I’m glad to hear that Evangelical leaders are pleased with the choice. I figured they would come on board when they got to know her, but this is great if they’re already positive about her.
As for being an “unknown,” she has plenty of executive experience, as mayor and as governor, and as someone who has gotten reelected and is popular with the voters. So she’s electable as well as good on the issues.
And she’s very exciting as a person. Obama can talk about his much loved wife and kids, but we’ve all seen what kind of person Michelle is, and we know he’d have aborted those kids in a minute if they hadn’t been convenient.
She has put her money where her mouth is, having a Downs Syndrome kid, loving him, wanting him, and willing to take care of him. As it happens, I’ve known a number of Downs Syndrome people, and they are great—very warm and loving, once you get past the initial, superficial impression.
What are the chances that Obama would have let such a child live?
In other words, this is a REAL, loving family, not a media construct orchestrated by script writers and hair stylists.
She has been on the Evangelical radar for months...
Just for the tally books, what religion does Gov. Palin subscribe to? I haven’t been able to find that answer.
