Yep, one of my favories.
C-spam is a joke.
On their morning show day after day the rats have literally taken over. Both as guests and on the phone. Looks like the left wing networks have had their say since they fund the pathetic network.
Oh give me a break. She’s an hour away and its been pouring rain all morning. Take your histrionics elsewhere.
Ear Force One

Yep. Fox News had Carl Cameron on for a few minutes before the rally started. He was in the media tents, where it looked like they were packed in like sardines to avoid the rain. I suspect a lot of the crowd is still under shelter.
Eric Golub doing a good job!
Like the comedian’s message....but he sounds like a fag.

I’m ready for Sarah.
The ever present “they”.
Maybe folks were expecting a crowd the size of the Beck/Palin event at the DC mall.
It may happen yet! :-)
lol — Eric Golub: They [libs] treat every criticism like an act of war.
Where’s the best live stream, please???
Can someone with ‘tech’ knowledge tell me if 160mb will be enough to carry 45 minutes of a ‘live’ Feed without going over? My plan will charge 15.00 if I go over
tia
I am here right now, there are a ton of people here... Sure it’s not 15000, but it’s at least 3000, in POURING rain and lightning!
er, favorites, that is....
Speaking about Sarah Palin, he says “what I can’t stand about her is that she’s married to someone who’s not me.” LOL.
Heh. Pretty sure it's okay to be disappointed. Facts are facts. Look at the "crowd."
Thanks for the update from the rally! Keep posting! Would love live posts!
I wish I could help you, Jane. I’m watching on C-SPAN, which isn’t too bad.
If the forecast map is to be believed, your weather there should start clearing in about 15 minutes, and stay clear until after Palin’s finished speaking.
