Go listen to her convention speech (youtube) and come back. Take out the McCain salutes, put them in perspective (garbage can).
Imagine this woman heading a ticket. And then, do the impossible- come up with a running mate.
Palin gave a great convention speech.
Almost as good as Rudy’s ‘Zero’ speech.
(I’ve been spelling it 0bama ever since.)
But herspeech was scripted. And as was well documented by the media, not written by her.
But yes, she gave a good delivery.
It is her unscripted moments, when she is on the spot and under pressure, that are of concern.
