In today's UK Times, Camille Paglia states that this is "the best political speech I have ever seen delivered by an American woman politician. Palin is as tough as nails."

Update: I've watched this five or six times and each time when I get to the part where Palin begins praising McCain, I think, "The Democrats are so screwed. Thank God she's on our side."

Update 2: Also check out this video at another Palin blog, showing her on Charlie Rose.
