Sarah Palin’s speech portrayed Obama as someone who only talks to working class people “when they’re listening” and said she got rid of the gubernatorial jet and private chef when she became Alaskan Governor.
Fox News quoted her as saying: “I’m not a member of the permanent political establishment. And I’ve learned quickly, these last few days, that if you’re not a member in good standing of the Washington elite, then some in the media consider a candidate unqualified for that reason alone,” she said. “But … here’s a little news flash for those reporters and commentators: I’m not going to Washington to seek their good opinion — I’m going to Washington to serve the people of this country.”
“She also jabbed at Obama for telling California donors during the Democratic primary that small-town voters “cling” to things like religion and guns out of bitterness.
“We prefer candidates who don’t talk about us one way in Scranton and the other way in San Francisco,” she said.”

I wonder whether Sarah Palin has the skills and ability to be a good parent, who can provide good guidance to her children especially with regard to unwanted teenage pregnancy.
Yeah! I lay awake last night worrying about that too Marty…..
Let us all hope Palin never gets an opportunity to put her trigger finger on the Presidental nuclear war button.She sounds worse than Bush!
God, I despair with the Americans. Still stuck in the culture wars and now about to eschew a chance, in electing Obama and Biden, to re-engage with the world in a positive way. An American colleague told me a few months ago that if Republicans could find a way of smearing Obama racially without appearing to do so, they would jump at it. Enter “I’m just a downhome hockey mom” Sarah Palin. A pretty, white, gun-loving, god-fearing ball of fear, hate and resentment. America sinks ever deeper into global irrelevance and Putin smacks his lips. What a cesspool of a country.
