On speaking well

I remember two distinct hick ups in Obama’s speech on Thursday night. They threw me off a bit, but he continued through and in the end, the speech was a homerun.

How many hick ups did John McCain have tonight? I lost count.

If it doesn’t matter, then answer me this.
Why were so many people moved by Sarah Palin last night. It’s as if the low expectations manifested by the fact that she is form Alaska or the crud airing on Entertainment tonight actually created a huge opportunity for political capital.
And she cashed in on it like it was ANWAR: just sitting there waiting there to be drilled.

"She presents herself well."
"She speaks so well."
"I like her."

"She's hot."

A person is not allowed to be classified as presenting and speaking well when what they are presenting and speaking are lies.

It is contradictory.

Furthermore, people should not be allowed like, support, adore, lust after or vote for any individual who does this.

Sarah Palin wasnt picked as vice presidential candidate, she was picked as a publicity generator. The McCain people know that sadly, the battle over the american public is just as much about public interest as it is in policy. They were smart enough to know that without some kind of "conservative media machine' the 'whos more exciting' race was dead set on Obama.

Badmouthing Palin is what pushes their agenda- she too easy - the democrats come off as the bad guys. The smartest thing Obama can do is to try and do everything he can to ignore her and bring the focus back to McCain.
