Sarah Palin, during what was the most important speech of her life, looked straight into the camera and talked to the families of children with special needs. She told us that we would have a friend and advocate in the White House.
In the after speech on-line banter, much of which were criticisms, I got to read things like "that disabled baby" or "that half-dead baby". (Many treated her baby as though he were a vote-getting prop, not even for a moment considering he was a person.)
Those comments themselves were examples of why we need an advocate in the White House. I will go out on a limb and say that you will never, ever see that again from a presidential or vice presidential candidate.
