Palin: I'll Get Back to You on That, Katie

Let's swing it back around to Sarah, now. Shall we? While we may never hear her in a debate or answer another substantive question, we can reflect on this. (h/t HuffPo)

In her interview with CBS News anchor Katie Couric, Governor Palin appeared to be unable to come up with a single thing that John McCain has done in 26 years of Senate work to help with regulating the financial markets that are today spiraling out of control:

COURIC: You've said, quote, "John McCain will reform the way Wall Street does business." Other than supporting stricter regulations of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac two years ago, can you give us any more example of his leading the charge for more oversight?

PALIN: I think that the example that you just cited, with his warnings two years ago about Fannie and Freddie--that, that's paramount. That's more than a heck of a lot of other senators and representatives did for us.

COURIC: But he's been in Congress for 26 years. He's been chairman of the powerful Commerce Committee. And he has almost always sided with less regulation, not more.

PALIN: He's also known as the maverick though. Taking shots from his own party, and certainly taking shots from the other party. Trying to get people to understand what he's been talking about--the need to reform government.

COURIC: I'm just going to ask you one more time, not to belabor the point. Specific examples in his 26 years of pushing for more regulation?

PALIN: I'll try to find you some and I'll bring them to you.

I guess she didn't have this 1999 McCain quote prepared either:

There's a number of reasons why we are experiencing this almost unprecedented prosperity. Among them are a lack of regulation, free trade, and most importantly, we are going through a revolution the likes of which the world has seldom seen.
