Are all people named Tucker dicks?
Sep. 3rd, 2008 10:40 amCNN, John McCain's camp at odds following confrontational Campbell Brown interview. In one of those moments a network executive would excitingly term "great TV," CNN's Campbell Brown and John McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds clashed on air Monday over vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin's foreign policy credentials.
Tensions -- and voices -- rose after the anchorwoman told Bounds that she was just "trying to get someone from the campaign to explain what foreign policy experience [Palin] has." Bounds repeatedly skirted the question, choosing instead to criticize Barack Obama's lack of executive experience.
This afternoon, anchorman Wolf Blitzer announced on air that McCain's planned interview with Larry King tonight had been canceled by the campaign. Blitzer said McCain aides complained that Brown had gone "over the line" in her grilling of Bounds.
*snort* Grilled. Riiiight. They're just upset that Brown had the audacity to question their talking points. Was she the first reporter to call the campaign on the whole 'Palin has experience with troops because she controlled the Alaska National Guard' hooey?
Oh, and McCain canceling on Larry King 'cause one of his staffers got spanked on the air. Yeah, that shows the kind a maturity I want in the White House.
