Go Palin!


I just have to say that I am so impressed with this women! I first heard about her back in January from a popular Alaskan blogger and was intrigued with what she wrote about her so I started googling her and soon became very impressed. I was impressed that she is a very strong women who cares about doing what is right first and foremost. She is tough and can stand up to anyone and anything no matter how enormous. And she actually gets the things she sets out to do done. She is not afraid to say what she means and is very genuine in her politics. She doesn't play the game. However, when McCain announced her as his running mate I thought it was cool but I was kind of skeptical that it was his smartest choice. I don't know how the rest of you feel but ever since Romney was out for the running my hope has dwindled for the near future of our country. I didn't dislike McCain but I didn't love him either but I knew for sure I couldn't stand Obama and it is unbelievable to me that people don't see right through the creep. I hoped that McCain could defeat him in the coming election but I haven't been so sure he could. So the only reason I wasn't ecstatic about his choice was because I wasn't sure she would boost his votes. I thought it was kind of risky. At the same time I was impressed with McCain for his choice and it helped boost his approval in my eyes but I was still a little skeptical as to whether they could get elected. After hearing Sarah Palin's speech tonight I think they can do it but I really don't care because in my heart I know they are the best candidates for our country and I finally have hope again. I really feel like they have a chance and that is exciting but in the end I am just happy to be for someone again. With Palin by his side I think McCain will do a great job as President. I feel if people really find out for themselves what they are about they will know that they should be the next President and Vice President of the United States and I am excited to be able to really feel passionate about my vote this November.

If you missed her speech tonight I highly recommend you watch it here. You won't be disappointed. She is one tough cookie who is not afraid to fight!!!!

Last night I couldn't help but contrast the feel I get from Sarah Palin versus Hilliary Clinton. I am very impressed that she comes out and says things that most seasoned Washington politicians would stay away from. She took on the media's holy messiah (OBAMA)with boldness and that makes me happy. Pay attention to the backlash and unfairness she'll get from the media.

Her speech the other night was my first real exposure to her and I found myself really enjoying it. I can't believe the media backlash the last few days though! -- I guess that's how you know it was a good speech.
