Sarah Palin /

Here’s her speech. And here’s some video from an interview with Newsweek earlier this year. And nice, detailed piece on her from the Anchorage Daily news from 2006.
And then there’s this cute/funny tribute by my friend @ PragmaticallyPolitical: 10 Things I Love About Sarah Palin
PS The graceless statement put out by the Obama camp re: Palin this morning was uncalled for. McCain went out of his way to congratulate Obama on a historic nomination last night; Obama should have done the same for Palin. But he didn’t. And so Mr. Self-Proclaimed Non-Partisan shows us just how little class he really has.

James Poulos has an interesting piece re: Veep picks up on Culture11 today. As a result of his column, and a few others I’ve read, I’ve revised my opinion about the Biden pick.
To say Biden is either a Terrible or Genius pick implies that the choice mattered, which – in this unique election year – it really did not.
Obama’s candidacy is so historic, his political chronicle so polarizing, and his persona so massive, that Biden is quite beside the point. Obama could have chosen just about anyone; November’s result will turn on other realities.
