1. not legitimate, this video's sound has been altered to make it sound like he said that
if he really said it the video could have been played straight thru without editing IMO

4. I will assume you are being sarcastic.
The guy stops and corrects himself - so, it wasn't an "edit job". Again, if your humor was just very dry, it was very well done...

6. Here's the thread where people heard it live on TV
Several people heard and one of them recorded it and uploaded it to youtube:

McCain campaign manager just called her "Governor Failin"
Rick Davis is on MSNBC being interviewed by David Gregory and he slipped up and said, "Governor Failin, I mean Governor Palin". Freudian slip I say.

8. The edit was to repeat it. Where is the edit when he said it?

10. Simple to clear up. Watch the background while listening

there is no edit blip. Look at the man walking past the large, waving flag backdrop. Its seamless. Then watch the speakers lips while he makes the gaffe. There's no doubt that he stumbled, and corrects himself.

11. Simply unfair to say not legitimate on a major screwup like this unless you are a video expert
watch the graphic of "white house" scrolling on the bottom of the video, it doesn't jump back, it keeps scrolling. He realized he said it and quickly shoved out PALIN to try and save face ASAP... this is hysterical and such a wonderful Freudian!

3. It's on the level. Here's another taping of the same interview:

This one is poorer quality, made with a camera pointed at a TV, but you can hear exactly the same words.
