Millerick: ‘One reformer’ in VP debate
By Brian Lawson, PolitickerNH.com ReporterJayne Millerick, John McCain's campaign state vice-chair, said Sarah Palin demonstrated her record of reform during the vice-presidential debate against Joe Biden.
"There was one reformer on the stage Thursday who has a record of delivering change -- Sarah Palin. And there was one veteran Senator who has a record of delivering empty rhetoric, and that was Joe Biden," Millerick said in a statement.
Millerick added, "Bottom line, Governor Palin demonstrated she's an outsider who isn't afraid to break any china in Washington and Joe Biden was revealed as a by-product of Washington's 'me first, country second' political culture."

NHGOP: out of touch.
Former one term NHGOP Chairman (she's the one who was in office while Benson was Governor) Jayne Millerick embarasses herself with such statements.
All Palin proved last night was that she could repeat talking points and say irritating things like "you betcha" over and over.
Palin last night proved to America that McCain cannot be trusted to serve as president of the US.
It is frightening to think that woman could end up running the free world.
What I saw.....
What I saw was an invaluable Statesman in Sen Biden!
He isn't a reformer because no one listened to him when he was right!
He said don't go into Iraq thinking it will be over and done quickly! McCain said, no, it's ok, we will be in and out faster than the first time!
Sen Obama saw the writing on the wall with the banking markets, no one listened to him. Even Sen McCain admits after 26 years in Washington he does not understand the economy, or computers or the internet!
When Sen Obama is elected we will see real reform!
Doggone it, Jane - there you
Doggone it, Jane - there you go again!
Sarah Failin'
Almost all "politicians" getting into elected office for their first couple of years are "reformers." The true reformers are those who hang in there through the years and stick to their ideals, continuing to try to make reform against entrenched interests.
Sarah Failin' hasn't shown that yet. And we've seen many examples of the way John McCain doesn't have that idealism any more if he ever did -- proven by the 90% of the number of times he's voted "with" George W. Bush during the past eight years -- by his own admission.
I will add that I've seldom met a "Joe Sixpack" who I didn't like.

THE REAL TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
Governor Sarah Palin did an awesome job at her VP debate and put Senator Biden in check and forced him to come out with many gaffs. Of course we all know under pressure Biden can not tell the truth and like our Former Governor Jean Shaheen he will tax us out of our homes.
Hmmm, I will just touch on one area of the Democrats hero Senator Biden. He has been a Senator for almost 36 years, took the oath to defend and protect the constitution many times but yet he does not even have a clue on what article 1 is. He claimed at the debate article 1 dealt with the duties of the Vice President, If I am not mistaken there is only one line there about the VP and nothing about the duties of the VP but article 1 does talk about the legislation.
It’s great to be an American where we can agree to disagree, so when you get a chance thank all those Veterans out there who protect your FREEDOMS.
I think the Democrats need to wake up and smell the coffee! Can anyone tell me what credentials Barack Hussein Obama has? What has he accomplished besides using loop holes to take out his competition and let's not forget his association with criminals?
I hope the pressure does not get to him and he goes back to Crack Cocaine, yes he is a real intelligent guy, an example that you might want for your kids, not me.
Senator Barack Hussein Obama credentials and judgment is in question and like many Obama Pied Piper followers, they really do not have a clue on what Obama will do to our economy and not to forget what he will do to our military with his cut and run, white flag mentality.
If you need to see for yourself the truth about the Democrats, here is a couple of you tube sites to help you out on why we have to bailout Wall Street.
