In the aeticle "Palin Hits ‘Change’ Theme and Criticizes Biden" Palin addressed the fact that Obama doesnt always do what he says. After reading the article she had some pretty good points. The fact that Obama's campaign theme is "change" and then elects Biden as his running mate contradict eachother. Biden is a very average normal guy that had been a chairman for all didfferent aspects of government but he has tradtitional views and ideas so how would that pair led to the so called "change" they are promising? Also I thought it was a cool idea that McCain and Palin arrived to speak in Colorado SPrings to the Elvis song "I little less Conversation" it shows that they can add a little fun to a campaign and not just talk at the American people everyday.

I read the article "McCain and Palin Kick Off Post-Convention Tour" it showed how Palin has really boosted the republician party. More people are supporters of Palin than of McCain. At first I thought that was strange but when I kept reading I can totally see why. Ms. Palin is just like an average person. Her family isnt perfect and people can relate to her. They can see themselves in her even though she is a political figure she is down to earth and doesnt feel or act like she is above other American citizens and people trust her judgement. Palin was the best choice McCain could have made with her and her views the democrats have something to worry about.

The last article I read was "Two Rivals, Together on 9/11." The article talked about how the country in times of election are divided republician or democrat but more important than different public views we are one American family.“All of us came together on 9/11, not as Democrats or Republicans, but as Americans,” this quote somes up the whole article for me. I think the joint speech on 9/11 is a great idea and it will bring all Americans even closer. This article made me realize that in the end of the election we will all still be Americans and that this election has gotten blown way out of porportion.
