Well, from what I heard while channel flipping....even CNN and MSNBC gave her high marks. I don't think they knew how to respond. They thought she would screw up. She didn't just throw out red meat...she tossed out a herd of cattle.

It was a thing of beauty. Absolutely loved her remark about being the mayor of a little town! LOL
Cruddy News Network already has doubts about whether she'll hold up on the Campaign Trail. Crediting her Speechwriters for the Success of her Speech. Sour Grapes Galore
Indyfella: I don't think the "high tech" lynching the media was attempting is going to work.
I think she sent them a clear warning tonight. Would like to have actually had her say it, but did you hear the response from the audience? The way they all booed the media! Awesome!!!

What would you expect at a Republican convention. Having been in power for so long they have forgotten that they own most of the media.
Glad to hear it Indy.....I don't know who wrote this election but they certainly have a good sense of humour. Pity it is for real but I suppose you can't have everything.
It is actually quite disturbing to see all the hard chaw Republicans in here falling in love so easily. It is exactly what they accuse Danish Dude of......not thinking, uncritical admiration of a flashy novelty.
Where's the beef?.....as a famous (Republican) advert once said.

Heya Falling. It's not unexpected. And hey, she is easy on the eyes. I like women in glasses. That, and there's always the mute button...
Wait till OReilly finishes the interview and the discussion with Obama on the Ayers, Wrights, Pflegers relationships.
Libs will be attacking Palin so hard to keep Obama looking a choir boy.....and Americans will see it.
The spirit of thier attacks show them to be what they are. All Obama can do is 'try be nice' while his supporters show us what Dem party has become under his leadership.
Then the question is do they want a 'nice President' running a country managed by a group of people that are vindictive, ill mannered, PC and biased?
rwantin: Funny, I don't see anyone accusing her of just giving a good speech, but not ready to lead, something I have heard so much of.
I suppose bashing Obama means you are ready to lead - I think she was a Swift Boater as well...
RW a question.
How closely do you think a governor in a state like Alaska would work with their National Guard? Likely a near daily basis would you not say? All those missions, those guys do up there, all need to be approved by someone.
She was the person in the buck stops here seat.
draw the line to either Biden or Obama and tell me where either has similar commander in chief time?
Sure I know it is also foreign relations and foreign diplomancy.
But here is how I see it.
Most of the goods, food, and exports of Alaska flow all long the AlCAN highway. Keeping that open in the winters up there is tough. Now agreed US and Canada relation are like milk and honey compared to some. But it takes a pretty good coordinated effort managed by her to do it. She already has expereince in foreign relationship with Canada over the AlCAN operations.
Lastly imagine, if she is elected. They send her on a 'get to know you tour' of Europe, Middle East and Far East for several weeks. Like the Obama traveling good time show of earlier. Only she is in office and in power. What she says now has some real impact and weight. That is major foreign diplomantic credits for the McCain Administration.
Obama has already shot his bullet here. Now it is shuttle diplomancy for him. Anything that he did, can be passed by Sarah in office. She can go abroad, take the positions of McCain and staff are developing on foreign policy.....and be in the same position like C. Rice has been the last 4 years. With all the sprackle and glitz of Obama's tour.
You don't beat up on a American woman even in the foreign press and certainly not in the high diplomatic circles. Remember how the world reacted to C. Rice treatment in the Sudan? Bingo. She can get things and coalition building on issues and areas we cannot image.
Biden going on a foreign introduction tour is like saying....here want to wear a pair of my old shoes and see if they fit. Biden is well known by them with his length on the foreign service committee.
