Thought I Didn’t Notice McCain - Palin Are Ahead?

Monday, September 8th, 2008

No, I noticed, have been taking a break from blogging over the weekend.  But I didn’t miss the fact that McCain had more viewers of his comparatively humble but powerful acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention.  Yes, it was a great night for Obama when he spoke, a great show, I really enjoyed it and as I have shared, commend him on his accomplishment as far as being the first black American to run for President, but the winds have shifted a bit as far as who is in the lead in the race to the White House.

Obama is a wonderful man, but he is out-experienced by McCain, and it is going to show in the days to come. More on that another time, here is John McCain’s acceptance speech in 5 parts. No, he is not the power speaker Obama is, or Sarah Palin is, but he has a LOT of content:

Speech by Sarah Palin at Republican National Convention 2008

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

Here’s the woman that everyone was waiting to hear from telling it like it is in her own words. I am going to find the speeches by Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee and will add them later.


Sarah Palin, Alaska’s Hockey Mom, Hits it Out of the Park!

Wow, what a speech!  I am speechless!  I am in awe.  Literally, I don’t know what to say.  I will be back to add Sarah’s speech in case you missed it, and to give credit to the person who gets speeches up on YouTube faster than anyone I know.

Sarah spoke clearly, with poise, never cowering under all the attacks she has received in the press, and clearly showed her experience and that she is the right person to stand beside John McCain when THEY BECOME President and Vice President of the United States.

History has been made again this week as Sarah Palin is the first female Republican Vice President to ever be nominated.

Wonderful, brilliant evening…and Fox News, I did watch it on your station, your still my favorite in spite of my earlier post.


FOX NEWS! Mitt Romney & Mike Huckabee Are Speaking!

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

I’ve had to change to MSNBC so I can listen to Mitt Romney give an excellent speech because you, FOX NEWS, are to busy keeping up your usual programming.  I love FOX, but you’re disappointing me tonight….and now here’s Mike Huckabee, and you’re skipping him, too!

There’s more to the Republican National Convention than Sarah Palin!!

Republican National Convention Day 2 = Day 1

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

The Republication National Convention really got started today, I just finished listening watching Laura Bush praise her husband and our President; watching our President, George Bush, speak by satellite; watched a moving tribute to Ronald Reagan; listened as Thompson gave a great speech highlighting events in John McCain’s life, including his POW experience with details I had not heard before…also did a few comparisons between the two candidates, and finally, there was a speech by Joe Leiberman who stated he was speaking as a Democrat for a Republican.  I get a little confused, as I thought he was an Independent, must be one of those political twists I just don’t understand, but the speech was well done, very well done.

Like the first nights of the Democratic convention, I enjoyed it, but was not swept off my feet by anything.  I wasn’t any more convinced than I already am to vote for my party.

Tomorrow night we have our Vice Presidential Candidate who has been tossed around in the media all day today speaking, it should be an interesting night!

More tomorrow!
