Gov. Sarah Palin is impressive

I am thrilled with Sen. John McCain’s selection of Gov. Sarah Palin. I’m so excited that the person with whom Sen. McCain decided he had the most chemistry also happens to be a woman. There is no doubt in my mind that the United States is ready for a female vice president. I am a 22-year-old man now and I remember having a conversation with my mom long ago in which she told me that in the 80s many women couldn’t buy a home without the signature of a man. I remember how angry that made me. Today, we have the opportunity to elect our first female vice president. I admire how she became governor by defeating the Republican incumbent governor in his own primary and a former two-term Democratic governor in the general election. Gov. Palin truly is an independent Republican. When people talk about how Sarah Palin has distanced herself from ineffective and corrupt Republicans in her own state, it’s true! Gov. Palin didn’t just avoid being photographed with corrupt Republicans; she ran against them and beat them! I think Gov. Palin is extremely impressive and my mom and I can’t wait to cast our votes for the McCain/Palin ticket!
