I am looking for evidence she's maintained her appeal beyond the base. I see large crowds for Obama, too.

Two points.

First, Palin is the VP on ticket, which is usually ignored.

(Joe "Walking Gaffe" Biden certainly is. Look at the union shirts in the crowd.

Second, didn't Obama give hotel and travel vouchers for his supporters in California to travel to Elko, NM to swell the size of the crowd there?

Palin's enthusiastic crowds are genuine.

Good God, Biden is awful. I can't imagine getting up the enthusiasm to see him in action. Zzzzzzz.

I'd be interested in any articles comparing Obama's crowd sizes now to in months past. Interesting how his use of the Teleprompter is treated like a nice human interest story.

Watch the Florida rally Sunday in The Villages. FL GOP had 30,000 tickets for the event, and they were all gone yesterday.

Palin doesn’t seem to be wearing thin to me, but the Dem talking point that her popularity is on the wane, picked up and regurgitated by the drive-by media, is wearing very thin.
