Sarah Palin - can she do more than just worry the Democrats

I have watched Barack Obama's speeches and most impressive they are too. However when he speaks without a script he is dire, truly dreadful. Take a look at his off the cuff speaking, there are plenty of examples on the internet and some on this site. Now take a look at Sarah Palin's acceptance speech, no notes just belief, fluency and passion. You can see an excerpt from this speech in the following piece of video from PUMA




There is an interesting thread on Hillary Clinton Forum entitled:

"(August 29, 2008) - Action Items: 1) Donate to McCain to affirm Palin pick; 2) Stay vigilant for all sexism against Palin"

Paul F. Villarreal, a big poster on the Hillary Clinton Forum goes on to say:

"Donate to John McCain and Sarah Palin, and let them know you love this pick and are thrilled that McCain showed Palin the respect that Democrats, and Barack "You're likable enough" Obama in particular, NEVER showed Hillary Clinton:

Show McCain, Palin and America that you support women in the executive branch!

There are already stunning, sexist attacks against Palin all over the kook blogosphere. Daily Kos is comparing her with Dan Quayle, implying that she is mere eye candy, likely kind of dim-witted, and totally disrespecting her and all women.

Palin was both a mayor and a governor of the largest state in America. And these pigs are just dismissing her as though she were some joke in glasses.

The only party that's dissed a high-profile woman recently is the Democratic Party. What they did both in rigging the system so Hillary could not win the nomination and what Obama did in utterly disrespecting Hillary by not even vetting her for the VP was unconscionable. A disgrace.

Today, we have a ticket that respects women as equals and recognizing their full worth.

Please, donate to that ticket today and show America that you appreciate this historical McCain/Palin combination, and that you want to help bring America its first-ever female Vice President.

The glass ceiling is cracking. Let's shatter it!"
