Excerpts of Palin's speech tonight.


The theme: Dems look down at me at small town America.

TPM:


Some advance excerpts of Sarah Palin's big speech are now available, and they offer a glimpse of how she'll parry criticism of her lack of experience.
Palin plans to suggest that critics who have said her mayoralty of Wasilla hasn't prepared her for the presidency are snobby about small-town America. Here's the key excerpt:

I had the privilege of living most of my life in a small town. I was just your average hockey mom, and signed up for the PTA because I wanted to make my kids' public education better. When I ran for city council, I didn't need focus groups and voter profiles because I knew those voters, and knew their families, too.

Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown. And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a 'community organizer,' except that you have actual responsibilities.

Dems "look down" on Palin's small-town experience -- that's a good one. At least we know where this is headed. Suppose it's hardly surprising, really.

This looks like one 'allegedly' vindictive person:

Almost Fired

How many other people did she 'allegedly' try to destroy will come crawling out of the woodwork?

Palin used her political clout to her advantage. There is probably more ghost stories about Palin. I will post Palin's speech for Thursaday. I didn't get to watch it. But, I heard she went on the attack on Obama.
