"I had the privilege of living most of my life in a small town. I was just your average hockey mom, and signed up for the PTA because I wanted to make my kids' public education better. When I ran for city council, I didn't need focus groups and voter profiles because I knew those voters, and knew their families, too. Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska, I was mayor of my hometown. And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involves. I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a community organizer, except that you have actual responsibilities."Credit Jim Geraghty with that last line.
And this one:
"Here's how I look at the choice Americans face in this election. In politics, there are some candidates who use change to promote their careers. And then, there are those, like John McCain, who use their careers to promote change."It's gonna be good.
