McCain Spokesman Makes Attempt At Palin Damage Control

[medartist01]

"She's an expert on energy..." Um... no she isn't,

FACT: Governor Murkowski offered a "number of other jobs" to Palin, who just lost her first bid as governor, and in Feb 2003, she accepted an appointment to the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, which oversees Alaska's oil and gas fields for safety and efficiency. Although she had LITTLE BACKGROUND in the area, she WAS NAMED CHAIRPERSON of the commission and ethics supervisor.

Amazing! A woman with no clue, becomes chairman!??

[adkinsjr]

OMG, this woman just doesn't get it does she! Sarah Palin can see russian land from alaska! Has Obama ever seen russian land?

[pretorious700]

"She's an expert on energy"

This guy was a total dolt.

[jaif4]

Did you hear how he said the name Palin at the start?

[whatloudobbs]

What did Mccain do with this guy? He just disappeared after this interview. He almost cried  during this grilling interview, refering everything to Obama

[wewon08haha]

He's a fuckikng PUSSY!

These limpdick asshole republicunts are too stupid to realize they drive support to Obama with their drivel. PLEASE, SAY MORE!

McCain's concession speech tomorrow is going to be sweet. Republicunts will be crying, sniveling and carrying on like babies. And we'll all be laughing at them!

The sweetness of victory is the ridicule dumped on the REJECTED republicunt LOSERS. So, join in and know that you've earned it.

Give 'em HELL!

Obama-Biden 08, 12 & BEYOND!

[XtheRiver]

Ouch! Every time this puppet squirms out of a serious direct question I want to throw up. He is such a natural liar, but still so obvious. Part of the whole failure of the McLame campaign is that only the conservative republican base & neocons - those already committed to McCain/Palin, can fool themselves to believe this douchebag. The Independents & "undecided" they need to reach can see right through him & the rest of their mindless surrogates. The most deceptive campaign ever.

[spdrklr]

Tucker Bounds is a fucking douche. He'll either be the next Rove (only far dumber), or he'll fade away, and wish he'd never sold his soul to be McCain's little penis-buddy.

[whassup08]

Sarah Palin fits right in w/ this campaign--answers w/ no substance and avoiding direct questions. Like questioning someone dodging landmines

[dragonlancet]

McCain must be a real genius to pick Tucker as his spokeswoman and Sarah Palin as his running mate who watches the Russians 'invading' the airspace from her outhouse in Alaska while passing gas. How McCain is expected to serve the public when he dumped his own wife when she was injured in an accident? Why he was a regular customer to various brothels while he was still married? Maverick -my ass!

[mdscjc]

So much for conservative republican values.

[greekboylost]

bla bla bla bla god help us all so did dick and donald and the rest off your party and look at the mess they created costing the tax payers trillions of dollars of dept we need new kind of thinking in the white house and there is nothing wrong with talking to your enemy??? and minding your own buisness??? then people might start liking you

[CaitMonsterMU]

:49 seconds, Tucker mispronounces her name. Long "A" in Palin...

[astroguyaz]

Tucker sounds like he's about to cry. Is he gay?

[split4to1]

epic fail

[megs97216]

GOP SUCKS

[avdo4u]

Military command exp., Palin really? Tucker =Fuck@r

[avdo4u]

This guy does not answer any of her questions.

1. If Palin family matters are to be private why was Levi flown to the RNC?

2. 5:37 TO 5:47 ROFL, this guy is a total idiot!

[gweasley]

You gotta give the GOP some credit. They are consistently circumventing questions and spewing absolute nonsense. What else can you say if there are no facts to substantiate Palin's selection as a VP nominee other than the fact that she is a woman?

[CaitMonsterMU]

Actually, she was picked to appeal more to Catholics and far right extremists than she was to appeal to women - her vagina was just a bonus.

[quest8899]

Why is it that every female host makes fun of this guy.

[mrscorie]

I don't think Tucker Bounds knows that Barack Obama has been on the US Foreign Relations Committee for 3 years.

[theranthor]

ROFL that was epic fail on his part.

