I did not stay up to watch Sarah Palin’s speech. I am going to try and catch it online at some point today. I went to be early last night, around 9 pm. When I woke up this morning, I had tons of twitters about the speech! What made me laugh was that I dont think I even need to read a news story about the speech to know what she said, I got it all from my friends on Twitter! So I am pasting some of the tweets below, just for fun: (these are displayed from last to first. start at the bottom and scroll up)
CajunTiger generator is going off, so time for me to call it a night |

Admore “Here is a fact of American politics: If you make us laugh we spread your line for free.” |
loswhit Poor McCain. He picked a winner. But I wouldn’t wanna follow that.Tomorrow night is going to remind all that he’s running, not her. |
||
CajunTiger Palin just ROCKED big time!!! She was absolutely the best pick!!! |
||
readscott very impressed with ms palin. Great speech. Strong stances. Cute laugh. The last one’s definitely the most important. |
||
stevenrussell You haven’t had fun until you watched a Republican give a speech in a newsroom. |
||
timastevens Game on. Obama will not sleep well tonight. The presidential race is getting fun! |
bhillford Pivotal night of the election. McCain now looks like a genius. |
||
loswhit Sarah Palin was nails. Watching it again… |
||
bfarley90 seriously the grfx on the backdrop screen looks like bad powerpoint |
||
tpmorgan lined up an interview with sarah palin tonight…or someone that looks just like her. stay tuned. |
||
bfarley90 for the record I think that the RNC has the cheesiest set I have ever seen for a convention… a speech in front of a black wall?? |
||
TheLadyV one doesn’t have to like country music to be republican right? i’m conservative on some issues but i can’t listen to country for long |
||
TheLadyV No doubt about it – Palin pick has energized Republicans! So far, not a bad move for McCain. Still, lots of time left til Nov 4 |
||
mrsgrasso Ooohhhh Baracuda! |
||
TheLadyV heh. Really good Daily Show comparison of Karl Rove clips praising Palin’s experience but smashing Kaine’s experience |
||
terrystorch Wow, Palin makes McCain look REALLY OLD! Oh, he is really old. |
||
terrystorch Sarah Palin was amazing! Her speach was amazing, her passion real, her convictions solid. I vote for a ticket flip…Sarah for President! |
||
stevenrussell She was good. Can’t wait to see what McCain does to follow that up. I almost wonder if that is going to be a let down after this. |
||
loswhit Cute family. The baby daddy cleaned up well. |
||
TheLadyV This is so great. #rnc08 and #dnc08 speeches are just like really long “yo mama” insults and jokes. anyone have a comparison of best lines? |
loswhit And as she is winding down…after all the one liners…I think she is gonna get hammered by the media.I like her, but her speech’s all hype |
||
dawnnicole I wonder who HER speech writer is.. if she even has one |
||
kemmeyer Who wants to marry Sarah Palin besides me? |
||
rthrush |
||
loswhit She is using her index finger like they taught us to use it at Disneyland. Never point. It is not a good thing in some countries. |
||
TheLadyV Since when does fighting in a war make you qualified for president? My bro-in-law served in Afghanistan & tho I love him, he’s not qualified |
||
loswhit Hey. Did John McCain fight in some war or something? |
||
bhillford Watching Palin knock it out of the park. |
||
TheLadyV LOL – just saw a reference to Caribou Barbie … that’s cruel, just cruel. |
||
stevenrussell I can’t believe she is going after Obama like this with all the baby mama drama going on in her family. Wondering if Obama brings it now. |
||
TheLadyV #rnc08 “using change to promote a career vs career to promote change” Definitely Palin’s best line so far |
||
dawnnicole preach it sistah. |
||
shawnwood she went after the columns – this is classic – I really want to meet her speech writer – good stuff – she is delivering perfectly |
||
loswhit Feisty. Grrrr. Am loving her sauciness but it’s all sauce right now. Let’s talk about what THEY will do. Not what Obama will do. |
||
RobTornoe “Obama doesn’t even want to torture our prisoners!” Woo Woo!!!! |
RobTornoe Boy, the VFW didn’t like her “Iraq” dig on Obama |
||
shawnwood no offense to Cheney, but it would be fun to actually remember we have a vp… |
||
RobTornoe For all the build-up, I think this speech has been pretty lame. Thoughts? |
||
TheLadyV In the caucuses?!? Oh that didn’t help her at all…. |
||
loswhit What were her kids names again? Honey Dew, Water Lilly, and Shooting Star? |
||
TheLadyV Saved half a billion but submitted a proposal for $700 milion in earmakks for AK to stevens earlier this year. Sigh |
||
TheLadyV Oh come ON! I know there MUST more important things that she’s done other than put a plane on ebay and firing the cook!!! Say SOMETHING |
||
dawnnicole she ebay’d the jet. that’s even funnier |
||
loswhit I like her. I have a better idea. Have her run for President. I think she has a better shot than the old guy. |
||
TheLadyV Cute joke. Wonder for how long she’s been saving that one |
||
loswhit My wife is barfing at the fact that I get all up in this stuff. She said she would vote for @ablossom instead of all these fools. |
||
TheLadyV Did she ever actually tell us what the mayor of 5000 people does? |
||
TheLadyV I wish I were a republican speechwriter. Such an easy audience, man. Palin has yet to say anything meaningful. |
||
RobTornoe Haha- guess a protester got in! Where’s Bill Maher when you need him |
||
loswhit WOW!!! DANG!!! She just clowned Obama |
||
cnnbrk Gov. Sarah Palin receives a standing ovation, tells convention she will accept the party’s vice presidential nomination. |
||
dawnnicole she is exactly what this campaign needs |
||
mrsgrasso Loving Palin |
||
RobTornoe Palin IS experienced to be VP…she’s got a wacky, everyday family! from web |
RobTornoe Here, take this baby while Mommie talks about me. |
||
loswhit I swear Palin’s hair is brilliant. Great choice. |
||
TheLadyV Aw. The little palin girl is so cute |
||
TheLadyV Huh. Did john mccain once say that he’d rather lose an election than a war? I feel like maybe I’ve been told he said it. |
||
melissalewis Go Sarah |
||
TheLadyV Just tuning in to #rnc08. Palin looks a touch nervous, but who can blame her? |
||
stevenrussell Kudos to Rudy on a good speech. Too bad no one is going to remember any of it. The main event is up now. |
||
stevenrussell I think she might be more popular than McCain. |
||
dawnnicole she DOES look like Tina Fey! |
||
terrystorch Excited about Sarah Palins speach. Here we go. |
||
confidentblog Watching history happen people. Go Sarah! Yay for a possible first woman VP. |
