In this nine-minute video of Sarah Palin, she tells the Alaska press that from her home in Wasilla that, among other things, she's amazed her ticket did as well as it did in the election. Also, the former VP nominee says the GOP represented the status quo that Americans were sick of.
If you had ever seen Palin interview, pre-nomination, you see the old Sarah, not the post-Gibson/Couric/SNL one.
Also, she addresses the rumors that accompanied her quick rise to the top of national politics, including the one speculating she's not the mother of her fifth child. In her kitchen where she's serving something from a crock pot, she dishes on Tina Fey's family!
Turns out, Tina's in-laws are hardcore Republicans and showed up backstage at one of Palin's rallies. Thanksgiving is going to be fun this year, huh, Tina? As for Trig's mommy, she raises her hand and says that she is. Oddly, she offers up her medical records to prove it. Wait? Why now?
The video shows a bit of the inside of Palin's home. Todd sits shoeless in an upright chair next to the front door. Piper busies herself with Trig, carrying him upstairs and then back down. At the end of the video, she has noted on a pad of paper all the guests' drink orders. Somebody even asked her for a beer.
She says she loved her time in the national spotlight and has not ruled out a run for president in 2012. Palin also explains why she charged Alaskans for living in her own home, instead of the governor's mansion in Juneau (it's cheaper than making them pay for an apartment while the mansion undergoes remodeling). She also says how she'll walk the fine-line of asking for earmarks from the federal government (if it benefits all of the U.S., she'll stick her hand out).
She also says she won't go to work for Fox News, because she would have to leave Alaska. Wasn't she just saying she wouldn't go back?
