September 3, 2008 - VP, Acceptance Speech, GOP Convention
Michael Reagan, "Welcome Back Dad" Excerpt:
I’ve been trying to convince my fellow conservatives that they have been wasting their time in a fruitless quest for a new Ronald Reagan to emerge and lead our party and our nation. I insisted that we’d never see his like again because he was one of a kind.
I was wrong!
"Wednesday night I watched the Republican National Convention on television and there, before my very eyes, I saw my Dad reborn; only this time he's a she.
And what a she!
In one blockbuster of a speech, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin resurrected my Dad’s indomitable spirit and sent it soaring above the convention center, shooting shock waves through the cynical media’s assigned spaces and electrifying the huge audience with the kind of inspiring rhetoric we haven’t heard since my Dad left the scene.

All of us were drenched from on-and-off rainstorms that passed through the area. But, when Gov. Palin got on stage and was with us, the sun came out.
All 2,000 of us who were there have our stories and precious memories. Here is mine:
Iowa Was About Special Moments, Not Mere Politics
