Well, if this is true, she's behind the 8-ball in more ways than one!

However, consider your source:

I checked abcnews website and couldn't find a reference to any
discussion of the 8-ball during the Charlie Gibson interview.

Further, they quoted the section where they discussed her supposed
remark the war in Iraq is "a task that is from God," as well as her
supposed misuse of an Abraham Lincoln quotation. Gibson repeated keeps
trying to pin this on her, but her replies in the interview, at least, show
that she never made the dubious remarks being attributed to her!

Palin Uses Magic 8-Ball in ABC Interview
Offers Three Answers to Eighty Questions

GOP vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin said today that she was
"delighted" with her performance in a much-publicized ABC News interview
with Charlie Gibson and gave credit to her "trusty Magic 8-Ball" for
helping her come up with answers to "some darn tricky questions."

"Charlie brought his A-game, that's for darn sure," Gov. Palin said after
her interview. "That's why it's a good thing I had my Magic 8-Ball with
me."

During the interview broadcast on ABC, the Alaska governor was seen
shaking her Magic 8-Ball after each question before responding to Mr.
Gibson.

All in all, Gov. Palin responded to over eighty of the ABC newsman's
questions with only three answers, believed to be a record for a
nationally broadcast interview with a major political figure.

"Terrorists are hell-bent on destroying us," Gov. Palin said no fewer than
nineteen times.

"I believe that America must do what we can to be strong," she said
fifteen times.

"Reply hazy - try again," she said nine times.

Occasionally, she attempted an adlib, usually the word "Charlie," which
she used over one thousand times.

All in all, Gov. Palin said she was "pleased as punch" by her performance,
despite having told Mr. Gibson that the United States should invade
Russia.

When asked by reporters where she got her answer to the Russia question,
Gov. Palin replied, "My Magic 8-Ball got stuck on that one, so I asked
God."

On the campaign trail, GOP presidential nominee John McCain said he was
"thrilled" with Gov, Palin's performance, adding that she would be shipped
to Alaska and frozen in a block of ice for the remainder of the campaign.

This post is highly unfair to Magic 8 Balls everywhere. Unlike Saracudda,
Bush, and McInsane, Magic 8 Balls are correct 50% of the time...
