~WOW~

Last night I watched the replay of Sarah Palin's speech at the RNC. I'm not "that" into politics but goodness I was glued to the TV. For very selfish reasons I'm a Republican. In years past, I never picked a side, in fact I never voted, but when my husband's job depends partially on which party is in the White House...I start to pay attention. Expecially, when the decision will have a small affect on our standard of living and ultimately will impact my kids's lives...I pay attention.

Lately, on XMRadio and other news talk shows I've heard commentary on whether they support or disapprove of John McCain's decision and Sarah Palin's acceptance of the VP nod. Wow, there are some very passionate people out there and some people out there with opinions I agree and disagree with. But ultimately what is being said is just an opinion. I believe we have to take these candidates and layout the resumes and pick the best qualified person for the job. If that means taking away the names and genders and faces of the candidates and making the picks without knowing whose resume belongs to whom, then so be it. Ultimately the best candidates should be obvious, Democrat or Republican. I fully belive that this year's election is more exciting than the election 4 years ago and years previous to that. For me this election may be one of the ones I will remember for years and years to come. I'm getting excited to cast my vote in November and to watch the outcome from that fateful Tuesday night. :-)
