Palin Speaks To Investors In Hong Kong

by Mark McDonald - September 23, 2009 - New York Times

A number of people who heard the speech in a packed hotel ballroom, which was closed to the media, said Mrs. Palin spoke from notes for 90 minutes and that she was articulate, well-prepared and even compelling.

“The speech was wide-ranging, very balanced, and she beat all expectations... ”

Another quote from Doug A. Coulter, head of private equity in the Asia-Pacific region for LGT Capital Partners, is I think the most compelling, "She didn’t sound at all like a far-right-wing conservative. She seemed to be positioning herself as a libertarian or a small-c conservative... "

That is what so many missed during the constant slander thrown at Palin during the campaign. She was never the extreme conservative she was portrayed as. She is a libertarian and extremely ethical. She is also very bright. It is those attributes that cause Democrats to go crazy when she speaks. That is America today... and Democrats hate it.
