Why I am voting for Sarah Palin..and McCain too

I've had a few posts that talk about why I am not voting for the other guy. Let me explain why I am voting for McCain-Palin at a high level.

First, let me say in my humble opinion I think Palin will be a great VP and can be a good president. She is a leader. She has made tough decisions. She has stood up for what she thought was right. I admire her drive and demeanor. She has been under a lot of fire and handles it with grace. Sure, she's made some trips, but she is better every time she gets out there. She made it to where she is not by calling in political favors or playing along with the machine, but by being a leader. This country could sure use some common sense in the leadership. Some people may say she has a funny voice, but I like it! She is real.

I have faith in McCain-Palin will say no to unnecessary spending AND be able to articulate it to the public.

McCain has fought for this country. To me a commander in chief that has been in the trenches has a lot to offer when it comes to making military decisions. He understands the importance of the treaties we have with our allies and that there are countries that take advantage of our wallets while they have their hands out for our money. He understands that there are leader out there that seek to destroy us and the liberties we hold dear and I believe he will stand up to them and protect this country. He doesn't tell people what they want to hear. He calls it as he sees it. I trust that McCain can make that split second decision that leaders need to make from time to time. He is real.
