From Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah’s speech tonight at the Republican National Convention:

“To the families of special-needs children all across this country, I have a message: For years, you sought to make America a more welcoming place for your sons and daughters. I pledge to you that if we are elected, you will have a friend and advocate in the White House.”
Yes! I dare say that this advocacy position may be a part of the reason that God has raised Sarah Palin up for such a time as this.

“I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a “community organizer,” except that you have actual responsibilities. I might add that in small towns, we don’t quite know what to make of a candidate who lavishes praise on working people when they are listening, and then talks about how bitterly they cling to their religion and guns when those people aren’t listening.”
The Democrats had better quit discussing “experience” or the lack thereof; they lose on that comparison.

“Our opponents say, again and again, that drilling will not solve all of America’s energy problems – as if we all didn’t know that already. But the fact that drilling won’t solve every problem is no excuse to do nothing at all.”
Duh! I can already hear “drill, baby, drill” being repeated at water fountains and in offices all over the country tomorrow.

“The difference between a hockey mom and a bulldog? Lipstick.”

She added that little joke to her prepared speech. I believe Sarah Palin’s going to be a bulldog with lipstick who helps the Republicans win this election —and I hope she helps John McCain govern this country.
