Washington: Former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin said Wednesday she does not regret her interview with Katie Couric of CBS and wishes she had been more available to the media during the campaign.

"I should have done it, yes. And her questions were fair," Palin told CNN's Larry King Wednesday. "Obviously being a bit annoyed with some of the questions, my annoyance shows through."

Palin had some well-publicised fumbles during interviews with Couric in late September leading up to her vice presidential debate.

"Certainly I should have done the interview. And I think to attribute that interview to any kind of negativity in the campaign or a downfall in the campaign, I think it's ridiculous."

Palin added she wished she talked more to the media.

"In retrospect, I wish I had more opportunities or that we would have seized more opportunities to speak more," Palin said.

In two interviews with CNN Wednesday, Palin reflected upon her unsuccessful bid for the White House and discussed President-elect Barack Obama's incoming administration.

The Alaska governor said she would be honoured to help out Obama and his new administration — even though he did hang around with an "unrepentant domestic terrorist" — if he asked her for assistance on issues she highlighted her campaign, such as energy or services for special-needs children.

"It would be my honour to assist and support our new president and the new administration," said Palin, whom Senator John McCain chose as his running mate in August.

When asked about some of the tough rhetoric she hurled from the stump, she said she was "still concerned" about Obama's ties to former Weather Underground member-turned-Chicago college professor William Ayers.