[marenm3]

yeah lets keep it private...by Palin exposing her daughter...yeah that makes tons of sense.

And he's realllyy trying to avoid the questions, haha. He knows nothing about Palin

[victor2cutube]

a typical republican tactic.. always lie change the subject.. u can see in his eyes.. "stop asking I'm gonna lie" ..private family matter now that the dirt is out.. they don't do that when it is everyone else's life..reformer.. just saying it doesn't make it true.. slogans, propaganda.. where did she get the expert training ? what degrees ? what research ? tucker just repeats the party line make it about the other guy..

[quest8899]

This guy should seriously consider being a stand up comedian instead. I love how he can keep a straight face while blatantly lying about everything he says.

[diggyddogg]

gosh, that's a lot of BULLSHIT spilling out of Tuckers ears and mouth!

[Clemburke1111]

I fucked Palin's Daughter , but who has'nt ?

[ry8919]

Shes a screamer

[danielmangrum]

I LOVE YOU CAMPBELL BROWN!

[EmeraldView]

LOL. Nice try attempting to spin a McCain campaign decision that people in his own campaign are probably baffled by!

[beckpod1]

You can put lipstick on a pitbull.....

But a pitbull can still be bribed with red meat!

Sarah has not the power to command the National guard in an international situation...any idiot knows that!

[omiteru]

When will the Republican Party realize that teenage pregnancy is an big issue. This issue has the effect of dramatically changing young womens lives.

[adamfruitcake]

Palin tried to get her own brother-in-law fired because he wouldnt marry her sister. She did back the bridge to nowhere and she also supported a party calling for Alaska to become completely independant from the USA.

[5uper5tring]

CNN is running this story of her daughter day and night to get ratings (and smear McCain) saying "how could you make us use this poor little girl for ratings"

[oehieze]

okay go cash hte RNC check.. FOX is running it more actually :) nice try though

[omiteru]

It seems to be a common behaviour to blame the media for mistakes politicians have made. The thing that seems to be lost in this discussion is what is Sarah Palin's stance of sex education and contraceptions. The Republicans have run and hind behind any excuse that they can find. The funniest thing is that the Republicans seem to be crying unfair when Sarah Palin experience is questioned.

[5uper5tring]

cnn and msn are so sucking Obama's cock

[oehieze]

and you and fox are humping mccain's leg :)

[magicoA]

lol

[hisholyhoviness]

this is the perfect example of how to be a journalist.u ask prod and investigate and dont let the subject divert from the issue.

i was with mccain at first but i cant support this pandering.u can tell he chose her hurriedy to counter bamas convention and trying to ander to hillary voters who would not be silly enough to fall for this.

[mjn3457]

I just got back from 2 weeks on vacation. I went fishing, ate some food, got no-hit by my son and nephew in wiffle-ball. I used to rule in wiffle-ball. How I got here, I have no idea. But here I am. Who are these two assholes? And who gives a fuck?

[monkeyman1140]

Tucker is paid to be a GOP shill. He's actually intelligent when interviewed one on one, but you can't make money with rational discourse.

[debcrystal]

Why is he Pandering. If you are a true conservative, well just tell the truth. Oops the truth is bitter.

[GAPeach1125]

I am dizzy from the SPIN Tucker.. opps Lies Tucker. The fact is... she has ZERO+ ZERO, and that equals Zero. I am not going to be too hard on you, I feel so sorry for you. Please don't listen to this clip, if you do, Tucker will feel sorry for Tucker.

[CarMoves]

Campbell: Tucker, what is 2 + 2?

Tucker: I'm more aware of the answer than Obama

Campbell: Okay, so what is 2 + 2?

Tucker: Obama's experience is less than the sum of 2 + 2

Campbell: Tucker, you don't know the answer to 2 + 2, do you?

Tucker: Campbell, why does the media ask such liberal questions?

Campbell: 'What's 2 + 2' is a Liberal question?

Tucker: It's elitist. John McCain is real people.

Campbell: It's 4, Tucker it's 4.

Tucker: That's right, '4 More Years, 4 More Years!'

[forrestlyone]

Campbell Brown is my hero!

