Ahhh ... it gets more interesting

Here's her acceptance speech.


Let's see. She's a mother of five. Has a a few month old child with Down's syndrome, and one old enough to be serving in military. Her introduction of her family took longer than her introduction of herself and her resume. She has cut a lot of spend, but then again, Alaska has one of the most corrupt systems and the highest per capita government spending in the country. Her qualification, a bachelor's degree in Journalism. She mispronounces "nuclear". She says McCain is the only candidate who has ever fought for the country, which seems to be her assigned line of attack in the campaign - to emphasize and hero worship McCain.

The blogs are alive with speculation. Women seem torn and many are reflexively changing sides. Many conservatives are very happy and are falling in line.

Here's an interesting perspective on her experience.
