Palin Pick for McCain VP
Notes from Friday, August 29
Obviously, the buzz of the day is about Senator John McCain’s vice presidential pick - Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska. I can tell you that the people I have spoke with about Senator McCain’s choice have been very excited. As I wrote earlier in the week I have noticed a real sense of excitement growing as the week progressed and today’s announcement only added to the excitement. This was a real GRAND SLAM choice for Senator McCain.
I am sure there will be more than enough information about Gov. Palin available through other media sources, but here are just a few of the things that people are excited about in relation to her.
1. She brings an exciting element to the ticket.
2. She has cut taxes and fought corruption in state government.
3. She pushed through a strong ethics reform bill in Alaska.
4. She supports exploring our natural resources in an effort to gain energy independence.
5. She is an avid sportswoman that understands the need to protect the environment.
6. She will be a tremendous boost to the American family.
7. She is a strong Pro-Life advocate, and is a mother of five.
8. Her oldest son is a member of the armed forces. (He will be heading to Iraq on Sept. 11)
9. May appeal to disenfranchised voters from the other party.
Senator McCain’s move today provides the Republican Party with a new boost of energy and excitement. Click here for more information.
