Johnston: I think she's going out and talking and she's just digging a bigger hole for herself.
Palin: (It's) kind of this aspiring — aspiring porn, some of the things that he's doing — it's kind of heartbreaking.
Winfrey: The (upcoming) Playgirl centerfold (photo spread)?
Palin: Right. I call that porn. Yes.
Johnston: I just look at her in disgust. … It's almost funny, that she's like, 46 years old, and she's battling a 19 year old, and I'm winning. And I'm telling the truth. She's lying and losing. … If you look at her face, she's got — she's really — you can tell her mind's going 100 miles an hour when Oprah asked her those Levi questions. … I've got a lot more knowledge and credibility than she gives me credit for.
You know what: he's right. And in this war of nerves, he is the one not blinking.
