I can understand Palin not being able to name a Supreme Court case off the top of her head; I was a law student and I'm not sure I could do it. But not being able to name a single newspaper or magazine she reads? She seriously gave off the impression in those Couric interview that, not only was she on the wrong side of the conversation, she didn't even know what the conversation was. That's not a matter of not being up on what the candidate wants you to say.
