I can’t imagine any political leader in modern times has gone from obscurity to the most anticipated RNC speech in decades in less than one week.
These people love Sarah Palin, and they cannot wait to let her know. And in a few hours, they will get their chance. The flood of emotions will likely be incredible.
And the Northeast media’s arrogant and sexist treatment of this accomplished American governor has outraged people here, and I suspect, Americans everywhere. As usual, their best efforts are backfiring, but this may take the cake. The net effect here has been a massive increase in support for Palin, which seemed hard to imagine since Republicans were practically dancing in the streets the day she was announced.
I could be wrong, but I think the roof is gonna come off the Xcel Center tonight. With what we got to see of her last Friday, it’s hard to imagine that tonight’s performance won’t solidify her status as a superstar.

Northeast media? All media outlets from north, south, east and west have questioned her experience and knowledge to lead on day one. It would be the same if she were a male. The gossip surrounding her daughter’s pregnancy is unfortunate, but I think it would be equally reported if she were a male candidate new to the national scene.
Further, I don’t find the media arrogant, I find them informative. If they don’t report her past, who will?

Let’s hope she goes back to obscurity. That’s what the liberal media wants.
