Does PBS simulcast on NPR? SU doesn't have a TV so he was probably listening.

Um...he said he heard it on NPR, not PBS.

When she assumed the role of Wasilla's Boss Hogg, she shut down the Boars Nest and ensured that the law finally caught up to Bo and Luke.

Impressive speech, definitely threw some punches, the Dems need to be cautious counter-punching. Then again, if she is the attack dog, and the commercials respond to her, SHE becomes the candidate. Could get interesting.

But the age difference... she makes John look like he's 115 years old.

LOL. She speant the next 10-15 minutes outlining her accomplishments as both mayor and governor. And yes, contrasting that with Obama's TOTAL lack of any accomplishments.

By the way, I hope Obama runs an ad about what he did do as a community organizer. I have a hard time believing the Republicans mocked his time spent in that role.
Me too. I'd love to hear what it was. I have yet to hear ANYTHING the dude has actually accomplished that would make me think he's prepared to be the leader of the free world. Please, enlighten me!

Hold on. This isnt the first time people have heard something three times and not understood it. See also, 3 Ne 11.

I am reading the transcripts on CNN. For a party that wants four more years of the same, I find it strange that nobody has mentioned Bush's name even once. Reagan over and over, but no Bush.
