I wanted to avoid talking about elections

But can't.

OK, I won't talk about it.

That's what you call "not talking"?
and why, exactly?
is talking about elections (and your choice of sources who do talk shows the side you're on, anyway, so why bother to appear NOT talking?) could in any way damage your prospects in this country? Or you have some other reasons I can't imagine?

А почему она согласилась с ABC беседовать, а не с FOX'ом?

I am confused. I've read the quotes from the interview that the article claims were edited out. Like the part that starts with "What I think is that smaller democratic countries that are invaded by a larger power is something for us to be vigilant against"... and further "It doesn’t have to lead to war and it doesn’t have to lead, as I said, to a Cold War, but economic sanctions, diplomatic pressure"... This was all over the news, no?

What's up with that?

Some of the bolded lines were quoted in Slate as having been shown on ABC, so I suspect something's off in the presentation. But that aside - the whole interview, as given, is enough to make one prefer anyone to Palin, even Nader.
