Sarah Plain And Tall

November 4, 2008 | 9:23 PM

CBS' Couric on Sarah Palin: "It might have been sort of one step forward for womankind but it was sorta a couple of steps backwards because it brought John McCain's age and health front and center once again, didn't it?"

CBS' Schieffer to Couric: "I think these surveys are going to show that Palin was indeed a drag on this ticket. ... Those interviews that you did with her, I mean she made a terrible impression in those interviews and I think that's when the bloom came off this rose, right there. And I would say that even if you were not sitting here."

John McCain spokeswoman Nicole Wallace, on Palin: "I think John McCain made an inspired selection when he picked Sarah Palin to be his running mate. I think it reinforces his commitment to turning Washington upside down and shaking it up and you know, if anything, if we failed to get that message across, that certainly isn't Sarah Palin's fault" (CBS).
