Okay, if any of you did not watch Sarah Palin's speech last night, go online and WATCH IT!!! It was AMAZING!!! Probably the best speech I've seen from someone in politics. Well...this is my first year really paying attention to it...anyway, it was just really great. FANTASTIC!!! "The difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick." "A writer observed: 'We grow good people in our small towns, with honesty, sincerity, and dignity.' I know just the kind of people that writer had in mind when he praised Harry Truman. "Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown. And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I gues a small-town mayor is sort of like a community organizer, except that you have actual responsibilities." "...there is much to like and admire about our opponent. But listening to him speak, it's easy to forget that this man has authored two memoirs but not a single major law or reform - not even in the state Senate." "And though both Senator Obama and Senator Biden have been going on lately about how they are always, quote, "fighting for you," let us face the matter squarely. There is only one man in this election who has ever really fought for you. In places where winning means survival and defeat means death. And that man is John McCain." "I might add that in small towns, we don't quite know what to make of a candidate who lavishes praise on working people when they are listening, and then talks about how bitterly they cling to their religion and guns when those people aren't listening. We tend to prefer candidates who don't talk about us one way in Scranton and another way in San Francisco." "This is a man [Barack Obama] who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fightin, and never use the word "victory" except when he's talking about his own campain. But when the cloud of rhetoric has passed, when the roar of the crowd fades away, when the stadium lights go out, and those Styrofoam Greek columns are hauled back to some studio lot - what exactly is our opponent's plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he's done turning the waters and healing the planet?" "Harry Reid, the Majority Leader of the current do-nothing Senate, not long ago summed up his feelings about our nominee. He said, quote, 'I can't stand John McCain.' Ladies and gentlemen, perhaps no accolade we hear this week is better proof that we've chosen the right man. Clearly what the Majority Leader was driving at is that he can't stand up to John McCain." I love her more than never before and I'm so excited for the debates. Have you noticed that when Obama speaks, he only does it well when he has a written speech in front of him, AND a teleprompter??? Then, when he's confronted by the media unplanned, with nothing to read from, he stumbles, he pauses, and his answers are completely weak. So, I don't think he's going to do that well during the debates when he has to come up with things on his own. After a convention, the nominee's poll points are supposed to jack up. Obama's did...until Palin was announced the Vice President. Then McCain's was closer. Then, last night when Palin gave her speech, Obama and McCain are now at a tie. And that's only because of the VP. Just imagine what's going to happen when McCain gives his speech tonight! Have you heard the things said about Palin now? My dad told me today that Barack Obama said something along the lines of "Palin denounced Jesus when she put down community organizers because Jesus was the first community organizer." And some people are going to be believing that. I'm sure going to be praying for this year's election. Wouldn't that be awesome if we had like two terms of McCain, then two terms of Palin??? Wouldn't that be FANTASTIC if the first woman president would be a strong, Christian, conservative woman instead of Clinton? Just some thoughts. In Christ,
