That was some speech Palin gave...

Sarah Palin's speech was good talk ... She zinged old Barak, but said nothing of substance. 
If she really wanted to introduce herself to the country the right way, she should explain why she flip-flopped on the infamous "Bridge to Nowhere," explain why Clinton is a whiner and she isn't, explain why she and her husband get a pass explaining how they parent with a teen-age pregnant daughter and why the city she was the mayor of had more than $20 million in debt after she left. See, that's riveting television for those of us who care about issues. 
Before you ask, I'm not beating up on the 17-year-old. It is her parents' judgement I'm calling into question. By the way, when is the wedding?
Then there was the washed up Rudy Giuliani. When the only arrow you have in your quiver is how you responded on 9/11/01 — you need to get a life — not another wife — a life. 
Old Sarah girl had some great one-liners, but it's going to take more than one-liners to get to the White House. The difference between a pit bull and hockey mom may be lipstick, but the difference between a winner and a loser is substance. Her speech motivated me ... to go help Obama!
