VP hopeful Paul Ryan energizes Moon crowd with campaign appearance

Selena Zito

Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan made a mid-morning stop in Moon Saturday between stops in Florida and Ohio 17 days before the Nov 6 election.

Ryan made a dramatic entry, walking onto the stage right off the plane saying, “we are going to win Pennsylvania, and we are going to win this election.”

Enthusiastic supporters twirled yellow Romney-Ryan towels in Terrible Towel fashion.

It was the first visit to the region by a candidate from either party since August.

....

Before Ryan arrived, area Democrats conducted a rally in support or President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign. They spoke near the War Memorial Fountain at the Airside Business Park, several hundred yards from the hangar where Ryan was to appear.

....

About 20 people attended the event conducted by area Democrats. The Secret Service estimated Ryan attracted about 1,000 people.

LOL!

I thought it was a spoof and you’d “shopped” the sign but the jokes on me, it’s a real town.

Love that flying saucer, is that the town square or a park?

Got me, too. Real town!
Love it, “I’m from Mars”!

How many electoral votes on the moon?

That's Moon Saturday..... or at least that's the terminology used Zelena.

That’s the town square, but the saucer isn’t always there, it moves around!

That's proof that there's aliens, the saucer has to have a pilot and the kicker is the owner of the hardware store, he's their interpreter. :-)

The Obama people were either still asleep, hungover or it was too early for people on food stamps.

Might be a good idea to go to Apollo (Pa) too!

Yep!, celebrate the moon landing every year, parade, and fireworks too..

I went to one of those celebrations years ago! Great fireworks! I’m in Indiana, Pa so not too far away!

Pretty cool—waving Terrible Towels with the Romney Ryan names on them.
