With Paxman interviewing this amounts to sending a lamb to the slaughter...
She held up pretty well and kept to the talking points, pretending to answer when she really wasn't. She came off looking very bad, but you can't fault her discipline. She showed a lot of backbone at the end.

Has this guy ever interviewed any US politicians? I'd like to see that.
