1. yeah....
I love how she 'gets tuff' with Democrats and giggles and gushes over someone like NeoCondi.

We'll see how it goes, but I'm not hopeful.

3. I guess the cheerleader from the local middle school cancelled

She is SO FAR out of her depth doing serious news, it reminds me of a MadTV skit (and just as funny....which, well, isn't).

Why she thought she should try serious evening news and 60 minutes when she was really just a morning show ditz is beyond me. Her reputation is torched.

4. Think she'll ask any tough political questions?
Or just play soft-ball now that the Edwards are untouchable?

6. It seems like she's having a hard time with interview. Couric lost her husband to cancer and
she looks awful while asking questions about it.

7. She wants to be a right wing shill, but her personal experiences...
are making that imposible at this time.

8. It probably still haunts her
Kouric I mean. She is still human after all, and it is tough watching a loved one die. This is not a bad interview, no matter what people may say.

13. Considering her husband died of cancer at the age of 42, I think she's the perfect
person for the assignment.

19. apparently she is not the best person for the job
her last question made me turn the channel. Katie is a corporate whore regardless of how her husband died and SHE SUCKS BIG TIME.

Oh, I also believe her last boyfriend was an RNC guy. What a shock. :eyes:

18. How many times can she say that?
"Some people say...some people say....some people say!"
No Katie, you are saying it.

20. kouric tried her damnest to
bring down the Edwards but they were having none of it!

kouric practically called John a gawd damn liar cause he said he would finish the race.

John did very well and so did Elizabeth! kouric not so much(why did she remind me of a pissy little rotweiller?)

26. Yesterday, I posted that kouric..
"couric better not pull any of her anti-Democratic DIGS on the Edwards. I hope they're ready for anything from corporatebullshit."

And, darn if she didn't find a way to to make it a downer when the Edwards are so up and full of hope and optimism. If something does happen they can deal with that when it comes.

The good thing out of this, though, is people can see how Edwards and Elizabeth can be Grace under fire.
