Yes. There were so many great lines. Sarah’s timing, presentation skills, and pleasing and sometimes subtle touches of expressions elevated these words to another level.
How can there be any doubt that there is a ‘Providential Hand’ that watches over this country, giving us a “boost” at just the right moment when all seems dark. The ‘Providential Hand’ can and does change things in a moment of time.
She’ll be the best vice President we’ve had since Cheney...
If there’s anything liberal “feminists” don’t like, it’s an uppity conservative woman.
Especially one that walks the talk.
Palin is a true feminist — not the one-issue feminists of the left.
quite frankly .. that is the only thing that carries me through. without that knowledge one will end up in the funny farm quickly. Thanks for sharing Amercan United ... it is a breath of fresh air.
And .. Mrs. Palin represents that providence.. A breath of fresh air in her own right
bump
I watched the speech real time last night and recorded it. Then I woke Mrs. NHD up and we both watched it. Absolutely fabulous speech.
Ze-ro! Ze-ro! Ze-ro!
To me it’s just too perfect, too brilliant, to be “man’s handiwork”.
That covers the Marxist Commie Dimocrats and Messiah Obama about right. She hits a big homerun with these words. EVERY American should heed those words!
The best part was when she talked about after the speeches are over, when the stadium lights get turned off, and the styrofoam Greek columns get sent back to the studio lot. YOWZAH!
Yes indeed.
Sadly this shold have been coming from the Presidential Candidate McCain for weeks now. I lack the ability to understand why it was not. But at least finally with Mrs Palin someone on the Republican ticket is actually speaking HONESTLY and not politically about Candidate Obama..
Yeppers. Those ARE going to leave a mark.
And unlike dear President Bush, who can take a good line and strangle it to sputtering death, she delivered each one like a torpedo.
-Sarah Palin- links, from the beginning:--
I rely on the alleged Better Half- Miss Emily-- to watch and report on these things, and when she fell asleep her impression was “it was too much about McCain.”
When she viewed a replay of the whole thing later, it was laughter and cheering time- so chalk it up as a big win and major plus for Sarah- for now.
Now, the real heavy lifting starts- if she can maintain what she has begun- humor, poise, and hitting back-- we may well see the first woman Veep.
Normally, the swing voters decide an election- those benighted souls who make up their minds in the last few days or minutes before casting a ballot. And yes, what usually decides them is who they best remember, which means “the last good impression on TV.”
So she has to sustain what has begun.
But there is another dynamic- the “hockey Mom who wandered in from the Alaska wilderness, baby tucked in one arm, rifle in the other” has a quixotic appeal across a wide and divergent spectrum.
And then, there are the PUMAs that the New, Improved Black Jesus so foolishly threw under his bus...
I was laughing heartily when I heard that.
I like the line where she says Obama and Biden like to say that they will fight for you, but only one candidate in this race has FOUGHT for you.
That was brilliant.
It seems pretty obvious now that the media is PO’ed and saying the good governor wasn’t “vetted” because her selection was a surprise. McCain didn’t leak her name out and give the media a chance to approve of her in advance.
My level of respect has grown for McCain. He is definitely in this just to be admired. He is going to do this his way. That said, he did look awfully old and tired when he took the stage. Hope he holds up.
As for the VP, Barracuda is a good nick for her. In my minds eye, I saw a feisty woman standing with her hands on her hips and Uncle Joe and Barry adjacent to her bent over grabbing their soft and tenders after Sarah kicked them square in the beans. To put it mildly, she seems to not like “nuance” or naysayers.
I see Jimmy Carter vs Ronald Reagan part two shaping up here. Governor Palin is going to cheerlead McCain/Palin into the White House. What we need to do now is deliver her a House and Senate Majority to work with.
