Memo to Governor Palin Re: Media Filters

Governor Palin -

I'm glad you like debates, and getting the chance to answer questions without the "media filter." Tell me, when you couldn't answer a simple, straight question from Katie Couric or Charlie Gibson, was that because of the "media filter," or because you just didn't know the answer? I would like to point out that at tonight's debate, you barely answered any question directly, and if you didn't know the answer, you re-directed, which you couldn't do when Katie put you on the spot. Katie Couric didn't make you look like an idiot - you made you look like an idiot.

But good job setting the bar so low that the pundits are now saying that you did a good job. Apparently all you had to do is hold your own, regardless of whether or not you could actually answer the questions asked of you.

By the way, Senator Biden kicked your ass - I hope you took notes.

Yours,

Elliot Blake
