Sarah Palin To Barbara Walters: The Media Shaped My ‘Polarizing’ Persona | Talking Points Memo

Sarah Palin was, for the third straight year, named one of Barbara Walters’ 10 most fascinating people of the year. The full version of Walters’ interview with Palin, snippets of which were released already, aired on ABC last night, and they included another question on Palin’s possible presidential aspirations, more shots at the media, and even an appearance from Palin’s husband, Todd.Walters, like so many others, tried to get an answer out of Palin as to whether she’d run for president. Like so many others, she left without a concrete answer. Palin more or less stuck to what she’s said so far, saying, “I will run for president if I believe I have the best shot to win the race.” For now, she says she’s just “looking at the lay of the land”…though she did say she thinks she could beat Barack Obama.
