Welcome to FR. After reading the article, most of it is not "new" Palin was selected for the very fact that you state in the diary entry. She can energize the common man/woman because she appeals to them. Obie should be worried, due to the fact that IMO he was counting on ACORN to offset the PUMA defection and didn't think the unknowns would show up. He will also draw the youth vote but not in the margins he thinks, so it worries them.

I'm glad what you posted is out here to be read, again, but even you know that the Palin effect was planned by the McCain team long ago. After factoring in the 10% favorability of the congress, we are seeing the OZ factor and not the real man behind the curtain. I do not believe the the country is ready for a socialist, but if they wake up Nov. 5th, its going to be like a bad one night stand, and instead of waiting 9 months to see what the outcome will be, it'll be 2-4 years.

Again, welcome to FR, jump in and keep posting links to the sites you visit.

Obama will draw the youth vote in a greater percentage than many think. They are totally mesmerized by Obama. I see too many of them and argue with them but nothing gets through. Will they be responsible enough to get to the polls? I think so. We have to keep trying to shake their confidence in the One. I think it should be a priority in the home stretch to reach these kids.

Well, I still expect McCain to blow Hussein out of the water. But I must admit, in the dark of the n ight sometimes, I worry.

My wife despises Obama, but seems to despise Palin more, thinking she is a “cheer-leader”. My son thinks she reflects poorly on McCain's judgement, and plans to vote for Obama on this one factor alone; although, he has since added “the economy”

My sister-in-law and my ex-sister-in-law talk the economy and say they can't believe he thought women would vote for her just because she's a woman. They consider it an insult. My mother-in-law, who was so excited about Palin, now worries that she's not smart enough to be President someday.

On the other hand, I love the woman, but I was going to hold my nose and vote for McCain anyway. But sometimes I worry.

I have faith in the American people, except sometimes I remember what idiots so many of them are that have the right to vote.

Well, I still expect them to come around, and i will certainly vote. That's all we can do, come November 4

Let us pray.
