A Home Run

The Vice-Presidential nominee for the Republican Party, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, spoke at the convention tonight (September 3) , and made a wonderful impression on the conventioneers, and likely on the voters as well. Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who made the keynote speech just before Governor Palin's, was also very effective in his own inimitable way. (By contrast, the Democratic campaign's rejoinder sounded a mite ill-humored.)

Tomorrow it will be Senator John McCain's turn to speak at the convention.

(P.S. I said before that I have been trying to keep politics out of this blog. But really it's quite difficult not to get caught up in the excitement of it. After all, that's what this country is all about, and there's such a lot at stake.)
