Don't you think she had some foreknowledge she was on the shortlist, and had time to consider what she would say if she were asked?
I don't know, but you'd think so, you'd hope so?? Then when I read this oddly phrased sentence:
Palin says she has confidence in her readiness: "You can't blink. You have to be wired in a way of being so committed to the mission, the mission that we're on. ... So I didn't blink then, even when asked to run as his running mate."
it seems state that she never blinked, while committed to THE mission (? what ever that is) or THEIR mission, or EVEN when asked to be (McCains) running mate. Otherwise wouldn't she have said she weighed the decision. Discussed with her family etc.
I haven't read the full interview, I will though--I'm going by what I'm reading here.
I do find her "run as his running mate" pretty funny, don't you.
I don't like her repeated use of the the word "mission" at all. How about vision, goal, ideal, dream. Mission has too many negative conotations.
