I am absolutely beaming! Rush is really pumped about this pick. I think this gives this campaign some SERIOUS energy!

I said when I went to bed last night, after watching and posting on the plane tracking info, that I was feeling hopeful--

THIS IS SO AWESOME!

Does anyone have a You Tube link for her speech in Dayton?

I am TV less by choice and would like to hear her.

Thanks guys

Pooring a celabratory libation here!

Sarah Palin is a historic choice and most likely she will wind up potus in 2012 going up against hillary.,p. The comparisons will be like night and day and it will end any dominance by the Dems and reestablish the country as a Conservative.

Palin exemplifies all the things that are so great about this country and all the things that the rats have come to hate over the years. She's a stellar choice.

I was at a meeting with a client this morning...they are a CPA firm. After the meeting we all walked to the lobby where a TV showed McCain introducing Palin.

The excitement was incredible. Women were very pleased.

It was great to see 25 people standing in front of a TV excited about a Republican for a change.

Let’s hope she doesn’t have to spew McCains populist message too much and can stand on her own...a strong, conservative woman.

After, she loves the caribou...for dinner.

“It’s all down hill for Hussein Obama the cheese eating surrender monkey.”

Wouldn’t “arugula eating surrender monkey” be more appropriate?

Rush just said the mention of Hillary and Geraldine was GENIUS!

I agree ... brilliant!

I’ve never liked McCain, either, but this choice for VP has solidified my vote, for certain.

I love it that she KILLED the “bridge to no where”

I also love the way she gave tribute to Ferraro, and even to Hitlery.

Oh how I pray this woman becomes the first female VP in American history!!!!!!!!!

I've always thought that either the first woman or black President would be a Republican. Looks like I just might be right, because as VP she'll be in the catbird seat when McCain is finished with his eight years as President. ;o)

I just visited (shudder) DUmmieland. Heads are exploding! Out of fifty post’s only two are devoted to Obama. Typical swearing,tearing her up any way they can. Exuse me while I go disifect myself, the sacrifies we do for FR.>

[Miss Didi]

I have been cursing McCain all week over every possible leak...Kay Bailey, Meg Whitman, Joe L., Tom R., Tim P., etc. Now I am going to donate and can’t wait to wear my MCCAIN/PALIN button around the city. ;)

[Gator113]

I truly expected Romney to be the pick, but I am thus far very pleased with Palin. I sure hope this works.

-—”ABC just cut off Palin’s speech! They cut to Stephanopolus (sp?) and the other anchor. Just cut her off COMPLETELY! “

I saw that too. ABC had to insert Staphocaucus’s negative spin because her speech was too good. They f’n censored her!!!!

What unashamed liberal bias!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mnehring]

The McCain store and donation site are locking up, they are being overwhelmed.

[crymeariver]

I hope McCain camp keeps the high school cheerleaders and home made signs for the convention. What a different backdrop than the creepy North Korea type signs at the demo convention.

[SoTex]

God bless Sarah Palin, and may she never be corrupted.

[HerrBlucher]

I think after the McCain Presidency, we’re looking at the first WOMAN PRESIDENT of the United States!! GO SARAH!!

Yup, this is a double victory for all those women who have been longing for a woman as pres....not only will they get the first woman veep but its guaranteed to be either Clinton or Palin in 2012. Oh I forgot, McCain has to win in November....minor detail there....bambi is so toast.
