Palin: Fresh Breeze In Wisconsin

Leadership: Sarah Palin hit it out of the park in a speech this past weekend in Wisconsin. She dazzled because, of all things, she reached out to her opponents. When was the last time we saw that coming out of the White House?
Amazingly, Palin's words offered common ground between Tea Party taxpayers and public employee union members, who've until now been at odds with Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker's attempt to balance the state budget.
"What I have to say today I say it to our good patriotic brothers and sisters who are in unions ... a pension is a promise that must be kept. Now, your Governor Scott Walker understands this. He understands that states must be solvent in order to keep their promise. And that's what he's trying to do. He's not trying to hurt union members. Hey, folks, he's trying to save your jobs and your pensions!"
In short, she came to save, not to cut, and in the finest example of bipartisan bridge-building since President Reagan made allies of blue-collar workers, she reached out to the very people whose hirelings tried to drown her speech out with obscenities.

Just a random thought:
I’d cast a net for Freepers for VP than any of the usual suspects.
Just sayin.

Sarah hit it out of the park but the thug union leaders and hard core didn’t want to hear it, she got it across anyway.

..and then they took their $50 payoffs and got back on their buses and headed home like the whipped dogs that they are.

And, in a stunning bit of mendacity, he warned that "children with autism or Down's syndrome" would suffer against "every millionaire and billionaire in our society." This was a clear shot at Sarah, using Trig against her. What a low-class POS!

When the only criticism opponents come up with is “I don’t like her voice” you know it was a walk-off grand slam.

I liked her voice in that speech. Made her sound truly genuine and heart felt.
