Thanks for posting this.
One thing which I think cheapened Palin's speech a bit was her swipe at Michelle Obama. But this was a Convention speech; the point is to get everyone fired up. Palin came out swinging, she showed everyone that she's got game.
The *true* test will be the Biden-Palin debate.

Yeah.. I'm wating for that..

I'm an Obama supporter.. but i was willing to listen. I wa curious how she would do..

Another thing that really bothered me was her calling Iraq a "near Victory". Reminded me of when Bush stood on the aircraft carrier and declared victory..

Iraq, by no means, is near victory nor will it ever be. Once we leave it's a free for all.. and it's a country run over by extremists etc.. it's a mess...

People in small towns "love their country, in good times and bad, and they're always proud of America."

This article is great. Too bad people don't care about the facts.

MY eyes almost rolled to the back of my head after I heard Romney say, this country needs a Conservative washington, not a liberal washington. Seriously, what the hell have the last 8 years been???
