Fedele announces state's vote

Lt. Gov. Michael Fedele checks in:

Things are rocking in St. Paul, Lt. Gov. Michael Fedele said Thursday. After Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin's speech, Republicans were pretty energized and excited, he said.

Fedele continued to say that Palin did a great job showing that she is confident being a vice presidential nominee. She showed she was qualified and ready to take on any one, he said.

"She had to lay all her chips on the table," Fedele said.

And she did just that.

Palin was sincere about special needs, and her speech reinforced that she is just a regular person trying to make a difference, Fedele said.

"She's just a normal person--a mom," he said, adding that Palin was quick on her feet, using humor during her speech that was not in the script.

Fedele should know. From where he was sitting, he could see the teleprompter.

Thursday evening was also exciting for Fedele for another reason. The lieutenant governor had the honor of announcing Connecticut's delegate votes during the roll call.
