Sarah Palin strikes back at critics

A Brit reporter’s take on last night’s speech by Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin. It’s a great read! An excerpt:

From the moment she walked on stage in this cavernous bear pit, bandbox smart in cream jacket, trim black skirt and black heels, she proved that John McCain knew exactly what he was doing when he picked her as running mate.

Hair piled into a slight beehive – more Sarah White House than Amy Winehouse – she blinked and smiled behind her geeky spectacles as the vast crowd went ballistic.

She’s a moose-hunting mum of five with a sledge-load of problems behind her own front door that workaday Americans can relate to.
