15 years ago, Sarah Palin delivered one of the best political speeches of all time at the 2008 RNC Convention.

It filled me with such hope that Obama was going to be defeated. Then they destroyed her—both sides.

We did not know they were all on the same team—and she wasn’t.

She almost single-handedly got McCain elected.

God bless Sarah!

Thanks for that “15 years ago” reminder.

The “FIX” was in!

They were just better at hiding it back then.

Now, do they even care to hide it?

I’m ashamed that McPain was from my state.

The McCainiacs are still trying to run our AZ elections just like the Bushies are in TX.

BTW I voted for Sarah and not McPain.

I helped her campaign here in my area. She came and gave a beautiful speech. Traffic was backed up for a couple of miles to get inside to hear her talk.

how about it. McCain bailed early on Michigan and she questioned that ...out loud...they cut her off at the knee.

15 years! Where did the time go?

It is sad how her family fell completely apart.

I think I remember that speech, thanks for the link. They used her IMHO.

” Sarah Palin delivered one of the best political speeches of all time at the 2008 RNC Convention.”

When Sarah made this speech, I went the next day to the Republican office to do whatever I could do to stop Obama.
I said I will do anything to stop him.
I cleaned toilets, made lunches, help train people, made phone calls, walked door to door.
I went there everyday to do what I could do to help out, as a volunteer.

When they opened on Sunday I was there also.

I was picked as the top volunteer for that office and got to go to the airport to greet Sarah and crew when she came in for the rally.

I got to hold her baby, so sweet.

She is more beautiful in person than when you see her on tv.
I told her to never change and that all so many love her.

I met her Mom and Dad and brother, made lunch for them.
Loved her Dad, so sweet.

Her Dad loved the police badge I was wearing, tiny LVMP badge with tiny handcuffs, so I gave it to him and his wife came up to me and said, “why would you give him that, now he is going to be bossing all his fellow fishermen friends around.

Real down to earth people.

When I was there a lot of the volunteers, were legal immigrants and they could see down the road what kind of hope and change Obama was promising. And now it is happening.

They would ask me, where are the people who were born here, they could see what was coming down the road.
And now it is happening.

I despised Obama and did not like McCain at all, but Sarah’s speech gave me hope.

I still have hope for my adopted country, that I love, but my hope is really diminishing, especially when I see all these people coming in when so many of us came here legally.
We had to swear that we would never be reliable on the country. Now they just hand these people everything.

I do feel Trump is part of the answer and I pray that we can get our country back.

God , Please Bless America again.

Sorry for the ramble.
