I know some of you must be watching her speech right now at the Nashville convention.

I’m sure those who hate her are hating what they’re hearing from her now — or how she’s saying it — and those who love her are loving her now.

I can’t help but think of her Republican convention speech. More than a year and thensome later, she’s showing the same charm and verve and love of country that got people’s attention in the first place. The woman has talent in giving voice to some real concerns in a way that resonates with people who have been discouraged and disengaged. And the way she frames it, it’s actually not about her. The most important part of her speech tonight, I think, will prove to be what she said about personality: Politics can never be about a person. Not Barack Obama. Not Ronald Reagan. Not even Scott Brown. Not even Sarah Palin. It’s about ideas. Brown got elected on them. Marco Rubio’s running on them. Their trucks and looks may help, but it’s the ideas.

I did some Tweeting on this, too.

Anyway, it’s not over, but it’s a good speech that highlights her talents.
