"Charlie"

Sarah Palin said the word, "Charlie" 60 times throughout the course of her interview with Charlie Gibson on ABC this week. To say the least, this is a sign of discomfort with regard to her role as a VP nominee. She came across as quite unprepared, especially when Charlie asked her opinion of the Bush Doctrine and she proved to have minimal knowledge of what it was and failed to formulate any opinion of substance on the post-9/11 foreign policy initiatives laid out by President Bush. It may be that Palin was just jittery about her first full-length national television interview, or it may be that she really is the unprepared, uncultured, passport-less hockey mom that she is leading those of us who are paying attention to believe.
