More on McCain's Interview With Imus
On Colin Powell and other Republicans doubting Palin: Asks "What's their problem?" Calls her the "most popular governor in America," lists her accomplishments in Alaska. Says Bill Clinton was "pretty much derided" when he came out of a small state to run for president. "I'm amazed."
Says just because she hasn't been to a "Georgetown cocktail party" doesn't mean she's not ready for the job. "I think she's the most qualified of anyone recently who has run for vice president to tell you the truth... I'm frankly entertained at the elitist attidue toward a person who is a proven leader."
On TV interviews: "She did fine in the interviews with Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric. She did a great job in those interviews.... It's easy to make fun of people and ask them gotcha quesitons but I don't think that the American people buy that baloney."
Thinks it's "hilarious" that some have called going on "Meet the Press" a necessity for a candidate. Laughed out loud.
