Sarah Palin's Love Hate Media Relationship

Bad or good, the media is still as enthralled with Sarah Palin as it was this time last year...plus one month almost to the day. Now we watch as she seems to be going through a love/hate relationship with the media. She needs the media to help get her message out, but how very cruel the media has been to her and her family! I did the following post on MTP on August 29th, 2008...interesting to read and remember the day McCain surprised America by choosing her as his running mate.

On her wedding anniversary, and on McCain's birthday, and the week we celebrate the anniversary of woman winning the right to vote, a woman, Gov. Sarah Palin of Alaska is declared the Republican Vice Presidential candidate. The speech she gave clearly showed her strength.

We have a lot to get to know about this woman, but we also know quite a bit. She has a son headed for Iraq who joined the military on September 11th...is it too much to ask that the hurricane headed for the gulf coast might push the Republican Convention up a week so it's on the 9/11 anniversary? Maybe...I'd rather our friends in the south be safe! But I digress, Sarah gave birth to a child with Down's Syndrome, as a sister to a brother who is disabled, this means something to me in a way it wouldn't unless you've "been there". In between these two children she has 3 other wonderful children and a husband who is a wonderful "regular" guy. How American can you get? No fireworks, no celebrities, just down home America in Ohio today, and quite a crowd, too! Way to go, McCain! I am finally excited about voting for my party again...not that I wasn't going to, this has just added a whole new energy to the ticket. I hope nothing happens to upset that.


I was looking for a video of her speech, and will add it when I find it, but in the meantime, I found a few others that I'll post for now.
