[Ol JohnnyBoy]

Looks like her "Her Highness" needs to watch what she says out in public. The world is watching and listening for any sign of inexperience or ignoranceas towhat one's true position is.

Watch: Gov. Sarah Palin answers questions at Tony Lukes in South Philadelphia.
[/align][/align][/align][/align]WASHINGTON (CNN)"” Sen. John McCain retracted Sarah Palin's stance on Pakistan Sunday morning, after the Alaska governor appeared to back Sen. Barack Obama's support for unilateral strikes inside Pakistan against terrorists
"She would not"¦she understands and has stated repeatedly that we're not going to do anything except in America's national security interest," McCain told ABC's George Stephanopoulos of Palin. "In all due respect, people going around and"¦ sticking a microphone while conversations are being held, and then all of a sudden that's"”that's a person's position"¦ This is a free country, but I don't think most Americans think that that's a definitve policy statement made by Governor Palin."
Saturday night, while on a stop for cheesesteaks in South Philadelphia, Palin was questioned by a Temple graduate student about whether the U.S. should cross the border from Afghanistan into Pakistan.
"If that's what we have to do stop the terrorists from coming any further in, absolutely, we should," Palin said.
During Friday night's presidential debate in Mississippi, Obama took a similar stance and condemned the Bush administration for failing to act on the possibility terrorists are in Pakistan.
"Nobody talked about attacking Pakistan," Obama said after McCain accused the Illinois senator of wanting to announce an invasion. "If the United States has al Qaeda, bin Laden, top-level lieutenants in our sights, and Pakistan is unable or unwilling to act, then we should take them out."
McCain emphasized Sunday, Palin "shares" his view on the matter.

In my opinion, Madmac needs to give her some breathing room and let her views differ (to a degree). Right now, it looks like the mccain campaign has the girl so scared to answer questions, she looks nervous. I know the feeling. They don't have to agree on every solitary thing. I think on things like this America has no issues with varying opinions.

Amen to that BC.

+1 BC. Let Sarah be Sarah.

I don't know that there is any real disagreement on this issue among candidates. The real difference is McCain wants to be a bit more discrete about it.

It is worse than that. They put a muzzle on her IMO. The debate should be a real treat to see.

The debate will be fun to watch, but unless she breaks down and starts crying, i dont see it having much impact. Dan Quayle looked like an idiot in the VP debates and it didn't matter. Ross Perot's VP candidate should have been in a nursing home instead of at the debate, but Perot still made one of the greatest showings as an independent candidate in history.

I plan to watch and so far plan to vote for them. I watched her 3 interviews and it is no wonder SNL did the takeoff on Palin. They caught it pretty well IMO. Politics rarely makes me laugh.
