Our character is often judged by the very "first impression" we make on others.  Giving us that one chance to show others the true fabric of our being.  But how many times have we heard that you can't judge a book by it's cover?  Many right!  Seems like a double standard to me. 

I used to think that I was a pretty good judge of character until recently when I witnessed first hand, the true nature of certain folks' personalities which left me shaking my head in disbelief.  You ever meet anybody like that?  Someone who comes across as being one way and in time proves to be the total opposite.  The thing that's interesting about that is once you put it out there, once you make that "first impression", it's done.  There's no changing it.  No matter how much you'd like to.  Have you ever said or done something in the past that may have given the wrong impression to others and wished you could have that moment back?  I certainly have! 

Politicians often excel at making good "first impressions" because they may only have that one chance to connect with you in order to convince you to vote in their favor.  In the weeks ahead, we'll come to know each of the presidential candidates and their perspective running mates a little better.  It will be interesting to know how much (if at all) of our "first impressions" of them will change by November 4th. 

How many democrats will vote for McCain because of Obama's race?  How many democrats won't vote at all because of Obama's race and inexperience.  How many Hillary supporters will vote for McCain because of Palin?  How many democrats will vote for Obama because of Biden?  How many Hillary supporters won't vote at all.  How many McCain supporters will vote for Obama because of Palin?  How many McCain supporters won't vote at all because of Palin?  How many republicans won't vote at all because of McCain?

My "first impression" of Governor Sarah Palin is that, in spite of her lack of experience in Washington, she is a tenacious politician who brings some (much needed) new energy to the Republican campaign.  Will it be enough to win over those Clinton supporters?  It's doubtful but only time will tell.  Surely the Republican party didn't gamble this whole election on her selection as VP?  They wouldn't do that...would they?
