Sorry, that's a ridiculous question. It's an obvious trap question and has nothing to do with her ability to be VP or President. She doesn't know what he has in mind when he refers to the "Bush Doctrine"? When I heard that, I thought "huh?". Even the analyst on CNN thought it seemed unfair, as no one has referred to it in those terms since we decided to invade Iraq, and it Bush's foreign policy has certainly evolved since that point. Why not ask the question as "What do you think of preemptive strikes?" Same number of words. Less trapping effect.
I like Matt Damon's commentary and I think we certainly need more info on Sarah Palin. I disagree with him in that I think two months of intensive scrutiny should be sufficient. But this is a silly question, and if this is your litmus test, then Tex is right--you'd already made up your mind. Fortunately, the rest of America is a little more rational and can suspend judgment.
