Sarah Palin

Could we ASK for anyone better than Sarah Palin as VP nominee? She certainly believes everything I believe in. She can even hunt moose and shoot an automatic gun better than most men I have seen in some ridiculous photo-op trying to make them look manly!! This is no prissy little girl! Look, either you can shoot it or you can't. I imagine most people, men or women, wouldn't know how to shoot a weapon like this unless there is specific training or need to know how to shoot one. DH can shoot these...but he has trained for years on how to use these weapons.

She may not be the most 'experienced' out there, but isn't a fresh idea what we want? I was raised to honor a strict value system and if something is wrong, well then you do something about it or punish those involved for said 'wrong'. This is part of her attractiveness as a candidate....She hasn't been around long enough to play the game, and still manages to get a lot done, in a short amount of time. Can you believe it??? She was just city council woman 5 yrs ago and is now on a national ticket? Incredible! What a proud family she must have!!!

How can we NOT vote for her after everything we know about her. Her family, her son in Iraq (no pouting mama there!) raising a special needs baby that she JUST gave birth to and was back at work 3 days later!! She runs her state govt like a business and when there was too much $$, she gave it back to the citizens of AK. No crazy spending, no crazy projects to return favors.....

And, though John McCain wasn't the perfect candidate, he had my vote over the alternative. It took guts to nominate her....or maybe brains. Whatever the motive, and I am sure there were/are many, it was a good move. They have my vote.

Ok - I am tall enough....time to get off my soap-box. Vote for McCain/Palin.
