SARAH PALIN SPEAKS: WHAT DO WE THINK OF THIS TODAY INTERVIEW?

This segment of the interview, particularly, struck me as very interesting.  What do we think?  I was intrigued by Piper’s reactions — clearly she felt comfortable speaking her mind – but I wonder why her mom called her "sister?" Nickname?  It’s something I’ve only seen in old-fashioned rural families.

Except for that perhaps odd moment though, she could be formidable if she maintains this sort of posture and intelligent visibility over the next years, no?
