(A team of Sun reporters is at the Republican National Convention this week in St. Paul.)

ST. PAUL, Minn. — VP nominee Sarah Palin wasn’t kidding when she said the only difference between hockey moms and pit bulls was the hockey moms wore lipstick.

Here’s what she had to say about Harry Reid.

“Harry Reid, the Majority Leader of the current do-nothing Senate, not long ago summed up his feelings about our nominee. He said, quote, ‘I can't stand John McCain.’ Ladies and gentlemen, perhaps no accolade we hear this week is better proof that we've chosen the right man. Clearly what the Majority Leader was driving at is that he can't stand up to John McCain. That is only one more reason to take the maverick of the Senate and put him in the White House.”
