(McCain campaign to world leaders, "Please, she needs the street cred!")
So, obviously the McCain campaign has been shopping their candidate, trying to get her some gravitas.
Palin to meet with President Hamid Karzai per CNN
CNN confirms that Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will meet with Afghan President Hamid Karzai next week in New York during the opening meeting of the United Nations General Assembly.
What in the world could she have to discuss with the President of Afghanistan? She can't even see it from her house!
According to the Washington Post, which first reported the story, the Karzai meeting was initiated by McCain campaign officials.
We already know that she thinks she's ready:
"But as for foreign policy, you know, I think that I am prepared, and I know that on January 20th, if we are so blessed as to be sworn into office as your president and vice president, certainly we'll be ready," she told a questioner. "I'll be ready."
I wonder what they'll talk about? Will there be a big world map and a laser pointer? Is the Brandenburg Gate next?
