This is what I wrote to Rush today:
Rush,
I want to tell you what the Palin pick has done for me. I have been a long time listener but have frankly not listened to you in a while because I have really been disappointed in the Republican Party and didn’t think conservatives had a say in this election.
When McCain picked Palin I was reinvigorated again and hopeful for the conservative cause. What McCain has done is wakened the sleeping giant, the “conservative base.” This is the Left’s worst nightmare. They know that history shows that when conservatives stay home or are not excited about a Presidential candidate, Democrats win.
Now since the media and the Dems have gone after Palin personally, they have not just awakened me but have made me mad. I want to now campaign for McCain. I would never have imagined this in 100 years a few months ago.
The media and Obama’s smear machine have awakened the sleeping giant (the conservative base) and Republicans win elections when this happens.
I hope the media keeps it up because they are giving the conservative base a reason to get active these next 60 days which are the most important in this election.
Keep up the great work. You are on fire!
Great e-mail, truthandlife!
