The McCain camp wisely let Mrs. Palin play the role of a traditional Vice Presidential candidate in attacking the opposition, and doing so in her own voice. Her dissection of Mr. Obama’s thin Presidential resume was as effective as anyone’s, all the more so because she could compare her own executive experience to the 47-year-old Senator’s.
We hope the campaign now resists any temptation to keep her under wraps. No doubt she will make mistakes on the stump, as everyone does, especially with an embarrassed press corps now looking for any what-is-the-capital-of-Laos-type mistake. But after this week, Mrs. Palin won’t be easy to dismiss as too small for the job.

This is a great close!
I certainly agree!
