With just 15 days to go until Election Day, there was a record breaking crowd at Suplizio. According to Mesa County Republicans the rally drew 22,000 people making it the biggest in Grand Junction's history. The speech was only about 15 minutes, but it touched on a variety of issues from energy independence to the economy.

Here is the message I emailed to family and friends———
This is truly awesome. Almost half of the people in Grand Junction came to the Sarah Palin rally. Is it any wonder mainstream media is doing all they can to put her down!!!!!
According to 2006 Census Bureau estimates, the population of the city is 45299. [Grand Junction is the 15th most populous city in the State of Colorado ...
How many folks are attending Joe Biden rallies?????
Obama smokes.
Um...last time I looked, tobacco was still a legal substance.
Agreed 100%.
Yep, My sign was stolen while I was at the rally last night.
Um... Last time I checked, a lot of the Health Nazi’s on the anti-smoking campaign are liberals...
Unfortunately, no. It was heard on a top or bottom of the hour news break for either Rush or Hannity. You could hear the absolute joy in the reporter's voice that he was reporting an Obama report.
Go Sarah!
Maybe they think they'll get lucky. Once you get 30-40 miles inland it's a pretty red state.
Maybe all the coastal commies will stay home thinking it's an Obama lock.
Amen
Do you know when she’s going to be there? I’m in the OC and missed her Carson rally.
Has anybody seen the video of the left wing nut jobs that blocked the Palin motorcade. The police were pulling off the idiots from the middle of the road and throwing them out of the way.
These people looked like they were in a drug induced, psychotic, moonbat trance.
The video is on the CNN website. I don’t know how to attach it here.
Big crowd ping! Palin 22K yesterday.
Obama was in Tampa Bay, directly across the street from the Buccaneers stadium, a city of four million in the Metro area- while Grand Junction is a hundred miles west from Colorado Springs in the middle of the Rockies, population 45K- HALF THE CITY CAME OUT TO SEE HER.
**************************
That’s indicative, along with the SNL ratings being the best in 14 years.
The 45K population number for GJ is misleading. The immediate area has more like 150K. Still, a 22K turnout is superb. If they’d had a bigger venue they would have gotten an even much bigger crowd.
By the way, here's a pic of the Tampa rally yesterday.
Um...(that was cute)AND a lot of ‘Selective conservatives’ here.....not that they’d vote for the Magic Negro, but go into the smoking threads sometimes and get an awakening.
Place: Hilton Hotel
285 E. Hospitality Lane
San Bernardino, CA 92408
When: October 23, 2008
Time: 7:00 p.m. - 9:30 p.m.
I am not sure she is actually going to be there but admission is free and maybe they have video set up. You should make it either way.
Been there, done that. Also, please don't confuse "Republican" with "conservative". More than a few folks who should be in our own camp have their own "pet issues" they want to use Government power to enforce.
Conservatives nominally want to "conserve" our Constitutional Republic and the promise of freedom this Country was founded on. "Republicans" are just as guilty of wanting more government and more power as Democrats are. It's where we came up with the RINO epithet to begin with.
Sound like we're on the same page? ;-)
Yep.
