Sarah knows the word Federalist.
