Likewise, I have to ask that question every time I take a job, despite working in the field for 15 yrs. It's good not to make assumptions.
Sorry I didnt see any laugh tag in the quote. I suppose I could ask you for a source on the laugh but Ill take your word. As far as what the VP does how about presiding over the senate? Granted that may not be day in and day out, but out of context or not the quote makes her look not so smart.

So lets look at the rest of the quote and see if we can find some more context...

But as for that VP talk all the time, I’ll tell you, I still can’t answer that question until somebody answers for me what is it exactly that the VP does every day? I’m used to being very productive and working real hard in an administration. We want to make sure that that VP slot would be a fruitful type of position, especially for Alaskans and for the things that we’re trying to accomplish up here for the rest of the U.S., before I can even start addressing that question.

Still looks not so smart. I like to do "things" and work "real hard in administrations" especially for "Alaska".

I wonder what audience she was addressing this time, sounds like MTV again.
