"Knock It Out of The Park"

"Knock it out of the park" --- that's what Republican delegates and elected officials alike say Gov. Sarah Palin is going to do tonight with her speech at the Republican National Convention. If she's going to gain the trust of millions of voters, she's going to have to hit the ball like Josh Hamilton.

Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison today called Palin a "maverick" who is a political "soulmate" to John McCain. An Alaskan delegate told me she's tough and tenacious and wasn't afraid to slash the state's budget, line by line. But the rest of America has seen little but a few video clips of a woman with upswept hair and Tina Fey glasses smiling next to John McCain. Who is Sarah Palin really?

She'll have just 20 minutes tonight to let voters find out. And I bet it will be the highest ratings of the convention.

I have no doubt she will "knock it out of the park". We will see a lot of her on the campaign trail once the convention is over.

She is simply a strong, independent, not afraid to go after the corruption in her own party, college grad, journalist, council person, Mayor, Governor, who married her high school sweetheart (who actually has a REAL job), mother of 5 (one in the military), who chose not to kill her Downs baby, straight talking, successful, conservative, not afraid to speak her mind, stand for what's right and KNOWING what "right" is - WOMAN. And the reason the Democrats hate her and the leftist media boobs continue to create and distribute slander about her.

MY kind of woman.

I'm glad Kay Bailey is now toeing the party line - Friday she didn't know anything about her.

Chard-
She MUST come across as strong tonight to ensure her political survival. This is the most important speech of her career.

Parve,
I think Kay Bailey was taken by surprise on Friday, as were a lot of Republicans. She is really pushing the McCain-Palin partnership now.

Kay Bailey wants to be Governor of Texas - she'll say anything that that the RNC wants her to.

While Palin appears intelligent and obviously ambitious, I still have some reservations.

Her stance on limiting women's right to choose bothers me. I'm afraid she is too much of an unknown right now to make an informed decision.

Josh is a rookie. Tell you what she's going to do, Alice.

Ms palin is going to point to "left field" like Babe Ruth and hit that ball so danged hard and far, Hilliary's supporters will flock to the Republican party in literal droves.

I can't wait to see it.

I can't wait to see her speech. I saw the one from Friday and was literally floored! If it's anything close to what she did on her first day out then I bet it will be a hit.

It better be a home run. Given the feeding-frenzy the DNC-controlled media have been in, she needs to undefine what they have written so far, and then define herself clearly. I will be watching...

Maybe if Sarah strikes out, her daughter Bristol will take the job !

She's knocked everyone out of the news already.
Besides, a pregnant teen looks pretty good compared to some of the crappo in Washington !
