Larry Johnson’s live radio show is still going, and the conversation is great!
Mark Halperin’s latest post features this great photo of McCain’s surprise appearance on stage with Sarah Palin and her family. Halperin notes, “The crowd roars as McCain steps on stage.”
Halperin also has highlights of Palin’s speech and a link to her prepared speech.
“This is a man who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fighting, and never use the word ‘victory’ except when he’s talking about his own campaign.”
“In politics, there are some candidates who use change to promote their careers. And then there are those, like John McCain, who use their careers to promote change.”
Adds, while referencing her time as mayor of Wasilla, Alaska: “I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a ‘community organizer,’ except that you have actual responsibilities.”
Obama camp responds: Palin’s speech “sounds exactly like the same divisive, partisan attacks we’ve heard from George Bush for the last eight years.” Full statement here.
