Palin: “It is so great to be here in GRAND Rapids.” (CEDAR Rapids, Iowa appearance)

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Absolutely high-larious account of today's Iowa campaign appearance!

"Iowa Independent’s John Deeth is at the Cedar Rapids airport liveblogging events at the John McCain-Sarah Palin rally. Anti-war protesters briefly disrupted the event and while John McCain adapted, Sarah Palin stuck to the speech.

8:57 and it’s taken me this long to get seated after running the line of shuttle buses and security sweeping. Parking is all at the east end of the airport, and a dozen or so buses are shuttling folks to the west side of the airport, where the private and FedEx hangars that most folks don’t usually see are located.

About five security stations are sweeping people. I kept beeping, and wondered if the detectors were set to extra sensitive for liberal bias. Turns out I’d left my flash drive in my pocket.

There’s a definite made-for-TV feel here, as is inherent in an airport rally. Land, speak, off to the next (in this case, that’s Minnesota). Print and radio press are off to the side and can’t see the stage. “Obstructed view” if you were going to a ballgame or concert. I’ll make sure to reposition.

LOL!

"Now that they’re here, I’m herded back into the press corrall by a self-important volunteer. Oh, I can interact with the crowd — as long as I’m escorted. The intern sees me writing this, starts to panic, and goes to get someone. Let’s see where he goes with this."

...:rofl:

Guess she is no American geography expert either! LOL

:rofl:

Good move, Sarah! :thumbsup:

What a dimwit.

Before she gets there? Idiots.

and it's NEVER great to be there.

I haven't seen any video of them doing so.

I mean, COME ON! Can she not even read her dang speech? Or see that she is in IOWA, and not MICHIGAN??

We Iowans don't like stupid Republicans, especially in Eastern Iowa. This sank her and McCain.
