Palin on Being Ready

Charles Gibson: "And you didn’t say to yourself, am I experienced enough? Am I ready?"

Sarah Palin: "I didn’t hesitate, no. "

Charles Gibson: "Doesn’t that take some hubris?"

Sarah Palin: "I answered him yes because I have the confidence in that readiness. And knowing that you can’t blink. You have to be wired in a way of being so committed to the mission, the mission that we’re on, reform of this country, and victory in the war. You can’t blink. So, I didn’t blink then even, when asked to run as his running mate."

While I am not really sure what “wired in a way of being so committed to the mission” actually means, I am sure that Sarah Palin should have expected a question like this. I find it sad that this is the best answer she could come up with.
