Statement on Vice Presidential Debate

Tallahassee–Republican Party of Florida Chairman Jim Greer released the following statement today regarding the Vice Presidential Debate between Governor Sarah Palin and Senator Joe Biden:

“Tonight, people in Florida and across our nation learned more about Governor Palin’s real-life results and executive experience. With her signature plain-spoken style, Governor Palin contrasted her record of reform with Joe Biden’s smooth-talking, empty insider rhetoric, and the difference between them couldn’t have been clearer.

“Along with John McCain, Sarah Palin has clear convictions and knows what Americans want and deserve in our leaders: reform, a shake-up of the status quo, and bold leadership to get our economy back on track.

“Tonight, Governor Palin further energized Floridians by articulating her executive experience in an energy producing state, and talking about her strong support of international free trade, alternative energy and lower taxes for families and businesses - McCain-Palin policies that are critical to Florida’s economic prosperity.”

“Governor Palin laid out her vision to shake up Washington with John McCain, and we are more ready than ever to fight in Florida to send this team of mavericks to the White House to get to work for America.”
