Palin will not answer any specific questions about foreign policy or domestic policy. She will make speeches, she will read her scripts and perform. I think the next drinking game should be "pitbull with lipstick" - how many times will she reuse that "clever ad lib"? No Questions, Please. We'll Tell You What You Need To Know.ccording to Nicole Wallace of the McCain campaign, the American people don't care whether Sarah Palin can answer specific questions about foreign and domestic policy. According to Wallace -- in an appearance I did with her this morning on Joe Scarborough's show -- the American people will learn all they need to know (and all they deserve to know) from Palin's scripted speeches and choreographed appearances on the campaign trail and in campaign ads. Here's the exchange: (video at link) http://www.time-blog.com/swampland/2008/09/no_questions...
