Giuliani Part 3: Palin is more experienced than Dem. ticket


(NECN: St. Paul, MN) - Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani spoke Wednesday during the Republican National Convention.

Giuliani says that McCain would "enlarge the party", and is the real candidate of bipartisan cooperation.

He said that when he chose Palin to be vice president, he chose the future. "Gov. Palin represents a new generation. She's already one of the most successful governors in America - and the most popular. And she already has more executive experience than the entire Democratic ticket."

BELOW IS PART 3 OF RUDY GIULIANI'S SPEECH AT THE RNC:

Like Ronald Reagan, John McCain will enlarge our party. He's the candidate with the real record of bipartisan cooperation. He's the candidate who can credibly reach out for the votes of Independents and Democrats. In choosing Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate, John McCain has chosen the future. Gov. Palin represents a new generation. She's already one of the most successful governors in America - and the most popular. And she already has more executive experience than the entire Democratic ticket. She's led a city

and a state. She's reduced taxes and government spending. And she's actually done something about moving America toward energy independence - taking on the oil companies while encouraging more energy exploration here at home. Taxpayers have an advocate in Sarah Palin - she even sold the former governor's private plane on E-Bay. And as a former U.S. attorney, I am impressed by her success in combating corruption - when she found unethical and illegal behavior among the power-brokers of her own party, she did not hesitate - she acted courageously and independently. That's the kind of reformer we need - she shook up Alaska. She'll shake up Washington. And we sure need that. And as we look to the future never let us forget that - when we are at our best - we are the party that expands freedom. We began as a party dedicated to freeing people from slavery ... And we are still the party that is willing to fight for freedom at home and around the world. We are the party that wants to expand individual freedom and economic freedom ... because we believe that the secret of America's success is not central government, it is self-government. We are the party that believes in giving workers the right to work. The party that believes parents should choose where their children go to school. And we are the party that believes unapologetically in America's essential greatness - that we are a shining city on the hill, a beacon of freedom that inspires people everywhere to reach for a better world. So my fellow Republicans and my fellow Americans - over the next eight weeks, remember that the results of this election are in your hands. You get to determine America's future. You can decide America's direction. Thank you very much. And God Bless America.
