With the Republican National Convention now going strong I want to start a blog on day to day thoughts on this convention. With the addition of Governor Sarah Palin to the ticket and her accepting the nomination tonight, what do you think? I believe that after Sarah Palin accepts the nomination and hits a home run, women will change their tune on this selection and ask themselves, “Hillary Who?”
In any case I believe that this is a historic convention. We have the possibility of having the first female vice president. This is a direct hit for Obama, who wouldn’t even consider Hillary Clinton for Democratic ticket. Liberal women have a choice to make. Will they continue supporting a party that disrespects a woman who garnered 18 million votes in the primaries and won every major state needed to win the general election?
This also sets up a possible female vs female election. Pending McCain’s win in November, Palin vs Clinton is a very real possibility in 2012 or 2016.
McCain’s choice of Sarah Palin was brilliant. McCain has proven to women he respects them and believes it’s time for women to be represented in our White House. That, my friend, is the real party of CHANGE - and that is the Republican Party. The Democratic Party has shown disrespect towards women and minorities. I don't know why you would stick around for that any longer.
The Republicans have appointed more women and minorities to positions of power in the last eight years than the Democrats have done in the history of this country. Do the names Powell and Rice ring a bell? How about Palin? History will be made in this election and it will not be the first bi-racial president elected. It will be a war hero becoming President of the United States and The Governor of Alaska who happens to be a woman becoming the first female vice president.
The first day of the convention went well. There was even a Democrat as one of the key speakers. This is significant because Joe Lieberman was the VP nominee for the Democratic party in 2000 for none other than for Mr. Al “Global Warming” Gore himself. He has decided to not vote the party line, but he’s decided to vote for the most qualified. The light resume of Barack Hussein Obama has made it apparent that John McCain is much more qualified. The more you compare the two, the more the distinction is made. Obama’s ties to convicted criminals and past cocaine use just make things worse for the liberal candidate.
Sarah Palin has been attacked on many different levels since her selection on Friday. She is more qualified to be President than Barry. She is a state governor. She has been a mayor of a town, She has deployed the Alaskan National Guard. Governor Palin’s son is a great American who will deploy to Iraq on September 11.
Obama can’t touch Palin’s experience and patriotism.
I hope the main stream media can stop beating up on women for awhile and start reporting the facts. The fact is the media can't elect a president. Only the American people can only do that.
Here in the "No Bull Zone" what do you think about the convention? The choice of Sarah Palin? How about the meltdown of the mainstream media on this issue?
I was watching MSNBC last night and Speaker Gingrich punked out an MSNBC reporter Ron Allen’s. Allen stated that Palin’s “resume is not something we're familiar seeing with presidential candidates.” Gingrich called Ron Allen’s question baloney, and then went on to say…
She has a stronger resume than Obama. She's been a real mayor, he hasn't. She has been a real governor, he hasn't. She's been in charge of the Alaskan National Guard, he hasn't. She was a whistleblower who defeated an incumbent mayor. He has never once shown that kind of courage. She's a whistleblower who turned in the chairman of her own party and got him fined $12,000. I've never seen Obama do one thing like that. She took on the incumbent governor of her own party and beat him, and then she beat a former Democratic governor in the general election. I don't know of a single thing Obama's done except talk and write.
Allen was unable to defend Obama and ended the interview.
This is going to get very interesting and this is the discussion you don't need to hold back on. Just say it - no PC - and all I ask is that you be nice.