[mikwid]

Here's the deal. McCain has been payed off and/or bribed to tank in the elections and his choice of running mate is just the beginning of his big swan dive. There is NO WAY the Republicans didn't know about this woman and her daughter - please. The NWO has picked Obama as their man and McCain has to behave like the good minion he is and tank out of any possibility of winning the election.

[rogelio67]

mccain is using palin,,, notice how she is now on the news more than obama,, and way more than biden,,, biden who??? in few months she will resign,,, and then romney will step in right before election time,,, he will not be probed since the election day is so close,,, mccain romney 08,,, yeah

[ratcatcher3000]

Why are so many conservatives named Tucker?

[okiedragonlady2]

rhymes with . . .

[iamthebyron]

McCain's campaign keeps saying that the family, especially children, should be out-of-bounds. Perhaps McCain should have thought of that himself when he told a nasty joke at Chelsea Clinton's expense.

[thetanman17]

Campbell Brown is hot, and just got hotter.

[EvilLordBanana]

The whole time I was watching this my head was just screaming "ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTION YOU TOOL!"

[13otany13ay]

Wow, first time in this campaign I see a journalist do his/her job: Be critical, ask questions, dont let them get away with distractions.

[AdDigit]

I agree that journalist is pretty good.

[hiriumi]

Why is John not trying to compare Palin with Biden huh?

[hiriumi]

This guy is full of shit.

[AirborneIdentity]

HOLY SHIT

please don't die john!!!!!

[turtleblues66]

palin is serious trailer trash...

[wn8955]

If McCain died, Palin could appoint a foreign affairs expert as VP. Obama is running against McCain not Palin.

=====================

Barak Obama's mother was 18 and unmarried when she had him. That him a bastard.

Obama admitted that when he was 17, he was a crackhead & a drunk.

As governor, she cut existing pork barrel spending and balanced the budget - something neither Obama, Biden, nor McCain have had to do. She runs Alaska; Obama runs his mouth.

Actions speak louder than words just words.

[Anonymous1986]

the republicans belong back in the stone ages with their views on abortion, religon and science to name a few. never have i seen such a high concentration of flat-earthers than during a republican convention.

[iamthebyron]

You lie. (@ wn8955)

[konefka]

Did he even answer the first question? No way John McCain knew about this before hand....no way. I really believe that's a lie.

[RadicalDemocrat]

Absolutely! She should have held a news conference the minute her daughter became pregnant and told everyone her daughter's dirty little secret. She can't be trusted!

Obama/Biden 08

[covertone81]

Alaska National Guard commander Maj. Gen. Craig Cambell: "Palin and I play no role in national defense activities, even when they involve the Alaska National Guard. The entire operation is under federal control, and the governor is not briefed on situations."

Cambell was appointed in 2003, Palin didn't even determine who would be the commander.

[mnwike]

This guy tucker can talk a whole lot of nonsense.

[AirborneIdentity]

I don't think he even buys the shit he's shovelling...at one point it looked like he was laughing at his own "argument"

[2handsclapping]

She is an expert on energy?

She is an expert on saying they should drill at Anwar!

[2handsclapping]

Maj. Gen. Craig Campbell, adjutant general of the Alaska National Guard.

To the Associated Press on Sunday, he said he and Palin play no role in national defense activities, even when they involve the Alaska National Guard. The entire operation is under federal control, and the governor is not briefed on situations...

[Solomon2127]

No foreign experience in her life. she just got her passport last year. If something happen to the 72 years old McCain then Sara Palin will be in her own. This questions about John McCain judgement ability where to take the country

to someone who only know how to be a mom.

wow, Tacker nice try to avoid to answer the question.

God help America

[realstreetboy]

wow the change mcsame is trying to bring is represented by this puppet. more double standards and avoid the question when you dont want to tell the truth. lol

[meeeeeeee8]

In other words, McCain KNEW about this and didn't think it would affect his ticket.. C'mon.. there's something fishy there. It's almost like he's giving the nom to Obama...

[tigerone1970]

I have no sympathy for individuals who think it is their professional duty to lie, misdirect and avoid answering the question. It is a waste of everyone's time.

