I wonder if Charlie Gibson will ask Palin about the $453 million in earmarks that she requested as Governor.
Palin has sought $197 million worth of earmarks for 2009, down about 25 percent from the $256 million she sought in the 2008 budget year. As mayor of tiny Wasilla, Alaska, she hired a lobbyist to seek federal money for special projects. Wasilla obtained 14 earmarks, totaling $27 million, between 2000-2003, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense.
More of the same.

My guess is that we'll see a puff piece with "hard" questions starting with, "isn't it horrible that Democrats say...". Then we will see Charlie Gibson perform oral sex on her.
Dammit, jac1975! Now I have to go wash my brain out with bleach.
Even in a puff piece, holy crap:

Um, Governor Palin, not to belittle your foreign experience, but war with Russia?!?!
Since Alaska is also close to Japan, you may want to investigate what a nuclear weapon can do to a town.
That sounds like a good drinking name: Predict the questions.
I shot of tequila if he asks her about the action figures.
