Today, the Internet has been abuzz with the saga of Campbell Brown’s interview with McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds, and the campaign’s revenge on CNN.
It seems that after the tense exchange between Brown and Bounds about Sarah Palin’s foreign policy experience, the McCain campaign decided to cancel Palin’s appearance on Larry King Live.
In a pinch, the King of Politics assembled a team of Democratic commentators to weigh in on the GOP convention, including Jesse Ventura.
What’s unclear here is whether King planned to do this all along, like he did with the DNC, or if this was a last minute substitution because Palin bailed out?
If Palin’s interview wasn’t pulled, would it have overshadowed the Dems chance to weigh in?
Last week’s GOP response didn’t necessarily generate any meaningful discussion, and in fact it seemed like an odd attempt to equalize the amount of air time given to each party. But still, fair’s fair, right?
