So it didn't make sense to expect Dave to bring up the incident with Katie after he had shown the video of McCain at her desk stiffing him night after night? There actually are some unanswered questions there. Did Katie know McCain was supposed to be taking with Dave at that time? Did she somehow influence McCain to dump Dave and do her show instead? Was she irritated with Dave for playing it over and over? Did she think McCain's "suspension" made any sense? I guess you could say that is all old news since the campaign is over, but that did not stop Dave from asking a lot of Palin questions. The only reason not to bring it up is either the answers would embarrass Katie, or the questions would irritate CBS (though in the old days that would have been a reason for Dave to do it). I guess the real second reason is maybe Dave now regrets showing the internal footage himself. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Like TV only smarter.
