A Pit Bull in Lipstick

I like this woman! She is not afraid to fight. As a hockey fan, I tend to agree with Gov. Palin when she said, "What is the difference between a pit bull and a hockey mom? Lipstick!" She gave numerous jabs at the Obama campaign and kept a smile on her face. One of my favorite lines was when she compared her job as a mayor to a community organizer but pointed out that a mayor has actual responsibilities. Many detractors have said that Palin hurts McCain's argument that Obama does not have enough experience. I disagree. Sarah Palin has more executive leadership than the Obama ticket combined. Her town may be small and her state may have more moose than people, but she has faced the same problems as executive leaders across the country. She brings a breath of fresh air to the stale environment of D.C. and I am excited to watch this election unfold now that Sarah Palin is a part of it all.