The Bush administration created this trend, with their hiring of Tony Snow and Dana Perino.

If he can't think of an example of a decision Palin has made, he should say so and move on.

[BackroadPictures]

Here is a good look inside the madness that is the current Republican ticket. This poor guy unfortunately only looks like a sleazy spin doctor avoiding direct questions by spinning it back to Obama because his responsibility as McCain's representative is turning their ever increasing pile of chicken sh-t into chicken salad. Remember, this guy is only doing his job, and I'm sure even he knows, given the situation McCain created, well, even he must know it was a lose-lose situation. TUCKER ROCKS!

[gduran1x]

Palin has military experience, wow...i did not know that

[jairoabello]

They said Palin has more experience than obama but the record is Obama managed to handle a 50+ million dollar a month campaing like nobody in history with almost 3000 employs around the states she managed a 12 million dollar a YEAR campaing and barely won the seat with only 50 employs including her. she is so experienced than even those who vetted her can't name something she done

[jairoabello]

Mccain Still on his way to Alaska trying to find his way back from the bridge to nowehere but he don't it wasn't builded yet

[voyagerdave]

Hey Tucker You have been hit by a torpedo ABANDON SHIP!

[sleeplessinbrooklyn]

this is such a double-standard. Palin's daughter is hot though, great rack too...stupid blonde though to let some dude cum in her :-p

[mtmcrae]

Want to keep it private...oh, how sweet. I guess that explains why she was trying to covering her stomach with "Trig and a baby blanket" when she was being introduced in that rally with twice as many people of the town she was the mayor of. What else does she want to keep secret??

[wizann39]

Shaking up the party and destroying 200 years of hard Republican Party work is quite DIFFERENT. McCain is clearly unisured on the Bridge to Nowhere!

[wizann39]

Oh poor Tucker. Are you lovin your job on this labor day? She has made decisions for the Alaskan National Guard.... I cannot stop laughing! Oh Tuck, time to send out the ol' resumes!

[ILUVFUNKEYS345]

Palin needs to take her family back to Alaska to take care of her mentally ill child an help her daughter to go through that emotional moment!What kind of mother is she?

[fovezer]

The Palin family is a walking, talking Jerry Springer show!

Oh, and Tucker is a slimy, little weasel.

[ILUVFUNKEYS345]

expert on energy! the woman is a journalist for God sake!

[wizann39]

McCain is uninsured and on the Bridge to Nowhere good. If he knew about it, how does he justify throwing Bristol and her situation into the world's most vicious and important political battle? How can he defend that?

[frellthat]

McCain has gone over the bridge to nowhere.

[clevapurple]

This is a great video.The McCain campaign was called out. Why should we elect McCain/Palin when it is obvious that she has little experience. McCain, God bless him, is 72 years old and has already battled cancer. So if this man happens to die while in office, Palin, who is obviously inexperinced is going to the be the leader of the free world???? She isn't even a good executive of her own family. I don't get McCain's strategy in picking her.

[NYPlayerT2]

Hmm... Seems the reps DIDN'T vet Palin as well as they thought they did.

[CityzenJane]

Sarah Palin wants privacy and choice for her daughter...why doesn't she want it for the rest of our daughters? It's not about Bristol, it's about her mother's extreme right wing views on teen pregnancy, abortion, sex education and birth control.

Let Bristol fade into obscurity but don't tell me that these subjects are now off the table be her family 'has issues.'

She WAS NOT vetted - No politcal people Rep, DEm or Ind - can claim that the McCain campaign called to vet her, because they didn't.

[smautomat]

It's fun to see the Republicans squirm. It's also quite funny to hear Tucker Bounds refer to the Governor as "Pallin" at the beginning of the interview, then "Palin" moments later. Way to be on top of the situation, Tucker!

[CityzenJane]

Nice to see the traditional media at least TRY to get a straight answer from a Republican for once... She tried but failed.

[Boobalopbop]

First betches!!! Haven't watched the video yet, but this is what happens when you don't "believe in" contraception.
