I just finished watching Sarah Palin give her big talk to the RNC tonight and as one who generally has a firm grasp on the obvious, I think we got a winner here!
She sure can deliver a speech and probably a lot more than that by the looks of it. But, first we have to get her and McCain elected to the White House. That’s going to be tough, but I do believe the momentum has shifted to their side now and a good part of that was due to her surprise entry.
Projecting down the road, like I often do, I think if she makes this big election hurdle in four years she will be the heir to White House. After all McCain will be almost 77 and this might be the time for him to leave office and pass the baton to Palin. Now wouldn’t that frost Hillary? Wow! This would be Hillary’s worst case scenario. History would recognize Sarah Palin as our first woman vice president and to make it worse, Hillary would have to run against a younger and more vibrant woman with 4 years of White House experience and incumbent status.
But, first things first! Our focus now must be to get McCain elected, then we can deal with the rest, like setting the kind of example that will renew Republican core values and put us back on the track that Reagan built and that led republicans into a majority in Congress. We need our Republican Party back on that conservative track because what we have in Congress right now won’t take us very far. We deserve better and we need republicans in Congress that will follow through on the promises that got them there in the first place! A maverick like Palin is just the kind of conservative leadership we need to get going.
