Palin's awkward response to Couric's Roe v Wade question

CBS was sitting on footage of Sarah Palin and "awkward" silence. Katie Couric asked Palin to name other Supreme Court rulings besides Roe v Wade, and she could not. Watch the footage.

They are going to release that footage.
It's part of the VP question series, where they asked both VP candidates the same question.
They are supposed to show it tomorrow, before the debates.

CBS needs to release the footage instead of just talking about a leak from a McCain camp aide. Otherwise the McCain camp gets to cry foul play.

Sarah Palin is a god. In fact, she is *the* God. If I was God, I'd be nervous about getting kicked out of a job come November. And if I were you I wouldn't be so quick to make fun of her, Mr. smarty pants reporter fella there. Nope, I sure wudden.
