What They’re Saying About Palin
Senator Dole remarked how historic it is to have the opportunity to elect the first female vice-president. Senator Burr commented on her strong pro-life conservatism and her proven track record of reform and transparency in Alaska. He referred to her as an “excellent” pick. Congresswoman Virginia Foxx sent out a press release this afternoon praising the pick, saying “Senator John McCain’s selection of Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate shows that he is serious about shaking up the status quo in Washington .”
In South Carolina, Senator DeMint also echoed Palin’s record on reform as well as her strong conservative credentials. Congressman Inglis was impressed by Palin’s reform efforts in Alaska because she took on the corruption in her own party. State House Speaker Bobby Harrell was stunned by the announcement and thinks she will make an excellent Vice-President. Governor Sanford called her a “fearless advocate for good government in Alaska.”
My personal opinion is that Palin was an excellent pick. She has an 83% approval rating as Governor of Alaska, which is beyond phenomenal. She is highly respected among conservatives, which was a weak part of the base for McCain. Additionally, she is a strong, outspoken, and accomplished woman which is sure to attract like minded women to McCain. And it doesn’t hurt that she is a total MILF.
I mean, seriously, how can you vote against this??
