Palin's Amazing Speech

Here's a couple of great speeches yesterday at the GOP Convention (in case you missed it...you need to see it):





Palin's speech was masterful! Apparently, she winged a lot of it. It will be interesting to see where she goes from here. I can't wait to see on her on the campaign trail and take down Biden at the VP debate!

This is what Dr. Helen has to say about the criticisms of Sarah Palin:

If Palin were a Democrat, we would not be having this national conversation about her children, her ability to mother and the other dirt that the MSM is flinging against her. Instead, the media would hail her as a hero, a role model for young girls and beyond reproach. The hypocrisy is staggering.

Which David Will it Be?

Who would you really buy an album from? The boring, yet adorable, "oh-gosh" Archuleta? Or the full-of-energy, rocking Cook?

If Archuleta does win, he will go down in the books with the likes of Taylor Hicks and Ruben Studdard. He's just not ready for the likes of mega-musicians; he is way too timid for success. Cook, on the other hand, is creative, innovative, and bold. As Randy likes to keep saying, he is ready to make an album.

MTV has some highlights of last night's show.
