Republican National Convention '08

[scaeagles]

By the way, Obama in the last couple days has been commenting on Palin as a mayor of a small town, saying his job managing his campaign is tougher with more people to manage. So it has been fairly recent.

I find no real surprises here. Those predisposed to dislike Palin and who are solidly in the Obama camp didn't like her speech. Those who were predisposed to like her and her speech did. I admit I wanted to like her and her speech. I did. I would figure that unless she came out touting the full democrat agenda there's nothing that's going to change that. For every cry of petty on the dem side toward her, I can shout cries of vacuous and same-old same-old for the Obama speech.

Goodness, why didn't you just read her speech transcript like you did the other guy so you wouldn't be unduly influenced by her teleprompter-reading ability?

I didn't watch the whole thing but I'll agree that she definitely has a fire. Nice contrast (?) to a 72-year-old has-been tottering man, although the thought of seeing a born-again tongue-speaking Pentecostal extremist in the White House who probably can't differentitate Eye-raq from Eye-ran on a map is a really scary.
