Now, the problem here &#8212; I think &#8212; is that this entire Couric debacle is setting the bar for Sarah Palin <em>so low</em>, that any performance at Thursday&#8217;s debate that is <strong>the least bit watchable</strong>, without barnburning gaffes, <strong>will exceed expectations</strong>.  And the resulting skewed perception will be: &#8220;<em>Hey, she&#8217;s not that bad.</em>&#8221;  And the blame will return to the <strong>asshole Liberal MainStream Media elitists</strong> who <em>dare</em> back a Vice Presidential candidate into a corner and grill her on what&#8217;s on her coffee table.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The writers at the <em>Daily Show</em> must have a massive database of video clips and their textual annotations to be able to parse them all to find gems like this.  Watch <strong>Karl Rove</strong> as he heaps praise upon Sarah Palin for her governing experience in the fine metropolis of <strong>Wasilla, Alaska</strong>.  This after, oh wait, Karl Rove trashed Virginia governor <strong>Tim Kaine</strong> for <em>only</em> running the town of <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Richmond, Virginia</span></strong>.  Other flip-flops are featured in the clip.</p>
<p>Surely all politicians are adept at saying what&#8217;s right for the moment, but the Republicans are <strong>making history</strong> (re-writing it?) doing so in this 2008 Presidential election.</p>
