It's eerily amazing how I heard her voice when reading those words.

This is wonderful.
But even better would be a site that presented one of these answers side-by-side with one of her actual answers, and challenged the viewer to pick the one she actually said.
I don't think I'd do too well at it.

...and scary in how close it comes to the real Sarah Palin.
Hey, does that mean that Sarah Palin fails the Turing Test by virtue of every statement being so damn incomprehensible?

Help maintain a healthy, respectful discussion by East Manitoba Regional Junior Kabaddi Champion '94 Galvatron thinman. I'm lost in there. I give as an answer. Computer generated nonsense sounds so similar to a friend and reloading fixes the US in there. Interview Sarah Palin? We've got to second-guess what their efforts would be getting along. And we have got to step in there. I do bring to be getting along. And we have to war and that's the US in a blizzard of American elections, of words.
Repeat the question! I do bring to second-guess what their efforts would be if they believe that has been allowed to share this answer. I'm lost in there. I give up.

The upcoming debate should be interesting to say the least. She keeps getting worse. If the stakes weren't so high, I would actually feel badly for her, she is so painfully out of her depth. You can actually see the gears turning as she tries to work in the talking points her handlers gave her. I am trying to figure out how they will weasel out of the debate.
If McCain hadn't pulled his "cancel the debate" stunt this week, they might have had a prayer for delaying or canceling on some flimsy pretext, but now it would be just so glaringly obvious - looks like they are stuck. Unless she resigns for personal reasons. Talk about being stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Unless she resigns for personal reasons
I'm going to repeat the sense of a comment I just made elsewhere - I think this is what will happen. There will be a sudden family (or medical) crisis, and she will withdraw, citing the need to put family first. She will retain the halo of perfect motherhood and loyalty to family, and they'll be free to plug in Romney or Huckabee in her spot.
Though some have said that the expectations of her are so incredibly low that it will be hard for her not to exceed them, and perhaps come out of a debate looking not as bad.
I do think the McCain stunt this week limited their options, though. His proposal that they move the foreign policy Presidential debate to 10/2 was, I think, an attempt to buy a little time, postponing the veep debate another week to allow for some more coaching for Palin. Any more monkeyshines like that are going to look pretty obvious.
Finally, my own response to Sarah Palin's interview performance: Politics aside: basic etiquette is to look deeper and see how having more or less Christian? The Bible Gateway is an attractive living wage, with benefits.
Ah....for the days ahead with it, and given her record, obviously a sports achiever to admire. I'm sure it's a social scientist would agree; no, you weren't cited for reckless driving, or driving to an advanced degree, and whether it might impact the people still call "sunscreen" "suntan lotion," by which to evaluate that McCain in Spain story without reading an English colony for the week is to analyze. To use the thistle, the Scottish references in Masonry, and the music project have been that the communication over devices is returning us to make choices about that.
As unpleasant as it has anything much to do what you need.

At the insistence of the McCain campaign, the Oct. 2 debate between the Republican nominee for vice president, Gov. Sarah Palin, and her Democratic rival, Senator Joseph R. Biden Jr., will have shorter question-and-answer segments than those for the presidential nominees, the advisers said. There will also be much less opportunity for free-wheeling, direct exchanges between the running mates.Which is ridiculous.
McCain advisers said they had been concerned that a loose format could leave Ms. Palin, a relatively inexperienced debater, at a disadvantage and largely on the defensive.

I recall hearing that they wanted to prevent the candidates from exchanging words, but:
"...Palin and Biden will each have 90 seconds to respond to questions, followed by a two-minute period for discussion between the candidates."
So I suspect the Democrats won that much of the negotiation.

Oh oh oh, I misunderstood - I thought this was something about how the two GOP candidates were not supposed to interact. I had read about the debate negotiations. I thought this was a new story that they were actually trying to keep McCain and Palin apart, to protect him.
This race has gotten just plain surreal. My Google News search today for Palin results in the following:

So then, McCain, why'd ya pick her as your damn running mate??? Does she make up for her lack of knowledge and experience in just about every area with actual knowledge or experience in any other area? Um, no.
McCain, you're 72, and I hate to break it to you but you really don't come across as a young and fit 72. Don't you think a more responsible choice would have been to pick someone who was ready to take on the responsibilities of the presidency in the not that unlikely event that you croak in the next 4 years rather than someone who can't even take on the media? No, you just wanted someone who seems like a nice lady and a good mom. Great judgement, there, McCain. Respect.

From Ed Schultz:
Capitol Hill sources are telling me that senior McCain peopleposted by jim in austin at 11:12 AM on September 27, 2008
are more than concerned about Palin.
The campaign has held a mock debate and a mock press conference; both are being described as "disastrous." One senior McCain aide was quoted as saying, "What are we going to do?" The McCain people want to move this first debate to some later, undetermined date, possibly never. People on the inside are saying the Alaska Governor is "clueless."

Here's Couric/Palin pt I, & pt 2.
I do note this section:
"Sarah Palin: That Alaska has a very narrow maritime border between a foreign country, Russia, and, on our other side, the land-boundary that we have with Canada. It's funny that a comment like that was kinda made to … I don't know, you know … reporters.
Couric: Mocked?"
The transcript leaves out "carica...", as in "was kinda made to carica..., I don't know, you know..." So some editing was done.

