Governor Haley

Last night Governor Haley of South Carolina gave the Republican response to Obama's horrible State of the Union Address.  I agree with Charles Krauthamer that it was one of the best response speeches I've heard in a very long while.  She was earnest, smart, strong, and reasoned.  I thought she set just the right tone and said some very logical things.  Of course, some of the right wing kooky zealots like Ann Coulter gave her a bunch of crap because she wasn't "conservative" enough.  She did call out some of the Presidential candidates for being obnoxious jackasses (my words, not hers).  And she's right.  And today as all the media types tried to hype it as much as possible she didn't back down.  Good for her.  If we were to get a reasonable candidate on the top of the ticket, she'd be on the short list for VP!

Here's the speech:
