"Mother, moose hunter, maverick" - Convention to air Palin biography video tonight

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/09/04/convention-to-air-palin-biography-video/



(CNN) – A video highlighting Republican VP candidate Sarah Palin's biography and record as Alaska's governor is set to air at the party's convention Thursday night, senior McCain aides tell CNN.

The three-minute video was originally slated to air Wednesday night before Palin's speech at the convention but was postponed due to time constraints. McCain aides said the video makes a "compelling" case for why John McCain chose Palin as his running mate.

"Mother, moose hunter, maverick," the video's narrator states. “Mayor, governor, maverick. The original maverick made an astute choice when he asked Governor Palin to join him in his effort to remake Washington.

"Alaska, a far corner of America that accounts for 20 percent of our domestic oil, has produced a remarkable woman who's never been afraid to put her city, state, or country first — regardless of consequences," the narrator continues.

3. Is being a "moose hunter" that big a deal in Alaska?
The things walk down the street and up on your lawn like a big dumb friendly cow. I'd be almost ashamed to shoot one.

5. It's always about the oil. Alaska is a state of
vast natural beauty but Palin is blind to it. All she wants to do is destroy pristine wilderness for profit. She disgusts me. And I really think the picture below is more appropriate as an example of Sarah's real interest in Alaska's wildlife. She's a piece of work.
