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."

Yesterday I posted this on FR:

“I am not voting for McCain, I am voting against Obama.”

Today, I sent the McCain/Palin campaign a big PayPal contribution!

You might want to invest in a couple of new servers. I have a feeling it’s going to get busy up in here.

First woman VP for America from the Republican Party? I bet Hillary is screaming mad tonight.

I think Hillary is thrilled. She is going to enjoy watching McCain and Sarah kick Bambi's @ss.

I truly believe Hill will vote for them. Gerry Ferraro too.

Well I respectfully dis-agree..being a MOTHER is the greatest gift GOD has given to humankind, she has 5 children one with Down’s Syndrome, if she was to become the President of the USA her child suffers.

If we really respect LIFE then we should honor that MOTHER’S have a greater calling then trying to appease a changing world that Women have to be all things....

Gov Palin still has children young enough that need her more, than Americans who want her on the ticket so Mc Cain might win..

Liberman or Romeny would of been great choices IMHO, they could of went up agaisnt Obama/Biden and we would of won..

This election does not seem to be about the American People it seems to be about the people running and that is it..
GOd Bless our Country....

McCain has kept Obama on the ropes. Even today, he crushes Obama’s speech as the lead story. I don’t know who is running McCain’s campaign but he is a genius.

The Democrats crowing about her inexperience is just kicking Obama while he is down.

Palin was brilliant in expressing her thanks to Geraldine Ferraro and Hillary Clinton for blazing the way. If they attack her after that, they will not look good

“I am a Staunch Conservative but I don’t get his choice”

Here’s all you need to get: SHE’S A CONSERVATIVE TOO.

He could have picked a RINO or a conservative.

He picked a conservative reformer. AWESOME.

“In reality Mc Cain is 72 yrs if something were to happen to him are we to assume she can RUN THIS COUNTRY??”
Why the hell not?!?!
She would be so much better than Obama its not even funny.
Prolife - will pick right judges.
She vetoed wasteful spending.
She took on the good ol boys - she wont fold like Obama would when going up against rogue nations.

“We have so much at stake this ELCTION no longer seems it is about the USA and the Americans who live here....”

A lot is at stake. That’s why we need to support MCCAIN/PALIN!

The moderators put up a poll on the front page last nite, asking for our vote on who we thought McCain would pick for VP.

I wish they would publish our votes.

I was one of a minority - 19% - who guessed right. (It was just my gut feeling that McCain would something “maverick”.)
