Via the Caucus: Christie Says Palin Needs to Go Unscripted to Contend for 2012
He argued that unscripted, even adversarial exchanges with reporters and the public are essential to judging a candidate, and that if Sarah Palin continues to avoid them, “she’ll never be president.”
Oh, Jeff Christie, why so much hate?
And: forget president, she won’t even be a viable candidate if she can’t find a way out of her fortress of semi-solitude (i.e., FB plus Fox and other friendly venues).
(Part One: here).
