What is perhaps most striking when you first see and hear Sarah Palin is that she is utterly unpretentious, she is not an elitist, she is like anyone's next door neighbor mom who loves her family and her stands up for what she beleives in. She is "Mrs. America" , Conservative honest and ( dare I say it...) she's much better looking than Hillary. And she is POSITVE. UPBEAT. ENERGETIC. She is a woman who middle America will look at and immediately get the sense of decency and family values that we share in all Conservative communites. Now, to some of those people on the right who are whining and crying and pooping in thier diapers about McCain not having picked someone with more experience..., it's time for you to grow up and get a grip on reality. I'd rather have Sarah Palin in line to be President than either Obama or Biden. Sarah is the kind of common sense citizen-politician that our country's forefathers envisoned serving thier country, then returning to thier families. In fact if I'd be fine with Sarah Palin at the top of the ticket and McCain as "her" VP running mate. I think she'd make a great President starting on day one. But Sarah represents something even more profound. Sarah Palin is a signpost pointing the way back to Conservative vaules as the predominant force of the Republican Party, a Party that has wandered far away from it's base and allowed blue-blood elitists to set a weak agenda of compromise with enemies and moderate values. And Sarah represents what Conservatives have always tried to explain but elitists have never understood. We are not concerned whether our leaders are male or female, black or white, but that the core principles of the individual are rooted in the Conservative values we all share that have made the United States strong and free. Sarah has those Conservative principles.
