| Politician Punches Television Host over "Tough Questions"
Despite possible expectations, amazingly it is not another Sarah Palin interview clip with Katie Couric. Quote:
An underdog in Sunday's election for governor of Bangkok punched and kicked a television journalist Thursday, saying he was provoked by tough questions during a live interview.
....
"I admit I did it. I couldn't stand it when he humiliated me on air," said Chuvit, a stocky former bodybuilder who owned a strip of girly bars before entering politics a few years ago.

Other than the "tough questions" angle I don't see the comparison, Trekkie-dude.
Just watch the debate objectively and whether he or she wins deal with it.  | |

The "tough questions" assertion doesn't relate too well either, but hey, I got a quick chuckle anyway - especially following the "all of them" newspaper comment.

More like Sarah Palin has become the modern-era Dan Quayle. 
The infamous "potatoe" incident is still amusing after all these years, just like Palin's interview with Couric will probably still be amusing years later. The unamusing aspect is we could be repeating some rather painful Vice Presidential history if she is actually elected.
Anyone else remember some of the following particularly "insightful" statements? Quote: |

Modern-day Dan Quayle in 30-days no less. Dems do move quick when blind-sided whether any dark horse is qualified or not. C'mon Rob put the Sarak Palin reference back. Or contract her name and call her "Sarin", as in poisonous gas. | |
