Palin acceptance speech download

I have dial-up. I tried to watch the video of Sarah Palin's acceptance speech but it is taking over 2-1/2 hours. Is there a download of it somewhere? I checked Download.com, but nothing. I checked youtube, but i couldn't download the video. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I had to work last night and couldn't watch it live. Thank you.

I do not need the link to the video, but a download of it.

Here's a link to her speech on YouTube.com. I believe there is shareware available on the Net that allows you to download YouTube video. I have no idea what it is but, do a search and it should come up.

Thanks for he link, but what I want is a download. I have no idea what “shareware” is. I am lucky when I can post without a screw-up. Thank you.

YouTube Video Download Tool
http://www.techcrunch.com/get-youtube-movie/

To download a video to your computer, enter the YouTube URL for the video in the box above (example). It will be downloaded in flv format - use VLC or another compatible player to view it.

I think this would work, but haven’t tried it because I recorded it on my DVR last night.

I think you just helped me out. Thank you. I am having problems with settings now, but at least I now have the tool to get the video. I saw the first 2 minutes of the Gov’s speech, and all I can say is ...WOW!!

You’re welcome. The video player that I use for VLF files is VLC media player. I think you can get it at http://www.videolan.org


By the way, I received this a little while ago from Luke and it is a thought to ponder for sure. I think we have a winner!!

I have watched as Sara Palin’s nomination and the events that have followed her nominations anouncement unfold. Did John McCain and the GOP set the DNC and the liberal media up, I think maybe they did. By letting the liberal media and DNC have a couple of talking points, ie: her daughters pregnency and her fights with the Alaska RNC, the McCain camp let them showcase Gov. Palin to the American people. If this is the case, they did a masterful job and suckered the DNC and the media into making Gov. Palin a household name and putting her front and center in the American people minds as someone who they can identify with. I am sure many people watched her speech last night who might not have without all this media attention, by the way she hit a game winning home run. By going after Gov. Palin and her family the liberal media and the DNC made the biggest mistake of the election process to date and may have handed the election to the McCain Palin ticket. I wonder is John McCain and the RNC really that smart or are they just lucky, just a thought, Luke

I have to believe that you are correct. My older sister had a baby before she married. She ended up with 7 well adjusted children and a happy family. Yes, she has some gray hairs from their teenage years, but all in all she would never change a thing. Thank you, by the way.
