Palin makes her case

tonight's Yahoo Headline: Palin makes her case
Palin casts herself as Washington outsider

Palin casts herself as Washington outsider - Yahoo! News

If anyone had doubts of whether McCain made a savvy choice for his VP running mate, no one is going to be wondering anymore. Initial consensus of political pundits is that she delivered an exceptional speech. She will still be seen as very weakly experienced at the national and world level, but her net value is rather obvious.

If MCain keeps making good decisions like this (selecting Palin) I am sure he will be a very effective POTUS.

But, are we sure that it was actually John's decision to pick her? Whatever. At the end of the day, she is his running mate. That's all that matters.

Yes, every bit as eloquent as obama, but lots more entertaining at the same time. Her meat and potatoes speech generates a lot more gravy....

I laughed. I cried. She knocked it out of the park.

A star was discovered tonight.

I am thrilled.

While wearing lipstick!



Also, here is the link to Rudy Giuliani's speech. If Sarah hadn't spoken tonight Rudy's comments would have been the talk of the night.

He was GREAT!!!
