Palin Pick Causes 'Elation' among Evangelical Leaders
cbn ^

Posted on 08/29/2008 9:23:20 AM PDT by flyfree

Wow. Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is John McCain's pick for Vice-President. Folks, this is s close to a game changer as you can get.

Let me give you some instant reaction. I can tell you that The Brody File has been talking to multiple sources in the conservative Evangelical community and the reaction has been EXTREMELY POSITIVE. As a matter of fact, I am told that when conservative leaders heard the news this morning at a meeting at the Council for National Policy, one attendee told me that there is "nothing but elation. People are giddy. They are energized and they now believe that in fact this campaign has the ability to win this election."

Personally I don’t think anyone can anymore...The world has changed in so many ways that I think it’s beyond MAN, to bring it to a place that was once known to work for past generations...I stand on faith and that GOD will make the world once again the place he always intended it to be....

The Obama campaign is going to attempt to define Sarah as a nice mommy from Alaska who knows nothing and is unprepared to step into the Oval Office should that happen.

WE conservatives cannot allow the Obama camp to define who Sarah Palin is to the uninformed masses.

Word of mouth is our friend!

I don’t share your respect for Biden. When a guy defends his political beliefs by bragging about his IQ and lying to do it, he is an idiot. Bank on it. I hope he takes that approach with Palin. She will hand him his empty head.

I think liberals would be more inclined to put the child in a home or have a nurse come in....

Nah...

They'd be thinkin', "There sure are a lot of ICE FLOES in Alaska!"

I just don’t get this pick not one bit......

Let me help.

This pick is brilliant. She has more executive experience than Obama and Biden combined!

She has lived outside the beltway all her life!

She lives her values.

She is not a part of the "blue blood country club Pub set".

She brings the views of middle America into the oval office.

He's so accustomed to just going on the attack that it will be hard for him not to do that to Palin.

Oh the huge manatee!

McCain made a great pick. I saw an interview with her months ago, and she came off well. I heard the news and was thrilled, and I don’t know much about her. The more I know, the more I like. The opposite of Biden... I hope McCain/Palin push the “change” theme- they are both better candidates to do this than Obama/Biden. The fact she gave birth to a Down Syndrome child makes a poignant contrast with B Hussein Obama (D-Infanticide).

Ok...but, God, also, gave us brains, [although, at times that IS debatable] and I believe we have the responsibility to use them for the good of all. JMO.

I think that those of us who got it right should get some kind of graphic next to our names when we post. :)

That bounce is very normal and will be gone within a day or so.

Obama is not the story anymore. Sarah is.

You said it well, Sarah and her husband “two real Americans.” That’s what we desperately need in Washington DC some “REAL AMERICANS”. Well said.

This is normal but if I am mistaken his bounce is less than Kerry and Gore got out of their conventions. Will have to see after new polls come out. I believe many democrats are worried that Obama does not have a much bigger lead at this point in the contest. His media coverage (sickingly biased) is not translating to the kind of lead most expected.

I heard Glenn Beck, whom I respect, say this choice might make him vote for McCain, I perked up. I’ll have to learn more about her, especially her economic voting record, the club for growth should come out with a nice analysis.

I think it is unfortunate that people don’t focus primary on combating american socialism and confiscatory taxes and instead get excited on superficial emotional issues which seem to be of such high value to some social ‘conservatives’.

Here is Palin on Glen Beck:
