Republican Convention

[Undertoad]

Many people are rating Palin higher than I did for her attack dog parts, which I felt were mixed. I also faulted her for her accent, which I found a little annoying and nasal at times, but that's probably not fair. Now this gets floated:

Halfway through Sarah Palin's speech tonight at the RNC, people following the speech noticed she was deviating from the prepared text.

According to sources close to the McCain campaign, the teleprompter continued scrolling during applause breaks. As a result, half way through the speech, the speech had scrolled significantly from where Governor Palin was in the speech. The malfunction also occurred during Rudy Giuliani's speech, explaining his significant deviations from his speech.

It's possible - I don't know where the deviations are.

I also thought she was a bit too factually weak, but I didn't take points off from Obama for that sort of thing. My meter may be a little off.
