Granted, I didn't do a count but I am struck with how little Sarah Palin spoke about Sarah Palin. Let's see, I learned the names of her kids and her husband's career, union membership and hobbies - all info I already had. Oh, I found out that Hockey Moms and Pitbulls differ it their use of lipstick.

So what did Sarah focus on? Obama. Wow, we are all being fooled thinking he's a saviour and the wise folks in Minneapolis know he's the anti-Christ.

I guess McCain has his Pitbull. She was wildly sarcastic and took every potshot she could as well as telling more lies and distortions than I could keep up with.

Of course Buchanan said she knocked it out of the park and that she was electric and interesting - and a much stronger personality than Biden.

Matthews has noted that she didn't go into reproductive rights, etc.
Actually, he sort of missed the boat... she really didn't go into anything much about her.

Oh the HUGEST lie was that she would be an advocate for Special Needs kids and their families. Can you believe that? This is a woman who cut funding on a nonprofit home for teen moms.

Joe Biden..is treat her as an equal sparring
partner. She drew blood. He must hit back. She wanted in the game. She needs to put her big girl clothes on, and go outside and play with the big boys and quit whining to the press. What she claimd Hillary did.

McCain/Palin have no platform. Their platform is that Obama is the devil and unfortunately for a lot of people this is enough, a ten second long platform that requires no thought process. What about the environment which was a hot button issue up until last month? What about the economy, job loss to overseas companies, relations with Iran, the war, health care reform? These are huge issues going unaddressed by McCain.

My 9 year old on her own wrote a poem about Sara Palin after listening to her speeches. Here it is:

Hockey Mom
Sarah Palin
Lipstick
KaPow
That’s Sarah Palin
Sarah Palin wears Lipstick
Red Lipstick!
Sarah Palin lives in Alaska
Drill Baby Drill,

-by Elizabeth Egbert

I think she encapsulated the substance of Sarah Palin quite well. Kids have a way of getting to the root of the issue.
Thought I'd share this with you after reading your blog.
