I’m usually very politically-minded, and so far have done a good job keeping my opinions to myself on this blog. Last night, however, this woman jumped out at me and wowed me so much I have to speak out.

A commenter on another post says it much better than I can: “They say McCain reads the blogs, so here goes — Senator McCain- Don’t let the campaign kibbitzers muddle things up. First and foremost, Sarah Palin shares your values. She killed the bridge to nowhere. Need we say more? As for the politics, Sarah Palin transcends geography. Her constituency, like yours, goes beyond state lines. She will get your ticket access to voters all over the country based on who she is and what she stands for. Because she’s young, a woman, a mother with young kids, she will grab media attention more than any other potential candidate. Gov. Palin also has a son in the active duty military. You have very wisely taken your son’s service in Iraq off the table as a campaign talking point. That is and should be respected. But others can talk about it and reflect on what it means. A McCain-Palin administration would be the first in memory which has family members in uniform during wartime from both the President and Vice President. That would be a powerful statement as to the importance of national service, especially in uniform. Most importantly, any Vice President should be ready to step up and serve in the event she is needed. Frankly, who is really ever ready? Gov. Palin is as ready as anybody, she is a quick learner, and in her public career has exhibited the courage and decisiveness needed for a great leader. Godspeed to you in your campaign and in making this important decision.”

I’m a 52 year old woman who supported Hillary’s campaign. I’m also registered as an independent. I can’t bring myself to vote for Obama, but it will leave a bad taste in my mouth if I have to vote for two white guys on the Republican ticket. The more I learn about Sarah Palin, the more ethusiastic I am to vote Republican! Palin is the wow factor that McCain desparately needs.

I can see it all now, Alaska Gov Sarah Palin’s husband, Todd, introducing Sarah as the next Vice President of the United States at the Republican National Convention later this summer, to the tune of Shania Twain’s “She’s Not Just a Pretty Face”. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMlcZDorjuE Just imagine!!! (Dems, eat your heart out)

Palin has stated that she has gay friends, and is receptive to gay and lesbian concerns about discrimination. While the previous administration did not implement same-sex benefits, Palin complied with a state Supreme Court order and signed them into law. Palin’s first veto was used on legislation that would have barred the state from granting benefits to gay state employees and their partners. In effect, her veto granted State of Alaska benefits to same-sex couples.

Maybe You Republicans need to read up on your lady a little more before you get too excited. Tried to use her power to get ex- in law cop fired. SHE AINT NO HILLARY!! Watch out lady Dems, she believes in NOTHING Hilary does, she has no experience and god forbid she end up our first woman president, she’ll ruin it for generations to come. Check her record on womens issues.
