NBC’s Brian Williams interviewed Palin and McCain today. Look for more on NBC’s Nightly News tonight.
In this question, Palin went on the offensive when talking about “pre-conditions,” saying Obama is ill prepared for the presidency.
BRIAN WILLIAMS: Gov. Palin, yesterday, you tied this notion of an early test to the president with this notion of preconditions, that you both have been hammering the Obama campaign on. First of all what in your mind is a pre-condition?
PALIN: You have to have some diplomatic strategy going into a meeting with someone like Ahmadinejad or Kim Jong Il, or one of these dictators that would seek to destroy America or our allies. It is so naive and so dangerous for a presidential candidate to just proclaim that they would be willing to sit down with a leader like Ahmadinejad, and just talk about the problems, the issues that are facing them, that's some ill-preparedness right there.
On another note, as noted on MSNBC’s Hardball, when Palin was asked whether she would release her medical records, she said she would -- something that seemed to be a surprise to her campaign.
Previously the campaign had said they would not release her medical records.
