In the Belly of the Beast
On Sunday, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin appeared in studio with Chris Wallace to discuss her speech, and also the primary race in the Republican party. Wallace asked her to identify the establishment, and she did, but I found it delightful when she described being there in Washington DC as being “in the belly of the beast.” While I am certain the Govenor probably wasn’t including FoxNews in her characterization of Washington DC, given the direction of Fox News lately, I really couldn’t agree more, even if she had. As usual, she was not going to be pigeon-holed by media, and she turned each question back around on Wallace, who was clearly digging for the answers he wanted, rather than the ones she might give.
Here’s the interview, courtesy of FoxNews:

An excellent interview, in my estimation. There’s a reason that she remains the grass-roots choice. Wallace two minutes of the interview by trying to ambush her with HBO’s movie, but he finished by talking about her article about Trig.
