Palin accepts nomination

boring speech. few real ideas, just the same old Bush-republican smear tactics. Sad to think this is the best person McCain could find.

I agree. She seems so smug making her little offhand nasty remarks. Bad choice for VP.

She's really pimping her children isn't she? Even invited young Levi to the photo ops. I think most intelligent women (i.e. the type of women who actually vote) aren't too impressed with this ditzy bimbo.

I hear you. I was on the fence until McCain chose Palin...now I'm with Obama. Tired of the same old same old. Keep hearing how Obama does not have experience...well Bushie had PLENTY of experience and look how he screwed us up. If lack of experience gets our country and MI in particular out of this economic mess - I'm all for less experience.

Yes, I also thought so but I did not want to sound "catty". I am a female voter - I was Hillary all the way but now...McCain has lost me thinking that Palin would bring in my vote...sorry...I would appreciate a really strong, confident, female in the white house be it pres or VP...but Palin...I think not.

If you want boring, replay the Obama or Biden speech. This speech rocked the house and was truly amazing. The country will be talking about her speech well after the McCain/Palin ticket has been elected to the Presidency!!!!!!!!!!

Hahaha. Dream on, JNH. Dream on.

This is exactly what we need in D.C.! A loving, strong, real-life person who understands the values that make America the best country on Earth. What America doesn't need is another trash-talking liberal socialist who will do nothing but bury this country in high taxes and grow the government into a Marxist regime.

McCain/Palin!

Obama can go back to his Illinois commie buddies!

I thought it was very well delivered. Nuttin to it if you take out the military references, the smears and the usual republican lies like the ever present death tax even though 99% of republicans and democrats will never loose a nickle.
Oil independence...what a joke. They have had all their lives to do this. They have given more tax breaks to big oil and the amount of imports just increase.
Those fools still think that Alqueda lives in Iraq. I got news for ya. They don't.
According to my count in the abbreviated convention the Republicans have used military references and fear 1087 times and they haven't stopped yet.

Where the hell have you been these past 8 years of bushie? Hello - wake up...liberals burying us? Bush has so screwed this country up and he is not a liberal. McCain and Palin are going down!

What a great pick. She's not for big government like Obama. You losers that vote for Obama obviously don't work or you wouldn't vote for him. Democrats are for people that can't run their own life and need someone to run it for them. I don't want my taxes raised because you guys are too dumb and immature to run your own life. GROW UP!

she repeated her same lines from earlier this week alot, I was very bored. Not to mention she has one of the most annoying voices. I thought both her and guilianni were both overly cocky. I will say she had solid delivery, I was ready for it to be over long before it was. I also wanted her to address how she planned juggle her family and one of the most time consuming jobs. As and undecided voter she convinced me of nothing except she has a loud mouth. I felt much more touched and connected to the speeches and emotion with the DNC.

The GOP has a very interesting approach: Simply lie right in the face of the voter. Then, while the Dems waste valuable time rebuking it, formulate the next lie. This broad supported the "bridge to nowhere", she claims she did not. She requested the highest per-capita handout from Congress, yet she claims to despise earmarks. She talks about ethics and is getting investigated in her own state. Lies, Lies, Lies.

BTW I was once president of a neighborhood association, so I have more executive experience that half of Congress. I should be qualified to have my finger on the nuclear button.

And they keep speaking of a "Do-Nothing" Congress. Isn't McCain a member of that Congress?

Good points. Too bad McCain chose her - knocked me off the fense.

Bush isn't running for a third term, although you liberals like to equate McCain with Bush. I will agree with you on this one point; Bush has not been a good commander-n-chief, outside of his keeping your butt safe. McCain/Palin will not be anything like the Bush term. I would rather elect a team with morals, experience, and a love of country than elect some smooth-talking, socialist from the depths of the Left-Hand-Path!

Hey Jody, you sound really smart basing your decision from the tone of her voice and that she is a modern woman of 2008 with a career and family. This isn't the 1950's! wake up! She's going to be the V.P. not the president. It's sad to think you base your decisions off of emotion and not facts.

hey woodsprite, I suggest you invest in buying spellcheck.

Hey woodtvsucks, remember when clinton told us he did not have sex with that fat thing? I bet you still supported him even though he lied to you.

You dems are absolute morons for believing the talking points, excuse me, lies of the Democratic party. You are all like a donkey being led by a carrot on a pole. I think that is why your mascot is a **** .
