    Palin's speech

    Ok ! Hear we go again the same old Republican speech she gave many reasons not to vote for the democrats but no reason to vote for the republicans but this year folks empty rhetoric means nothing I have to laugh at the news media all they talk about is how exciting it is to have a woman on the ticket but what about substance as usual the media is caught up in the history of it and not the reality that palin is just a puppet for the republican right. John MCcain is not a maverick he folded to the right wing just to be elected president I was reminded of the last 8 years of economic, foriegn, and moral decline of our country I feel our country no longer cares about whats right only about what sounds good.
