never did that before.....

I'm 44 years old. I've watched bits and pieces of political conventions over the years. And I've usually tried to watch the speeches of the presidential candidates. But I've never intentionally tuned in to watch a vice presidential candidate speak - until Wednesday night.

By now there have been accolades given to and pot shots taken at Sarah Palin for her speech. And I know what I say doesn't amount to a hill of beans when it comes to who will end up at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue next January. But I have to say that Sarah Palin not only knocked it out of the park, she hit the thing so far that it's still rolling. She was poised, intelligent, and sincere.

There, that's as political as I'll ever get on here.....
