“Oh, I don’t – I don’t know, but I’m not one to judge and, you know, I’m from a family and from a community with many, many members of many diverse backgrounds and I’m not going to judge someone on whether they believe that homosexuality is a choice or genetic. I’m not going to judge them.”

I think the pick was made for political purposes, but in terms of governance, it’s a disaster. You do the actuary tables, you know, there’s a one out of three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn’t survive his first term and it’ll be President Palin. ... It’s like a really bad Disney movie. The hockey mom, you know, ‘Oh, I’m just a hockey mom from Alaska’ ... and it’s like she’s facing down Vladimir Putin and using the folksy stuff she learned at the hockey rink. It’s absurd. It’s totally absurd and I don’t understand why more people aren’t talking about how absurd it is. It’s a really terrifying possibility. The fact that we’ve gotten this far, and we’re that close to this being a reality is crazy. Crazy. I need to know if she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago. That’s an important – I want to know that, I really do. Because she’s going to have the nuclear codes. I want to know if she thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago, or if she banned books, or tried to ban books. I mean, you know, we can’t have that.”
