Day 3: Sarah Palin's Speech

I'm going to make this quick since I just got home and need to get to bed to start the process all over again in about 6 hours.

So today was by far the best day of the convention yet! Another long day, but the convention has been incredibly exciting and tonight was a historic moment that I will never forget! Speeches by Meg Whitman, Carly Fiorina, Former Governor Mitt Romney, Former Governor Mike Huckabee and Former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani. Speech of the night was of course Governor Sarah Palin's. What an awesome speech! As a young woman in the Republican party, it gives me great pride to see Governor Palin accepting the Vice-Presidency on the McCain-Palin ticket. She is an awesome person, a true reformer and is going to stand up to Washington, which is exactly what this country needs. Another exciting tidbit was that I was on the floor helping rally the delegates and so was right in the middle of the action during the whole speech. What a night to remember.

Also, following Palin's speech, the states did a roll call and officially nominated Senator John S. McCain as the Republican nominee.

I will update tomorrow night after the convention is over, but this week has been amazing!
