Republican Party of Louisiana
 
The most important election of our lifetimes is now just two weeks away.  As the race continues to tighten across the country the Republican Party and Republican activists across Louisiana are rallying behind John McCain and Sarah Palin.  Now is the time when each of us must do our part to educate undecided voters and make sure our friends and neighbors show up at the polls on Election Day.  As we prepare for the final push I wanted to share with you some of the great news coming in from the campaigns across the state.

One would think that feminists would be happy that a woman has been nominated for Vice President, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth.  The NOW gang is missing in action when Gov. Palin is attacked for wanting to have a job and a family. (more…)

John McCain has proven once again that he is a true maverick and not afraid to challenge the status quo with a truly remarkable choice for his running mate.  As a conservative woman, I have been following the career of Sarah Palin with interest and pride, often pointing to her as a role model for my own daughter.

Like John McCain, Governor Palin has proven her courage in standing up to corrupt politicians, wasteful spenders, and special interests.  Like John McCain, Governor Palin has even been strong enough to challenge those within our own Party when they do not serve the interests of the voters.

Sarah Palin became Governor by taking down corrupt Republicans in Alaska, and by challenging the incumbent Republican who had forgotten the conservative values that should guide our party.  She is a reformer with solid conservative credentials. She is pro-life, pro-traditional marriage and is a proud supporter of the rights of gun owners.

Most importantly, unlike her counterpart on the Democratic ticket, Governor Palin’s experience isn’t in a broken Washington DC and it isn’t in committee meetings. She has had to make tough decisions and execute those decisions.  Senator Biden has spent decades in Washington, and it doesn’t seem to have improved with his presence there.  Perhaps it’s time we sent a tough woman to do the job. 

I commend Senator McCain for his decision and am excited about the chance to see Governor Sarah Palin here in Minnesota in a few short days.