It's not only that Biden is out there more that puts Palin at the disadvantage; it's that he is able to express a complex thought. I'm guessing his gaffe-to-word-count ratio is much less than Palin's, so the 'gaffe-machine' accusation against him is silly. If she can't skate through a basic, predictable Couric interview, she's got no chance in the presence of an unrestrained Gwen Ifill.

Alaska that we send those out to make sure that this happens. We've got to put the pressure on Iran and we have got to put government and it's about putting government back on the world. No, I've worked all my life. In fact, I usually had two jobs all my life until I had kids. I was able to represent those things that can be looked to as that leadership, that light needed across the world. And as Ronald Reagan used to talk about, America being the beacon of light and hope for those who were predator lenders also. That's, you know, kids who perhaps graduate college and their allies, including us, all of these corporations.

...I can help the ticket, if you really think I can give you examples of things that John McCain had pushed for, more troops? A counterinsurgency strategy?" And he said, "yes." And he said, "yes." And he said, "yes." And he also showed great appreciation for what America needs today. I'll try to find you some and I'll bring them to you. I answered him yes* because I have the same answer that I am so proud of his independent and strong decision he has made, what he decided to do things better.
*That's it! She's not dumb, she's just been reading James Joyce!
It is obvious to me who the bad guys are. The bad guys are the good guys. Through reform, absolutely.
But no, the Pakistani people also, they want freedom. They want democratic values to be allowed in their country and their parents give them a passport and give them a backpack and say go off and travel the world.
That's why we have got to put the pressure on Iran and we are able to go back in history and if you ask that question of many vice presidents, they may have the same answer that I do not let them come over here and attempt again what they accomplished here, and that is part of the U.S. domestic supply of energy, that I worked on as chairman of the earth.
...we are at a point, here, seven years later, on the verbiage that Senator McCain chose to use because the fundamentals, as he was having to explain afterwards, he means our workforce, he means our workforce, he means the ingenuity of the earth. It is from God. What I think if you really think that I am the executive of.

Unless she resigns for personal reasons
I'm going to repeat the sense of a comment I just made elsewhere - I think this is what will happen. There will be a sudden family (or medical) crisis, and she will withdraw, citing the need to put family first. She will retain the halo of perfect motherhood and loyalty to family, and they'll be free to plug in Romney or Huckabee in her spot.
I would be shocked if they did this. If you go to places like Free Republic, they're completely in love with Palin and blame all of her terrible performances on a hostile "liberal media." Most of them will be voting for Palin's sake and couldn't care less about McCain. It would be a disaster for McCain if she were to pull out, there would be huge number of conservatives staying home in protest on election day.

The other day, I was on a stroll around Central Park. I walked past the Plaza Hotel and there was a crowd of people collected by the doorway, along with several photographers and suchlike.
"What's going on here?" I asked an older gent.
"Sarah Palin's here! She's coming out of the hotel!"
"Holy crap," I said, and I waited there to catch a glimpse of the woman who may very well wind up being our next President.
The crowd collects more and more individuals, and as several people ask me who we're all gathered to see, I answer, "Sarah Palin."
Moments pass, and the photographers rush to the door. A woman has come out. Her hair is in a ponytail. She signs an autograph. Flash bulbs go off.
She doesn't look like Sarah Palin; she's long and thin, not squat and average.
She turns around. Not Sarah Palin. She's Celine Dion.
At that point, for reasons Celine Dion will probably never know, about half of the crowd gathered to see her that day stomped off upon seeing her face.

I agree that this would be a costly move, but think about it. Freepers are the base. The worst they could do is stay home; but a Huckabee type would pull at least some of the religious conservatives back in anyway. The risk they're taking is with the swing vote, which they need desperately to win the election. No one who's not already in the base can pretend that Palin's a good idea. So they risk losing some base if she stays in, but meanwhile, they definitely lose a large segment of the swing vote. If they boot her and put a different religious conservative in, but one with a bit more believability as a potential President, they regain some base and potentially some swing vote.
It's a pretty tough call, and I'm sure the same debate is taking place within the campaign. What's certain is that, so far, Palin isn't doing McCain any favors. She's not really winning him very many votes that he wouldn't otherwise have based on his pro-life stance.
There's always, I guess, the possibility that this is some great setup - that she's acting the fool in front of Couric, but is going to just wow us with a stellar and capable performance in her debate, and bring it home for the Gops.
I mean, weirder things have happened. I heard it rained frogs once.

That's more than a heck of a process that's not allowing that process that progress to be able to commit to never letting that happen again. I agree with the energy independence that I've been working on for these years as the solution or not.

It's interesting that the Palin Markov chain make the same amount of sense as her actual statements do.
In fact, I tried a little test with various Metafilter users to see if the same thing happened with any of us. Perhaps to see if any of us were equally prepared to step in should Palin have to untimely drop out of the race.
Based on this test, I have found a candidate among our ranks.
