OK, I'll tell you honestly, the Sarah Palin in those interviews is a little bit annoyed because it's like, man, no matter what you say, you're going to get clobbered.

If you choose to try and pivot and go on to another subject that you believe that Americans want to hear about, you get clobbered for that, too.
