Sarah speaks.

Like any good thrill ride, part of the fun is that it's downright scary. An annotated overview of some early AP reporting...
In other words, no…
McCain has defended her qualifications, citing her command of the Alaska National Guard and Alaska's proximity to Russia. Asked whether those were sufficient credentials, Palin said: "It is about reform of government and it's about putting government back on the side of the people, and that has much to do with foreign policy and national security issues."
Or they may not...
She also said she had never met a head of state and added: "If you go back in history and if you ask that question of many vice presidents, they may have the same answer that I just gave you."
Indisputably…
"There have been mistakes made."
Clarity. Sort of...
Asked to clarify that she'd support going to war over Georgia, she said: "Perhaps so."

Eyes wired open…
…you have to be wired in a way of being so committed to the mission, the mission that we're on, reform of this country and victory in the war, you can't blink. So I didn't blink then even when asked to run as his running mate."
As you can see, the requisite scariness is in abundant supply.
