Sarah Palin won the election for McCain-Palin tonight. They are exactly what Americans need at this crucial time in the history of the USA.

I don't think people from Cleveland or Denver are any dumber than small town people. Do you?

Reaction From the Floor \| 11:17 p.m. Brent J. Andersen, a delegate from Auburn, Mass., tells our Pat Healy on the floor: “I’m thrilled with Sarah. I think she did an absolutely fantastic job, I think she’s showing America who she is, what she and John McCain are going to accomplish, and how they’re going to do it. I think she has absolutely hit a home run with this speech, and it should silence some of her critics and show America why she should be the next vice president.”

By ELISABETH BUMILLER and MICHAEL COOPER Published: September 3, 2008 ST. PAUL — Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska introduced herself to America before a roaring crowd at the Republican National Convention on Wednesday night as “just your average hockey mom” who was as qualified as the Democratic nominee, Senator Barack Obama, to be president of the United States. ............ “Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown,” Ms. Palin told the ecstatic delegates in a speech that eviscerated Mr. Obama. “And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a ‘community organizer,’ except that you have actual responsibilities.” As the crowd cheered its approval, Ms. Palin went on: “I might add that in small towns we don’t quite know what to make of a candidate who lavishes praise on working people when they are listening, and then talks about how bitterly they cling to their religion and guns when those people aren’t listening.” Ms. Palin was referring to Mr. Obama’s experience as a community organizer in Chicago before he served in the Illinois legislature and was elected to the United States Senate in 2004 as well as comments he made at a fundraiser in California about bitter rural voters who “cling” to guns and religion.
