In the Wasilla Wordsmith’s world, all questions are gotcha questions:

The contract also makes numerous demands to limit the public’s and the media’s access to Palin:

– Questions: All audience questions must be pre-approved, and can only be asked by a moderator or “designated representative,” who must be approved by Palin’s party.

Even though she knows what the questions will be beforehand she needs to write the answers on her hand, and still what comes out of her mouth is Snowbilly word salad. Jesus Christ, even Paris Hilton can answer an off-the-cuff question and “I’m pretty sure she’s legally retarded“*.
