Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain
"MSNBC Live" 11:23am
Interview

TOPIC: Vice Presidential debates

TRANSCRIPT:
TAMRON HALL: We saw at the convention, she was able to . . . talk about her life as a hockey mom. And that worked in that setting . . . I want to talk to you about the substantive, having a command of the facts Im going to play a little of that Katie Couric interview . . . lets play when she was asked about Supreme Court decisions she did not agree with.

[ . . . ]

HALL: . . . we know how hindsight feels, you think to yourself, why didnt I saw this, I couldve said that . . . how do you avoid that? How do you prove she has a command of the facts? A knowledge of where Sen. McCain . . . stands.

PFOTENHAUER: Knowing Sen. McCains policies . . . is very different from, frankly, several gotcha questions . . . unless youre a Washington attorney, its difficult to roll Supreme Court decisions trippingly off the tongue . . .

HALL: What about the question about what papers she reads? . . . she was also asked in that same series of interviews about what papers that she would read . . . and she did not give a specific paper . . . what Im talking about is: can she be vague?

PFOTENHAUER: I think shes at her best when shes clear about, shes clear about who she is and describing the path that needs to be followed moving forward. And frankly, clear about the distinctions between the Obama path and John McCains path . . . I think that the stronger and more clearer she is, the more persuasive she will be to the American people.
