Palin Acknowledges Criticism, Tells Couric: I’m Ready

CBS’s Katie Couric interviewed Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R) again today in Ohio, after footage from their last interview has led to widespread criticism of Palin’s preparedness to serve as vice president.

According to excerpts released by “CBS Evening News,” Palin acknowledged the criticism, telling Couric she is ready to assume the office and highlighting her executive experience as mayor of Wasilla, Alaska and as governor of the state:

Couric: Gov. Palin, since our last interview, you’ve gotten a lot of flak. Some Republicans have said you’re not prepared; you’re not ready for prime-time. People have questioned your readiness since that interview.
