MCCAIN AND HIS RUNNING MATE, ALASKA GOVERNOR SARAH PALIN, CHOSE THE MILWAUKEE SUBURB OF CEDARBURG FOR THEIR FIRST BIG PUSH FOR VOTES. SUPPORTERS CAME OUT TO SEE THE SO-CALLED “STRAIGHT TALK EXPRESS” IN DROVES…

TAKE PKG

NATS Please welcome Gov. Sarah Palin, Mrs Cindy McCain, and the next president of the United States, John McCain.

THE MCCAIN PALIN TICKET CAME TO CEDARBURG RIDING HIGH ON THE EXCITEMENT OF THE REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION, AND THE NOMINATION OF JOHN MCCAIN FOR PRESIDENT. HIS RUNNING MATE – SARAH PALIN -CALLED THE MILWAUKEE SUBURB THE RIGHT CHOICE TO KICK THINGS OFF.

Palin:( 21:05:35) So it fits that we came right from that convention to small town America.

BOTH REPUBLICANS HAD HIGH PRAISES FOR THE OTHER. PALIN PUSHED McCAIN’S REPUTATION IN THE SENATE — WHILE HE EXPRESSED EXCITEMENT ABOUT THE SURPRISE RUNNING MATE CHOICE HE WANTS TO SEE BECOME THE FIRST FEMALE VICE PRESIDENT.

McCain:( 21:17:02) And I’m happy to be introduced by her, and I can’t wait to introduce her to Washington, D.C.

Palin:(21:12:58) John McCain doesn’t run with the Washington herd, and that’s only one reason to put the “maverick of the senate: in the White House.

THE REPUBLICAN NOMINEE TOUCHED ON A NUMBER OF ISSUES FROM HIS THURSDAY NIGHT SPEECH AT THE CONVENTION — INCLUDING COMPARING HIS POLICIES AND SENATE EXPERIENCE TO BARACK OBAMA’S.

THE ARIZONA SENATOR TOLD SUPPORTERS THAT THE NATION WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT THROUGH WHAT HE CALLED TOUGH TIMES.

McCain:(21:23:37) My friends, Americans are ambitious by nature, It’s tough and it’s hard. We’ve faced challenges before. We can do this, and we will do this, and don’t believe those who tell you that we can’t.

McCain:(21:25:21) I’ve reached out my hand to those on the other side of the aisle to work for a common good. Senator Obama never has.

BUT OBAMA CAMPAIGN ADVISERS SAY THE DEMOCRAT HAS PLENTY OF EXPERIENCE, AND WILL BRING NATIONAL UNITY.

GIBBS: Barack Obama has the judgment and the temperament and the skill to bring this country together and to work across party lines because he’s done it in every job he’s had.

THE REPUBLICAN TICKET TRIED TO PROMOTE OPTIMISM AND CHANGE WHILE SPEAKING TO A CROWD OF MORE THAN ONE-THOUSAND PEOPLE IN THE STREETS.

THE ARIZONA SENATOR TOLD SUPPORTERS THAT THE NATION WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT THROUGH WHAT HE CALLED TOUGH TIMES.

McCain:(21:23:37) My friends, Americans are ambitious by nature, It’s tough and it’s hard. We’ve faced challenges before. We can do this, and we will do this, and don’t believe those who tell you that we can’t.
