Palin: Maverick, Media Lover

Palin can't name a single publication---newspaper or magazine---that she reads regularly. Watch:

Palin: Alaska Still Really Close To Russia

Does Palin Want To Put Off Veep Debate?

According to CNN, the McCain camp wants to delay the veep debate as well. So. Um. How many ways can McCain suggest his running mate is just not ready for prime time?

Just from today, Palin isn't allowed to answer one soft-ball question at a press conference. And then tonight she gets stumped on what exactly McCain has done to support regulation. Maybe reporters can just give Palin a take home quiz?

The Palin Tanning Bed Scandal!

TPM brings a nice fun scoop from the Palin beat. The Alaskan Governor/Hockey Mom had a tanning bed installed in the governor's mansion:

"On the campaign trail, Sarah Palin likes to brag about how she put the Alaska state jet on eBay and fired the governor's personal chef. One item that doesn't appear in her stump speech, however, is the personal tanning bed Palin had installed in the governor's mansion.

This morning NarcoNews reported that that a tanning bed had been installed in the governor's official residence in 2007, sourcing a Department of Transportation employee familiar with renovations at the mansion. This evening, Politico's Ben Smith reported that Palin had paid for the tanning bed with her own money.

Now, Palin's own gubernatorial spokesman Bill McCallister has confirmed to TPMmuckraker that a tanning bed had been installed in the governor's official residence in 2007, and that it wasn't paid for with state funds."

In other pressing news, McCain finally admits he didn't think Obama really called Palin a pig.

Meanwhile, I heard the stock market tanked today.

The Last Word on Pigs, Lipstick

Maybe this is the last word on pigs. Or this. Or this. Or this. Let's hope that today brings zero talk of pigs and lipstick.

Let's hope Charlie Gibson actually asks Sarah Palin some tough questions.

Update: 2:16 a.m. WSJ has a bit of breaking news on that troopergate scandal.
