Gov. Palin talks about energy, ANWR

Governor Sarah Palin gave an interview with CNBC's Maria Bartiromo on the topic of energy a couple of days before Senator McCain's announcement of Gov. Palin as his VP nominee pick. She also discusses the issue of drilling in ANWR (the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge). I can see why the Dems are worried: Gov. Palin comes across as highly knowledgeable, down-to-earth, and straight talking.

Excerpts (some repetition between the two videos):






View the whole interview here. Gov. Palin discusses ANWR and debunks some of the overhyped arguments against drilling there. She is also one of the few politicians to have actually visited the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
