We’ve seen how he handles an instance when confronted by a knowledgeable interviewer like Bob Scheafer: Just talk a lot but say nothing.

The conservatives go nuts if a liberal breathes wrong in the media and they send thousands of e-mails asking for a correction. (See Joe Williams )

We need to start asking David Gregory, and the rest of em, to ask more serious questions and follow up when what is said is known to be false. (See Darrel Issa/ Fast and Furious)

“…but he should [not] deny their existence”

“In April of 2006, the morning after a debate at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, Palin and I were sharing a cup of coffee at the Captain Cook. “I hear you spout off facts and figures with no notes and I’m just amazed, but then I look out over the audience and I wonder if it really makes a difference”, she said to me.

Palin was correct. Having a grasp of the issues and facts didn’t make a damn bit of difference.”

Depends on the media source. Unless he sits down with a one on one, (besides Fox) where a knowledgeable interviewer can challenge him, his complete falsehoods will go unanswered. He can stump to a crowd and repeat this stuff, because he knows it won’t be refuted until it doesn’t matter. When eventually confronted, he lets his staff obfuscate, dodge and repeat the prescribed talking points. Maybe this will change after the conventions when actual policy will become more important, but Mitt seems determined not to be pinned down or put into situations where he would actually have to explain himself.
