The Anchorage Daily News reports that Palin chatted with the press today in the lobby of the governor's office:

The governor talked about her future role in national politics, her rocky relationship with Democrats and the anonymous criticism from McCain staffers who claimed she went on a shopping spree with Republican Party money and didn't know that Africa is a continent, rather than a country. "If there are allegations based on questions or comments I made in debate prep about NAFTA, about the continent versus the country when we talk about Africa there, then those were taken out of context. And that's cruel, it's mean spirited, it's immature, it's unprofessional and those guys are jerks if they came away with it taking things out of context then tried to spread something on national news," Palin said.
