    I couldn't watch her speech. Can anyone give me an objective opinion of her performance?
    thx.
    I'm about as objective as they come. I've voted Republican the past 8 years, and have just started to lean more towards the middle.

    I was hoping for Palin to come out with a great introductory speech, but I'm very very dissapointed. She's picked it up a bit here towards the end, but a lot of what she is saying is just not making any sense.

    She's shoring up the base, but I don't know how this will play with those in the middle.
    I think we will see a nice bump in the polls for McCain/Palin...

    Remember, something like 80% of the people agree with getting more energy rather than what the democrats plan. In fact, i see a growing possibility of the democrats losing many seats in the house and senate just over the energy issue.

    This speech won't bring in many outside of the base. She's hasn't said anything that we haven't heard 100 times before.

    I thought Biden was going to have to hold back in debates but now I see he can just go all out on this girl lol. After this speech no one is going to feel sorry for her.
    UI'm sure she can hold her own, and without a teleprompter...

    Damn, I didn't know I'd be in the minority about Rudy.
    Rudy did a fine job, best speech of the night. He knocked Obama off of the political pedestal he put himself on and put him in the political highchair he belongs in. Best speech of the convention.

    It's only natural for Obamanites and lefties to take exception to that.

    From the middle it wan't so great. It was a red meat speech. I still haven't heard anything but danger, raising taxes, hockey moms, and pipe laying.

    I just don't like Rudy.
    Mature take, sounds like an excerpt from an arguement between a couple of 4 year old kids.

    I guess I'm wasting a vote on Bob or Ron. It really doesn't matter in Texas anyway.

    I used to work for the guy. I think I have more of a take on him than you'll ever know.

    Good for you, doesn't change the fact that you sounded like a little kid

    I think she did good. I think the campaign overplayed the attack dog angle with her. It's hard to feel sympathy for an attack dog.

    Anyway, I was wholly unimpressed with her. She hit the bullet points, she stirred the pot and overused sarcasm.

    Sarcasm is funny in this forum, not on the national stage.

    But really, I just found the speech bland and underwhelming. Go ahead and label me a liberal.

    BTW, was it just me or was there lik a grand total of 500 people there? Empty house, for sure.

    She did okay, but I was hoping for more.

    John to the rescue.
