I'm not big into politics but this year has me fired up! I watched both parties VP/P speeches and I gotta' tell you I am so excited to see
Palin on the ticket with McCain. Not because she is a woman (that's a great side-perk) but because she shares my values, morals, and I really think she is what this country needs more of. More common sense legislature, more "normal" people in Washington instead of some out-of-touch
bureaucrat. I feel that her not being in Washington circles is actually a good thing.....she hasn't been
calloused by it.....and she isn't afraid of it either! I just love the fact that all the feminists suddenly have a problem with a working mom.......
hypocrites!
McCain gave a great speech as well and I was moved by it last night. He spoke from his heart and the candidate that I wasn't excited about "having" to vote for (because I hold to those conservative values) won me over BIG TIME! Being "ballsy" enough to slam down on your own party for corruption and loss of trust by the American people.....wow! That spoke volumes and I was impressed and now can't wait to see what his detailed plan is for the next 4 years.
And, by the way, I just love those demonstrators who tired so hard to get the focus off and I thought
McCains response to it was brilliant! "The American people are getting sick and tired of us yelling at each other, OK?"!!!! Too bad the Freedom Of Speech didn't include a clause that doesn't allow for being an idiot about expressing those thoughts!....that kind of protest accomplishes nothing but creating chaos and more division......it's useless and ridiculous. Instead of waving your sign and running down the aisle screaming
obscenities, how about DOING something about it........send care packages to the troops, organize a petition, get a bill before Congress, provide for a debate between the parties.......something!
I love his maverick side and that he isn't afraid of stepping on toes. When I watched
Obama, although it was technically one of the best speeches I've heard, I just didn't believe him and the fact that he is the "golden child" of the liberal media just really boils my blood.
Yep, I'm voting for the experienced war veteran and the pro-life, common-sense, PTA mom!
